10 Tips for a Smooth Ryde and North West Sydney Move

After thousands of moves through Ryde and North West Sydney — these are the actions that make the biggest difference on move day.

  • Book Rhodes and Meadowbank dock windows as early as possibleRhodes and Meadowbank buildings have extremely high concurrency of moves — dock windows fill weeks in advance. Book your window the day your move date is confirmed.

  • Confirm which building manager to contact

    Many Rhodes and Meadowbank towers are managed by different strata firms. Get the building manager’s direct contact and confirm in writing.

  • Use a 3-person team for Rhodes apartments

    Limited dock time windows mean a 3-person team significantly increases your chance of completing within your allocation.

  • Plan around Meadowbank Road and Victoria Road peak trafficThese are two of Sydney’s most congested roads during peak hours. We plan all Ryde corridor moves around 9.30am+ start times.

  • Book Epping apartment lifts in advance

    Epping’s apartment towers have the same access requirements as CBD buildings. Secure your lift window as soon as your date is confirmed.

  • Label boxes by floor and room

    Ryde corridor apartments often have storage on separate floors. Floor and room labels prevent boxes going to the wrong location.

  • Consider a mid-week move

    Meadowbank and Rhodes have noticeably less dock competition on weekdays. Mid-week moves have far more scheduling flexibility.

  • Declutter before moving from a compact apartmentRhodes and Meadowbank apartments are typically compact. Moving only what you need is especially important.

  • Have everything packed before your start time

    With tight dock windows, unpacked rooms on move morning cause serious problems. Every box sealed and labelled in advance.

  • Use Hire A Box for delivered boxes

    Hire A Box delivers flat-packed boxes to all Ryde and North West Sydney suburbs.
