Packing Tips for Your Paddington Move

  1. Start Early and Stay Organised: Packing always takes longer than you expect. Begin early and start with one room at a time. Label your boxes clearly so unpacking is straightforward. Trust us, future you will thank you for knowing where the kettle is on day one.
  2. Declutter: Moving’s the perfect time to sort through your things. Got clothes or items you haven’t used in a year? Donate or sell them. Less stuff means fewer boxes, less stress, less costs and more space in your new home.
  3. Fragile Items Deserve Special Attention: Pack dishes and glassware with plenty of padding. Bubble wrap is your friend, but dish towels, blankets, and clothing can also protect your fragile items while saving space.
  4. The Essentials Box: Keep one box for essentials you’ll need right away. It should have chargers, basic toiletries, some clothes, and any important documents. This “first-day” box will keep you sane during your first night in the new place.

Payment Terms

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Many Paddington homes are traditional character houses on sloping blocks with external stairs and narrow street frontage, and DNS crews carry, wrap and load around that every week. Tell the team about stairs, tight driveways and the parking situation near Latrobe Terrace when you book, so the right truck and crew size are allocated.
A 2-bedroom Paddington home usually takes 3 to 5 hours with a crew of two, and a 3-bedroom house 4 to 6 hours, though these are typical ranges only and the real time depends on access (stairs, lifts, parking, long carries) and how ready the home is, which is why DNS quotes before the move and the estimate is not a fixed cap. Stairs and a long carry to the truck are what move that estimate most.

You pay an hourly rate for the crew and truck, quoted before the move, and every fee including the call-out fee and any heavy-item surcharge is confirmed up front. The final cost depends on the size of the home, the access at both addresses and any packing required. Call 1300 379 302 or use the online quote form for a figure matched to your home.
