Moving in Runcorn
Runcorn is a townhouse-heavy suburb. At the 2021 Census about seven in ten homes were separate houses and three in ten were townhouses or semis, with almost no apartments. Townhouse complexes mean shared driveways, visitor bays and body corporate rules. Many houses are on standard suburban blocks with good street access. The Queensland State Archives building is on Compton Road, and Bulimba Creek, whose secondary source rises within the suburb, gives some streets a leafy backdrop. Most moves are local families shifting between townhouses and houses in the area.
Smaller trucks for complexes, larger for houses
Inside a townhouse complex, a smaller truck is often the only practical option, and it makes parking near your door much easier. For houses, a larger truck usually means fewer trips. Our trucks carry a walkboard (ramp), a hydraulic platform lift, or both. Beenleigh Road and Warrigal Road get busy at peak times, so we'll plan your start time to suit.
Your nearest depot
Our Mt Gravatt depot is about 13 minutes from Runcorn, so our crews know the local streets and can be with you early in the day. Not sure which depot is closest to you? Try our depot finder.
We also move homes in nearby Sunnybank, Eight Mile Plains and Calamvale.
