Relocating in Albion, QLD? Optimove’s Albion removalists service is designed to make your move easy and efficient. Albion is a dynamic inner-north Brisbane suburb, blending heritage charm with modern development. This area has a diverse range of homes and businesses, from the historic Albion Hotel to the new apartment complexes around Albion train station. We have extensive experience moving clients in Albion and neighbouring suburbs like Clayfield, Ascot, and Lutwyche, giving us insight into the local logistics (traffic patterns, parking, etc.). Whether it’s a household move or an office relocation, our professional team is ready to assist.

One hallmark of Albion is its mix of old and new. You might be in a classic Queenslander on hills like Albion’s north end, or in a sleek unit in the Albion Mill precinct. Each type of move brings different challenges – old homes may have tight staircases and delicate fixtures, while new units might involve lift bookings and loading docks. Optimove is adept at both. We’ve moved antique furniture out of pre-war Albion cottages and successfully transported it with no damage. We’ve orchestrated multi-stop moves for modern apartments, dealing with body corporate requirements and basement carpark access. Our local knowledge ensures we anticipate what your move will need. (For example, we know Albion can get busy around Kingsford Smith Drive or Sandgate Road during rush hour, so we often schedule around those times to keep things on track.)

Frequently Asked Questions

Traffic in Albion can be busy. Will that affect my move?

We account for traffic in our planning. Albion is close to major roads like Lutwyche Road, Sandgate Road, and Kingsford Smith Drive, which can get congested at certain times. When you book, we’ll discuss timing – for example, avoiding peak hour if possible when crossing the city or using the tunnels to save time (note: we cover standard tolls as part of logistics if it significantly speeds up the move). Our drivers use GPS with real-time traffic updates to steer clear of accidents or heavy congestion. If a delay does occur beyond our control, our team lead will inform you immediately. The actual moving of your items won’t be affected – they’ll be safe on the truck during transit. We pad the schedule a bit for possible traffic when giving you time estimates, so usually, we still finish within the expected window.

Do you provide insurance for items during the move?

Yes, we have transit insurance for your belongings and public liability insurance. This means if any of your items are damaged due to our handling or an accident during transit, you can be compensated (terms apply, but essentially you’re covered for the most common issues). We take great care to prevent any damage in the first place – using proper packing, tying down items in the truck, and driving cautiously. However, it’s good to know there’s a safety net. For extremely high-value items, you might consider additional coverage or notifying us so we can give them extra-special handling. Also, if you’re moving items of extraordinary value (artwork, collectibles), let us know – sometimes these might require specialised insurance or crate packing. But for standard household and office content, our included insurance has you covered while we move you.

Can you disconnect and reconnect appliances or electronics?

We can handle basic disconnections and reconnections. For example, we can disconnect your washing machine (ensure water is off and detach the hose) and reconnect it at the new place. We can unplug and pack your fridge, and on the other end, position it and plug it in (remember to wait a bit before turning it on, if it was laid down – but we usually keep fridges upright). For electronics like TVs, home theatres, computers: we’ll unplug everything carefully and pack the cables with the device. At the new home, we can set up the TV on its stand and plug in the basics. We might not program everything (like tuning TVs or setting up Wi-Fi printers) – that’s usually best done by you or a tech specialist – but we’ll get the hardware in place. For appliances that are hardwired (like an oven or dishwasher) or involve plumbing (fridges with water dispensers), you’ll need a licensed tradesperson. We won’t fiddle with electrical wiring or plumbing beyond standard plug-in connections. But we’ll certainly move those appliances and place them for the pros to connect. Just let us know what appliances you have so we can bring any needed tools (we have basic spanners, screwdrivers, etc., for disconnecting washers and such).

My partner and I have just used Optimove removals for a double move – stuff out of my house to storage whilst another truck at his place to bring his furniture and belongings to here and more to storage. We went with them based on price and a promise of ‘great care’

The removalist service has been fantastic. The boys all moved fast on both crews, were so easy to deal with, and I’ll be honest I can’t remember the last time I saw everything plastic and or blanket wrapped so well to completely protect everything we have. I would HIGHLY recommend these guys. Jacqueline Nagle

“By far the best removalists I have used. Adam and Chris were fantastic. On time, polite, energetic, fast and careful with all of my furniture. Reasonably priced and very efficient .” Jessie Mariee Watson, 29 August 2016

“I couldn’t have been happier with my choice of Optimove to shift a lot of my precious belongings into storage. The removal team phoned me to give an estimated time of arrival and when they arrived no time was wasted. The 2 removalists were fast and efficient. I was very impressed and would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for removalists and would have no hesitation in employing their services again.” Sue Bertram, 19 August 2016

“Best removal company we have ever used. Optimove removals is a great moving company, two nice lads who moved at a good pace. Everything was well looked after and arrived in perfect condition. Very good prices, next time you are looking to move to a new location check these removalists out. Better than a hiring a truck and moving your own stuff by a long way. On time, polite, no hidden costs – the most energetic men ever!!!!!” Kirsten Maria Corin, 2 August 2016

“On Saturday just gone, Adam and Chris from Optimove did an outstanding job in moving us from Burleigh Heads to Cornubia. They worked tirelessly without stopping for 5-6 hours until the job was done, whilst taking absolute care of all our possessions. They were friendly, honest and just downright good blokes. I high recommend Optimove.” Glen Read, 18 July 2016

“Just wanted to take a second to say a big thank you to the team at Optimove. The guys that arrived on the day were so friendly, helpful and professional. I couldn’t believe that when they said everything would get wrapped and protected that it actually happened. I have moved several times in the past but I found these guys definitely stood out amongst the rest with their speed and professionalism…” Carly Turner, 9 July 2016

Our Removal Services in Albion

  • Local Moves

    Local Moves

    We handle all residential moves from one-bedroom apartments to large family houses. If you’re moving into Albion’s growing apartment scene (like the HUDSON or Albion Mill), we’ll coordinate with building management for lift access and ensure all your furniture fits nicely (we’re experienced with the dimensions of common lifts and doorways in those buildings). For houses, we carefully maneuver through verandas and down high-set staircases, protecting railings and floors as we go. We also pay attention to Albion’s occasional street parking limitations – if needed, we arrange permits or use smaller shuttle vehicles to ferry items to the truck. Every item, whether a heavy fridge or a delicate mirror, is wrapped and secured before it goes on our truck.

We move desks, conference tables, computers, and file archives in an organised manner. If you’re moving into one of Albion’s corporate centres or out of a co-working space, we plan carefully so you’re up and running quickly. We can even assist with labeling and setting up furniture at the new office to your floor plan. For commercial or warehouse moves, we handle equipment, inventory, and shelving. And if you’re a retail store moving your shop, we move display cases, merchandise, and fixtures with care.

  • Packing Solutions

    Save time and stress by using our packing service. Our packers arrive with durable boxes and materials to securely pack your belongings. Albion has a lot of character homes with built-in shelving and nooks – we won’t miss anything hidden away. We’ll sort, wrap, and pack everything room by room. Especially for offices, our packing can ensure files remain in order and electronics are safely boxed. If you prefer to pack yourself, we’re happy to provide packing materials (boxes, tape, bubble wrap) delivered to your door in Albion ahead of time – just ask.

  • Storage Options

    Storage Options

    If your moving timeline has a gap (common if settlement dates don’t align or leases overlap), we offer secure storage for your items. We can pick up your things, store them, and deliver to your new place when ready. Storage is also useful if you’re in temporary accommodation and can’t take everything with you at once. Additionally, if you have a part-load going elsewhere, our backloading service could save you money (your items share space on a truck headed in the same direction). We often have trucks running between Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, etc., so ask us about cost-effective backloading if you are flexible on timing.

  • Small Moves

    Small Moves

    Not every move is a full house. If you just need a single large item moved in or out of Albion (e.g., you sold a sofa online, or need a new wardrobe delivered from a store), Optimove can handle that too. We treat it like a mini-move: the item will be protected and delivered by professionals. This can be cheaper and safer than hiring a van and trying yourself, especially for bulky or heavy pieces. Our team is happy to help with small jobs like these between larger moves.

  • Specialty Moves

    Specialty Moves

    Albion is also home to event venues and sports facilities. If you’re an organisation moving equipment (say, staging, sound systems for an event, or gym equipment from a training centre), we can assist with these short-term relocations as well. We’ve helped with everything from moving heavy catering equipment in/out of venues to transporting sets for theatre groups. Our versatility is one of our strengths.
