Braddon has changed from a quiet garden suburb into one of Canberra’s busiest inner-city neighbourhoods. Most homes are now apartments, many with basement car parks and shared lifts, alongside townhouses and a few older houses in the heritage streets. Moves here usually depend on lift bookings and clearance heights more than on the size of the load.

Braddon at a Glance: Canberra’s Inner-North Hub

Braddon has the postcode 2612 and sits about 2 km north-east of Civic. There’s no local council, as the ACT Government runs local services. It covers about 1.4 square kilometres and is home to around 6,400 people, with Lonsdale Street’s cafes and Haig Park on its northern edge.

Key roads you’ll know:

Northbourne Avenue: the western edge, with the light rail running into Civic.

Lonsdale Street: the main dining and shopping strip.

Mort Street: runs parallel to Lonsdale Street, lined with apartments and offices.

Limestone Avenue: the eastern edge, heading north toward Dickson.

Neighbouring suburbs include Turner, Reid, Campbell, Ainslie, Dickson and Lyneham. Northbourne Avenue puts Civic and the rest of Canberra a short trip away.

Apartments, Townhouses and Older Homes: Each Braddon Move Is Different

Each home type needs its own plan.

Apartment blocks: Around eight in ten Braddon homes are apartments. Many have a basement dock with a low ceiling, so we send a truck that fits.

Townhouses: These often have internal stairs and a narrow courtyard entry. We take beds apart upstairs and protect stair walls.

Older houses in the heritage streets: A small number of original homes remain. They usually have a driveway, so the truck can get closer, but large gardens can mean a longer walk to the door.

When quoting, we ask about your building and floor level. In the 2021 Census, about eight in ten Braddon homes had one or two bedrooms.

Trusted Office Removalists in Braddon

Braddon’s streets hold small offices, studios and shops. Our crew moves desks, files, IT gear and fit-out, and we can start early or work after hours so you open on time. Label each desk with its new spot and we’ll unload in that order.

Pro Tips for Moving in Braddon

If you’re comparing the best removalists in Braddon, these tips save time on moving day.

Check clearance heights: Many Braddon apartment buildings have basement ceilings or garage gates under 2.2 metres. Tell us ahead of time so we send the right size truck or a smaller support vehicle.

Book the lifts early: Your building manager will likely ask you to reserve the lift and hang protective curtains. Book at least two weeks ahead.

Avoid Lonsdale Street peak times: Weekend brunch and Friday nights bring crowds and full parking. A weekday or early start is easier.

Ask about loading zones: Some streets have short loading zones only. Check the time limits before the day.

Pack small for the lift: Smaller boxes fit more easily in a shared lift and speed up each trip. Keep heavy books in small cartons too.
