Removalists Franklin

Local Removalists in Franklin, ACT 2913

Expert Movers has more than 10 years in the trade and a 4.9 rating from 5,000+ moves across Australia. You speak with our own team, never a call centre. Every mover who arrives is trained staff we employ, not subcontractors or day labour, and they drive our own trucks.

Franklin was built from 2007, and its homes are some of the newest in Gungahlin. Narrow streets and rear lanes serve compact houses and two-storey townhouses, many with garages at the back. Apartments line Flemington Road near the light rail. Parking close to the door is often the biggest planning job, so we check the lane and street before the day.

Franklin at a Glance: Gungahlin’s Literary Suburb

Franklin has the postcode 2913 and sits in Canberra’s Gungahlin district, about 11 km north of Civic. There’s no local council, as the ACT Government runs local services. It covers around 2.3 square kilometres and is home to about 7,500 people, with wetlands, parks and streets named after female Australian writers.

Key roads you’ll know:

Flemington Road: the northern and eastern edge, carrying the light rail to Civic.

Gungahlin Drive: the western edge, heading south toward Belconnen.

Well Station Drive: the southern edge, near Harrison and Mitchell.

Manning Clark Crescent: runs through the suburb past the local shops.

Neighbouring suburbs include Gungahlin, Harrison, Mitchell, Palmerston and Crace. The light rail and Gungahlin Drive both lead toward the city.

Houses, Townhouses and Apartments: Each Franklin Move Is Different

Each home type needs its own plan.

Compact family houses: Many have three or four bedrooms on smaller blocks. We size the truck so the load goes in one trip.

Two-storey townhouses: About one in five homes has two levels with internal stairs. We take beds apart upstairs and load from the rear garage.

Apartments on Flemington Road: Most have a lift and a basement car park. We set the start time around your building’s rules.

When quoting, we ask about your home type and where the garage sits. In the 2021 Census, about one in three Franklin homes had four or more bedrooms.

Young Families on the Move

Franklin’s median age is just 30, and many households have young children. Our Franklin movers set up cots, beds and the kitchen first, so the first night in the new home is calm. We can also unpack the kitchen while you settle the kids.

Renters Changing Homes Nearby

Close to half of Franklin homes are rented, and about one in four residents moved in the year before the 2021 Census. Many moves go to Harrison, Gungahlin or Crace. We size the crew and truck to the load, so short moves stay quick. If your old and new leases overlap by a day, that’s usually the easiest day to book.

A Family Moving Plan From Our Local Moving Company in Franklin

If you’re comparing the best removalists in Franklin, this plan helps a busy family get through moving day.

Two weeks before: Pack toys and books the kids won’t miss. Label each child’s boxes with their name and a colour so they can find their own things.

One week before: Book childcare or a family member for moving day, so little ones stay safe away from the truck.

The night before: Pack a bag for each child with pyjamas, a favourite toy, snacks and any medicines.

Moving morning: Strip beds and bag the linen by room, so each bed is made first at the new home. Keep pets in one closed room.

First night: Set up the kids’ rooms before anything else. We put cots and beds together before we leave.
