Professional Removalists In Double Bay
What Our Customers Say
Why Moving in Double Bay Needs Specialist Knowledge
Double Bay sits within the Municipality of Woollahra, approximately 5 km east of Sydney's CBD, tucked between Point Piper and Edgecliff on a natural harbour bay. New South Head Road is the primary access corridor, with Bay Street, Manning Road, and the residential streets running down towards the waterfront varying significantly in width, gradient, and truck accessibility. Men In Black Removals services Double Bay regularly and plans every job around the suburb's specific terrain, property mix, and high-value contents.
Property Types
Luxury beachfront apartments on the bay frontage, big multi-level heritage mansions on hillside neighbourhoods above Bay Street, and boutique residential buildings near Edgecliff Station. Original hardwood flooring, intricate cornicing, and small halls in older homes require careful handling. Upper-floor waterfront residences with lifts require pre-booking for removalists.
Move Time Estimate
A typical 3–4 bedroom Double Bay home takes 5–7 hours with an experienced crew – longer than average due to multi-level layouts, access constraints, and the individual care required for high-value furniture, artwork, and antiques. Waterfront apartment moves add time for lift coordination and secure loading in restricted street environments.

Three Challenges Our Movers in Double Bay Plan Around on Every Job
01 - Street Access & Parking
New South Head Road, Bay Street & Narrow Residential Streets
New South Head Road carries high traffic volume through the Eastern Suburbs corridor. We schedule early weekday arrivals to avoid peak-hour congestion and ensure truck parking at the property. Bay Street and the hillside residential streets running towards the waterfront are narrow with limited stopping options for larger vehicles. We pre-confirm vehicle size at booking and check council parking restrictions in advance so there are no surprises on the day.
02 - Terrain & Building Access
Steep Hillside Streets, Multi-Level Homes & Apartment Lift Access
The hillside streets above the commercial strip slope steeply towards New South Head Road, and many multi-level homes have split-level layouts where large items cannot be carried between floors through narrow internal access. For waterfront apartment buildings, lift access requires pre-booking. We handle this coordination before moving day. Where lifts are too small for oversized items, our balcony lift service provides a safe alternative.
03 - Contents Value
Designer Furniture, Artwork & Antiques
Double Bay properties routinely contain high-end designer furniture, original artwork, antiques, and luxury items that require individual handling throughout the move. Floor runners are laid before the first item moves. Every piece is blanket-wrapped before it leaves the room. For exceptionally high-value or fragile items, our premium removalist service provides additional coverage up to $20,000 per move.
Full-Service Moving Solutions for Double Bay Homes & Offices
Instead of following a standard Eastern Suburbs moving checklist, every service we offer in Double Bay is tailored to the suburb's topography, historic homes, waterfront flats, and valuable belongings.
House Removals
Whether you're moving from a hillside heritage home above Bay Street or a waterfront apartment on the foreshore, we assess your specific address at booking. This confirms vehicle size, parking access, and whether any rooms require furniture disassembly due to narrow original hallways. For waterfront apartment buildings, we pre-book lift access before house moving day. Floor runners are laid, and every piece is blanket-wrapped before the first item leaves the room.
Office Relocations & Workstation Installation
Double Bay's commercial precinct along Bay Street and New South Head Road has limited loading access during business hours. We schedule office moves for early morning or after hours to avoid disruption and parking restrictions. We handle full workstation disassembly, IT equipment transport, and reinstallation at the new premises so your team is operational from day one.
Packing & Unpacking
Packing a Double Bay home requires more individual attention than a standard Sydney move — high-value furniture, original artwork, antiques, and designer pieces each need separate wrapping and labelling. Our packing and moving service brings all materials, packs room by room, and handles fragile or irreplaceable items individually. If you're downsizing from a larger hillside home into a foreshore apartment, we help you plan what moves and what goes to storage before a single box is packed.
Storage Solutions
Settlement timing on Double Bay's waterfront and hillside properties can be tricky, especially when coordinating between a bigger heritage home and a modern beachfront apartment with distinct settlement dates. Our secure storage facility in Rosebery is approximately 10 minutes from Double Bay and is available from $195 per pod per month. We collect from your Double Bay address and redeliver to your new location when you're ready.
Premium Removalist Service
Double Bay's housing stock routinely contains designer furniture, original artwork, antiques, and irreplaceable luxury pieces that require more than standard removalist handling. Our Black Glove premium service includes all Sydney tolls and fuel, full furniture disassembly and reassembly; and insurance coverage up to $20,000 per move. Giving you complete protection for your most valuable possessions from pickup to final placement.
Rubbish Removal
Decluttering before, during, or after your Double Bay move? Our rubbish removal service handles responsible disposal and recycling of unwanted items, so you only move what you actually need, keeping the job faster and the truck lighter.
Furniture Removal
Luxury beachfront apartments on the bay frontage, big multi-level heritage mansions on hillside neighbourhoods above Bay Street, and boutique residential buildings near Edgecliff Station. Instead of squeezing large things through tight places, our furniture removal and balcony lift service carefully lifts them from the outside. Before quotation, all heavy or valuable items are examined to avoid improvisation on moving day.

How our Double Bay moving process works
Tell us about your move
Call or request a quote online. Let us know your Double Bay address, destination, property type, and any high-value or oversized items that need special handling. The more detail you give us, the more accurate your quote.
We plan around your property
Before moving day, we verify your Double Bay address for car size, council parking limits, lift access for apartment complexes, and access constraints. Nothing remains to figure out on the kerb.
We pack, move & protect
Our crew arrives on time with all materials; floor runners are laid first, and every item is blanket-wrapped before it leaves the room. High-value furniture, artwork, and antiques are handled individually. For oversized items that won't fit through standard access points, our balcony lift service is deployed as needed.
You settle in – everything's done
Every item is placed where you want it, furniture reassembled, and boxes removed. We do a final walkthrough before we leave. All to your standard, not ours. Add unpacking, storage, or rubbish removal to your booking if needed.

Get In Touch With Our Expert Removalists In Double Bay
When you book with Men In Black Removals for a Double Bay move, you're booking a team that already knows what the day involves. We know that Bay Street and the hillside streets above it need a vehicle size confirmed before the truck leaves the depot. We know that a waterfront apartment building needs lift access pre-booked before the crew arrives. We know that a heritage home with original hardwood floors needs protective runners down before the first item moves – and that a designer sofa or antique piece needs individual wrapping, not a furniture blanket thrown over it at the door.
Double Bay moves require preparation that most removalists don't think about until they're standing outside your property. We think about it before we quote. Call us on 1300 061 658 or get a free quote online.
