Moving House in Brisbane Without a Car? Here’s Who Can Help

🚶 No Car? No Ute? No Worries — Here’s How to Move in Brisbane Without One

Living car-free in Brisbane is great — until it’s time to move. If you’re a student, inner-city renter, or just don’t own a vehicle, moving house can feel like an impossible task.

But you don’t need a licence (or a friend with a ute) to get your move sorted. At Get It Cheaper, we help you compare Brisbane removalists who do door-to-door jobs — no vehicle, trailer, or gear needed on your end.

🚚 What’s Included in a Car-Free Move?

When you hire the right removalist, they’ll handle:

  • Pickup directly from your apartment or unit

  • Furniture disassembly (if needed)

  • All trolleys, blankets, straps, and dollies

  • Transport and unloading at your new place

  • Optional reassembly and room-by-room placement

You literally just need to pack your boxes — they’ll do the rest.

🧠 Who Typically Moves Without a Car?

  • 🎓 Uni students in St Lucia, Kelvin Grove, or South Bank

  • 🏙️ Inner-city renters in high-rises or walk-ups

  • 🧳 People relocating from sharehouses

  • 👵 Downsizers moving into units or retirement communities

  • 🌿 Environmentally conscious renters skipping the car altogether

Whether it’s a one-bedroom move or just furniture, there’s a mover for that.

🧼 Combine It With Bond Cleaning for a Zero-Stress Exit

If you’re moving from a rental, you’ll likely need to hand the place back spotless. Many movers and cleaners now work together, or can be booked on the same day.

💡 Moving Without a Car? These Tips Help Even More

  • Book ground-floor access or let movers know about lifts/stairs

  • Use uniform-sized boxes for faster stacking and lifting

  • Move midweek when pricing is lower and traffic lighter

  • Disassemble what you can — or ask if movers include it

  • Be upfront about what you’re moving (even if it’s “just a bed and a few boxes”)
