Everyone has different needs, budgets, cargo levels, and preferences when it comes to removals between Sydney and Port Melbourne. ZOOM offers a variety of moving services to meet every need because we understand that every move is as unique as the people who need it. Here’s a little more on what your options are.
Our door-to-door option takes place overnight and is great for people who want their cargo moved quickly and at a specific time and date. With our Premium Direct removals service, you’ll have an entire team of professional removalists and moving trucks exclusively assigned to your move, meaning that you’ll enjoy a fully focused and attentive service for the entire job.
Backloading is an alternative removalist service for anyone looking to save a little money on their budget and is not too focused on a specific time and date. By combining your cargo with other customers and ‘sharing’ the moving truck, you’ll only pay for the space you use. While this is a more affordable service, you can rest assured that your cargo will have the same high level of protection and attention as any of our other services during your Sydney to Melbourne move.

Our team will walk you through each step of your move between Sydney and Port Melbourne to make it simple and stress-free for you. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t help things go smoothly. To make things even simpler, we’ve put together the following advice for you to keep in mind.
A local move is not quite the same as transporting your belongings and cargo across Australia. There are numerous additional factors to think about and prepare for, so we always advise contacting us as soon as you can so that we can make the necessary preparations. We can plan our route more effectively and make other arrangements, such as storage and cleaning.
The entire process will take longer if you are not completely prepared to leave when our removalists arrive at your door. Quite often, packing is left up until the last minute and causes loading delays. Instead of worrying about that, just ask our interstate removalists to do it for you. They’ll pack everything away into secure boxes, label them and load them up. If you plan to pack your own belongings, we suggest using this moving checklist to guide you.
Your moving day needs to run smoothly, and with our interstate movers, you won’t have to worry. To make it easier for them, we always ask that there be room for the moving truck to park at your old house. We also ask that all hallways and doors be free of any obstructions. Please let us know in advance if you will be bringing any delicate or heavy items so we can make sure we have the right tools to disassemble and load them.
It’s likely that there will be some differences between your new location and the one you’re leaving behind when you move across state lines in Australia. In the grand scheme of things, Sydney and Melbourne have a lot in common, but each has its own distinct character. We always make sure to let our customers know that we need parking space on the other side, and that the unloading path is free of obstacles.

Over the past twenty years, Port Melbourne, formerly an industrial area, has undergone extensive urban renewal. As a result, Port Melbourne is a unique and historic neighbourhood that includes industrial and port areas along the Yarra, as well as open parklands, secluded beaches, opulent apartments, and restaurants and cafes on Bay Street. With one end of the West Gate Bridge located there, the suburb also serves as a significant east-west transportation route. The population of Port Melbourne is approximately 16,200 with a median property price of $1.885 million for a three-bedroom house.
Location
Port Melbourne can be found around 5 kilometres from the Melbourne CBD and is a highly popular area for professionals and young families. The West Gate Freeway and CityLink, two significant freeways, move traffic into and out of the region. Years of various city planning techniques have resulted in a convoluted road network that is challenging for tourists to use, and as a result, it is surrounded by a substantial bus network.
There are several reasons why Melbourne is regarded as such a desirable place to live: various public transportation options, low crime rates, and a large number of career opportunities. It also has a fantastic arts and culture scene, top-notch universities, and a laid-back way of life.
The city is famous throughout Australia for its colorful alley culture, which is full of bustling shopping arcades, roving musicians, live music, calm street-side book cafes… and the occasional secret street party!
International students understand the value of having an airport close by, especially when traveling back home or when visiting family and friends. Fortunately, Melbourne’s airport is easily accessible and conveniently located in the city center (around 20-35 minutes each way).
Melbourne is consistently voted Australia’s ‘best student city’ for both local and international students, and it is the world’s third-best student city! Melbourne thereby outperforms in terms of affordability, employer activity, appeal, and student perception.
Many expats, especially those from the United Kingdom, Ireland, China, Italy, and Germany, who make up some of Melbourne’s largest expat populations, dream of relocating to the city. In 2018, about 90,000 people moved to Melbourne, joining the 58 percent of Melbournians who were born overseas.
Melbourne is clearly a well-liked vacation spot. In the InterNations Expat Insider poll, the city is consistently ranked among the best locations to live, and immigration is expected to aid the city’s rapid growth over the next decade.
Expats who speak English will find it quite easy to settle in Melbourne and blend into the local culture. You may easily meet friends, learn about Melbourne’s history and culture, and participate in all of the activities that make it so enjoyable. Finding a job and a place to live should also be easy because most business is performed in English. Similarly, if you are a natural Mandarin or Cantonese speaker who also speaks English, moving to Melbourne is not difficult. The city has a significant Chinese population, and many street signs are written in both English and simplified Chinese characters.
If you want to migrate to Melbourne, you can apply for a variety of visas and work permits, depending on your status and qualifications. If you want to stay in this city for a long time, you’ll most likely need a Skilled Worker Visa or an Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) visa. To be eligible for one of these two visas, you must complete the following requirements:
To be eligible, you must meet all of the requirements for the Australian visa for which you are seeking. To be nominated, you must also meet the requirements set forth by the Victorian government. This could be for a company visa or a skilled worker visa. Finally, you must commit to permanently residing in Melbourne (or the state of Victoria).
Visit the Victoria Government’s official website for further information.
For many expats, working in Melbourne is a dream come true. The city has a flourishing job market that is predicted to grow by about 10% in the future, as well as a thriving start-up sector.
Finding a job in Melbourne isn’t always straightforward, but the rewards are well worth the effort. Working in this city allows you to advance your career while also enjoying the benefits of living in the state capital. Many people will be qualified to work in this city that enjoys Australia’s wonderful weather and lively culture, with chances in professions as diverse as healthcare, construction, and professional services.
Despite the abundance of career prospects, finding work in Australia’s second largest city is not easy. You cannot expect to find work simply by arriving on a tourist visa, nor can you think that your qualifications will instantly make you stand out in a competitive job market.
The average income in Melbourne, like the rest of the globe, differs depending on the industry. It’s vital to keep in mind that the cost of living in Australian cities is very high, so you should weigh your possible living costs against your earning potential before relocating.
The average monthly net pay (after tax) in Melbourne is similar to the Australian average net salary, although this is offset by the fact that the cost of living in Melbourne is greater than in some of the other capital cities.
Working in Melbourne pays roughly $5028.73 per month on average, compared to $4843.42 nationally. Now you must determine how much of your wages you will need to meet the cost of living in a city where living expenditures are deemed not only high in Australia, but also around the world.
Accommodation accounts for the majority of everyone’s budget, including professionals, families, students, and overseas students. The closer you get to the core business district, as in any metropolis, higher the price.
