Moving In

Moving is hard work! And it can feel more stressful when it involves navigating shared spaces and unfamiliar surroundings. To help make your move a smooth one and minimise disruptions for other residents, we ask you to follow the steps below.

• Make your move between 9:00am – 4:00pm, Monday to Sunday.

• A week before moving in, email Jake at VBCS with the following:

  • The date(s) and time(s) of your move.

  • Details of your removalists public liability insurance (e.g. Certificate of Currency).

• Jake (VBCS) will have protective covers fitted to the lift and, if necessary, organise an additional hard rubbish collection.

• Photograph any pre-existing damage in the common area walkways to your apartment.

• Keep the driveway entrances clear. Council designated drop-off/pick-up short-term parking is available in Lynch Street at the rear of the property. It's easiest to park on the weekends in Lynch Street.

• Ensure the lift remains available for other residents and their visitors. Please don’t hold the lift by interfering with the lift door sensors.

• Look out for fire sprinkler heads. There’s one above the door just inside your apartment. If it’s struck, you may receive a costly visit from the Metropolitan Fire Brigade.  MFB charges are paid for by the responsible party.

• Maintain the security of our building and the safety of our residents as you move. If you need to keep a door open, have someone there to keep watch.

• Throw out unwanted packaging materials using the bins on the lower ground next to the lift.

Please flatten boxes before placing them in the recycling bins.
