Tips For Moving to Melbourne
Melbourne’s high demand housing is called out as expensive to unaffordable while fueled by rapid population growth and driven by new job creation. Melbourne was labelled an “Alpha City” by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network. Demand is high for services associated with homes. Managing and processing moves in a predictable timely manner is challenging. Further, Melbourne is far away, detailed planning is key to shipping your possessions, pets and vehicles arriving, without additional time and unexpected expenses.
Melbourne often has all “four seasons in one day”. Moves in Melbourne run a risk from these daily weather interruptions. The location, between a dry hot inland and a cool southern ocean, causes these weather reactions. There are warm to hot summers, with stable comfortable grey sky winters. A little like living in North Vancouver versus Richmond and Surrey, in Canada, where rain tends to fall mostly leaving other areas dry. Many like the’dry’ compared to the humidity of Sydney or Brisbane. Overall autumn is the best time of year to process moves from Canada.
