Melbourne’s north

Brick houses, units and rentals.

Most Jacana homes are three-bedroom brick houses: at the 2021 Census nearly two in three had three bedrooms. Send us both full addresses and photos of the furniture that’s moving, and we give you one fixed price in writing before the day, with no hourly meter.

Jacana is a small suburb in the City of Hume, about 14 km north of the CBD: 1.2 square kilometres and about 900 homes. It lies east of Moonee Ponds Creek and south of Johnstone Street, with the Western Ring Road on its southern edge. It was built as a Housing Commission of Victoria estate. Most houses date from 1958 and 1959, all in solid or veneer brick, and the northern streets followed in the early 1970s as the southern end of the Meadow Fair estate. Several streets are named after competitors at the 1956 Olympic Games.

Units, townhouses and rentals

Almost one in five Jacana homes is a townhouse, semi-detached home or flat, and more than a third are rented, well above the Victorian average. In a unit, put the unit number in the full address, and we check access and truck parking online before we quote.

Clearing out before you leave

Hume City Council asks you to book a hard waste collection at least two weeks before you move, or earlier if you’re moving in December or January. Anything left behind after you move out is treated as dumped rubbish and may be fined. Leave your bins and kitchen caddy behind, because they stay with the property. If they have rubbish in them, put them out for collection on moving day.

Moving into a Hume home

Check that the property has a small garbage bin, a large recycling bin, a food and garden bin and a kitchen caddy. To have waste vouchers allocated, renters send Hume a copy of their rental agreement, and owners send a certificate of occupancy or a rates notice. One thing to watch: next-door Glenroy is in the City of Merri-bek, not Hume. Even Jacana station, on Pascoe Vale Road, is in Glenroy. Bin and hard waste rules follow the council, so if your move crosses that line, check with both councils.

Good to know

Jacana moving questions.

Can you move me on the last day of my lease, or on a weekend?
Yes. We move 7 days a week, 7am to 7pm, weekends and public holidays included, so an end-of-lease move can happen on the day you need it.
How do I get rid of furniture I’m not taking?
Book a Hume hard waste collection at least two weeks before you move, or earlier in December or January. Hume’s Resource Recovery Centres also take unwanted items, and waste vouchers may allow a free drop-off, with limits and conditions. Don’t leave anything behind: Hume treats it as dumped rubbish and may fine you.
How do you price a three-bedroom brick house move?
From both full addresses and photos of the furniture that’s moving, room by room. We check access and truck parking online and size the crew and the truck from the photos. You get one fixed price in writing before the day. For a four- or five-bedroom house, you can choose a free onsite quote instead.
Can you take beds apart and supply boxes?
Yes. We dismantle and reassemble beds and wardrobes on request, and deliver boxes and packing materials before the move. We can pack for you too, if you’d like a hand.
