If you are looking for movers Donabate families can depend on, Moving Service Dublin covers the whole peninsula, including Donabate village, Portrane, Turvey, Ballisk and the large new estates that have grown up around the train station. We bring a transit van and an experienced mover, wrap your furniture with care and give you a fixed price before moving day.
Donabate has grown quickly, and a lot of our work here is moving young families into newly built homes. See our services for everything we offer, or check areas we cover to see the rest of north county Dublin and beyond. If you are coming from further away, our long distance removals page explains how we handle longer trips.
Why Choose Our Movers Donabate Service
Donabate is a peninsula with essentially one main road in and out, running from the R132 past the Malahide estuary and over the railway bridge. That road can back up at peak times, so we plan arrival times carefully to avoid sitting in traffic with a loaded van. Once inside the village, most estates have driveways and good access, which makes for an efficient move.
New build homes come with their own quirks. Fresh paintwork marks easily, staircases are often finished in light timber and carpets may only just be fitted. We protect floors and walls where needed, wrap furniture fully and carry carefully on brand new stairs.
Moves Into New Estates Near the Station
Developments off the Hearse Road, Ballisk and the station area bring a lot of first time buyers to Donabate. To make handover day easier:
- Confirm the date your keys will be released before booking the van.
- Check with the builder or management company about site access and parking.
- Measure stairs and landings for large sofas and wardrobes.
- Keep a box of essentials with you, such as kettle, mugs, chargers and toiletries.
If your closing date shifts at short notice, let us know as soon as possible and we will do our best to move the booking with you.
Portrane and the Coastal Side of the Peninsula
Portrane has older cottages, bungalows and homes near the beach and the Burrow, with some narrower roads and tight entrances. Sea air and wind can be strong along this side of the peninsula, so we keep mattresses and soft furnishings covered on the way to the van. On sunny weekends, the roads to Donabate beach and Newbridge House can get busy, so a weekday slot is often easier.
For bigger homes we plan the load and the number of trips in advance, or arrange a larger vehicle when that makes more sense. Beds and wardrobes are taken apart and rebuilt at the new address, and boxes go straight to the right rooms.
We also do smaller jobs locally, such as collecting furniture bought from a shop in Swords or Blanchardstown and bringing it home to Donabate.
