If you need movers Dublin 7 locals recommend, Moving Service Dublin is built for exactly this part of the city. Stoneybatter, Phibsborough, Cabra, Smithfield, Arbour Hill and Grangegorman are full of narrow streets and small cottages where a big removals truck simply does not fit. Our transit van and experienced mover can get in close, load quickly and get moving again.
We move apartments, cottages, shared houses and student rooms all over D7. Browse our services for the full list, including our student moving service, or check areas we cover if your new home is further out.
How Our Movers Dublin 7 Service Handles Tight Streets
The artisan cottages around Manor Street, Prussia Street and the streets off the North Circular Road are lovely to live in but hard to move out of. Front doors open straight onto the footpath, hallways are narrow and there is rarely anywhere to stop a vehicle. We park as close as the street allows, keep the van tidy so we can load fast, and use blankets and straps so nothing knocks against walls on the way out.
Smithfield and the newer blocks around the Four Courts and Grangegorman are different again. They usually have lifts and fob entry but limited loading areas, so we ask about the building's rules in advance and work around them.
Tips for Moving in D7
- Measure doorways for large sofas. Many cottages have doors that are narrower than modern standards.
- Check if your street has residents' parking only and let us know when booking.
- Avoid market and event days around Smithfield Square if you can.
- Students moving near the TU Dublin Grangegorman campus should book early for the start and end of term.
Phibsborough has its own quirks. Many of the flats above shops along the main street are reached by a side door and a steep staircase, and the stretch near Dalymount Park gets very busy on match nights. We plan arrival times around both, so loading is quick and nobody is left waiting at the kerb with a sofa.
Who We Move in Dublin 7
We work with a real mix of people in D7. Young professionals moving between rented flats in Phibsborough. Families leaving a Cabra semi for something with an extra bedroom. Students carrying a room's worth of belongings into a new house share. Older residents downsizing from a long time family home on the Navan Road side. Every move gets the same care: furniture wrapped, beds and wardrobes taken apart where needed and everything placed in the right room at the other end.
For bigger homes we plan the load and number of trips in advance, or arrange a larger vehicle when that suits the job better. You will always know the plan before moving day.
