Can you move house during the coronavirus restrictions? And can anyone help you? Here is what you can and can't do
ABCCoronavirus restrictions are going to be affecting our lives for some time — the impact is not exactly limited to a couple of weeks of inconvenience. There's no rule in the Northern Territory at this stage to say that you can't move house, however strict area closures remain in place in some remote areas for biosecurity reasons. The ACT Government's website says there's "no restrictions on travel within the ACT" while urging everyone to maintain social distancing and hygiene measures. Western Australia also doesn't specify "moving house" as being banned, and their latest round of restriction relaxations allows for up to 10 people at open homes and display village inspections, which is helpful if you're looking for a new place. Victoria, New South Wales and the ACT's borders remain open, but each state's various public health directions and rules apply, so if you're moving there, be aware of those before you go.
