Sunshine sits where the Ballarat and Bendigo train lines meet, and that history as a transport and manufacturing hub shaped a lot of what the suburb looks like today. Solid older homes from the early 1900s, built during the McKay Harvester Works boom, sit close to the centre, while newer townhouse developments have filled in gaps further out over recent years.
Retail in Sunshine is really split two ways now. Hampshire Road, near the station, is the older, established strip. Ballarat Road out near Duke Street has grown into a newer commercial precinct built around the Home Co centre. Both areas get their own traffic patterns, so knowing which end of the suburb your move falls in changes how we time the day.
Choosing our team for a Sunshine move means working with people who already understand the suburb's layout, not a crew learning it from a map on the way over.
