Removalists Asquith
Upper North Shore moves near Hornsby and Ku-ring-gai Chase, priced by the hour.
Between the Pacific Highway and the bush
Asquith sits 26 kilometres north-west of Sydney’s CBD on the Pacific Highway, with Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park running along its eastern edge. Houses on the highway side face standard suburban streets, but properties that back onto the national park tend to sit on deeper blocks with longer driveways and more trees to work around. That difference in access is what shapes the quote.
The rate follows the hours, set by the truck and crew the job needs. Give us the bedrooms, any heavy pieces and the access at both addresses, and our Asquith removalists size the move before the day. One crew member runs the plan from the first piece of furniture to the last box placed. We take beds, dining tables and wardrobes apart for the trip and reassemble them at the other end. Local rates start from $75 per half hour for a two-person crew and a 20 cubic metre truck, and the full list by truck size is on our removalist prices page.
Streets around Asquith and Hornsby
The Pacific Highway carries most of the traffic through Asquith, and the residential streets that branch off it are quieter but not always wide. Older houses on established blocks can have narrow side access and overhanging trees that limit how close a truck can park. Near Hornsby, the streets climb and dip around the rail corridor, so driveways can be steep at one end and flat at the other.
We ask about the street, the driveway and any stairs before putting a number on the job. Where a big truck cannot reach the door, we send a smaller one or plan the carry so the crew spends its time shifting furniture rather than walking. If you are near the train line, tell us about parking and we sort out where the truck sits while we load.
Interstate from the Upper North Shore
Asquith sits right on the Pacific Highway, so interstate loads get a clean start. Trucks heading to Brisbane run north through Hornsby, and Melbourne or Canberra loads head south toward the city and the main southern routes. A dedicated truck gives you an agreed delivery day; a backload shares the space with another load heading the same way and you pay for the room yours takes up.
Your furniture is blanket-wrapped, plastic-covered and strapped for the road, with public liability and transit insurance on every load. Need somewhere to keep your goods while you wait for settlement? We hold them in climate-controlled storage under 24/7 security and deliver when the new place is ready. Packing teams, boxes, paper and tape are available for the full house or just the breakables.

Moving near the Pacific Highway
Do you move houses that back onto Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park?
Yes. Properties on the eastern side of Asquith can have longer driveways and more tree cover than the ones closer to the highway. We check the driveway width and overhang before choosing a truck, and plan the carry so the crew works efficiently from door to truck.
Can your truck get through the quieter streets off the Pacific Highway?
Most of the time, yes. The residential streets branching off the Pacific Highway are narrower than the highway itself, but a medium truck fits on almost all of them. If your street is particularly tight or has low-hanging branches, tell us and we send the right size.
Does parking near Asquith railway station cause problems on moving day?
The streets around the station can fill up during commute hours. If your move is near the station, let us know the time and we plan where the truck sits while we load. An early start or a mid-morning slot usually gives us the best access.
What truck size suits a house on a deep block near the bush line?
That depends on the load and the driveway. A deep block with a long driveway may need a shorter truck to get close, while a wide block with clear access can take a bigger one. We ask about both before we quote so you get the right match.
Do you run interstate loads south from the Hornsby area?
Yes. Asquith’s position on the Pacific Highway makes the run straightforward, whether heading to Melbourne, Canberra or Brisbane. You can book a dedicated truck or share a backload and pay for the space your furniture needs.
