Removalists Point Piper
Hourly moves planned for tight harbourside streets and gated waterfront homes.
Moving on eleven harbourside streets
Point Piper sits on a small peninsula between Double Bay and Rose Bay, and the entire suburb has just eleven streets. Most of them run downhill from New South Head Road toward the harbour, ending at waterfront properties with gated driveways, steep entries and limited turning room. That layout shapes every move we do here.
Our Point Piper removalists charge by the hour, and the quote is built once we know the truck access at both ends. A large home on Wolseley Road with a wide frontage is a different job from a house on Wunulla Road where the driveway drops steeply to the water, and the quote reflects that before anyone lifts a box. 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.
Truck access on Wolseley Road and the waterfront
Wolseley Road is the main street through Point Piper, and most of the large properties sit on it or on the short streets that branch off toward the harbour. There are no loading bays, no commercial strip and almost no street parking. The nearest shops are in Rose Bay and Double Bay, so the only vehicles on these streets are residents and visitors.
We ask about gate codes, intercom access and driveway width before the day. Where a full-size truck cannot fit, we send a smaller one or stage the load so the crew keeps moving instead of waiting. If your building has a lift booking or a reserved parking bay, we work the schedule around those times.
Wrapping and packing for large waterfront homes
Homes in Point Piper hold oversized artwork, marble table tops and heavy timber furniture. Blankets and plastic go around every piece before it touches the truck, and straps hold the load still for the drive. Beds and dining tables come apart for loading and go back together at the new address, all part of the job. A supervisor runs the plan from the first item on to the last piece off.
If you want us to pack the kitchen, glassware and wardrobes the day before, add a packing team to the quote. We sell boxes, paper and tape as well. Every move is backed by public liability and transit insurance, and if settlement dates do not line up, your load goes into climate-controlled storage under round-the-clock cameras and comes back when you have the keys.
Interstate from Sydney’s eastern suburbs
Interstate moves from Point Piper head south toward Melbourne and Canberra, or north toward Brisbane. You can book a dedicated truck on a set delivery day, or split the journey with another household leaving Sydney and pay only for the cubic metres your furniture fills.
If you are arriving from interstate, we deliver to the door and place everything in the rooms you choose. If the new place is not ready, we hold your furniture until settlement goes through.
Getting a quote for a Point Piper move
Drop us a note with the two addresses, the bedroom count, any oversized items like a piano or pool table, and whether there are stairs, a gate or a long carry. We reply with a price and a truck size, and the calculator below lets you check the volume beforehand. No charge and no obligation.
Gate left open, boxes sealed, drawers empty and a spot held in the driveway: that is how you keep the hours and the bill down on a harbourside move. Call 1300 724 553 to go through the details, or use the contact form to get things started.

Why Point Piper households choose us
Hourly rates, quoted up front
The rate is set by the truck and crew your move needs, quoted once we know the access at both ends, so the price is clear before you book.
Wrapped and strapped for the drive
Every piece of furniture is wrapped in blankets and plastic and strapped in the truck so nothing shifts on the road between addresses.
A supervisor on every crew
One person on the crew runs the plan for the day, from the first item on the truck to the last piece placed at your new home.
The right truck for the street
Point Piper's eleven streets are narrow and hilly, so we check driveway width, turning room and gate access before choosing the truck for the job.

Frequently asked about moving in Point Piper
Is there room to park a removal truck on Wolseley Road?
Wolseley Road is the main street through Point Piper and carries local traffic, so we plan the truck position before we arrive. Most properties along it have off-street driveways, but some are too narrow or steep for a full-size truck. We check access on every quote and send the truck that fits the driveway and the load.
How do you protect artwork and large furniture in waterfront homes?
Blankets and plastic go around everything before it touches the truck, and oversized pieces such as artwork, mirrors and marble tops get extra padding. A supervisor sets the loading order so heavy items sit low and fragile ones are strapped where they cannot shift. If a piece needs a crate, we arrange that before the day.
Can you move us from a property with a security gate and intercom?
Yes. Many homes on Wunulla Road and Wolseley Crescent sit behind security gates, so we ask for gate codes or intercom instructions beforehand. The crew arrives with that information and we schedule the load around any building rules or access windows.
What if our Point Piper settlement date moves?
Your furniture goes into climate-controlled storage under round-the-clock cameras, and we deliver when you have the keys. This handles anything from a few days between settlements to several months while you renovate a new harbourside home.
Do you move pianos and pool tables from Point Piper?
Yes, both are quoted as their own item because they need extra crew and the right gear. The steep driveways on some of Point Piper’s harbour-side streets add a carry that we plan in advance. Tell us the type and location, and we build the crew around it.
