Big houses, and forty years of furniture.
Bellevue Hill moves are rarely small. Large interwar homes on generous blocks, furniture that has not been shifted in decades, and frequently a family deciding what goes and what does not. Volume is the thing everyone underestimates.
Moving in Bellevue Hill.
- The main constraint
- Volume, and how badly it is usually estimated. A Bellevue Hill house that reads as five bedrooms often carries the contents of a much larger one once the garage, cellar and storage rooms are counted.
- How we handle it
- We do a proper on-site inventory rather than a bedroom count, so the truck and crew are sized to what is actually there and the job finishes in one day.
- Typical job
- Five and six-bedroom homes with substantial furniture, artwork and frequently a piano. A full day at minimum, often two.
- Specialist items
- Pianos, marble, large artwork, safes and antiques are routine here. Each is surveyed and quoted separately rather than added to a general load.
- Driveways
- Several Bellevue Hill homes sit above or below the street behind steep drives. The gradient decides the truck, and we check it before quoting.
- On-site quotes
- Free, and strongly recommended. The gap between a phone estimate and the real volume is wider here than almost anywhere in Sydney.
Nobody counts the garage.
The most expensive thing that happens on a Bellevue Hill move is a second trip. It happens because the quote was based on the bedrooms while the real volume was in the garage, the cellar, the storage room off the laundry and the furniture under sheets nobody had looked at in years.
An hour spent walking through the whole house before quoting removes that entirely. It is free, and it is the difference between one long day and two expensive ones.
- 01 Full on-site inventory rather than a bedroom count
- 02 Truck and crew sized to the real volume
- 03 Pianos, marble and artwork surveyed separately
- 04 Steep driveways checked before the truck is assigned
- 05 Garages, cellars and storage rooms counted in
- 06 Storage where settlement dates do not align
01 Why do you insist on seeing the house first?
Because in Bellevue Hill the bedroom count is a poor guide to the volume. The difference between an accurate quote and a guess here is usually several thousand dollars and a second truck.
02 Can you move a grand piano?
Yes, after surveying it. Depending on the room and the stairs we either dismantle onto a skid or arrange a hoist, and it is priced before you commit.
03 We are downsizing and not everything is coming.
That is common here. We can quote the move and the disposal of what is not going separately, so you can decide with real numbers in front of you.
04 Do you cover Woollahra and Rose Bay?
Yes, along with Double Bay, Bondi Junction and the rest of the Eastern Suburbs.

Nearby suburbs we cover
