What a Newcastle move involves
- Sydney to Newcastle, and backIt is about 160 km by road, on the M1 Pacific Motorway across the Hawkesbury and up past the Central Coast. We move both ways, Sydney to Newcastle and Newcastle to Sydney, as a country removal.
- The Hunter and beyondLake Macquarie, Maitland, Cessnock, Port Stephens and towns further up the valley are part of our country removals. Tell us the town and we confirm it with your price.
- Local moves around NewcastleMoving across Newcastle, say from a terrace near the harbour to a house by the lake? We do local moves too, packed, moved and placed room by room.
- Why a planned date mattersKeys, leases, settlement and lift bookings all hang off moving day. Pick a date early and we plan the crew and truck around it. We give you the timing with your quote.
- Packing and loadingFull or partial packing, with cartons and wrapping for fragile items, or just what you need.
- Storage if the dates do not line upIf you have to leave one place before the other is ready, we hold your goods in secure storage, short or long term, and deliver when you are ready. It goes on the same price. See Storage.
- One price up front, before you bookPacking, loading, the drive, delivery and placing in one price. What drives it: how much you are moving, how much packing you want, access at each end and any storage. If something cannot be known yet, we tell you before you book, not on the invoice.

- Stairs, steep driveways and narrow terrace streets, so we bring the right crew
- Key handover and building access times at the old and new place
