Moving in or out of Collaroy? Long beachfront suburb of apartments and family homes below the plateau — and we know how to load it. From $160/hr, 2-hour minimum.
Long beachfront suburb of apartments and family homes below the plateau.
The Collaroy job sheet is dominated by beachfront apartment moves, family homes, and downsizers. The peninsula has one road in and out, so timing is a genuine part of the plan rather than an afterthought — we start early to stay ahead of it. We quote that honestly up front rather than adding it on the day, and at 21km from our Double Bay office the travel leg stays small.
21km from our Double Bay office. Regular territory for our crews — we are here several times a week.
Same crews, same trucks, same hourly rates — whichever of these your Collaroy move turns out to be. Ordered by what we do most often in bayside & coastal homes.
Six steps, in order, from the moment you enter your address to the moment the crew leaves.
Steps three to five are the ones that change from suburb to suburb — and in Collaroy they are shaped by permit & time-limited parking.
1
Instant estimate, then a human check
Enter your Collaroy address and the calculator returns a real number in about two minutes, built from the same pricing our crews are dispatched on. Our team then reviews the enquiry personally and comes back the same business day.
2
Your date, locked with a written quote
You get the truck size, the crew size, the hourly rate, the call-out and the surcharge (if you are moving on a weekend) in writing before you commit. Nothing on that sheet changes on move day unless you change the job.
3
Frontage, verge and the weather window
Coastal streets around Collaroy have generous frontages and awkward verges in equal measure. We check where the truck can legally sit, whether the driveway takes weight, and how exposed the carry is — salt air and a sudden squall are real risks to unwrapped furniture, so we plan the covered sequence in advance.
4
Truck sized to the parking, permits sorted
Where Collaroy has permit or time-limited parking, the truck has to fit the legal spot — not just the furniture. We size accordingly, and where a council permit or a reserved bay is needed we tell you which one and when to apply, because those take lead time and the fine does not care that you were moving. At 21km from Double Bay Office we build the travel leg into your quote upfront — you see it as a line item before you book, not as a surprise afterwards.
5
Protected first, loaded second
Floor runners and doorframe padding go down before a single item moves. Mattresses go into covers, screens and mirrors into purpose-made cartons, and the load is built heaviest-first so nothing shifts on the drive.
6
Placed, reassembled, and signed off
Beds go back together, furniture goes where you point rather than where it lands, and the crew does a final walk-through with you before they leave. Billing stops when the last item is placed — we bill by the minute after the two-hour minimum, not in rounded-up half hours.
That is the whole process — no step six-and-a-half.Start at step one and you will have a number for your Collaroy move in about two minutes.
Pittwater Road has clearways. Beachfront apartment blocks have limited loading space and severe summer parking pressure.

What it costs
Collaroy removalist costs — work it out now
Pick your home size and where you are going. These are the same truck rates, call-out and
two-hour minimum our crews are dispatched on — so this is an indication, not a teaser.
For a real quote against your actual addresses, the calculator takes about two minutes.
Indicative only. Your real quote depends on the actual drive between your two addresses,
stairs, lifts and carry distance. Weekend and public-holiday surcharges are per crew member.
Why it matters
AFRA accredited vs a cheap quote in Collaroy
Anyone can put a truck on a website. AFRA — the Australian Furniture Removers Association —
audits members every year on insurance, equipment, training and complaints handling.
Here is what that difference looks like on a Collaroy job.
What you are comparingEasy Peasy · AFRA memberNon-accredited operator
Transit protection on exposed carries✓Blankets, covers and wrap included as standard — necessary on Collaroy's exposed frontages, not an upsell.✗Wrapping charged per item, or skipped entirely to keep the hourly headline rate low.
Written quote before you commit✓Truck, crew, hourly rate, call-out and any weekend surcharge in writing before you book. Billed by the minute after the two-hour minimum.✗Verbal estimate over the phone, then a "the job was bigger than expected" conversation at the end of the day.
Vehicles and equipment✓Owned, maintained fleet of 20+ trucks with blankets, trolleys, straps and port-a-robes on board as standard.✗Hire truck booked that morning, with equipment charged separately or simply not carried.
Who actually turns up✓Uniformed, screened, trained employees. The same crews week after week, not a different pair each job.✗Subcontracted or casual labour with no background screening and no accountability back to the company.
If something goes wrong✓A documented complaints process, externally audited every year as an AFRA member, with an escalation path that ends at a named manager.✗No formal process. Your options are a chargeback, a bad review, or small claims.
Cancellations and no-shows✓A depot, a dispatcher and a backup truck. If a vehicle breaks down we send another one.✗One truck and one driver. A breakdown or a double-booking means your move simply does not happen that day.
Pricing after the job✓The rate you were quoted, billed to the minute. No fuel levy, no stair levy, no "heavy item" surprise.✗Low headline rate, then call-out fees, travel time, fuel surcharges and equipment hire added at the end.

Collaroy is one of the suburbs we cover across Northern Beaches. Same crews, same trucks and the same hourly rates apply right across the region, so if you are moving between Northern Beaches suburbs — or out of Northern Beaches entirely — it is the same team either way. The Northern Beaches page lists every suburb we cover in this part of Sydney.
Is Collaroy difficult to get a removal truck into?
Pittwater Road has clearways. Beachfront apartment blocks have limited loading space and severe summer parking pressure. Tell us the street when you book and we will send the right truck rather than the biggest one.
How much does a Collaroy move cost?
From $160/hr for a 2T van or $180/hr for a 4T truck with two removalists, 2-hour minimum, then billed by the minute. Collaroy is 21km from our Double Bay office, so the travel component stays modest. Run your address through the Instant Quote calculator for a full breakdown in about two minutes.
How much do removalists cost in Collaroy?
From $160/hr for a 2T van or $180/hr for a 4T truck with two removalists, with a two-hour minimum and then billed by the minute. Most Collaroy moves run on a 10T at around $210/hr, and at 21km from our Double Bay Office the travel component stays modest. Run your address through the Instant Quote calculator for a full breakdown in about two minutes.
How long does a Collaroy move take?
A typical Collaroy job runs 6–8 hours, based on the bayside & coastal homes we move here most often. Stairs, lift waits and carry distance are what move that number, which is why we ask about access before we ask about bedrooms.
Do you handle the parking and access issues in Collaroy?
Yes, and it is worth planning. Permit and time-limited parking around Collaroy decides where the truck can legally sit, which decides your carry distance. Photograph the signs outside both addresses and send them through, and we will tell you whether a council permit or a reserved bay is worth arranging.
Can you move us on a weekend in Collaroy?
Yes — Saturday and Sunday slots are available and they book out first, so give us as much notice as you can. Weekend work carries a surcharge paid per removalist (+$11/hr Saturday, +$22/hr Sunday on a two-removalist truck), and it is shown on your quote before you commit rather than added afterwards.
Which suburbs near Collaroy do you also cover?
All of them. We regularly move between Collaroy and Dee Why, Narrabeen, Freshwater, North Narrabeen, North Curl Curl and Curl Curl. A move between two neighbouring suburbs is one of the most common jobs we run — short drive leg, same crew, same hourly rate.
Are you insured and AFRA accredited?
Yes. Easy Peasy Removals is an AFRA member, externally audited on insurance, equipment, driver conduct and complaints handling. We carry public liability and goods-in-transit cover, and we can issue a Certificate of Currency on request — usually the same day, which is what most buildings and body corporates ask for before they will release a lift booking.
