Harbourside family suburb across the Northbridge span, with large homes on steep blocks.
The Northbridge job sheet is dominated by large family homes, downsizers after long tenure, and high-value inventories. Driveway length and gradient decide truck size across the north shore far more often than the size of the house does. We quote that honestly up front rather than adding it on the day, and at 9km from our Double Bay office the travel leg stays small.
9km from our Double Bay office — one of the shortest runs we make, and it shows in the quote.
Same crews, same trucks, same hourly rates — whichever of these your Northbridge move turns out to be. Ordered by what we do most often in established family 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 Northbridge they are shaped by permit & time-limited parking.
1
Instant estimate, then a human check
Enter your Northbridge 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
Levels, driveway and the carry distance
Three questions decide a Northbridge quote: how many levels, can a truck park close to the door, and how long is the carry. We ask those before we ask how many bedrooms, because a single-level house with a straight driveway and a two-storey with a long side path are very different days at the same bedroom count.
4
Truck sized to the parking, permits sorted
Where Northbridge 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. Your crew leaves Double Bay Office minutes away, so the truck is at your door at the start of your window rather than an hour into it.
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 Northbridge move in about two minutes.
Steep driveways and split-level homes are the norm. Several streets are narrow with restricted turning at the end.

What it costs
Northbridge 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 Northbridge
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 Northbridge job.
What you are comparingEasy Peasy · AFRA memberNon-accredited operator
Insurance that actually covers your goods✓Full public liability and goods-in-transit cover, externally audited as an AFRA member.✗Often no goods-in-transit cover at all — the quote is cheap because the risk sits with you.
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.
Easy Peasy is an AFRA member and a registered NDIS provider, externally audited on insurance, equipment, driver conduct and complaints handling. The same standards apply to a one-bedroom Northbridge flat as to a full house.
Harbourside prestige plus the established family belt up the Pacific Highway.
Northbridge is one of the suburbs we cover across North Shore. Same crews, same trucks and the same hourly rates apply right across the region, so if you are moving between North Shore suburbs — or out of North Shore entirely — it is the same team either way. The North Shore page lists every suburb we cover in this part of Sydney.
What should I know about truck access in Northbridge?
Steep driveways and split-level homes are the norm. Several streets are narrow with restricted turning at the end. Tell us the street when you book and we will send the right truck rather than the biggest one.
How much does a Northbridge 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. Northbridge is 9km 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 Northbridge?
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 Northbridge moves run on a 10T at around $210/hr, and at 9km 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 Northbridge move take?
A typical Northbridge job runs 5–8 hours, based on the established family 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 Northbridge?
Yes, and it is worth planning. Permit and time-limited parking around Northbridge 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 Northbridge?
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 Northbridge do you also cover?
All of them. We regularly move between Northbridge and North Sydney, St Leonards, Naremburn, Neutral Bay, Wollstonecraft and Crows Nest. 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.
