Removalists Earlwood

Quick & Easy Removals runs a removalists Earlwood service for the family houses, units and townhouses that sit between the Cooks River and Wolli Creek. Our crews leave from a depot in Greenacre, we are AFRA accredited and fully insured, and we have been moving Sydney households for more than 20 years. Earlwood is one of the suburbs covered by our removalists Inner West team, so whether you are moving two streets away or out of the state, the truck and crew are planned around your home before moving day.

Earlwood homes by the numbers

Earlwood is a suburb of family houses, and the census shows it clearly. The ABS 2021 Census QuickStats for Earlwood counted 18,053 people, and its occupied homes look quite different from the New South Wales average:

• 80.1 per cent are separate houses, against 65.6 per cent across the state.
• 11.5 per cent are flats or apartments, roughly half the NSW share of 21.7 per cent.
• 8.3 per cent are semi-detached, terrace or townhouse homes.
• Three bedrooms is the most common size at 43.9 per cent, and another 33.3 per cent of homes have four or more bedrooms.
• Just 20.6 per cent of homes are rented, compared with 32.6 per cent statewide, while 44.4 per cent are owned outright.

For Earlwood removalists, those figures point to fuller loads. Households here average 2.8 people against 2.6 for NSW, and an owner occupied house often comes with a garage, a shed or a spare room to empty as well as the living areas.

Removalists Earlwood: picking the right truck

Getting the truck size right at the start means your move is finished in one trip, with no repeat runs back to the old address. The fleet comes in seven published sizes, starting at 4 to 5 tonne and topping out at 65 to 70 cubic metres, and the final choice is made from your inventory when we quote.

Earlwood home	Truck to start from	What decides it
Unit or one bedroom flat	4 to 5 tonne truck, 20 to 25 cubic metres	Suited to an apartment or a small move
Two or three bedroom house or townhouse	8 to 9 tonne truck	Your inventory, including the garage and outdoor furniture
Four bedroom family house	10 to 12 tonne truck or larger	Confirmed at the quote once we know what is moving
Six bedroom home	65 to 70 cubic metre truck	The biggest in the fleet, sent with two professional removalists

With a third of Earlwood homes at four bedrooms or more, list the shed, the garage shelving and the outdoor setting when you ask for a price. Those are the items most often missed.

House removals in Earlwood: slopes, driveways and parking

Earlwood sits about 10 kilometres south-west of the Sydney CBD in the City of Canterbury-Bankstown. In the north east the suburb starts at a tall escarpment above the Cooks River, and the land flattens out further west. If your house has steps up from the footpath, a steep driveway or a long side path, tell us when you quote, because a long carry adds time.

The road rules also shape the day. Under rule 200 of the NSW Road Rules 2014, a heavy or long vehicle may only stop on a road in a built-up area for up to 1 hour, unless signs allow longer or the driver spends the whole time loading or unloading goods. Our truck arrives ready to load, works steadily and leaves when the job is done.

Formal kerbside space is a construction tool rather than a moving one. The City of Canterbury Bankstown work zone form reserves an area of roadway for vehicles associated with a construction site, and Council asks for applications at least 8 weeks before the date needed. For a one day house move these steps work better:

• Leave your own car outside the evening before, then move it when the truck arrives.
• Warn neighbours if your street is narrow or cars park on both sides.
• Mention timed parking, a bus stop or No Stopping signs near your door.
• Send a photo of the driveway and front entry with your quote request.

Furniture removals Earlwood families ask about

Larger homes carry larger pieces: dining suites, solid timber wardrobes, sofas, fridges and garden furniture. The crew brings dollies, trolleys, blankets, straps and ropes, and mattresses are shrink wrapped free when you book. Beds and some wardrobes may need to come apart to clear stairs and doorways, so list them in advance. Our furniture removals service covers bulky and awkward items, and an upright piano goes with our own standard removals team, not a subcontractor, as our piano removals page explains.

Storage for Earlwood moves

People search for storage in Earlwood when a settlement date and a moving date do not line up, or when a renovation needs empty rooms. With our modular storage service, the box is delivered to your address, packed by our crew, taken to our secure facility, then delivered back and unpacked when you are ready. Modular storage starts at 10 cubic metres, larger requirements are handled in the warehouse, and the facility has constant surveillance and restricted access.

Packing services for a full family home

A three or four bedroom house is a lot to pack around work and school. Our dedicated packing team can take on one room, just the breakables, or the whole house. Glassware, dinner settings and valuables are wrapped in packing paper and bubble wrap, hanging clothes go into port a robes and are rehung in the wardrobe at the other end, and every box is labelled by room. See our packing and unpacking service for the details. Packing yourself? Our moving box shop sells picture cartons for mirrors and glass table tops, plus a brightly coloured priority box for the kettle, chargers and first night essentials.

Short notice and same day movers in the Inner West

Searches for same day movers in the Inner West are common, so here is the honest answer: we do not promise same day moves, because it depends on how the trucks and crews are already booked. Call 1300 883 117 to check what is open at short notice, and read our guide to booking last minute removalists in Sydney for what to have ready. A weekday date gives you the best chance, since weekends and peak dates fill first.

Moving from Earlwood to the next suburb or the next state

Earlwood’s neighbours sit across its two waterways: Turrella and Bardwell Park lie to the south across Wolli Creek, with Canterbury and Hurlstone Park to the north across the Cooks River. We move households in all of them, and each has its own local page:

• Removalists Turrella
• Removalists Bardwell Park
• Hurlstone Park removalists
• Removalists in Canterbury
• Dulwich Hill removals
• Removalists Arncliffe

Our wider removalists Sydney service runs from the CBD out to the Central Coast, Blue Mountains, Wollongong and regional New South Wales. If you are leaving the state, our interstate removalists depart every week, you can choose a sole use truck, and packing or storage can be booked as part of the same job.

How your Earlwood move works

1. Ask for a quote. Use the free removal quote form, which works any time of day or night, or call 1300 883 117. The NSW Government’s advice on choosing a removalist is to always ask for a written quote and to give the removalist all the details of the move.
2. Phone or survey. We go through the inventory, the driveway and any steps by phone or with a short on site or video survey, and a fixed price can follow once those details are known.
3. Book the date. Pick a day that suits the settlement or lease. Sydney moves that start in a mid day window, between 11:00 and 14:00 or between 12:00 and 15:00, qualify for a reduced rate.
4. Moving day. The crew turns up with the truck picked for your house, wraps and loads the furniture, and places each labelled box in its matching room at the new address.
5. Unpack, if booked. Our team wipes down cupboard shelves, sets up bathrooms with toiletries and towels, then flattens the empty boxes and arranges their collection.

What goes into a removalist quote in Earlwood

Our local moves are charged by the hour, and the rate takes in the removalists, a fully equipped truck suited to the move, dollies, trolleys, blankets, straps and ropes, plastic mattress wrapping, and insurance. If a move runs past the estimate, it carries on at the agreed hourly rate rather than a penalty rate. On a fixed price job, big staircases, heavy pieces like pianos and pool tables, a long carry or no parking can add cost, and we raise those before moving day. A call out covers travel time from Greenacre. Our guide to removalist costs in Sydney walks through each factor, and optional removal insurance can be taken as restricted or full cover.

Removalists Earlwood FAQs

How do removalists in Earlwood work out the price?

Local moves are charged by the hour, and the rate covers the crew, a truck suited to the move, equipment, mattress wrapping and insurance. We can also quote a fixed price once your inventory, access and move details are clear. Steps, a steep driveway, heavy items or no parking near the door can add cost, and we tell you before moving day.

What size truck does a three bedroom house in Earlwood need?

Most three bedroom houses start from our 8 to 9 tonne truck, but the garage, shed and outdoor furniture can push the job into a 10 to 12 tonne truck or larger. Your inventory decides the final size, so everything goes in one trip.

Do you offer storage for Earlwood households?

Yes. A modular storage box comes to your address, our crew packs it, and it is held at a facility with constant surveillance and restricted access until we deliver it back and unpack. It starts at 10 cubic metres.

Can you do a same day move in Earlwood or the Inner West?

We do not promise same day moves, because availability depends on existing bookings. Call 1300 883 117 to check short notice availability. Weekdays usually have more openings than weekends.

Do I need a council permit for the removal truck in Earlwood?

Canterbury Bankstown work zones are for vehicles linked to a construction site and need at least 8 weeks notice, so they rarely suit a house move. A clear space near your door matters more. Hold a spot with your own car and tell us about timed parking, bus stops or No Stopping signs.

Can you move us from Earlwood to another state?

Yes. Interstate trucks leave Sydney every week, a sole use truck is available, and you can add packing and storage to the interstate job.
