The Cooks River, walk-ups, and the Canterbury Road corridor

Canterbury runs along the Cooks River, with the station and light rail at its heart and the busy Canterbury Road arterial cutting through. The housing is a real mix: older walk-up unit blocks, California bungalows on quiet streets, and newer apartments near the station. The walk-ups rarely have lifts, so upper-floor moves mean stairs — we crew and price for that up front. On the Canterbury Road side, parking and truck access take planning around the traffic, which we sort before we arrive.

Older stock, newer builds, and everything in between

A Canterbury move could be a first-floor walk-up near the river, a bungalow toward Hurlstone Park, or a new apartment by the station. We handle each differently — stair gear and protected staircases for the walk-ups, lift bookings for the newer blocks, and careful handling of older, sometimes narrow, bungalow doorways. If you’re moving to or from a neighbour like Campsie, the short run keeps things quick and keeps travel off your bill.

What a Canterbury move costs

Straightforward half-hourly pricing plus GST, with a minimum of 2 hours plus a 30-minute travel call-out:

Day	Rate (2 movers + truck)
Monday – Friday	$68 + GST per half hour
Saturday – Sunday	$78 + GST per half hour

That’s for two movers and a fully equipped truck. Walk-up units with several flights of stairs can add time — we factor it into your estimate up front. Items over 100kg may need a third mover at an extra $50/hr + GST.
