Local RemovalistsFor more than 10 years, Expert Movers has been moving homes and businesses, and we’re rated 4.9 from 5,000+ moves across Australia. You won’t wait on hold with a call centre or meet a hired crew on the day. Our movers are our own staff, trained to lift and load safely, and they drive our own trucks.
Manly sits on a narrow strip of land with the ocean on one side and the harbour on the other. Many locals live in unit blocks near the beach, while older houses and cottages fill the streets climbing the hills behind. With beachgoers, ferry crowds and limited street parking, the hard part of a Manly move is often getting the truck close. We look at your street, your building and the time of year before we set the start time.
As local removalists in Manly, we handle house removals and furniture removals for full homes, plus single-item moves and bed removals for one or two pieces. Smaller loads may suit our man with a van or two men and a truck service. We can take care of packing and unpacking, and our furniture assembly and disassembly covers beds, cots and wardrobes. For businesses, we offer office removals. Heavy or valuable items are covered by our piano removals, pool table removals, bathtub removals, antique removals and heavy item removals. If you need somewhere to keep things for a while, we also offer storage.
Manly is on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, about 11 km north-east of the CBD, with the postcode 2095. It sits within the Northern Beaches Council area. The Corso links the harbour side, with its ferry wharf, to the ocean beach, and the suburb runs from Queenscliff in the north to Shelly Beach in the south.
Key roads you’ll know:
Pittwater Road: runs north from Manly through Queenscliff towards Brookvale and the beaches.
Sydney Road: the main route west through Balgowlah, towards the Spit Bridge and the city.
Belgrave Street: the busy street near the ferry wharf and the bus interchange.
North Steyne: the beachfront road lined with apartments, cafes and parking.
Neighbouring suburbs include Fairlight, Balgowlah, Queenscliff, Manly Vale and Freshwater, so many moves here stay on the peninsula. From Manly, you can head north up the beaches or west towards Chatswood and the city.
Here’s how home type shapes the plan.
Beachfront unit blocks: Many have a lift, but it can be small and shared with residents coming back from the beach. We break down bulky pieces before the lift run and keep loads light so each trip is quick.
Older walk-up units: These often have narrow stairs and small landings. We bring a crew big enough to share the carries and wrap each piece so it doesn’t scrape the stairwell.
Cottages and interwar houses: Many have verandahs, small rooms and older floors. We put down floor runners and plan the order of rooms so the heaviest pieces go out first.
When you call for a quote, we’ll ask what type of home you’re leaving and the one you’re moving into.
Some Manly homes sit well above or below the street, with long runs of steps to the front door. Our furniture removalists in Manly time the carry for each room, bring enough movers to share the load and use straps and trolleys where the path allows. If a piece is too big for the steps, we’ll tell you when quoting so you can decide what to do with it.
Cafes, shops and small offices around the town centre can’t always close for a weekday move. Our commercial removalists in Manly can work early mornings or weekends, so your doors open as usual. We label every desk, computer and box by room and set up workstations again at the new site. Tell us about counters, display units or heavy equipment when you ask for a quote.
If you’re looking for the best removalists in Manly, a free written quote is the place to start. Tell us your home type, the date and any heavy or fragile items, like a surfboard rack, piano or antique cabinet. Your quote shows the hourly rate in writing, with travel and fuel upfront, and a weekend move costs the same as a weekday. Call or WhatsApp +61 489 292 094. Get your free quote now.
These are the problems we plan for most on Manly moves.
No trucks on The Corso: The Corso is a pedestrian mall, so homes and shops along it can’t be loaded from the front. We find the nearest legal loading spot and use trolleys for the carry, and you can check loading options with Northern Beaches Council.
Summer beach crowds: On warm weekends, beach traffic can fill streets and parking near the ocean side. We suggest an early start in summer, before the crowds arrive.
Spit Bridge openings: The Spit Bridge opens for boats at times, and traffic can bank up on the way to and from the city. We plan the drive around those times where we can.
Event-day road closures: Festivals and fun runs can close roads around the town centre. Check the council’s events calendar when you pick a date, and we’ll plan the route around any closures.
Timed parking near the beach: Much of the parking near the ocean is metered or time-limited. We ask where the truck can stop when quoting, and you can ask the council about short-term parking for your move.

Trusted by thousands — see what our customers say on Google
"I needed 3 commercial fridges picked up from Abbotsford and delivered to Craigieburn. Expert movers were extremely professional and with me every step of the way. They sent all their information through the WhatsApp and a breakdown of prices. Once I paid I got a receipt and confirmation of booking and a reference no. On the day of pick up the drivers personally called to confirm time of arrival as well as time there time of arrival. I recommend using this company as they were really thorough and assisted every step of the way. A really easy and friendly company to deal with. I will definitely be using this company again. Patricia 😊"

Common questions from customers moving in and around Manly.
You pay your quoted hourly rate multiplied by the hours worked. Time runs depot to depot, from when the truck leaves our depot until it returns, and a call-out fee and fuel charges apply, all shown in your written quote. If your move takes longer, the extra time is charged at the same quoted hourly rate.
Compare written quotes that show the hourly rate, travel and fuel, so you can see the full picture. A crew and truck sized to your load keeps the hours down. Packing before the crew arrives also saves time.
As a rough guide, a local two-bedroom move takes about 3 to 5 hours. Stairs, lift waits and the carry from the truck can add time. Send us photos and a room list for a closer estimate.
Yes, we wrap boards and load them so they don’t take knocks on the drive. Let us know how many boards, bikes and other bulky gear you have. We’ll make room for them in the truck.
Check that the company uses its own staff and gives you a written quote. We’re rated 4.9 from more than 5,000 moves, and you can read reviews on our website. Ask any questions when you call.
Yes, piano removals are one of our services. Tell us the piano type, the number of steps and whether there’s a lift at each end. We’ll bring the right crew and equipment for the job.
Two to four weeks ahead is a good guide, and earlier for summer weekends or end-of-month dates. Shorter notice can work if we have a crew free. Ask for a quote as soon as your date is set.
Yes, you can ask to reschedule, though a fee may apply depending on your booking. Customer cancellations carry charges, and if we cancel, you get a refund. All fees are set out upfront in your quote.
