Family home moves in the Hills
A 4-bed Castle Hill house is a serious load: fifteen-plus years of family life, most of it stored where the bedroom count cannot see it. This is the move we built the business around.
What a full-house move includes
- A proper sizing conversation before the day: rooms, garage, roof space, backyard and access at both ends
- The crew the load actually needs, at its published hourly rate
- Padded blanket wrap on furniture as standard; beds down and up again
- Floor and doorway protection at both houses
- Loading planned so the rooms you need first come off the truck first
- One trip on two-truck days: nothing left waiting at the old house
How the day runs
- The crew walks the house.
Ten minutes with you before a box moves: what goes, what stays, what is fragile, which rooms first. The plan from your quote gets checked against the real thing.
- Wrap and load, room by room.
Furniture is blanket-wrapped as it leaves the room, not at the truck. On a two-truck day the crew splits: two carrying, two packing the trucks so the load rides tight and safe.
- The garage and outdoors go in the plan, not at the end.
Storage walls, the trampoline and the pool gear are loaded where they fit the stack, not crammed in at five o'clock. This is the part bedroom-count quotes get wrong.
- One trip across the district.
Both trucks travel together, and the unload runs to the same room-by-room plan in reverse. Beds go up first so the day ends in a house you can sleep in.
Which crew does a family home need?
| Typical home | Crew | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| 3-bed house, light storage | 3 movers + 1 truck | $350/hr |
| 4-bed house, real garage load | 4 movers + 2 trucks | $500/hr |
| 5-bed or 4-bed + rumpus/study | 4 movers + 2 trucks | $500/hr |
The bigger crew is not an upsell; it is arithmetic. A load past one truck's capacity either travels twice (the clock running the whole time) or travels once on two trucks. One trip or two? walks through the numbers, and the Two-Truck Test answers it for your house in a minute.
Asked about family moves
Do you move pianos and pool tables?
Yes, with the right crew size and equipment planned in advance. Tell us in the quote form so the day is planned around it; a piano changes the carry plan more than another bedroom does.
Can we leave clothes in drawers?
Light soft items in sturdy drawers are usually fine; anything heavy, fragile or spillable should come out. The crew makes the call piece by piece on the walk-through, and will tell you straight.
What about split-level houses and steep driveways?
Castle Hill sits on a ridge, so split levels and sloped drives are normal work here, not a surprise. Mention them in the quote so the carry time is budgeted honestly.
