Removalists Gladesville.
Victoria Road, the Bridge, and a suburb in the middle of everything.
Gladesville sits between Hunters Hill and Ryde on Victoria Road, and its position has always been its advantage. Less than 10 kilometres from the CBD in one direction and the same distance to Parramatta in the other, with Macquarie Park four kilometres to the north and the Parramatta River accessible via the Huntleys Point ferry wharf. The Gladesville Bridge connecting Gladesville to Drummoyne across the Parramatta River was, when it opened in 1964, the longest single-span concrete arch bridge in the world - a fact that most people in Gladesville know and most visitors to the bridge do not.
The housing stock covers the range you would expect from a suburb that serves as a connector between the Lower North Shore's prestige waterfront and the western suburbs' family character. A mix of waterfront homes and sizeable family homes on good blocks at one end, apartments along Victoria Road's main commercial strip in the middle, and townhouses and newer developments filling the gaps between. The main retail strip on Victoria Road has the cafes, restaurants, and local shops that make Gladesville a genuine activity centre rather than a pass-through suburb.
Victoria Road is the main arterial and carries significant through-traffic between the City and Parramatta throughout the day. It is not a practical loading option at any point during business hours. The residential streets running north and south from Victoria Road are where the loading positions come from for the majority of Gladesville moves.
Victoria Road runs too busy during the day for a removal truck to load from directly - the side streets off the main road are where the loading positions come from for most Gladesville jobs, and timing the approach around the arterial traffic makes a real difference to how the day runs. Jet has worked Gladesville and the surrounding Ryde-area suburbs regularly and plans the truck position before the morning starts.
The Gladesville Bridge corridor, Victoria Road, and the streets either side
For the family homes and larger properties on the residential streets north of Victoria Road - toward the Field of Mars Reserve and the quieter blocks running toward Ryde - the access environment is generally manageable. Wider streets, decent off-street parking on many properties, and the kind of established homes that reward proper planning rather than fast moving. We plan the load sequence during quoting so the truck is packed efficiently and the other end organised.
For the apartment buildings along Victoria Road and the streets near the Gladesville Bridge, Jet confirms strata requirements and lift access before the day. The Gladesville Bridge approach generates consistent through-traffic that makes the Victoria Road corridor between the bridge and the main shopping strip genuinely busy during peak hours. The loading position for any Victoria Road address comes from a side street.
The Huntleys Point ferry wharf - also marked on some maps as the Gladesville ferry wharf - serves the Parramatta River ferry service and connects Gladesville to the waterway network. For properties near the foreshore at the Huntleys Point end of the suburb, the same waterfront timing considerations apply as elsewhere on the Parramatta River - the ferry generates commuter traffic around the wharf during morning peak.

Two locals, not a call centre.
When you book a Gladesville move, Billy or Jet runs it personally - not a call centre handing you off to whoever's free. They know victoria Road loading well enough to plan the truck position and the day before it starts, not figure it out on the morning. On bigger jobs they bring in their own trusted, experienced team, but Billy or Jet is always on site - sometimes both of them. Either way, there's always a named person from The Movers Company accountable for your move. Every item is wrapped and carried properly, and your home - doorframes, walls, floors, at both ends - is protected the whole way through. Fully insured by QBE. No deposit, no cancellation fees.
