Removalists Huntleys Point.
Named after the man who built Point House in 1851 - now the western anchor of the Gladesville Bridge, with one of Sydney's tiniest populations.
Huntleys Point is a small suburb on the Lower North Shore in the Municipality of Hunter's Hill, sitting on the northern shore of the Parramatta River roughly 9 kilometres from the Sydney CBD. Huntleys Point is named after Alfred Reynolds Huntley, who purchased the land here and built Point House in 1851. Huntley had arrived in the colony with his family in 1836, following his father Dr Robert Huntley, who had first occupied land in Braidwood now known as Huntley's Flats. Alfred Huntley went on to open Turkish baths in Bligh Street in the city - on the site of what is now Adyar House - before becoming chief engineer for the Australian Gas Light Company.
Most of what exists in Huntleys Point is entirely detached - substantial homes on waterfront and near-waterfront blocks, well-appointed and long-held. Moves here tend to involve significant accumulated furniture, art, and belongings from long-established households with years of accumulated belongings.
The peninsula geography means truck access is limited to one approach. Most properties have steep or narrow driveways given the waterfront topography, and the streets are tight enough that the truck position needs to be confirmed before leaving the depot. Parking for the crew is also limited - that gets factored into the plan before the day starts.
One of Sydney's smallest suburbs by any measure - 131 homes on a peninsula means access is limited, and Billy or Jet knows which way to approach before the truck leaves.
Gladesville Bridge and Tarban Creek Bridge access, and what moving in Huntleys Point involves
Huntleys Point's position at the foot of the Gladesville Bridge means the suburb has genuinely excellent road connectivity despite its tiny size and residential character. Victoria Road approaches from the city side across the Gladesville Bridge, while the Tarban Creek Bridge connects north into Hunters Hill and the broader peninsula. For any Huntleys Point move, Billy uses these bridge connections as the primary route regardless of direction, since they offer faster and more reliable access than navigating the smaller Hunters Hill peninsula roads.
Given the suburb's tiny population and correspondingly small number of streets, most properties in Huntleys Point are within easy reach of the main bridge approaches, and access is generally straightforward by Lower North Shore standards. The ferry wharf precinct generates some local foot traffic around ferry arrival and departure times, which is worth factoring into timing for any move very close to the wharf itself.
Because Huntleys Point sits right at a major bridge junction, traffic on Victoria Road and the bridge approaches can be heavy during peak commuting hours in both directions. Billy times the truck approach around this when a Huntleys Point job falls during peak periods, since the bridge traffic affects the practical drive time more than the suburb's own internal streets do.

Two locals, not a call centre.
When you book a Huntleys Point move, Billy or Jet runs it personally - not a call centre handing you off to whoever's free. They know the narrow peninsula streets 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.
