Removalists Oxford Falls.

Named after two waterfalls on Middle Creek - one of the smallest and most secluded localities on the Northern Beaches.

Oxford Falls is one of Sydney's smallest and most secluded suburbs, 20 kilometres north-east of the CBD in the Northern Beaches Council area. With a population of only 265 residents across 6.5 square kilometres, it is a genuinely low-density bushland locality rather than a conventional suburb in any residential sense. The name comes from two waterfalls on Middle Creek, which flows north to meet Oxford Creek. Alexander Bowen was granted 200 acres here in 1878, which he named Bloodwood Gully. Oxford Falls was gazetted as the suburb's official name in 1902. The Wakehurst Parkway that bisects Oxford Falls is named after John de Vere Loder, 2nd Baron Wakehurst, who served as Governor of New South Wales from 1937 to 1946.

Oxford Falls's residential character is almost entirely acreage and semi-rural - large blocks, long driveways, established gardens, and the kind of accumulated belongings that come from families who have been in the same property for a long time.

Oxford Falls has become known among mountain biking enthusiasts as one of the best trail networks on the Northern Beaches, with Garigal National Park providing a network of trails for downhill and free-ride riding. The suburb borders Beacon Hill to the south, Cromer to the east, Belrose to the north, and Frenchs Forest to the west and south-west. The Wakehurst Parkway runs north-east through the suburb toward Narrabeen Lakes, and Oxford Falls Road connects the suburb to the broader local road network.

265 residents and no through roads - Oxford Falls is genuinely off the beaten track, and a crew that hasn't been there before will spend the first ten minutes working out an approach Billy or Jet already knows. The housing is predominantly large blocks - acreage and semi-rural properties with long driveways and gardens, the kind that take more time than they look on paper.

Wakehurst Parkway access, a tiny residential population, and what a move in Oxford Falls involves

Oxford Falls is unusual as a suburb page because the vast majority of its 6.5 square kilometres is bushland or national park - the residential section is a relatively small cluster of properties. Most Oxford Falls moves are either family homes near the grammar school or properties in the quiet residential streets off Oxford Falls Road and the surrounding connectors. Wakehurst Parkway is the main access road for a truck, and Oxford Falls Road provides the connection to the residential streets. The parkway carries moderate through-traffic between Frenchs Forest and Narrabeen and is manageable at most times.

The residential properties in Oxford Falls tend to be larger than average, sitting on the kind of blocks that come with a genuinely secluded bush setting. Driveways can be long and some properties have gates or approaches that require coordination before moving day. Billy confirms access and driveway arrangements at quoting stage for any Oxford Falls property, and for properties closer to the Garigal boundary the vegetation and terrain can make the access more specific than it appears on a map.

The mountain biking trails in the national park sections of Oxford Falls attract visitors on weekends, generating some traffic on the access roads near the trailheads. For moves on weekends, Billy plans the truck approach to avoid the peak trail-user arrival times in the morning. The suburb's small population means moves here are infrequent, but Billy has worked the Forest District and Wakehurst Parkway corridor throughout his career and knows the access points and road conditions across the whole area.

Common questions about moving in Oxford Falls

The main approach is via Wakehurst Parkway and Oxford Falls Road, both of which are manageable. The specific challenge is the individual properties - many have long driveways, some have gates, and the bushland setting means vegetation can affect truck clearance on some approach roads. Billy confirms all of this at quoting stage.

Around 265 according to the 2021 census, making it one of the smallest residential suburbs in Sydney. Most of the suburb's area is national park or native bushland. Moves here are infrequent but the access planning is more specific than in denser suburbs.

We charge by the hour. Longer driveways, bush access, and gate arrangements are factored honestly into the estimate. Get in touch for a clear quote.

Two locals, not a call centre.

When you book a Oxford Falls move, Billy or Jet runs it personally - not a call centre handing you off to whoever's free. They know Oxford Falls' rural road access 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.
