Moving in Dural
Dural is where the Hills turns rural, and an acreage move is a genuinely different job. The properties along Carters Road, Fallon Drive and Derriwong Road sit on two, five, even ten-acre blocks, often behind a gate with an intercom, down a long gravel or unsealed driveway that can soften badly after rain. So the first thing we work out is whether the truck can reach the house at all, or whether we stage from a firmer point and shuttle the load in. There is usually more to move than a suburban home too: sheds and outbuildings full of tools and machinery, ride-on mowers, sometimes a workshop or stable. We bring the gear for a long carry from gate to door, plan around the weather and the ground, and give acreage moves the time they actually need rather than treating them like a quick suburban run. Round Corner and Old Northern Road keep it connected, but out on the blocks it is rural logistics.
Local access & logistics
Every Dural move starts with the access, because that is what decides the truck, the crew and the timing. Here is what we plan around in Dural:
- Semi-rural acreage (two to ten-acre blocks) along Carters Road, Fallon Drive and Derriwong Road
- Long gravel or unsealed driveways behind gates; ground softens after rain
- Sheds, outbuildings, machinery and ride-on mowers add to a standard household load
- Truck access assessed first; staging and shuttling from firmer ground is common

Acreage access
An acreage move is a different job, and it starts at the gate. Many blocks sit behind a gate and intercom, down a long gravel or unsealed driveway that can soften badly after rain, so the first thing we work out is whether the truck can safely reach the house or whether we stage from firmer ground and shuttle the load in. There is usually more to move than a suburban home, too — sheds, outbuildings, machinery and the like — so we bring the gear for a long carry, plan around the weather and the ground, and give the move the time acreage genuinely needs.

Dural removals: common questions
Can a removal truck get down my long Dural driveway?
Sometimes all the way, sometimes not. Long gravel or unsealed driveways can soften badly after rain, so we assess whether the truck can safely reach the house or whether we stage from firmer ground and shuttle the load in. Tell us about your driveway and the recent weather and we'll plan the approach.
Do you move sheds, machinery and outbuildings on acreage?
Yes. Acreage moves usually involve more than the house — sheds and outbuildings full of tools, ride-on mowers, sometimes a workshop. We bring the gear for a long carry from the buildings to the truck and plan the extra volume into the day.
Why does an acreage move take longer?
The carry from gate to door is long, the ground and weather have to be worked around, and there's simply more to move. We give acreage moves the time they genuinely need and quote them honestly up front rather than treating them like a quick suburban run.
How much does a Dural acreage move cost?
Our online-quote rates start at $200/hour for two movers and a truck ($250 for three, $400 for a larger crew with two trucks), and you get a clear indicative quote up front for your specific move. No surprises on the day.
