We time runs around Bruce Highway and Ross River Road traffic. In the CBD, The Strand and North Ward, we also work to strict lift bookings and body corporate rules. We plan around your window.
In older suburbs like Railway Estate, West End and North Ward, high-set homes with steep stairs, narrow hallways and limited street parking come with the job, so we bring the right equipment for the access. We know moving is stressful. Tell us your deadline, your stairs and your lift window, and we'll plan around them.
Learn more about usTownsville Suburbs
From the city to the suburbs, we've got Townsville covered.
201 suburbs across Townsville
We've done house, unit and office moves right across Townsville, so we know the city well. We know which suburbs have awkward access, which buildings keep tight lift windows, and how to load a truck so nothing shifts on the way.
Insurance Is Included
Every move includes goods-in-transit and public liability insurance at no extra cost. Cover starts when we begin loading and ends when the last item is placed at your new address. Want to see exactly what's covered? Ask for the certificate any time before you book and we'll send it through.
A Quote You Can Check
You'll get a written quote before moving day, based on your actual inventory and the access at both addresses. We don't add a fuel levy at the end. If stairs or a long carry will affect the price, we'll tell you before you book, not after. If your move runs a little over or under our estimate, we'll explain how that works in your quote, so you know what to expect. You only pay for the crew and time your move needs.
Every move has three paths. Here is what each one asks of you.
10 years of jobs, itemised the way we label a truck.

Juan and Kanga did an amazing job helping us move. They were completely careful with our belongings and were even considerate enough to plug our fridge and hook our washing machine while placing them to make it easier for us. We had so many things and they managed to fit it all in the truck, which was impressive. I would recommend them 100%
“
I had lots of stuff left at my father house that I was too mentally and physically exhausted to do. So I looked around and saw these movers and boy, did they not disappoint. Regardless of how ridiculous my stuff was, they did great and without complaining. So I recommend them, greatly. Andre and Vinny did a great job! There before, during and after the removals.

We recently used Ozwide Movers and couldn’t be happier with the service. They were the best ‘bang for your buck’ offering by way of inclusions and pricing out of all the quotes we received, communicated really well leading up to the move, and arrived right on time.

I used Oz Wide Movers, and André and Alex from Brisbane were outstanding. The move was smooth and completely stress-free. Communication was excellent from start to finish, they were very pleasant to deal with, and nothing was ever a problem. Very fair pricing and well above my expectations, the best removalists I’ve experienced.

My partner and I have just moved everything out of our storage unit into our new unit with the help of Oz Wide. We had the pleasure of being moved by Junior and Junior who were on time (at a time of day that suit us best), very quick, very careful and really easy to communicate with. They turned an extremely stressful experience into a manageable one, would HIGHLY recommend! 🙏 🙌 👏

Same answer every time. Here it is in advance so your quote is the only thing left to ask about.
Indicative specs, confirm exact dimensions at booking.
Moving house in Townsville can be stressful, and choosing the wrong removalist only adds to it. Here's what to look for before you book:
A good removalist explains stair charges, travel time from the depot and fuel in plain words. Ours: a written quote before moving day, no fuel levy, and stairs explained upfront.
Skip the testimonials on their own website and check Google or Trustpilot instead. Look for recent feedback on local Townsville moves, tight city access, and how the team handles sudden afternoon downpours.
Real estate keys rarely get handed over on time. Look for a team with weekend or afternoon slots. This helps if your settlement date shifts. It also helps if your apartment’s lift booking window closes.
Make sure they use heavy-duty hydraulic tail-lifts for big appliances. Use thick padded blankets to prevent scratches. Use proper transit straps to keep items secure on the highway.
At Ozwide Movers, we tick every one of these boxes for Townsville removals local expertise, transparent pricing, fully insured teams, and end-to-end services tailored to your move.
Get Instant QuoteWhat it's actually like to settle in the suburbs, the seasons, and the day-to-day details worth knowing before your move.
Townsville sits between Castle Hill and the Ross River, and that shapes the move. Northern and western suburbs like Kirwan and Thuringowa often have larger blocks and easier truck access. Inner suburbs like Railway Estate, West End and North Ward have older high-set homes on narrower streets. Many people move here for work, study or a posting, so it pays to book your lease and your removalists early.
May to October is the dry season, which is cooler and makes for an easier day. From November to April, expect heat, humidity and wet-season storms. Cyclone season runs through summer, so allow some flexibility in your dates. If you're moving in summer, book an early start so the heavy lifting is done before the heat builds.
High-set homes in Railway Estate, West End and North Ward often have steep stairs, narrow hallways and limited street parking. Apartment buildings in the CBD, The Strand and North Ward usually need a lift or loading-dock booking, and the body corporate may need notice. Cross-town trips also need planning around the Bruce Highway, Ross River Road and Stuart Drive. Tell us about the stairs, driveways and parking at both addresses, and we'll match the crew and price to the job.
Housing costs have climbed, and many families now look to outer suburbs for more space. Check current rent and sale data before you commit. If you're moving into or out of a low-lying area near the Ross River or the coast, check the council flood maps. You can also ask us about short-term storage if your move-in date might slip.
Your quote depends on how much you're moving, the crew and truck we send, how long the job will take, and the access at both addresses, including stairs, lifts and long carries. We confirm it in writing before moving day, with no fuel levy added later. Send us your addresses and details and we'll give you a clear answer.
House, office and furniture removals, packing and unpacking, short and long-term storage, interstate moves with backloading, and small moves with two movers and a truck.
Greater Townsville, including the CBD, North Ward, South Townsville, Hermit Park, Mundingburra, Kirwan and Thuringowa. We also run interstate to Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and beyond.
As early as you can, especially for weekends, month-end and the busy summer months. If a lease or settlement sets your date, book as soon as you have it.
Yes. We move apartments across Townsville, including CBD, The Strand and North Ward buildings with strict lift bookings and body corporate rules. Book your lift with building management, tell us your window, and we'll plan the load around it and protect the lift and floors.
Sometimes, depending on crew and truck availability. Call 1300766520 to check. For a guaranteed date, book ahead.
