Removalists in Annandale
Annandale is grand Victorian terraces and semis on wide tree-lined streets. A 2-bed terrace move is $750–$1,050 + GST with two movers at $150/hr; a 3-bed is $1,050–$1,470 + GST on the 3-mover crew. The variable is the tall three-storey terraces on the "Witches' Houses" end — extra stairs add time.

Moving in Annandale
What Annandale actually involves.
Annandale 2038 sits between Leichhardt and Glebe, in Inner West Council. The housing is dominated by Victorian terraces and semis — some of them grand three-storey homes, especially the heritage "Witches' Houses" on Johnston Street. Streets are wider than most Inner West suburbs, which helps truck access.
Johnston Street is the main spine, running from Parramatta Road down to Rozelle Bay. It carries buses and traffic but is wider than a typical terrace street, so truck staging is usually workable. Booth Street and Nelson Street are the quieter residential routes.
The three-storey terraces are the timing variable here — a full-house load-out from a 3-storey Victorian with a narrow internal staircase takes meaningfully longer than a 2-storey equivalent. Many blocks have rear-lane access off the service lanes; tell us on the quote call.

Representative move
A typical Annandale move.
3-bed terrace · off Johnston Street · 6.5 hours · $1,365 + GST
A common Annandale job: a grand 3-bedroom terrace off Johnston Street, three levels with the tall narrow staircase those big Annandale terraces are known for.
Three movers and a truck, six and a half hours — 6.5 × $210 = $1,365 + GST. Three levels of stairs is the whole job here; the extra hand keeps the carries moving up and down.
Pattern: for the tall terraces around Annandale and Johnston Street, three movers suits a full three-level home. The staircase, not the floor count, sets the hours.

Annandale FAQ
Annandale removalist FAQs.
How much does an Annandale removalist cost in 2026?
A 2-bed Annandale terrace with two movers is $750–$1,050 + GST at $150/hr over 5–7 hours. A 3-bed on our 3-mover crew runs $1,050–$1,470 + GST. Grand 3-storey Victorians run $1,680–$2,100 + GST.
Can you handle the three-storey "Witches' Houses" terraces?
Yes — the tall Johnston Street Victorians are a regular move type. Narrow internal staircases and the extra floor add time; we bring straps and quick-disassembly tools and quote the full hours range.
Do you cover Glebe, Leichhardt and Rozelle?
Yes. Same rates across the central Inner West terrace belt.
Is Johnston Street hard for a truck?
Less than most Inner West strips — it's a wider road, so staging is usually workable. We plan around bus routes and peak traffic.
Are you insured?
Every job carries public liability and goods-in-transit insurance. Certificate of currency on request.
