Affordable removalist on the Central Coast with no hidden fees
Updated 17 September 2026
An affordable removalist on the Central Coast is one whose quote still holds when the truck is in the driveway. Glide Move is based on the Coast: $170 an hour incl. GST, two professionals, 28 m³ / 4.5 tonne truck. Wrapping, assembly, insurance and travel between the two properties are in that rate. No deposit. No cancellation fee.
Beach streets, steep drives and tight parking in Terrigal, Avoca and Umina add time if we are not told — they do not add a surprise “access fee”. That is the difference between affordable and cheap.
