Moving around Manly & Freshwater: what to expect
Manly, Fairlight and Queenscliff are walk-up country. Three-storey art deco and 1960s blocks with a shared entry, a narrow landing and no lift are the norm, so we deliver nested stacks to the ground-floor entry and leave a dolly. Carrying two or three empty crates up a flight beats hauling a flat pack of cardboard you still have to tape together.
Parking is the part people underestimate. Around the Corso, East Esplanade and Freshwater village most kerbside space is metered or two-hour, and in summer it is gone by nine. A booked two-hour window in the early morning is the difference between a ten-minute drop and the driver circling. If your building has a loading zone or a driveway we can use, tell us.
Balgowlah, Seaforth, Clontarf and North Curl Curl swing back to houses, often on a hillside with a run of steps down from the road or a garage tucked under the house. We work to the door rather than the kerb, and if there are more than about fifteen steps we bring a second person instead of leaving you a stack at the top.
Salt, sand and a sudden shower do nothing to a sealed crate with an attached lid, which is the main reason people around here stop buying cardboard once they have tried it.
