How a NUSS Move Works
Three clear steps, with the scope, timing and quoted costs confirmed before moving day.
Book a Free Home Survey
A NUSS consultant can visit your Sydney home or complete a video survey to assess what needs to be moved, understand access requirements and discuss any packing, storage or specialist handling you may need.
From there, NUSS prepares a written, obligation-free quote based on the assessed scope of your move. There are no call centres, so you deal directly with a consultant who understands the details.
We Plan Your Move Together
Your consultant coordinates the agreed schedule, packing, storage and other move requirements, giving you one central point of contact throughout the process.
Optional transit and storage insurance can also be discussed where required. Before moving day, the details of the move are confirmed so you know what has been arranged and what to expect.
Move Day, Handled with Care
On moving day, the removal team arrives with the equipment and packing materials required for the agreed work.
Furniture and belongings are protected, loaded and transported according to the move plan, with delivery coordinated around the access requirements and arrangements confirmed in advance.
About Nuss
A Sydney Family. Since 1892.
1892
From Lane Cove, Heinrich Nuss began moving goods for local Sydney residents with a single horse and cart, establishing the service that later generations of the Nuss family would continue.
1920s
The second generation introduced motor vehicles, allowing NUSS to transport larger loads and serve more Sydney households as the city expanded. Lane Cove remained at the heart of the business.
1980s
NUSS expanded into international relocations, building the overseas capability and industry relationships that would become an important part of the business.
Today
The fourth generation of the Nuss family continues the business today. With a fleet of purpose-built vehicles, over 100,000 moves completed and local, interstate and international capabilities, NUSS continues to operate from the Sydney business established in 1892.

Great service from the team at Nuss! James and Will were very professional and took a lot of care when handling our items. Came early and loaded the truck within 1.5 hours. Would recommend to anyone looking for removalists. Will definitely use their services again!
Nuss helped me move house in to a unit in the city. We had store our furniture for a month, then last minute there was an issue with moving in. Nuss stepped up took control and offered up an amazing solution. We couldn't have been happier. Highly recommend.
From the start I was impressed by the friendly professionalism of the staff at Nuss. On the packing day, Tony and his team could not have been more helpful. In addition, they were amazingly efficient and caring of our possessions. Our household was in storage for over a month and on moving in day we were pleased to see the same friendly team arrive and efficiently unload our furniture and boxes. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
We moved from a 4 bedroom home on a very elevated block with 50 steps to the front door to an apartment... after living in this home for 52 years it was quite a stressful and emotional time for us... but this team of very strong I professionals were amazing! Their pleasant manner and can do attitude made it so much easier.
After our experience today would recommend this company without hesitation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to some of the most common questions about moving with NUSS.
How much do removalists cost in Sydney?
The cost of a Sydney move depends on factors including the size of your home, access, distance and whether you require services such as packing or storage. After a home or video survey, NUSS provides a written, obligation-free quote based on the assessed scope. If the scope later changes, such as additional furniture, different access, added packing or storage, or a change of date, the quoted price may also change.
How far in advance should I book a removalist in Sydney?
For a local Sydney move, booking around four to six weeks ahead is recommended where possible. Interstate and international moves are better planned around eight to twelve weeks in advance.
December through February can be particularly busy, so booking earlier gives you a better chance of securing your preferred dates.
Are my belongings insured during a NUSS move?
Insurance is not automatically included with a NUSS move.
Optional transit and storage insurance can be arranged where required. Comprehensive replacement-value cover may be available for eligible shipments packed by NUSS, subject to the policy terms and exclusions, while different conditions apply to owner-packed goods.
Your NUSS Move Manager can explain the available process and provide the relevant insurance documentation.
Do NUSS removalists pack as well as move?
Yes. NUSS offers professional packing and unpacking as part of its moving services.
Packing can be arranged for your entire home or selected belongings, depending on what you need. Your packing requirements can be discussed during the survey and included within the scope of your written quote.
