Cow Bay's Local Moving Specialists

Cow Bay is one of the first communities north of the Daintree River ferry, nestled within the heart of the Daintree Rainforest World Heritage Area. Residents here live in genuine rainforest immersion alongside one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on earth, and we have specialist experience in the unique logistics of moving across the Daintree River and into this extraordinary part of Far North Queensland.
Properties at Cow Bay range from eco-retreat style homes built with minimal footprint among the rainforest trees to more established residential homes on cleared blocks. Access involves a sealed but narrow road north of the Daintree River ferry, and we select trucks that can navigate both the ferry crossing and the winding rainforest roads beyond.
Every Cow Bay move requires crossing the Daintree River cable ferry, which imposes weight and length limits on vehicles. We select appropriately sized trucks for all ferry crossings and plan our arrival at the ferry to minimise waiting time. North of the ferry, the road to Cow Bay passes through dense tropical rainforest with limited passing places. During the wet season, fallen trees and road washouts can occasionally close sections of this route, and we maintain close contact with local road authorities in the days before your scheduled move.
Our modern trucks are clean, well-maintained, and stocked with premium moving equipment including furniture blankets, tie-down straps, dollies, and protective padding. You won't find bare timber floors or loose loads with R2G.

Tips for a Smooth Cow Bay Move
The Daintree ferry is non-negotiable.
There is no bridge across the Daintree River. Every vehicle accessing Cow Bay must use the cable ferry, which has weight and size restrictions. We will never attempt to use a vehicle that exceeds these limits — safety and ferry compliance are always our first priority.
Wet season road closures north of the ferry.
The road from the Daintree ferry to Cow Bay can be closed by fallen trees or washouts during severe wet season weather. We monitor forecasts closely and will contact you at least 24 hours before your move if there is a significant closure risk.
Off-grid properties need additional planning.
Many Cow Bay properties are off-grid or have limited vehicle access. Tell us about your power supply, water crossing, or any unusual access features when you book so we can plan the right equipment and approach for your specific home.
Schedule as a full-day job.
Cow Bay is 115km from Cairns with the Daintree ferry crossing added to the journey. These moves always require a full day. Do not plan for an early afternoon completion — we allocate the full day to ensure nobody is rushed on the remote return drive.
