Ellis Beach's Local Moving Specialists
Ellis Beach is a picturesque coastal community nestled between lush green ranges and the Coral Sea, roughly 24 kilometres north of Cairns. It is best known for its sheltered beach, beachfront caravan park and the dramatic headland scenery that marks the southern approach to the Port Douglas corridor. The area attracts retirees, lifestyle enthusiasts and holiday home buyers looking for an idyllic tropical setting without the premium prices of Palm Cove or Port Douglas.
Properties in Ellis Beach are typically coastal homes and beachside units, a number of which form part of the beachfront resort and residential development along the shoreline. Elevated homes and properties with steep beach-access stairs are common, and the combination of salt air and tropical humidity means extra care is always required when protecting furniture and belongings during transit.
Ellis Beach sits in a dramatic coastal landscape where the ranges descend steeply to the sea, creating a narrow strip of habitable land along the shoreline. The Captain Cook Highway passes through the area and is the only practical access route for removal trucks. Our drivers are experienced on this section of the highway and are familiar with the turnoffs and local roads that serve individual residential properties in the community.
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 Ellis Beach Move
Wrap all coastal furniture against salt air and humidity.
Ellis Beach's beachfront position means furniture is exposed to elevated salt air during loading and unloading, particularly for properties with open deck areas. We use high-quality furniture blankets and plastic wrap on all timber, metal and upholstered items to prevent salt corrosion and moisture ingress during transit.
Plan highway moves around tourist traffic peaks.
The Captain Cook Highway through Ellis Beach carries significant tourist traffic heading north to Port Douglas, particularly on weekends and Queensland school holidays. Weekday morning departures give our trucks the smoothest run on this section of highway and reduce total move time and cost.
Identify safe truck parking at your property in advance.
The residential area at Ellis Beach has limited off-highway parking, and our trucks need a safe, level area to park while loading or unloading. Identifying the best parking position before moving day and advising our team at booking helps us plan efficiently and prevents any highway shoulder parking issues.
Consider our storage solution for staged beach moves.
If you are transitioning between a holiday property and a permanent home, our secure Cairns City storage facility is an ideal intermediate solution. The relatively short distance from Ellis Beach means transfer costs are manageable, and your belongings are kept safe in climate-controlled conditions until your permanent destination is ready.
