Removalists Gulliver

Gulliver is a no-frills western suburb of Townsville that offers some of the most affordable housing in the inner ring. It sits between Currajong and Cranbrook, with Woolcock Street forming its northern boundary and providing a direct run to the western corridor and beyond. The suburb has a strong working-class character with many residents employed in trades, transport and the nearby industrial areas. Gulliver is practical rather than pretty, the blocks are big, the homes are solid and the streets are wide enough to park a boat, a caravan and a truck without anyone blinking.

Housing in Gulliver is predominantly 1970s and 1980s lowset brick and tile on large flat blocks, with a handful of older elevated timber homes scattered through the eastern streets. Many properties have oversized sheds, carports with boat storage and extended driveways for work vehicles. The homes themselves are straightforward, three bedrooms, open-plan living and either a single or double garage. Some of the larger blocks have been subdivided with granny flats or secondary dwellings at the rear, which can affect truck turnaround space.

Gulliver has excellent truck access thanks to the wide residential streets and flat terrain. Woolcock Street along the northern edge is a major east-west arterial and our primary access route. The internal streets like Dalton Street and Gulliver Street are generous enough for our largest truck to turn around in a cul-de-sac. The only access complication is the occasional property with a rear granny flat where we need to navigate past sheds and stored boats to reach the second dwelling. We confirm the layout before every Gulliver job.

Gulliver moves are fast and straightforward, flat blocks, big sheds and lowset homes with wide doorways. R2G handles the full job including chest freezers, workbenches and all the gear that accumulates in Gulliver sheds. We use Woolcock Street for quick access to the western suburbs and plan our route to avoid any backtracking. If your property has a granny flat or rear dwelling, we check the access path before moving day.
