Island moves handled end-to-end — barge coordination via Redland Bay, tide-aware timings, shuttle loads and tight-access care for smaller Karragarra blocks.
Karragarra Island is small, quiet and super liveable — but getting a full home across still needs proper planning. We build your move around ferry and barge windows out of Redland Bay, stage loads on the mainland and keep things light and efficient so you’re not paying for wasted truck time. New to our services? Start with Redland City removalists and how to choose the best movers so you know exactly what to expect from an island move.
If you’re still in the planning and research phase, use our island guides: check out planning a move to the islands of Redland City for timelines, checklists and common mistakes to avoid. Shorter mainland hops and feeder moves into Redland Bay are covered via our local moving services and broader South East Queensland removalist routes.
Karragarra is big on lifestyle — smaller blocks, established gardens, sheds, kayaks, fishing gear and outdoor setups that actually get used. That often means tight driveways, limited street parking and a mix of bulky and awkward items. We send a crew that’s used to island access: sliders and dollies for steep paths, doorway and floor protection inside, plus coastal-grade wrapping for furniture, white goods and outdoor pieces.
Want a realistic idea of what your Karragarra move might cost before locking in dates? Run through Redland City moving costs — volume, access, ferry timing and how much packing you want us to handle are the big levers that change your quote.
Every extra minute we spend hunting for boxes on the mainland or at the jetty is time you could have already been on the water. Packing well means we can load fast, clear the barge on schedule and get you set up in fewer trips. Use: top packing tips for moving home, decluttering tips before you move and how to label boxes for easy unpacking to keep things organised.
On the day, follow managing moving day like a pro so the crew, barge and ferries all line up. Once you’ve landed on Karragarra and started to settle in, work through updating your address after moving home. Moving fragile pieces across the bay? pack fragile items safely or let us handle it with a full or partial pre-packing service.
We regularly move households between Karragarra, Lamb, Macleay and Russell Island, so we understand early ferries for work, school routines and how quickly a delayed barge can blow up the rest of your day. Tell us how much you want to do yourself and how much you want us to take off your plate — we’ll shape a move plan around that.
For a deeper planning checklist specific to island moves, revisit planning a move to the islands of Redland City before you book. When you’re ready for numbers, request a fast written estimate via our local moving services page and mention that you’re moving to Karragarra Island — we’ll confirm ferry options, staging and your delivery window in the quote.
