Sydney, NSW

Port Botany holds the boxes, and the streets decide the truck

Behind Port Botany the parks hold ordinary sizes in depth, so choice rarely stalls a Sydney job. The streets do. Sandstone and the harbour left narrow frontages, split levels and yards hidden from the road. Photos of the actual Sydney unit go out before a truck is committed, and delivery is quoted to the address.

Parks behind the port

Sydney stock is drawn from port terminals and container parks behind Port Botany. Chullora, Yennora and Erskine Park are container parks behind the port. Delivery is quoted to the address once the frontage is known. Photos of the actual unit go out before a truck is committed.

Harbour city postcodes

The central city is 2000. Parramatta is 2150. Liverpool is 2170. Campbelltown is 2560. Penrith is 2750. The Central Coast sits on the same enquiry without one postcode that covers it. Smithfield, the northern beaches and the Hawkesbury flats are part of how the truck is chosen. A Parramatta industrial yard and an Avalon bench are not one delivery.

Where a truck stands

A straight run off the street can take a tilt-tray. Terraces, strata and any block without a side passage need a crane. Newtown, Annandale, Balmain, Paddington and Surry Hills often have no side access, and a stopped truck fills the carriageway. Clearways push the window to the middle of the day, and a crane on the public roadway usually needs council notice. Avalon, Newport, Bilgola and Killara are cut into sandstone, crest at the kerb, garage under the house. The rock bears weight. The turn and the canopy may force a shorter unit. Blacktown, Penrith and Camden sit on shale clay that swells through a wet winter and shrinks by February. Kurnell and Cronulla are sand that carries little. Marsden Park and Leppington add narrow streets and unsettled fill. Windsor, Pitt Town and Richmond are river country where water sets the plan.

Terraces, sites, acreage

Site stores through the Shire, Ryde and the Hills. Tool lock-ups at Smithfield, Wetherill Park and Ingleburn. Strata overflow. Film kit between jobs. Beach gear on the northern beaches. Feed and fencing at Kenthurst, Dural, Bringelly and the Hawkesbury flats.

Notes on clearways, sandstone benches and shale that moves.

What actually decides a terrace drop in the inner west?

Where the truck may stand. Newtown, Balmain and Paddington often have no side access, and a stopped combination fills the street. Clearways set the window. Council notice for a crane starts early.

Why might a northern beaches block need a shorter unit?

Avalon, Newport and Bilgola are benched into sandstone, crest at the kerb, garage underneath. The rock is fine. The turn and the canopy often are not. Killara is similar.

How does the shale clay around Penrith move through the year?

It swells in a wet winter and shrinks by February, unevenly across the block. Blacktown and Camden do the same. Corners need a solid seat or the doors stop meeting.

Is Cronulla sand the same problem as a Hawkesbury flat?

No. Kurnell and Cronulla drain and carry little. Windsor and Richmond are river silt, and water is the plan. Oran Park then adds a narrow estate street.
