What we do

Everything a move needs, and the jobs around it

House and flat removals

Full home moves of any size, from a studio to a family house. Furniture wrapped and blanketed, boxes labelled by room, beds down and back up again.

Ask about a long run
How it works

Four steps, no chasing

Most jobs are quoted from a few messages and a handful of photos. Larger homes get a quick video call or a visit so the price is right first time.

1

Tell us about the move

Where from, where to, when, and roughly what is going. Photos help. WhatsApp, the form below or a call all work.

2

A survey, then one price

A quick video call, or a visit for larger homes, then a fixed written quote covering the team, the van, materials and the time it takes.

3

Moving day

We arrive when we said we would, protect floors and doorways, wrap everything and load it so nothing moves in the van.

4

Settled in

Furniture placed where you want it, beds rebuilt, boxes in the right rooms, packing waste taken away if you like.

Small by design

The small things that make a move feel easy

We are a small team, so the person who quotes your job is on the van on the day. No call centre, no surprises, and nothing is too much trouble.

I

We turn up when we say

You get a confirmed arrival time, and a message when we are on our way. If London traffic has other ideas, you hear from us first.

II

Everything is wrapped

Sofas, mattresses, mirrors and anything with a surface that can mark. Blankets, stretch wrap and proper straps in the van, every time.

III

One price, agreed up front

The quote covers the whole job. The only things that change it are things you ask us to add on the day.

IV

Polite, tidy, careful

Floors protected, doors held, shoes wiped. We leave the old place clean and the new one ready to live in.

Big thank you to the team. Fast, reliable and efficient. Just what's needed when doing a big stressful move. Everything was handled with care from start to finish. Exceptionally priced as well.

Questions

Things people usually ask

How much does a move in London cost?

Every quote is fixed and based on what is moving, access at both ends, the distance and the date. Send a few photos or book a quick video call and we come back with a real price, not a range. The price in writing is the price you pay.

How far ahead should I book?

Two to four weeks is comfortable for a full house move. Fridays, month ends and the summer go first. Single items, clearances and pickups are often same day or next day, so just ask.

What is included in the price?

The team, the van, fuel, blankets, straps and stretch wrap, floor protection, dismantling and reassembly listed on the quote, and VAT. Parking suspensions, the Congestion Charge if we enter the zone in charging hours, and packing if you ask for it are the only extras, and we agree them with you first.

Do you pack, and can you supply boxes?

Yes. We can pack the whole home the day before, or just the kitchen and the fragile things. If you would rather pack yourself, we can deliver boxes, paper and tape ahead of the move.

Who sorts out parking?

Most London boroughs need 5 to 10 working days to suspend a bay, and charge roughly £100 to £250 for a day. We tell you exactly what is needed at both ends and can apply on your behalf at cost.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover, and the certificate is available on request. Tell us about anything of high value in advance so we can plan for it properly.

Do you go outside London?

Yes. Anywhere within about 150 miles of London is standard, so Brighton, Oxford, Cambridge, Bristol and Birmingham are all regular runs. We are also happy to quote for drops across Europe.

Do you work weekends and evenings?

Yes. We are open from 6am to 1am, seven days a week, so early starts, late finishes, weekend moves and emergency pickups are all normal for us.
