What's included in every move
Your furniture arrives as it left
Every item is wrapped and protected for the journey. The sofa you saved up for gets the same care as the vase your gran gave you.
You don't lift a thing
Not a box, not a bed frame. You stay laid back. We do the rest.
Everything lands in the right room
Boxes and furniture go where you want them, so the bedroom is ready when you are.
You always know where we are
You get an arrival window first, then an exact ETA on the day. No waiting by the window wondering.
A team you'll be glad you booked
Calm, polite and careful. The kind of people you’d happily leave in your home.
Everything we need, we bring
The van, fuel, movers, straps, trolleys, blankets and tools. You won’t need to buy, borrow or fetch a thing.
You're covered
Every mover is insured, with £2m public liability and £20k goods in transit.

- Furniture disassembly and reassembly
- Parking and suspensions

The worst part of a cheap quote is the extra bill on the day. Everything we add is on your quote before you book.
Additional time. Every move is different. A busy street in Soho at 5pm isn’t a quiet road in Finchley. Parking, access and traffic all change how long a move takes. Your quote shows the rate for any additional time, so you know before you book.
Price questions
Why are your prices "from" if every quote is tailored?
Our “from” prices show where each service starts, so you know the range before you ask. Your quote is then built around what your move involves: the floors, parking, access, how much you’re moving and how many movers it needs. That’s why two moves of the same size can cost different amounts, and why you get your exact price before you book.
How much does a 1 bedroom flat move cost in London?
Most 1 bedroom flat moves suit our Half Day, from £399 for up to 4 hours. Your tailored quote confirms the price for your move.
Is parking included?
No. Parking and any council parking suspension are added to your quote if needed. We’ll tell you what your street needs. See the areas we cover for council rules.
What's not included in the price?
Furniture disassembly and reassembly, parking, the Congestion Charge, Silvertown and Blackwall Tunnel charges, the Dart Charge, additional time and packing. Anything your move needs is on your quote before you book.
