What makes a removal cost more or less?
Removals are priced on time and volume, so anything that adds loading time or van space raises the price.
- Floors and stairs. Every flight between the door and the van adds carrying time.
- Lifts. A working lift, booked for the morning, shortens the job. Tell us if it is small, shared or time-slotted.
- Parking and suspensions. The closer the van parks to the door, the quicker the job. In a controlled parking zone you may need a council bay suspension or dispensation, which carries a council fee on top of the move. Our parking suspension guide explains how to apply and how much notice councils ask for.
- Access. Narrow hallways, long paths and awkward stairs take extra time.
- Distance. The prices above are for local moves. A longer drive adds van and crew hours.
- Packing. Packing yourself saves the packing figures above.
- Volume. Less to move means a smaller vehicle and fewer hours. Decluttering before you move can drop a move into the next size band down.
- Dates. Weekends, month ends and summer book up first. A flexible date gives more choice of slot.
How do you get an accurate fixed quote?
An accurate quote comes from a free survey, based on what is actually in the home rather than the bedroom count.
- Tell us both addresses, the floors, whether there are lifts and where the van can park at each end.
- Show us every room, including the loft, garage, shed and any cupboards.
- Say what is not coming, and whether you want packing, dismantling, storage or a clearance at the same time.
- Give your date and whether it can move.
- Compare the fixed written price with other quotes on the same items.
