Packing is where most moving damage starts. A box of plates packed flat, a heavy box of books under a light one, a lamp with its bulb still in. So we offer packing in three sizes and are honest about what each one costs.

Self-pack

You pack, we bring 20 double-wall boxes, tape and a roll of paper for free. Our only request: plates on their edge, books in small boxes, and nothing heavier than you would carry up the stairs yourself.

Fragile-only

On the morning of the move, two packers take the kitchen, glass, pictures, mirrors and lamps. It usually adds an hour and a half for a three-bed house and about £230, and it covers the things that break.

Full packing

The day before the move, the crew packs every room, labels each box and wraps the furniture. You leave the house as it is, keep out the things you need overnight, and wake up to a house in boxes. The kitchen is unpacked at the other end on the day.

“Moved us from a second-floor flat in the Bay with no lift. They were packed and gone by one o’clock and the piano went up our new steps without a scratch.”
