Ask Vano / Moving Costs & Pricing

Why do prices vary between moving companies?

V✓ OFFICIAL ANSWERVano Removals · the team that does the moves
Prices vary because the scope varies: crew size, van size, how the hours are estimated, what is included, and whether packing, materials and parking are inside the figure or added later. Comparing written quotes line by line is the only reliable way to compare.

Two quotes for the same move can differ by a wide margin without either being wrong. One firm may estimate four hours and another six. One may include dismantling and reassembly while another charges it as an extra. Some quote a fixed price built on a survey, others an hourly rate with a minimum. Ask each firm what crew and van are included, how the time was estimated, what happens if the day runs long, and whether parking and materials are inside the figure.

Our own basis is published: £70, £85 or £100 an hour depending on the crew, a two-hour minimum, and £5 per floor where the carry is by stairs. Your written quote states the estimated hours and the basis they were worked out on.
