The removals side is the published card: Studio flat in a terrace block, Driver Help: £70 × 2 hours = £140.

£5 per floor for each floor above ground where the team carries by stairs, at pickup, at delivery, or both. Floors served by a lift are not charged, and the ground floor is £0. The written quote itemises every floor charge before you book.

The minimum booking is 2 hours on every crew size, so the cheapest small move batches jobs into those 2 hours: the single item, the boxes and the bags in one run. Driver Help at the minimum is £140. A single heavy item on its own route is often better priced through our cheap single item removals page, and your quote will say which way round works out cheaper.

Driver Help at £70 per hour, £140 at the 2-hour minimum, where one mover with the van genuinely covers the job: a single room, a light flat load, the kind of job that starts around The towers: Lauderdale, Cromwell and Shakespeare. The mover loads and carries at this tier too; you can lend a hand if you wish, but you are never required to. Where the load needs two people carrying at once, 2 Men at £85 is the honest cheap option, because a struggling one-person job that runs long costs more in hours.

Yes, when the hours fall faster than the rate rises. On the card, 3 Men for 2 hours is £200, which is less than 2 Men for 3 hours at £255.

Yes: your own packing is the biggest single saving after crew size. If you want materials from us, the published extras are boxes £5 each, wrap £15 and tape £10 per roll. If the crew packs, it is charged at the same hourly crew rate, and the quote lists it as its own line.

We move your belongings to a storage unit rented in your own name, and collect them again when the new place is ready. We are a removals crew, not a storage operator: the unit contract is yours, and our part is the transport at the published hourly card, itemised in the written quote.

We are not a licensed waste carrier, so we cannot take items away for disposal. We move belongings to an address, to storage, or to a named charity that has agreed to take them. For disposal, the routes are your council bulky collection or a registered waste carrier you appoint: you can check a carrier on the Environment Agency register.

No deposit to book. Cancel or rearrange without charge up to 24 hours before your move; within 24 hours, a charge of up to 25% of the quoted price may apply. Quotes are valid for 7 days. Payment is taken at the time of service. Loading, unloading and carrying are included, as are dismantling and reassembly where booked in advance; packing is included only where booked and listed in your quote.

Insurance is as stated in your written quote: ask us to confirm in writing.
