Packing Services
Your belongings wrapped, boxed, and labelled — with the care they deserve
Full and partial packing, fragile item specialists, and unpacking at your new home. All materials included, all packaging recycled. DBS-checked packers who treat your home with respect.
Why Use Professional Packers?
Packing is the most time-consuming part of any move — and the part most likely to result in breakages if done in a hurry with whatever boxes you can find. Professional packing is not just about speed; it is about doing the job properly so everything arrives intact.
The Problem with DIY Packing
- It takes far longer than you think — a three-bedroom house can take 40+ hours
- Supermarket boxes are the wrong size, too weak, and may carry pests or dirt
- Without proper wrapping, fragile items shift and break during transit
- Unlabelled boxes mean chaos at the other end — where is the kettle?
- The kitchen alone can take an entire day to pack properly
How Professional Packing Helps
- A team of two can pack a three-bedroom house in a single day
- Double-wall boxes in the right sizes protect your belongings properly
- Fragile items are individually wrapped with specialist materials
- Room-by-room labelling and a written inventory make unpacking straightforward
- The kitchen — the room everyone dreads — is packed systematically in a few hours
Packing Services for Every Need
From full house packs to fragile-only protection — four services covering every packing requirement.
Full Packing Service
Your entire home packed by professionals
We pack every room, every cupboard, every drawer. Your belongings are wrapped, boxed, and labelled room by room with an inventory you can follow. You do absolutely nothing except tell us where things go.

- All boxes, wrapping materials, and tape included
- Room-by-room labelling and written inventory
- Wardrobe contents packed in hanging cartons
Fragile-Only Packing
Specialist protection for valuable and delicate items
China, crystal, artwork, mirrors, antiques — the things that cannot be replaced. Our fragile item specialists use acid-free tissue, foam protectors, and double-layer wrapping. Each item is individually wrapped and packed in reinforced boxes.
- Crystal, glassware, and china individually wrapped
- Artwork, mirrors, and framed pieces protected
- Antiques and heirlooms handled with specialist care
- Photographed pre-pack for insurance records
Partial Packing Service
We pack the tricky bits — you do the rest
Already started packing and run out of steam? Need just the kitchen done? Or the fragile items, books, and awkward things you have been putting off? We pick up where you left off and finish the job properly.
- Pack specific rooms or categories only
- Kitchen packing — the room most people dread
- Books, ornaments, and decorative items
- Flexible — you choose what we pack
Unpacking & Setup
Walk into a home, not a warehouse of boxes
We unpack every box into the correct room, make beds, organise kitchens, arrange furniture, and remove all packing debris. You walk into a home that is ready to live in — not a maze of cardboard.
- Every box unpacked into the right room
- Kitchen organised — cupboards arranged sensibly
- Beds made, wardrobes hung, furniture positioned
- All packing materials removed and recycled
What We Pack With
Professional-grade materials — all included in your quote. The right box, the right wrap, the right protection for everything you own.
Double-Wall Cardboard Boxes
Stronger than standard single-wall — protects contents during transit and stacking.
Recycled Kraft Paper
Used for wrapping non-fragile items and filling voids in boxes to prevent movement.
Bubble Wrap
For fragile items — glassware, ceramics, electronics. Applied in multiple layers for added protection.
Furniture Blankets
Heavy-duty protective covers for wooden furniture, tabletops, and large items during transit.
Wardrobe Cartons
Hanging boxes that keep clothes on their hangers — no folding, no creasing, no re-ironing.
Floor Protection Rolls
Corrugated floor covering to protect carpets, hardwood, and tiles while the packing team works.
Acid-Free Tissue
For silver, jewellery, and delicate surfaces that could be marked by standard paper.
Foam Corner Protectors
Placed on picture frames, mirrors, and furniture corners to prevent impact damage.
Why Choose Vano Removals for Packing
Professional packing is an investment in a damage-free move and a stress-free experience. Here is what sets our service apart.
DBS-Checked Packers
Every packer has been through a DBS check and is trained in professional packing techniques. They are careful, methodical, and respectful of your home and belongings.
All Materials Included
Double-wall boxes, recycled kraft paper, bubble wrap, furniture blankets, tape, labels, and floor protection are all included in your quote. No surprise charges for materials.
Room-by-Room Inventory
Every box is labelled with its room and contents. You receive a written inventory so you can find anything quickly — no guessing which box contains the kettle.
Fully Insured
Items packed by our team are covered by Goods in Transit insurance throughout the move. We treat your belongings as if they were our own — but the insurance is there if needed.
Packaging Removed & Recycled
After unpacking, we take all cardboard, paper, and plastic for recycling. Your new home is left clean and tidy — no mountain of collapsed boxes to deal with.
Pre-Pack Documentation
For valuable and fragile items, we photograph the condition before packing. This provides a clear record for insurance purposes and gives you peace of mind.
How Professional Packing Works
Five clear steps — from survey to unpacking, with systematic care at every stage.
Pre-Pack Survey
We visit your home — in person or by video call — to assess what needs packing and provide a clear, fixed-price quote.
Having a rough idea of what you own speeds things up, but we are used to working it out. We will walk through each room, note any fragile or valuable items, and give you a price before we leave.
Materials Delivered
Boxes, paper, bubble wrap, tape, and labels delivered to your door a few days before packing begins.
Boxes arrive flat-packed to save space. You can start packing the straightforward items yourself if you want — or leave everything for us. The materials are yours to keep what you do not use.
Professional Pack
Our team arrives and packs room by room — systematic, careful, and fast. Floor protection goes down first.
We work in a logical sequence — least-used rooms first, kitchen and essentials last. Wardrobes are packed into hanging cartons. Fragile items are individually wrapped. Every box is labelled.
Inventory & Labelling
Every box is numbered, labelled with its room, and recorded on a written inventory you can follow.
The inventory tells you exactly which box contains what and which room it belongs in. This makes unpacking — whether you do it yourself or we do it — significantly faster and less frustrating.
Unpack & Clear Away
After the move, we unpack into the right rooms, arrange furniture, make beds, and remove all packing waste.
You tell us where things go. The kitchen is organised. Beds are made. Wardrobes are hung. Cardboard and wrapping are taken away for recycling. You walk into a home, not a storage facility.
What Our Packing Customers Say
Real feedback from people who let us do the hard work — and walked into a fully organised new home.
“Two packers arrived at 8am and had our entire three-bedroom house packed by 4pm. Every box labelled, every fragile item individually wrapped. They even packed the kettle last so we could have tea. Worth every penny.”
“I was dreading packing the kitchen — three sets of china, glassware, and a hundred random utensils. The packer did it all in two hours, wrapped everything perfectly, and not a single item broke during the move.”
“Booked the unpacking service and it was the best decision of the whole move. We walked into our new house and everything was in the right room, beds made, kitchen organised. The kids did not even notice we had moved.”
