How your move works
- Free survey. We visit or video-call to see what needs moving, check access at both ends and agree the scope. This is where accurate quotes come from.
- Clear quote. You get a written, no-obligation quote that sets out crew size, vehicle, packing and any storage, so there are no surprises later.
- Packing options. Choose full packing, partial packing where we do the fragile and awkward items and you do the rest, or self-packing. We can drop materials off before the day.
- Move day. The crew arrives on time, protects floors and furniture, loads in a planned order and unloads room by room at your new address.
- Storage and aftercare if needed. If completion slips or the new place is not ready, your belongings can go into storage and be delivered when you are set.
What a move costs
We do not publish fixed prices because no two moves are the same, and an honest quote only comes from seeing the job. The main things that move the price are:
- Volume: how much you are taking, which sets crew size and van size.
- Access: parking distance, lifts, long carries, narrow doorways and driveways at both ends.
- Stairs and floors: upper-floor flats and multi-storey homes take longer than ground-floor moves.
- Distance: a local Colchester move costs less than a cross-country relocation.
- Packing level: full packing costs more than partial or self-packing.
- Storage duration: how many weeks or months your goods are stored.
- Timing: month-end, Fridays and peak summer dates are in higher demand.
