Removals FAQ

Straight answers to the questions people ask us most, grouped so you can find what you need quickly.

Quotes and booking

How do I get a quote?

Fill in the 30-second form on our Get a Quote page, or send us a short video on WhatsApp. Tell us the size of your move, your addresses and your dates and we will come back with a price.

Do you need to visit my home first?

No. A short video walking through each room is usually enough for us to give you a fixed price. If you would rather talk it through, a quick call works too.

Is the quote really fixed?

Yes. Once we have your details, the price we send is a fixed price in writing. It does not change on the day as long as the job is what we discussed.

How far ahead should I book?

As soon as you have a date, really. Fridays and the end of the month are the busiest, so those slots go first.

Do you charge for a quote?

No. Quotes are free and there is no obligation to book.

Which areas do you cover?

We are based in Huddersfield and cover West Yorkshire, including Halifax, Brighouse, Dewsbury, Mirfield, Holmfirth, Wakefield, Bradford and Leeds. We also handle long-distance moves across the UK.

Moving day

What time will you arrive?

We will agree an arrival time with you in advance and confirm the day before. If anything changes, we will let you know straight away.

How long does a move take?

It depends on the size of the move and the distance. We will give you a realistic idea when we quote, rather than a guess on the day.

Do you protect floors and doorways?

Yes. We use floor protection and door guards as standard so your old and new homes are looked after.

Will you put furniture in the right rooms?

We will. Tell us where things should go and we will place them there rather than dumping everything in one spot.

What about access and parking?

Tell us about narrow streets, steep hills, steps or permit parking when you get a quote. We plan the loading spot so nothing is left blocking the road.

Packing

Do you offer packing?

Yes, full or part packing. Many people pack the easy rooms themselves and leave the kitchen, glassware and fragile items to us.

Are boxes and materials included?

They are included in a packing quote. If you prefer to pack yourself, we can supply boxes separately.

Can you unpack at the other end?

We can. Unpacking is priced separately and we will put things where you want them before we leave.

Long-distance moves

Do you move people out of West Yorkshire?

Yes. We run long-distance and nationwide moves from West Yorkshire to anywhere in the UK, and bring people back into the area too.

How is long-distance priced?

Mileage is built into a fixed written quote, so there are no surprise charges at the end. Send us a video and both addresses to get a price.

Can a long move be done in one day?

Some can, some need an overnight or a two-day plan. We will tell you which when we quote, based on the distance.

Payment

How much will my move cost?

It depends on how much you are moving, the distance, the access at both ends and any extras like packing. Send us a short video or fill in the quote form and we will give you an exact fixed price in writing.

When do I pay?

Payment terms are agreed and confirmed in writing when you book.

Cancellations

What happens if I need to cancel?

Just let us know as early as you can. Cancellation terms are confirmed in writing when you book.

Can I move my date?

We will do our best to fit you in on a new date. Availability depends on how busy we are, so tell us as soon as you know.

Valuables

What should I do with valuables?

We recommend keeping passports, jewellery, cash and anything sentimental with you on moving day rather than in the van.
