Good to know
Questions, considered
The things people most often ask before booking a move with us. If yours isn’t here, the contact page has our details — we’re glad to help.
Getting a quote
How do I get a quote?
Complete the quote form with a few details about your move and we’ll return a considered, written quote. You can also reach us via the contact page if you’d rather speak first.
Is the quote free, and am I committed to anything?
The quote is free and there’s no obligation. We’d rather you had a clear, considered figure to weigh up than felt hurried into booking.
How are your prices worked out?
From three things: the volume of what’s moving, the distance it’s travelling, and the access at both ends. Because every move differs on those, we assess each one individually rather than posting a standard figure.
Do you offer a survey before quoting?
Yes, and for larger or higher-value moves it’s worth it. A short video walk-round or an in-person visit means the quote reflects what’s really there.
Careful & higher-value moves
Do you handle antiques, artwork and pianos?
Yes, specifically. We plan the materials, cases and handling for higher-value and fragile items — antiques, artwork, mirrors, glass and pianos among them — and note them at the survey so nothing is left to chance.
Can you move period homes with delicate access?
We can. Uxbridge has a good deal of period housing with narrow stairs, tight turns and original features to protect. We bring the right crew and protection, and dismantle where it’s wiser than forcing.
Do you protect floors and features on the day?
Always. We use coverings and protection for floors, doorways, banisters and the contents themselves, at both the old home and the new one.
On the day
What about parking and access in the town centre?
Access around the High Street, The Chimes and the station takes planning. Tell us the addresses and we’ll assess the loading and, where needed, arrange a parking suspension with the council in advance.
Will you dismantle and reassemble furniture?
Yes — beds, wardrobes, tables and the like, taken apart at one end and reassembled at the other, so you’re not left to it on the first night.
Who will be looking after my move?
A named point of contact who knows your move from the survey onward, and a trained crew who handle it on the day. You’ll always know who you’re dealing with.
Packing & storage
Can you pack everything for me?
If you wish. We offer a full pack, a part pack, or fragile-only — your choice. We bring quality materials and a labelled inventory so unpacking is orderly.
Do you supply boxes and materials?
Yes — proper cartons, tape, paper, bubble wrap and specialist boxes for the difficult items. Whether you pack or we do, you won’t be improvising with supermarket boxes.
What if my dates don’t line up?
We can fold storage into the same booking — your belongings held in a clean, secure unit for the interval, then delivered when the new home is ready.
Around Uxbridge
Which areas do you cover?
Uxbridge itself (UB8) plus Cowley, Hillingdon (UB10), and out toward the West Drayton (UB7) and Denham (UB9) borders. We also move to and from the wider West London area.
Do you do student moves for Brunel University?
We do — student and academic moves in and around Uxbridge are straightforward for us, whether it’s a single room, a shared flat or a full household, at the start or end of term.
Do you handle office and commercial moves?
Yes — offices and commercial premises around Uxbridge, planned around your working hours to keep disruption to a minimum. See office & commercial.
Moving to Europe
Which countries do you move to?
Four: France, Italy, Spain and Portugal. Each has a dedicated guide under European removals with the route and customs detail.
Do you handle the customs paperwork?
We do. Since Brexit, moving household goods into the EU requires declarations on both sides and usually a transfer-of-residence claim. We prepare the transit and clearance paperwork and set out which documents to assemble.
Can I send just part of a household abroad?
Yes. Part loads travel consolidated with other moves on the same route, inventoried and protected to the same standard as a full load.
