1 mover or 2?
One mover suits single items you can help lift, small loads, and collections where the item is ground-floor and easy to reach.
Two movers is safer and usually quicker for full flat or house moves, heavy wardrobes and appliances, and anything going up or down stairs. If you're not sure, tell us what's moving and we'll recommend one.
Help the move go faster
- Pack boxes and seal them before we arrive
- Label boxes by room
- Check parking at both ends
- Measure tight doorways for large items

The estimate covers loading, driving and unloading. Mileage on top only applies beyond the first 10 miles each way. For long-distance moves we give a fixed price instead.
One mover is fine for single items and light loads. For full moves, heavy furniture or anything on stairs, two movers is safer and usually finishes faster, so it often costs much the same overall.
