For operators · UK-wide
The job. Your share. No bidding.
Customers nationwide can submit move details and receive a fixed price. A booking proceeds only after suitable local or route-based capacity is confirmed. Once every eligibility step and final Admin approval is complete, matching jobs may be offered with your exact fixed payout shown before acceptance. Offers depend on real demand and route fit; current customer activity is strongest in London.

Built for the people doing the moving.
Jobs come to you
Customers nationwide can submit move details and receive a fixed price. Suitable offers are sent only when customer demand, route fit and eligible local or route-based operator capacity align. No lead fees or listing fees, and no guaranteed job volume.
Your share, before you accept
Every offer shows your exact figure — not the customer price, yours. Fixed price per job, no bidding against other operators, no race to the bottom. If the number doesn't work, decline with no penalty.
Paid without chasing
Once you accept a job, Movesmith reserves the customer's fixed price around 48 hours before the move — or immediately if the move is within 48 hours. The job only proceeds after the reservation succeeds. Normally customer payment is captured after completion and sign-off or documented review. An expressly agreed multi-day booking may be collected before work starts, but customer prepayment never establishes completion or releases your payout. Your agreed payout is submitted to Stripe only after completion and applicable release or hold checks. Funds typically reach your bank within 3 working days. After your first successful payment, Stripe's initial UK settlement can take up to 7 calendar days.
One complete payout
Every offer shows one fixed payout for the disclosed job. The mapped route, confirmed crew, vehicle, handling, access and planned return are already included. You decide whether the complete figure works before accepting.

Suitable offers, when demand matches
Once you are finally Admin-approved and job-eligible, suitable bookings may be offered with your complete fixed payout shown up front, subject to your approved scope and job dates.

Operator questions
I'm not in London — is it worth registering?
Yes. Operators can apply from anywhere in the UK, and customers nationwide can submit move details and receive a price. Portal access, document verification, activation and final Admin job-eligibility approval are separate stages. Approval does not switch your availability on. Suitable offers depend on your availability, actual demand, route fit and available local or route-based capacity; registering does not switch on demand or guarantee work.
What does it cost to register?
Nothing. There is no sign-up fee, no listing fee, no lead fee and no monthly subscription. The commercial arrangement and complete fixed payout are shown on each offer before acceptance.
Do I need insurance before I register?
Not to register — tell us the Goods in Transit level you hold, or that you don't hold it yet. You do need valid Goods in Transit and Public Liability cover before taking your first job, and we check the documents during verification.
If you're not covered yet, our insurance guidance walks through what you need.
How do jobs get priced?
Movesmith prices the job, not the hour, and shows the customer that fixed price before they book. You see the price of a job before you accept it — there is no bidding and no race to the bottom.
The applicable arrangement, whether an existing commission agreement or a versioned cost-plus offer, and the complete payout are shown before you accept a job.
Initial offers go to eligible operators based within 30 miles of the pickup. If the job remains unclaimed, the search widens in stages to 50 miles and then 100 miles. Movesmith checks the additional positioning travel before sending a wider offer and includes any approved travel top-up in the payout you see. Review the route and complete figure before accepting. Operators more than 100 miles from the pickup are not automatically allocated.
How much work will I actually get?
We won't pretend: customer activity is strongest in London today and builds area by area. Registration and verification do not guarantee any offer or volume. When a booking matches your eligibility, route and capacity, the offer shows your complete fixed payout before you accept. There is nothing to pay while you wait and no exclusivity.
I'm in Scotland — can I register?
Yes — register as normal. We're finalising the legal side of operating in Scotland, so your verification is held until that clears; your registration keeps your place in the queue and we'll contact you the moment it does. You can ask us to delete your details at any time via suppliers@movesmith.uk.
Register for your area.
Two minutes to register. We target document review within 1 business day; final Admin approval is separate, and suitable offers depend on real demand, route fit and capacity.
