What our house movers do

  • Wrap and protect

    Furniture is wrapped in blankets before it's carried, so it travels without knocks.

  • Load and drive

    The van and the number of movers are worked out from your list, so the job isn't rushed.

  • Unload room by room

    Tell the movers where things go and they place them in the right rooms.

  • Packing if you want it

    Pack yourself, buy a packing kit, or add packing help to your quote.

How many movers will I get?

The quote works out the van and the number of movers from your list and the access at both homes, so you don't have to guess or pay for more than the job needs.

How long does a house move take?

It depends on how much you have, the access and the drive. The quote plans the time your move needs, and the price stays fixed even if it takes longer on the day.

Do you move houses outside London?

Yes. We move houses across the UK. Enter both addresses for a fixed price, whether the move is local or long distance.

See long-distance removals.

Is the price fixed?

Your price is fixed before you book. It stays fixed while what you're moving, the addresses and the access match what you told us. There's no hourly meter, and the mover can't add anything on the day.

How soon can I book?

The earliest you can book is the next day. Pick a date in the quote and you see the fixed price for that date before you book.

Who is responsible if something is damaged?

Movesmith accepts liability for your goods while we move them, under the terms shown before you book. Every move includes Movesmith Cover up to £10,000 — with increased cover up to £50,000 available when you declare a higher value.
