Single item removals in London.

Yes — single item collections from any pickup address in London or the South East are exactly what this service is built for. Tell us where to pick up, where to drop off, and what the item is; we'll show you the fixed price before you book. See eBay & marketplace delivery for how seller collections work.

Yes — 2-seater, 3-seater, corner and sofa beds are all in the catalog. Most sofa moves start from £85–£120 depending on size, with 2 movers recommended for 3-seater and larger.

For wardrobes, dining tables, mattresses and other bulky pieces, see large item delivery in London.

Yes — standard washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers and fridge/freezers start from £90–£95. American fridge freezers start from £130 due to size and weight.

Yes. Appliances must be disconnected, emptied and ready to move before the moving operator arrives. Installation or plumbing isn't included unless agreed separately.

No — but you can choose. The default is 1 mover for lighter items; we recommend 2 movers for sofas, appliances, wardrobes, stairs without a lift, or anything you can't help carry. The 2-mover upgrade is shown as a clear extra in the quote.

Ground floor and 1st floor with a lift are included in the base price. Stairs without a lift add a small surcharge per flight, shown clearly on the quote before booking. 4+ flights with no lift routes to a custom quote so we can match the right crew.

If the van can park outside or within 10 metres of the door, parking is included. Longer carry distances (10–25m, 25–50m) add a small carry surcharge shown on the quote. 50m+ routes to a custom quote.

If your route triggers either, they're shown as separate pass-through line items on the quote — Movesmith takes 0% commission on regulatory charges. You see them before you book; nothing's added on the day.

Often yes, subject to moving operator availability in your area. Same-day bookings add a small premium shown on the quote. For tight timelines, calling 020 3143 1719 is the fastest path.

Every move includes Movesmith Cover — clear protection against loss or damage, handled by Movesmith and included at no extra cost. Every operator is also verified and must hold valid Goods in Transit and Public Liability cover before taking jobs. See Movesmith Cover for what's included.

You can — but the cheaper end of the hourly market typically involves hidden minimums, unclear insurance, no fixed-price commitment before the move, and parking/congestion/access surcharges added on the day. Movesmith is the clearer, safer fixed-price option: you see the full price before booking, the moving operator is verified and insured, and nothing's added on the day unless you change the booking.

If you only want the cheapest possible quote and trust isn't a priority, the hourly route may suit you better. Movesmith is for people who want a clear price they can plan around.
