Packing Services

Full or partial packing before your move, so everything travels safely and unpacking is not a fortnight-long guessing game.

About our packing service

Packing is the part of moving that people consistently underestimate. A kitchen alone can take a full day to pack properly, and it is usually the last thing to be done and the first thing to be rushed.

We offer full packing, where we pack the entire property, and part packing, where we take on the jobs that need the most care — kitchens, glassware, artwork, books and anything fragile — and you handle the straightforward rooms yourself.

Everything is packed by room and labelled clearly, which is what makes the other end manageable. We can also unpack at your new property, so you arrive to full cupboards rather than a wall of boxes.

What's included

What you get as standard when you book this service. Anything outside this list we will tell you about before you commit, not afterwards.
  • Boxes, tape, packing paper and protective materials supplied
  • Full packing of the whole property, or part packing of chosen rooms
  • Wrapping for glassware, crockery, mirrors and artwork
  • Wardrobe boxes so hanging clothes travel on the rail
  • Clear labelling by room and contents
  • An inventory of what has been packed where, on request
  • Optional unpacking and placement at your new address
  • Removal of empty boxes and packaging after unpacking

Who this service is for

  • People short on time

    Moves where work and family mean there simply are not enough evenings before the date to pack a house.

  • Anyone with a lot of fragile items

    Glassware, china, artwork and collections that need proper materials and technique rather than newspaper and hope.

  • Families with young children

    Households where packing around a toddler is not realistic and the move needs to happen anyway.

  • Older people and those moving with support

    Moves where lifting, reaching and long days of packing are not practical.

How it works

Four steps from first enquiry to the job being done.
  1. Tell us what you need packed

    Full house or specific rooms, and anything requiring particular care. This determines both the materials and the time needed.

  2. Get your quote

    We price the packing based on property size and how much you want us to take on, including materials.

  3. We pack before your move

    Packing usually happens the day before, or the same morning for smaller properties. You keep out what you need overnight.

  4. We move and optionally unpack

    Your belongings travel packed properly, and we can unpack and place them at the new address if you have booked that.

Packing Services FAQs

The questions we get asked most about this service.

Do you supply the boxes and packing materials?

Yes, materials are included in a packing booking. If you would rather pack yourself, we can supply materials separately so you are using proper boxes rather than whatever the supermarket had spare.

When would you come to pack?

Typically the day before the move, or on the morning itself for smaller properties. For a full house pack we may need a full day or more, and we will agree the schedule with you in advance.

Can I pack some rooms myself?

Absolutely, and it is a common way to keep costs down. Most people handle wardrobes, books and the loft, and ask us to do the kitchen and anything breakable.

How will I know what is in each box?

Every box is labelled with the room it came from and what is in it, so it goes to the right room at the other end and you can find the kettle on day one. We can provide a written inventory if you would like one.

Will you unpack at the other end?

Yes, if you book unpacking. We will unpack, place things where you want them and take the empty boxes away, which is often the part people most appreciate.

Is there anything you cannot pack?

Some items cannot travel safely in a removal van — aerosols, fuels, paint, gas cylinders and similar. We will give you a list when you book so you can deal with those separately.
