Request driver onlyOne mover and a van

Request one moverTwo movers and a van
From £95/hour
Discuss bulky items, stairs and carrying distance before choosing the crew.
Request two moversStarting rates do not establish a fixed total or promise every van size at that price. Confirm minimum hours, chargeable time, materials, applicable charges and the total payable in the quote. Not sure which help to choose? Describe the move and ask for advice.
W12 Shepherd’s Bush: explain the load and where it is released.
For a Shepherd's Bush or White City enquiry, give the full building address and the entrance used by a moving van. If collecting from managed premises, ask for the delivery or collection instructions and the contact who will allow access. A public entrance is not necessarily the vehicle release point.
For a room or studio move, list packed boxes and individual furniture rather than rely on a photograph of everything in the room. Identify what stays and say whether a bed, desk or shelving will be dismantled. Request any taking-apart work in advance if you need it.
For a shop or seller collection, confirm dimensions, known weight, packaging and the time the item will be ready. Tell us whether the seller provides handling assistance. A short journey still requires a suitable plan for loading, carrying and unloading at the destination.
W14 West Kensington: measure furniture against the whole route.
For a West Kensington flat or house, describe the entrance floor and any internal stairs. A raised-ground address, basement stair or long corridor should be stated explicitly. Give dimensions and known weights of bulky furniture and explain narrow turns at both properties.
If the building has a lift, check its door opening and usable interior and ask whether a moving slot is required. Explain an alternative route before booking if some items cannot use it. Neither one mover nor two movers guarantees that every item can be handled through every staircase.
Area names around West Kensington, Olympia and Holland Park can overlap postcode and borough boundaries. Send the complete postcode rather than infer loading rules from the neighbourhood name. For a Kensington W8 address, use the linked Kensington moving guide and send the complete postcode.
Check timed building access and the street independently.
Ask the property manager about any private loading area, gate, vehicle height limit or delivery slot. Check the street's responsible authority separately for public parking and loading. An empty bay or a visitor arrangement does not automatically provide the permission or space needed for furniture handling.
Coordinate the collection and delivery windows before confirming the job. If keys will only be released at a certain time, or the receiving building needs a lift booking, include that in the enquiry. The suitable vehicle, crew and complete quote are agreed around those arrangements and the full item list.
Make the enquiry specific to your move.
Send the inventory, full postcodes, date and access at both ends. Include dimensions and known weights for awkward furniture, and say if you cannot help with carrying. Ticking this checklist does not send an enquiry.
Removals run seven days a week, 8am–8pm. Card and bank transfer are accepted. Hire and reward insurance is held; goods in transit cover is available at extra cost, with applicable terms to confirm.

Your moving questions, answered.
Does this guide cover both W12 and W14?
It groups Shepherd's Bush W12 and West Kensington W14 enquiries for moving guidance. Give the full postcodes, items and access so the actual route, vehicle, assistance and availability can be confirmed.
Can you move furniture that will not fit the lift?
Describe the item and alternative access before booking, with dimensions, photographs and known weight where relevant. Suitability needs assessment; do not assume every item can use stairs or be dismantled.
Which guide should I use for a W8 address?
Use the linked Kensington W8 guide rather than treating a nearby neighbourhood name as the postcode. Send the complete address and destination so the actual move can be planned.
How much is the van and moving help?
Van and driver only starts from £60/hour with no loading or unloading help. One mover and a van starts from £80/hour, two movers and a van from £95/hour. The suitable vehicle, assistance, minimum booking and complete quote must be agreed for the actual load, route and access.
Can I add packing or furniture work?
Packing, materials, furniture disassembly and assembly can be requested and need to be assessed and agreed. Packing materials require advance notice. These tasks are not automatic additions to loading help.
Is a quote a confirmed booking?
No. The proposed service, availability and price must be agreed before the booking is confirmed. Removals run seven days a week, 8am to 8pm.
Let’s plan your move.
Send both postcodes, the date and items. We will confirm the suitable help and full quote before you book.
