Removals

Six things we do, each priced.

A house across the city, a flat across the Bay, a kitchen packed the day before, a piano down the stairs, an office over a weekend, a lorry to Edinburgh. Each has its own page with what it costs and how it works; the vans page says what each van holds and the estimate page turns bedrooms into a figure.

All six

01

Home removals

The whole house, across Cardiff or across the country: a video survey the week before, the right van for the load, a crew who have done it a thousand times, blankets on everything wooden, and the beds built at the other end. Priced by the hour and estimated by bedrooms on this website, so you know before you ring.

By the hour: £65 (medium van), £75 (long wheelbase), £85 (Luton), £110 (7.

02

Flat and student moves

A one-bed in the Bay, a student house in Cathays, a room in a shared flat: the medium van, two of us, three hours minimum, and a figure of £195 to £260 for most flats. We know every car park, service lift and awkward stairwell in Cardiff Bay and we bring the parking suspension if the street needs one.

£65 an hour for the medium van and two crew, three hours minimum (£195), including VAT.

03

Packing service

A team comes the day before and packs everything: kitchen in paper, pictures in corners and card, clothes on hanging rails, books in small boxes, every box labelled by room. Boxes, tape, paper and bubble included, and unpacked at the other end if you want that too. Or a box pack delivered to do it yourself.

One-bed £250, two-bed £380, three-bed £520, four-bed £650, including materials and VAT.

04

Pianos and specialist moves

Upright pianos, grand pianos, safes, American fridges, large glass, antiques, gym equipment and the things that need a window out: a crew trained for them, a piano trolley and skid board, sash cords, a stair-climber for the heavy stuff, and a figure quoted before the day rather than discovered on it.

Upright piano £180 added to a move, from £240 on its own within Cardiff, stairs priced per flight.

05

Office moves

Offices of five to a hundred desks across Cardiff and Newport: crates delivered and labelled the week before, desks dismantled and rebuilt, IT disconnected and reconnected by your people or ours, the move on a Friday night or a weekend, and everyone sitting at the right desk on Monday. A project lead, a floor plan and a crate count.

7.

06

Long distance and Europe

A move from Cardiff to London, Manchester, Edinburgh or Cornwall is a fixed price rather than an hourly one: the video survey, a lorry sized for the load, a crew who sleep over, and delivery the next morning. Part-loads to share a lorry on the regular London and Bristol runs cost less if your dates are flexible. Ireland and France, Spain and the Netherlands quoted.

Fixed price after the video survey.

How a quote works

Bedrooms for an estimate; a video survey for a quote; the quote is the invoice.

The estimate page gives you a range from the number of bedrooms, because that is what you know on day one. When you are ready, Dai or Sioned does a ten-minute video survey on your phone: you walk every room, the loft, the garage and the shed, and we send the right van and crew and a quote in writing that night. The quote is the figure on the invoice unless you add things on the day, which we price in front of you before we lift them.

Bedrooms in, a figure out. Then a video survey and a quote in writing.

The estimate page turns the number of bedrooms into a van, a crew and a price before you ring. The quote form takes two minutes; Dai or Sioned replies within the working day with a video survey slot the same week, and the quote after it is the figure on the invoice.
