Booking your removal in Guildford is quick and easy. So we can prepare an accurate quote for your Guildford move, we'll ask you a few questions:
Guildford's cobbled High Street and the busy streets around the town centre can make parking tricky on moving day. If your property only has on-street parking, it's worth arranging a bay suspension so our van can get close to the door. Guildford Borough Council handles parking suspensions in the area, so book ahead. We're happy to advise on what your move in Guildford will need.
A little preparation goes a long way with any move in Guildford. We've put together a house mover's checklist for Guildford residents, covering the weeks before moving day, from notifying utilities and redirecting post to packing room by room. It's the same routine we recommend to everyone booking removals in Guildford, so nothing gets forgotten in the rush.

Guildford
Guildford is a county town in Surrey with plenty of scenery. Our team enjoys the local sights, including the Guildford Museum, Castle, Cathedral and Hatchlands Park, and our familiarity with the area helps us navigate moves smoothly.
Guildford
Our experienced team knows how to care for delicate and fragile items, taking the hassle out of your move. You pay for the time we spend, with a two-hour minimum on two-person jobs.
Our man and van service takes on office removals in Guildford as readily as house moves. Whether you're relocating a business around the town centre, moving near the University or the Research Park, or heading elsewhere in Surrey, we charge only for the time the job takes. That keeps costs sensible for small firms and larger premises alike, and we can work around your business hours to keep disruption to a minimum during your move in Guildford.
As a removals firm covering the whole of Guildford, we handle full and part moves as well as single items, and furniture removals in Guildford are a regular job for us. Need just a bed, sofa, wardrobe or other bulky piece shifted? We can help whether or not you're moving house, bringing the right kit to lift, protect and transport heavy items safely.
Rest easy knowing your belongings arrive in one piece. We provide high-quality, professional-grade double-lined packing boxes, which can be included in your quote.
With us, you choose both the storage location and how it gets there: deliver it yourself, or let our team collect it. We offer short-term and long-term storage through established networks across England.
No hidden fees, a simple hourly rate based on the crew you need. Weekends are charged at +10%.
Guildford
If your move is on the smaller side, our man and van service is a good fit. It suits students, flat sharers, people moving individual bulky items, and art and antique removals. It's a flexible, competitively priced way to move wardrobes, beds and settees.
From the streets around the castle to the newer developments on the edge of town, we're regularly asked to carry out house clearances across Guildford. We can handle the work even when you can't be there. Landlords often ask us to clear a property at the end of a tenancy, and we also take on clearances following a bereavement, working discreetly on the family's behalf. Our Guildford house clearance work meets the same careful standards as our removals.
With the University of Surrey on its doorstep, Guildford is a busy student town, and our man and van service is ideal for student removals in Guildford. If you're house sharing or moving between term-time addresses, we can shift your few larger items while you take care of the rest. Because we charge by the hour, it's an affordable way to move in Guildford without paying for a full removal you don't need.
Guildford's period homes often hold pieces worth protecting, and our art and antique removals in Guildford are backed by a strong track record with valuable and delicate items. Whether a painting or antique has just been bought, needs moving between properties, or forms part of a wider house move in Guildford, our crews give one-of-a-kind belongings the attention they call for.
Our Guildford crews dismantle and reassemble furniture as a matter of course on moving day, and we're happy to build flat pack furniture on its own too. Bought a wardrobe or bed frame you'd rather not tackle? We'll assemble it for you.

We charge a simple hourly rate rather than a fixed day rate, so you only pay for the time your move actually takes. One man and a van is £55 + VAT per hour, two men and a van £75 + VAT per hour, and three men and a van £95 + VAT per hour. As a guide, a typical two-bedroom move in Guildford takes around five to six hours including travel. For an accurate figure, ask us for a free no-obligation quote or a video assessment of your property.
Most two-bedroom properties take two to three hours to load and one to two hours to unload, plus the driving time between the two addresses. Access makes a real difference: stairs, lifts and how far the van has to park from your door all add time. Tell us about both properties when you book and we will give you a realistic estimate rather than an optimistic one.
As much as you can give us, booking as soon as your date is confirmed is the surest way to get the slot you want. That said, we keep our schedule as flexible as we can and we regularly take on moves at a few days' notice, so it is always worth asking even if your date is close.
If you have a driveway or off-street parking at both addresses, no. Otherwise we strongly recommend one: the closer the van can park, the faster the job goes and the less it costs you. Suspensions are arranged through the local council for Guildford and usually need several working days' notice, so apply as soon as your date is fixed, and remember to arrange one at the address you are moving to as well.
Yes. We carry £30,000 of goods-in-transit cover and £1m of public liability insurance as standard. If you are moving something worth more than the standard cover, tell us in advance and we will extend it for your job. Most household contents policies exclude damage in transit, which is exactly the gap this cover fills.
No. Most customers prefer to be there, but we can carry out the whole move in your absence as long as we have access to both properties, keys, entry codes and alarm details arranged in advance. Tell us where things should go and we will unload into the right rooms.
Yes. Packing is a standard service charged at the same hourly rate, and we can supply boxes, tape and protective materials ahead of the day. We can pack a whole property or just the awkward parts, kitchens, glassware and artwork are the usual candidates.
We dismantle and reassemble beds and flat-pack furniture as a matter of course, and we can build items for your new home too. Please disconnect washing machines and dishwashers, and defrost the fridge and freezer, the day before if you can. If you would rather not, ask us and a member of the team will do it on the day.
Yes. We run 3.5t Luton box vans rather than small transit vans, and the service scales, for a larger property we simply put more crew and more vehicles on the job. Three- and four-bedroom houses are routine work for us.
Yes. Storage is useful when your dates do not line up, when you are downsizing, or when you would rather move in stages. We can store what you do not need immediately and deliver it on to your new address when you are ready for it.
We take a 25% deposit for domestic moves and 50% for business moves to secure your date. The balance is due on completion, once everything has been unloaded at your new address. We accept credit and debit cards.
Yes. Weekend availability is more limited and is charged at a 10% surcharge, so a midweek move is usually better value, but if Saturday or Sunday is the only date that works, book early and we will do our best to fit you in.
Moving dates slip; we understand that. Change or cancel with 11 or more days' notice and there is no charge, if you cancel outright, your deposit is returned within 10 working days. With 10 days' notice or fewer, the deposit covers the booking we have held for you.
