You're in Control
Our hourly rate isn't just for a single trip!
For local moves within the Hinckley area , it includes the flexibility of multiple trips if needed, offering exceptional value. This adaptable approach means you don't have to worry or pay extra for those few forgotten items or last-minute additions – perfect for a truly stress-free moving day.
We also offer same-day and next-day services where possible to accommodate urgent needs.
We come equipped with:
* All-Inclusive Rates: To keep things simple, the hourly rate is fully inclusive of VAT and all our travel expenses. No separate call-out fees or fuel surcharges.
* No Hidden Fees: There are no extra charges. The only exception is for any road tolls or customer-approved parking charges, which will be added to the final bill if applicable.
* When the Clock Starts: Billing begins only when our team arrives at your collection address.
* When the Clock Stops: Billing ends as soon as the final item is placed in its desired position at your destination.
* Fair Billing Policy: After the minimum charge period, any further time is billed to the nearest 5 minutes, so you only pay for the time you need.
Choosing the Right Service
To help you select the best option for your needs, here’s a brief guide:
* One-Man Service: This is a cost-effective option where you or another able-bodied person will be available to help our driver with the lifting of any heavy or bulky items. It's ideal for single-item collections or small moves where you are happy to be the "second pair of hands."
* Liability Note for one man service: By selecting this service, you acknowledge that you or your designated helper are fit to assist and accept the responsibility for your part in the move. Slick Removals cannot be held liable for any injuries sustained by persons assisting our driver, nor for any damages that may occur to items or property during a shared lift.
* Two-Man Service: This is our complete, hassle-free service. Our two-person team will handle all the lifting, loading, and unloading for you. This service is recommended for full house/flat moves or for anyone who is unable to assist with heavy lifting.
One-Man Service:
* £67 per hour
* Minimum Charge: 2 hours (i.e., £134)
Two-Man Service:
* £87 per hour
* Minimum Charge: 2 hours (i.e., £174)
Our Company maintains Public Liability insurance, which is in place to address significant damages to premises or injury to persons.
We do not offer individual item insurance due to the complexities involved in creating a pre-move inventory and valuation.
Please be assured that our team is dedicated to handling all items with the utmost diligence and care to minimize any risk of damage.
We operate on a first-come, first-served basis, so please get in touch as soon as you have a confirmed moving date to secure your booking.
To ensure a smooth and efficient move, please have the following information ready when you book:
* Full collection and delivery addresses
* Your preferred start time for the move
* Details about parking and access at both locations (e.g., permit requirements, stairs, narrow doorways)
* Information about any exceptionally large, heavy, fragile or expensive items being moved.
Generally, we do not require a deposit for our services.
However, for end-of-month and beginning of month bookings, which are often in high demand, we may request a non-refundable deposit of £100 to secure your slot.
Regardless of whether a deposit is taken, we kindly ask that you inform us of any changes to your booking as soon as possible.
Once our team arrives at the agreed time, our hourly rates will commence.
This applies even if there are delays from the customer's end, such as not having acquired the keys to the new property.
In such situations, we will utilize the waiting time to efficiently load the van, organize remaining items, and position them for quicker loading in subsequent trips, ensuring we make the best use of the time while we await access.
Yes, you will receive a receipt for your moving service. This can be a valuable document if you plan to claim the cost of your relocation from your employer.
We specialize in providing efficient and reliable moving solutions tailored to your needs within Hinckley and the rest of Leicestershire. Our core moving services include:
We offer straightforward to medium-level furniture assembly and disassembly services, including items like beds and wardrobes.
Our team comes equipped with a variety of tools for this purpose, and our standard hourly rates apply during these tasks.
Please note that due to the potential for issues with the reassembly of older furniture, we cannot accept liability for problems that may arise.
While packing services aren't a standard part of our offering, we do provide them for small to medium-sized moves.
Our packing service includes all necessary materials (boxes, filling, tape) at a rate of £17 per box, in addition to our regular hourly moving charges which apply while we are packing.
These charges apply only to Standard square boxes.
For your move, we utilize a medium wheelbase Vauxhall Movano van, offering significant advantages.
Its low loading height and dual access (side sliding door and rear doors) ensure easy and efficient loading and unloading.
The van's manageable size allows us to navigate and park in tighter spaces and on driveways without causing significant road obstruction, saving valuable time searching for parking.
Equipped with custom lashing points and roof bars, your belongings are secured safely during transit.
Unlike larger vans with barn doors, our Movano's rear doors are easy to open and close quickly, providing added security for your items, especially in busier areas
Our use of the Wolfcraft TS 1500 folding sack truck offers you:

* Versatility for Various Items: The extra-large base plate and rounded support plate mean we can securely transport a wide range of items, including bulky or awkwardly shaped objects
* Protection for Your Property: Ergonomically shaped handles and smooth-rolling wheels allow for precise maneuvering, minimizing the risk of scuffs or damage to your floors.
* When not in use the sack truck folds up neatly out of the way so that we can utilise the space for your items.
For the specialized task of moving pianos and other extremely heavy or delicate items, our Evo Super Piano Dolly provides:
* Exceptional Weight Capacity: Capable of handling loads up to 900kg (nearly 2000 lbs), this dolly ensures that even the heaviest pianos or large furniture pieces can be moved securely.
* Maximum Flexibility and Protection: Its versatile wheels can be locked into uni-directional or swivel mode, allowing for precise navigation through tight spaces. The moulded rubber bumper strip helps prevent accidental damage to your items and property.

Good move! Updates prior to arrival, confirming all booking information.
Constant updates throughout moving process. Fantastic communication from start to finish. Items all carefully moved without damage.
Would recommend to others for any moving services. Reasonably priced too. Cheaper than others in the local area but the service was 5* -
Clear breakdown of price at the end and the length of time it took to complete the move. Thank you again for your patience and careful work.

Excellent moving out service provided by Slick Removals!
We have asked them to move heavy furniture and appliances to our new place. They have arrived on time, carried everything with care and placed all of our stuff neatly.
Their prices are fair and very transparent, they also accept credit cards and not many do that!
The guys were very polite, professional and quite chatty.
I will definitely be using their services again in the future.

Absolutely Outstanding Service – Highly Recommend!
I was let down by my original removal company on the day of our move, leaving us in a real panic with all our furniture ready to go. Desperately searching online—on a bank holiday, no less—I came across Slick Removals in Leicester. I honestly wasn’t expecting much given the short notice, but I called at 10am and, to my amazement, he was at my door within the hour.
Despite already having another job lined up, he came back afterward to finish our move without any complaints or delay.
He dismantled and reassembled a large fridge/freezer, carried heavy furniture upstairs to the correct rooms, and even moved a massive TV with care and professionalism.
What impressed me most was the level of service: all equipment was provided, including lifting belts, and not a single scratch was left on any of our belongings. And to top it all off—the total cost was less than what I’d paid the previous company, who charged extra for stairs and dismantling items!
I’m genuinely blown away by their professionalism, efficiency, and value. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Slick Removals to anyone—they truly saved the day!

The team was professional and on time, handling all our furniture with great care and ensuring nothing was damaged. Their service was exceptional from start to finish, going above and beyond to assist us throughout the move.
They are also reasonably priced and very transparent. I would highly recommend them.
Highly recommended.
Bang on time and professionally handled my whole house move. Dismantled my bed and assembled it at my new address. Carefully loaded the van protecting my items and also avoided damage to walls at both properties.
Placed each item exactly where specified. Cannot fault their service. Super competitive price too. I would use them again and have already recommended slick removals to family who are also moving in the next week.

I have used Slick Removals a few times recently and I would definitely recommend them.
The staff are always prompt on the day, and are polite and pleasant to work with.
They take great care with the items and always come up with some solution to seemingly tough situations.
Communication is easy and responsive and the overall experience is top notch, even at short notice. Definitely the only company I would ever use.
