Call or message us on 07934 722569 with your moving date and your pickup/delivery postcodes (e.g., LE11 to LE12). We’ll give you an instant answer on availability.
A £50 deposit via bank transfer locks in your date. This is not an extra fee—it is fully deducted from your final balance on moving day.
Once booked, simply WhatsApp us the following details so we can plan the most efficient move:
If you're moving in the town centre or a busy student area, try to save a parking space for our van using your own car or bins the night before.
The closer we park, the faster we load, and the more money you save!
Most local house moves in Loughborough are completed within half a day using our 2-man team (£89/hr).
As a general guide: a 1-bed flat takes 2–3 hours, a 2-bed house takes 3–4 hours, and a 3-bed house takes 4–6 hours.
There are absolutely no hidden fees. Our £69/hr (1-man) and £89/hr (2-man) rates are exactly what you pay, with VAT already included.
We never charge extra for stairs, making multiple stops, or using our heavy-duty piano dolly, lifting straps, and furniture blankets.
Hourly pricing is usually much cheaper, but it entirely depends on how prepared you are. Because you only pay for the exact time used, the final cost is directly tied to your preparation and the property layout.
For example, moving a heavily furnished flat on the 2nd floor will naturally take significantly longer than a ground-floor property simply due to the physical legwork involved
Yes, we require a simple £50 bank transfer deposit to secure your moving date, which is fully deducted from your final balance on the day.
Final payment is only taken once the job is completely finished, and we accept cash, bank transfer, card, Google Pay, and Apple Pay with zero surcharges.
Yes, we regularly handle single-item moves and internal heavy lifting.
For extremely heavy or awkward items—like navigating an American fridge-freezer through a tight doorway or carrying a solid wardrobe upstairs—our 2-Man team (£89/hr) is required for safety.
For lighter single items or eBay collections where you are happy to help lift, our 1-Man & Van service (£69/hr) is a great fit.
You get our professional lifting equipment and insurance without the van even needing to leave your driveway. Please note, the minimum charge for all jobs in the Loughborough area is 2 hours.
Yes, we offer a fully licensed furniture disposal and house clearance service across Loughborough.
Decluttering before moving day is the best way to reduce your hourly removal bill because you aren't paying us to transport items you no longer want. Whether you need an old sofa taken to the tip or a full property clearance, we can handle it safely and legally.
Because we work on an hourly rate, we get paid from the time we arrive until the job is completely finished.
If there is a delay with estate agents releasing your keys or getting into the property, the clock does keep running.
However, we won't just sit around waiting. We will always do our best to use that time constructively—such as bringing items downstairs, staging furniture closer to the front door, or getting the van fully loaded and organized.
That way, the moment you get the green light, the rest of the move is as fast as possible.
Yes, we specifically use a Vauxhall Movano Medium-Wheelbase (MWB) van to easily navigate the narrow terraced streets off Derby Road, tight driveways, and student accommodations in Loughborough.
It fits into standard parking spaces, meaning we can park closer to your door, reducing carrying time and saving you money on the hourly rate.
Yes, every move is fully protected by Goods-in-Transit and Public Liability insurance.
Booking directly with a local owner-operator is much safer and more accountable than using a man and van comparison site.
You guarantee no hidden platform fees, a fixed hourly rate, and the security of a DBS-checked owner who holds a 9.9/10 vetted rating on Checkatrade and over 500 verified 5-Star Google reviews.
Yes, student relocations are one of our specialties. Our 1-man and van service (£69/hr) is highly popular for moving students into halls of residence or shared houses across LE11.
If you are happy to help the driver carry your boxes, it is a highly cost-effective way to move your belongings at the start or end of the term.
Yes, we can frequently accommodate short-notice and same-day moves, particularly from Monday to Thursday.
For the fastest response, call or WhatsApp 07934 722569 with your postcodes and a brief list of items, and we will give you a quick "yes or no" on availability.
Yes. While we are based locally, we regularly move customers from Loughborough, Quorn, and Shepshed to anywhere in the UK, including London, Manchester, and Birmingham. Long-distance jobs are priced with clear loading and unloading time allowances built-in. A small 1-man move from LE11 to London, for example, starts from £399.

Reviewer: Checkatrade Verified
Location: Loughborough, LE11
Date: July 2025
Service: 2-Man Removal Team
Location: Loughborough LE11
Property: Ground floor flat to upper floor flat
Minimum: 2-hour booking applies to all Loughborough jobs
Highlight: Restricted corridor, meter cupboard obstruction, and a second student move completed within the same booking window
The collection point was ground floor with straightforward access.
We loaded the van efficiently with furniture, boxes, and bags, which gave us the best opportunity to complete the delivery within the 2-hour minimum window and make the most of the remaining time for the customer.
The delivery point was considerably more complex. Parking was not available directly outside so we pulled onto the verge nearby, adding carry distance from the outset.
Access into the building was through a restricted corridor on the right-hand side of the property. Behind the front door sat a meter cupboard which prevented the door from opening fully — furniture could not be carried straight through in one movement.
Our solution was to bring each item into the landing area first, close the door behind us to create the necessary clearance, and then carry everything up the stairs to the flat.
This two-stage process was the only safe way to navigate the restricted entrance without risking damage to the door frame, the meter cupboard, or the items being moved.
The customer and his fellow students helped at the delivery point which kept things moving efficiently.
When we reached the one-hour mark with the main move complete, there was still time remaining on the 2-hour minimum.
Rather than leaving unused time the customer had already paid for, the customer requested us to collect a friend's belongings who was also moving into the same building.
We loaded and delivered their items within the remaining time. Two students moved safely and completely for the cost of a single booking.
