Removals Loughborough & House Moving Company LE11 LE12
Slick Removals is a professional removal company based in South Wigston LE18, covering Loughborough, LE11, LE12, and surrounding villages.
We provide a two-man team and van for house and flat moves across the area, charging £89 per hour with a 2-hour minimum.
Time is billed in 5-minute increments after that, so you only ever pay for the time actually worked — there are no hidden charges for stairs, multiple stops, or professional equipment.
We are Checkatrade approved and vetted with a 9.9/10 rating, and have over 500 reviews across Google, Trustpilot, and Checkatrade, with customers regularly mentioning careful handling, punctuality, and transparent pricing.
The lead mover is DBS-checked and we carry full goods-in-transit and public liability insurance. If you have heavy or awkward items such as a piano or American fridge freezer, let us know when booking so we can bring the right equipment.

Time starts when we arrive at your pickup address and stops when unloading is complete at your final delivery address.
We do not charge for travel to you before the job or for returning after. The only travel time charged is between your pickup, any additional stops, and your delivery address during the booking.
Waiting time caused by access issues such as delayed keys is charged at the same hourly rate as the team and van are reserved for your booking.

These are budgeting examples for straightforward moves using our two-man team at £89/hour.
A 2-hour minimum (£178) applies to all Loughborough bookings.
- 1-bed flat or studio: 2–3 hours → £178–£267
- 2-bed house: 3–4 hours → £267–£356
- 3-bed house: 4–6 hours → £356–£534
- 4-bed house: 6–8 hours → £534–£712
Actual time depends on how much there is to move, how well packed you are, and access at both properties.
Good preparation — boxes packed and furniture dismantled in advance — is the single biggest factor in keeping your move time and cost down.

The Delivery Challenge — Restricted Corridor & Meter Cupboard
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 Slick Value — Two Moves, One Booking
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.
