Take a look at our removals and storage cost guides to find out how much you should expect to spend on moving home or storing your belongings.
Moving house can be stressful, so you want to make sure that you’ve got a good removal company to help you move your possessions safely and securely. And if you need to keep your things in storage while you move homes, there are businesses and premises that can help you with that too. But how much will it all cost? Read our cost guides to find out how much you need to budget.
How cheap your removal service costs will depend on what you need. If you only need a ‘man and van’ service for a few pieces of furniture, you may pay as little as £15 per hour. However, the average cost for a removal service in the UK is £39 per hour, but you might pay up to £171 per hour if you choose a full service that includes supplying the boxes and packing up your belongings for you.
Make sure you choose your removal service wisely. While it can be tempting to go for the cheapest removal service you can find, they might not necessarily be the best – and you could risk your belongings. If the removal service specialists you choose don’t have the experience, they may not pack your possessions properly and they could get damaged in transit. Make sure you check each company’s reviews and references before you choose one to help you move home.
