Long distance and UK wide, explained simply
Long distance jobs need more planning than a local run. We work out the route, the timings and the rest breaks before we set off, so the driver arrives safely and on schedule. Your load stays on one van with one driver the whole way, with no transfers in between.
We do long distance house moves, student moves, deliveries to family, business stock runs and one-off collections from across the country. If you've bought something from the other end of the UK, we can go and fetch it.
You'll have the driver's number and updates on the way. If anything changes, like heavy traffic or a road closure, we'll tell you straight away.

Planning a long distance move
Long moves work best when both ends are ready. Make sure you'll have the keys to the new place on arrival, and check whether there's somewhere for a van to park close to the door. If the new property is a flat, ask the landlord or managing agent whether the lift needs booking.
On the day, we load in the morning and head straight off. The driver takes the breaks the law requires and keeps you posted on progress. If the trip is too long to finish safely in one day, we'll agree a plan with you in advance, including where your belongings stay overnight. They stay locked in the van, not unloaded at a depot.
Common questions
Anything else you'd like to know? Call or WhatsApp us and we'll give you a straight answer.
Do you cover Scotland and Wales?
Yes, we cover England, Scotland and Wales. Give us both addresses and we'll confirm the details.
Can you deliver on the same day for long distances?
Often, yes, depending on the distance and when we collect. Very long trips may need an early start or a next day arrival. We'll tell you honestly what's realistic.
Will my items be moved between vans?
No. Your load stays in the same van from collection to delivery.
Can you deliver to Northern Ireland or the islands?
These involve ferries and extra planning. Get in touch with the details and we'll let you know if we can help.
