Cleaning, moving, handyman & clearance in Harwich & Dovercourt

A working North Sea ferry port at the mouth of the Stour and Orwell, joined to the Victorian resort suburb of Dovercourt. Fixed prices are confirmed before we arrive, and every crew working CO12 is insured to £1m.

Harwich Old Town is a grid of narrow, partly cobbled streets built long before Lutons, so removals here are shuttled from a larger vehicle parked outside it.

Harwich & Dovercourt in practice

Harwich and Dovercourt share CO12 at the far north-east corner of Essex, where the Stour and Orwell meet the North Sea. The Old Town is a dense historic grid of narrow, partly cobbled streets with listed frontages, tight doorways and no off-street parking; Dovercourt behind it is Victorian and Edwardian terraced resort housing, and Parkeston is post-war estate stock built for the port.

Access here is a vehicle-size question. Nothing bigger than a transit works comfortably in the Old Town, so larger removals are staged with a shuttle from a lorry parked clear of it, and we protect frames and staircases in the listed properties as standard. Ferry sailings load the port roads in bursts through the day. This is also the longest run in Essex, so we schedule Harwich work as a full-day slot rather than squeezing it behind another job. Clearance waste leaves under our upper-tier carrier licence with a transfer note, with no county tip booking needed at your end.

Access on the day
Old Town streets are narrow, cobbled in places and unsuitable for anything larger than a transit, so removals there are shuttled. Port traffic peaks around ferry sailings, and this is the most remote corner of the county for a same-day return run.

Jose cleaned my Dad’s flat prior to resale and did a fantastic job! All the grease and grime has disappeared from the surfaces, the cupboards are spotless and the floors are cleaner than I have ever seen! Also I can’t believe how clean and white the tiles are in the bathroom and kitchen! Thank you… Read in full →

The company kept in contact with me from the initial quote, reminders and any delays (unavoidable if travelling on the A12)! Adam was very friendly and the rest of the team were polite and professional. They did an amazing service on a horrible job.
