Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Local crew, two movers, per hour | £58 | Min. 2 hrs | The base rate for a two-person crew already working your borough, which cuts the empty-mileage cost a crew from further out would otherwise pass on. |
| Local crew, three movers, per hour | £82 | Min. 2 hrs | A third mover is worth booking wherever a Victorian half-turn stair or a heavy item makes a two-person carry slow rather than dangerous. |
| Studio or one-bed, fixed local rate | £220 | 3–4 hrs | A same-borough crew already knows the building and the parking, so a studio move is quoted as a fixed job rather than an open-ended hourly clock. |
| Two-bed flat, fixed local rate | £360 | 4–6 hrs | Includes a booked lift slot or stairwell carry where the block needs one, arranged by the crew before arrival. |
| Arrival-window guarantee, narrow slot | £25 | One-off | Standard bookings arrive within a two-hour window; a one-hour window costs more because it commits a specific crew rather than the next available one. |
| Parking bay suspension arranged locally | At cost | 3–10 working days' notice | A local crew already knows which streets in the borough need one and books it through the same council process rather than discovering the need on the day. |

Domestic prices are the total you pay; landlord and letting-agent invoices are plus VAT at 20%. Crew size, the fixed-rate option and any arrival-window guarantee are shown as separate lines. Where a bay suspension, permit, ULEZ or the Congestion Charge applies it is itemised in the written quote before the crew is confirmed.
Working in Harrow
The stock in Harrow is interwar semis and detached houses with driveways, plus 1960s flats around harrow town centre, and the mix changes street by street — Burnt Oak (HA8), Edgware (HA8) and Harrow (HA1) each behave differently on the day.
On the ground, driveway parking is the norm; the hill roads are narrow and harrow town centre has controlled bays and a one-way system. Locally that means wide estate roads with parking; the a5 shopping stretch has short loading windows and driveways common; the a5 and station gyratory are busy with short bays. Harrow sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
London Borough of Harrow operates its own visitor permit and bay suspension process for Harrow, and the lead time on a suspension — commonly three to ten working days — is the single biggest reason a same-borough crew books a legal bay in advance rather than trusting the driver to find one on the day. Matching you with a crew who already works Harrow's streets means that lead time is rarely a surprise.
Why it looks like this: a hilltop village with a 900-year-old church, wrapped in interwar semis once the metropolitan line pushed through.
Scope
Method
Step 1
Studio through to a family house, plus whether either end has stairs, a lift or a permit-only street.
Step 2
The crew booked is one already working that borough, so parking rules, lift booking processes and common stairwell widths are already known rather than learned on the day.
Step 3
Small moves are usually quoted as a fixed job; larger or uncertain moves run on the hourly crew rate, both shown with any permit or ULEZ cost as its own line.
Step 4
A two-hour window is standard, sent the evening before; a narrower one-hour window can be booked for a fixed date.
Step 5
Furniture placed room by room at the new address and a final walk-through before the crew leaves.

Local crew, two movers, per hour starts at £58 in Harrow, and the ladder runs up to At cost for the largest job on the table above. Crew size and whether the job suits a fixed local rate or the open hourly rate. Same-borough matching keeps the driving time — and therefore the cost — down against a crew sent from outside the area. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: HA0, HA1, HA2, HA3, HA5, HA6, HA7 and HA8. On the ground that includes Burnt Oak, Edgware, Harrow, Kenton, North Harrow and Rayners Lane and Northwood.
Same-week local slots are the norm; a narrow one-hour arrival window or a weekend completion date is best booked a few days ahead so the right crew can be held. North London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Driveway parking is the norm; the hill roads are narrow and Harrow town centre has controlled bays and a one-way system. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Harrow and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Interwar semis and detached houses with driveways, plus 1960s flats around Harrow town centre is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Goods-in-transit and public liability cover apply to every booking. Crews are DBS-checked where a managed building requires it before the lift slot is confirmed. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Harrow tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
Two movers as standard, three where a Victorian stair turn, a heavy item or a tight completion-day schedule makes the extra pair of hands worth the hourly cost. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Harrow postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Full packing of boxes, which is booked as a separate packing visit, Storage between the old and new address, quoted separately by the week and Piano, safe or antique moves needing a specialist crew rather than a general local one. If something on that list turns up in Harrow, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.
