Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around East Dulwich, movers near you here covers supply-free fitting from £58. With 43% of East Dulwich's 3,337 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE22 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
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.
Why choose us
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick — the reality on the streets around Dulwich Park in SE22, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SE22, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — and with 26% one-person households in East Dulwich, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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.
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. Narrow terraced streets, resident bays and side returns too tight for a Luton.
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. East Dulwich (Thameslink) is the nearest station, so a SE22 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
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. |
