Overview
This page prices european removals for Hillingdon UB10 specifically: inter-war stock, 23% privately rented and 9,151 households in total. Work starts at £745, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Hillingdon permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
A walk-through call fixes the inventory and the van size, so the crossing is booked against a real volume.
Step 2
Crew hours, road miles, crossing, tolls and overnights on separate lines — no single opaque figure.
Step 3
Export-grade cartons and edge protection, because a European run is days of road vibration, not an hour across town.
Step 4
The same crew drives the load; you get progress updates and a delivery window as the run progresses.
Step 5
Furniture placed room by room at the destination, cartons unpacked if that was booked, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
Dedicated vans usually need seven to ten days' notice; part loads depend on the next van scheduled to that country, typically within a fortnight. Hillingdon (Metropolitan, Piccadilly) is the nearest station, so a UB10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect cavity brickwork outside, over timber stud partitions inside, and with 23% one-person households in Hillingdon, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in UB10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, as the Hillingdon stock goes, and with 23% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Goods in transit and public liability cover run for the whole journey, and the written inventory doubles as the customs list required at the border.
Two crew travel with the load for a dedicated van; part loads are consolidated at our depot and delivered by the driver running that route. Wide roads and driveways throughout; the A40 junctions congest at peak.

Scope
My daughter and her friend employed hello services to move the contents of their flat in Stevenage to their new flat in London. They arrived a little early to ensure they were ready to start at 9am The flat was at the top of the three story block of flats and the three of them… Read in full →
Booked them for one Bed Flat move from Hammersmith to Epsom. They packed all my stuff and loaded in less than 2 hours. I was also able to travel in the van to the destination. Thanks to Alan and his colleague. Forgot his name.
We had a good experience with this company for our move from London to Spain. Everything went well. They also helped us with our move out clean.

Working in Hillingdon
Hillingdon UB10 is inter-war and owner-occupier-led: 19% of homes here are flats and 81% are houses, across 9,151 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 23% of Hillingdon is privately rented and 16% socially rented, a lot of UB10 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Hillingdon substrates run to cavity brickwork outside, over timber stud partitions inside, and with 23% one-person households in Hillingdon, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, as the Hillingdon stock goes, and with 23% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a UB10 customer twice.
Hillingdon is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — suburban streets between Uxbridge and Ickenham, with the hospital nearby — which is why a UB10 quote is not a Hillingdon average.
On access, wide roads and driveways throughout; the A40 junctions congest at peak — one reason two crew travel with the load for a dedicated van; part loads are consolidated at our depot and delivered by the driver running that route. Fitters travelling in use Hillingdon (Metropolitan, Piccadilly).

Studio or one-bed to France or Belgium starts at £745 in Hillingdon, with Hillingdon Hospital and Hillingdon Court Park a few streets away — and 81% of Hillingdon homes being houses, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked.
