Survey and fixed quote
A video or in-person survey of your MediaCityUK home, then one written fixed price covering crew, van, mileage and materials.
Salford · M50 · Salford City Council
A MediaCityUK removal company with a survey-led fixed price from £395: trained crew, large van, wardrobe cartons, mattress bags, floor protection and furniture dismantled and rebuilt. Whole-home moves across M50, quoted before the date is held.
Recent apartment towers with communal lobbies, plus serviced and short-let stock. That stock — plus the stairwell, the loft and the parking — sets the van size and crew count on a MediaCityUK house move, which is exactly what the survey is for.

Booking a removal company in MediaCityUK?

Only moving a part-load? Man with a van in MediaCityUK starts at £45 an hour. For the full moving line-up, see moving services in MediaCityUK.
What the fixed price covers
A video or in-person survey of your MediaCityUK home, then one written fixed price covering crew, van, mileage and materials.
Wardrobe cartons, mattress bags, sofa covers, blankets, floor runners and door jamb protection — delivered with the van, no hire charge.
Beds, wardrobes, dining tables and standard flat-pack come apart and go back together at the new address as part of the quote.
Loaded before keys drop, with Salford City Council permit bays booked at both ends so a late release does not cost you an extra day.
If completion slips, the load stays sealed in a secure depot overnight for a fixed fee and delivers first thing — no unloading onto a driveway.
Goods-in-transit cover on every MediaCityUK load, £5m public liability, and vetted crew who move homes full time rather than as casual labour.
Move sizes
One van, two crew, most of a working day including reassembly.
Large van, three crew, a full day with lofts, garages and garden gear.
Two vans, four crew, survey-led fixed price and a staged load plan.
Half the home to the new address, the rest to storage or clearance.
Loaded early, held if keys slip, delivered the moment they land.
Pianos, safes, American fridges, gym kit and glass units, quoted at survey.
Completion day, planned
Step 1
Survey by video or in person, written fixed quote, date held.
Step 2
Permit bays and lift bookings confirmed at both ends; materials dropped off.
Step 3
Crew arrives, protection down, dismantling starts, van loaded in room order.
Step 4
Drive, unload to the room you label, rebuild beds and wardrobes, walk-through.
Tell us the number of rooms, what matters most and how we get in. Access quirks in MediaCityUK are worth mentioning now: they change the time on site more than the floor area does.
The quote is fixed before anyone books time off work: labour, products and any extras listed separately, so you can cut the scope rather than the standard if the number is over budget.
Pick the day and window that suits you. Rounds are built geographically around MediaCityUK, which is why the arrival time holds rather than drifting across the day.
Work runs to the written spec, and the job isn't closed until it has been checked against it. If something on the list was missed, we return and put it right free.
An insured removal crew is only worth booking if the crew turns up, prices honestly and finishes the spec. These are the commitments we hold ourselves to in MediaCityUK.
If anything on the an insured removal crew spec is missed, we come back and put it right at no extra cost — that is the whole guarantee.
Cleaning, moving, handyman and clearance all run from the same MediaCityUK scheduling desk, so a multi-part job needs one booking.
Everyone we send into a MediaCityUK property is ID-checked, DBS-screened and works under our own supervision — no unvetted subcontracting.
Every job in MediaCityUK is insured to £5m public liability, with goods-in-transit cover on anything we lift, load or take away.
Fixed bands, quoted before we start. What moves the price is access, stair turns, parking distance and the size of the job — not the postcode you live in.
| Package | What it covers | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 2 bed house or flat | One van, two crew, most of a day. | from £395 |
| 3 bed house | Large van, three crew, full day with dismantling. | from £595 |
| 4+ bed house | Two vans, four crew, survey-led fixed price. | from £895 |
Includes protection materials, dismantling and reassembly, and goods-in-transit cover. Packing is quoted separately.
Same service, next door
Crews are routed from Salford bases with The BBC and ITV studios at MediaCityUK as the local reference point, so mileage inside Greater Manchester is already in the fixed price — no out-of-area surcharge.
Not listed? See every Greater Manchester area we cover.
The BBC and ITV studios at MediaCityUK anchors the round we run through MediaCityUK, and every house move in MediaCityUK on that round starts from the same local checklist. Built from 2007 on the former dock 9; the BBC's northern move in 2011 anchored the campus — useful context when you are quoting surfaces, not square metres.
Open water frontage means wind-driven rain streaks the glazing on every elevation facing the basin. We budget time for it rather than rushing the finish. Broadcast crews, Salford University's media campus and Piazza events — we plan access and arrival times around all of it. Coverage runs across M50 and the Salford streets either side of it.
House removals — MediaCityUK
1930s detached house, a street off The BBC and ITV studios at MediaCityUK
2-person crew, 5 hours on site. The recurring local issue applied here too: open water frontage means wind-driven rain streaks the glazing on every elevation facing the basin, so extra dwell time went on the worst surfaces before the final wipe-down.
House move completed. Agent accepted the property at check-out without a re-clean.

two-bed terrace, the M50 side of MediaCityUK
3-person crew, 6 hours on site. The recurring local issue applied here too: open water frontage means wind-driven rain streaks the glazing on every elevation facing the basin, so extra dwell time went on the worst surfaces before the final wipe-down.
House move completed. Finished inside the quoted window with no extra charge.

three-bed semi, MediaCityUK, on our Salford round
2-person crew, 3 hours on site. The recurring local issue applied here too: open water frontage means wind-driven rain streaks the glazing on every elevation facing the basin, so extra dwell time went on the worst surfaces before the final wipe-down.
House move completed. Signed off same day with photos sent to the customer.

Answers before you book
A two-bed move in MediaCityUK starts at £395, a three-bed at £595 and a four-bed or larger at £895. Those are fixed prices after a survey, and they include the van, the crew, mileage inside Greater Manchester, protection materials and dismantling.
Link to this answerYes. Every MediaCityUK removal is surveyed by video call or in person so the quote reflects the real inventory, the floor, the stairwell and the parking. The figure we give you is the figure you pay unless items are added on the day.
Link to this answerThe van stays loaded and secure. We hold overnight at the depot for a fixed fee rather than unloading into a driveway, and deliver to your MediaCityUK address first thing once keys are released.
Link to this answerSalford City Council sets the loading and permit rules on these streets. Tell us at survey whether there is a driveway, a permit bay or a loading window and we arrange the bay in advance, so the crew carries rather than circles.
Link to this answerYes — beds, wardrobes, tables and standard flat-pack are dismantled at your MediaCityUK property and rebuilt at the destination as part of the fixed price. Fitted units and glass are noted at survey.
Link to this answerTwo to three weeks is comfortable, and end-of-month Fridays go first. We do hold short-notice slots back each week for completion dates that move.
Link to this answerYes — Salford Quays, Ordsall, Salford, Eccles, Stretford and every other Greater Manchester district, each with its own removals page and the same fixed-price bands.
Link to this answerFor a part-load, a single item or a studio flat, yes — hourly man-and-van work from £45/hr is better value. From two bedrooms upwards a full removal crew is usually quicker and cheaper overall, and we will say which suits your MediaCityUK move when we quote.
