Survey and fixed quote
A video or in-person survey of your Monton home, then one written fixed price covering crew, van, mileage and materials.
Salford · M30 · Salford City Council
A Monton 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 M30, quoted before the date is held.
Victorian and Edwardian villas along Monton Road, interwar semis on the side streets and canal-side apartment conversions. That stock — plus the stairwell, the loft and the parking — sets the van size and crew count on a Monton house move, which is exactly what the survey is for.

Removals in Monton
House removals in Monton start with a survey, not a guess. Two bedrooms and up means wardrobe cartons, mattress bags, floor runners and a crew who dismantle and rebuild the beds — priced as one fixed figure before moving day. Victorian and Edwardian villas along Monton Road, interwar semis on the side streets and canal-side apartment conversions.
A three-bed Monton move is a full working day: load, drive, unload, rebuild. We sequence it around completion so the van is loaded before keys drop, and we quote the The Monton lighthouse on the Bridgewater Canal end of the journey with the real walk-in distance included.
Only moving a part-load? Man with a van in Monton starts at £45 an hour. For the full moving line-up, see moving services in Monton.
What the fixed price covers
A video or in-person survey of your Monton 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 Monton load, £1m 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. Monton Green village shops, restaurants and bars, the canal towpath and the Roe Green loopline walkers — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Large van, three crew, a full day with lofts, garages and garden gear. Monton Green village shops, restaurants and bars, the canal towpath and the Roe Green loopline walkers — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Two vans, four crew, survey-led fixed price and a staged load plan. Booked most often on the M30 streets around The Monton lighthouse on the Bridgewater Canal.
Half the home to the new address, the rest to storage or clearance. In Monton that usually means a lift booking and a timed loading bay before the crew sets off.
Loaded early, held if keys slip, delivered the moment they land. Crews run from Salford, so Eccles and Worsley journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Pianos, safes, American fridges, gym kit and glass units, quoted at survey. Salford City Council loading rules on the M30 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Completion day, planned
Step 1
Survey by video or in person, written fixed quote, date held. Roughly 3,300 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
Step 2
Permit bays and lift bookings confirmed at both ends; materials dropped off. Monton Green village shops, restaurants and bars, the canal towpath and the Roe Green loopline walkers — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Step 3
Crew arrives, protection down, dismantling starts, van loaded in room order. In Monton that usually means a lift booking and a timed loading bay before the crew sets off.
Step 4
Drive, unload to the room you label, rebuild beds and wardrobes, walk-through. Salford City Council loading rules on the M30 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Access, parking and timing
Victorian and Edwardian villas along Monton Road, interwar semis on the side streets and canal-side apartment conversions. That stock, the street it sits on and the Salford City Council rules over it decide how long the day takes — so all three are settled at survey, not on the morning.
Start times here are set by the access, not the diary: where a lift, a bay or a school-run street is involved the crew starts early and finishes inside the day rather than paying for a second visit. Booked most often on the M30 streets around The Monton lighthouse on the Bridgewater Canal.
Tell us about the loft, the garage, the shed and anything that will not come apart. It is the unlisted items, not the address, that turn a comfortable day into an overtime one. Monton Green village shops, restaurants and bars, the canal towpath and the Roe Green loopline walkers — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Blocks in this part of Salford run one goods lift and a timed bay. We book both at survey, and if the lift is out the quote already carries the stair-carry hours rather than adding them on the day. Local context matters here: grew around the bridgewater canal and the old monton green; the lighthouse is a 1990s folly built on the towpath, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
The crew should be carrying, not circling. We confirm the restriction type on the M30 end, arrange a suspension through Salford City Council where it is worth it, and plan the closest legal standing point to the door. Monton Green village shops, restaurants and bars, the canal towpath and the Roe Green loopline walkers — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
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.

Answers before you book
A two-bed move in Monton 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. Booked most often on the M30 streets around The Monton lighthouse on the Bridgewater Canal.
Link to this answerYes. Every Monton 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. In Monton that usually means a lift booking and a timed loading bay before the crew sets off.
Link to this answerYes — beds, wardrobes, tables and standard flat-pack are dismantled at your Monton property and rebuilt at the destination as part of the fixed price. Fitted units and glass are noted at survey. Local context matters here: grew around the bridgewater canal and the old monton green; the lighthouse is a 1990s folly built on the towpath, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
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. Local context matters here: grew around the bridgewater canal and the old monton green; the lighthouse is a 1990s folly built on the towpath, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Link to this answerYes — Eccles, Worsley, Swinton, Pendlebury, Boothstown and every other Greater Manchester district, each with its own removals page and the same fixed-price bands. Salford City Council loading rules on the M30 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
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. In Monton that usually means a lift booking and a timed loading bay before the crew sets off.
Link to this answerLift bookings and loading-bay slots decide the day here: we confirm the concierge window before the crew leaves the depot, and carry protection for lift cars and communal carpet as standard. Send a short video of the stairwell and the street and we will confirm crew size before the date is held. Crews run from Salford, so Eccles and Worsley journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Link to this answerOften, yes — Salford City Council controls loading on most M30 streets. We check your street at survey and, where a suspension saves a long carry, we apply for it and show the cost in the quote before you accept it. Local context matters here: grew around the bridgewater canal and the old monton green; the lighthouse is a 1990s folly built on the towpath, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Link to this answerPianos, safes, American fridges, gym equipment and large glass units all move, but they are quoted at survey because they need extra crew or kit. Paint, fuel, gas bottles and perishables we cannot legally carry — Eccles customers usually clear those with the same booking. Booked most often on the M30 streets around The Monton lighthouse on the Bridgewater Canal.
Link to this answerMost M30 house removals finish inside a working day. Floor level, lift availability and carry distance change that more than the size of the property, which is why we time the job from the survey rather than the bedroom count. Crews run from Salford, so Eccles and Worsley journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Link to this answerBefore you book
Before you pay a deposit anywhere, check the quote answers these four questions. Ours does, in writing, before your Monton date is held.
Access, stair turns, parking and carry distance are all priced at survey. If nothing is added to the inventory, the M30 figure you accepted is the figure you pay.
Your load stays sealed and insured overnight for a fixed fee and delivers first thing — we do not unload onto a driveway or re-quote the second day at short-notice rates.
Goods-in-transit and public liability cover is in place on every Monton house removal, and claims go to a named account manager here rather than a form.
