Survey and fixed quote
A video or in-person survey of your Moss Side home, then one written fixed price covering crew, van, mileage and materials.
Manchester · M14 / M16 · Manchester City Council
A Moss Side 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 M14 and M16, quoted before the date is held.
1970s and 80s low-rise redevelopment plus surviving Victorian terraces on Great Western Street. That stock — plus the stairwell, the loft and the parking — sets the van size and crew count on a Moss Side house move, which is exactly what the survey is for.

Removals in Moss Side
Moss Side house removals cover the whole home across M14 and M16 — furniture, white goods, lofts, garages and sheds. 1970s and 80s low-rise redevelopment plus surviving Victorian terraces on Great Western Street. That housing stock decides the van size, the crew count and how long the carry takes.
Manchester City Council controls the loading bays and permits at both ends of a Moss Side move, so those are booked in the week before rather than argued about at 8am. If the chain slips, the van stays loaded and secure overnight for a fixed fee.
Only moving a part-load? Man with a van in Moss Side starts at £45 an hour. For the full moving line-up, see moving services in Moss Side.
What the fixed price covers
A video or in-person survey of your Moss Side 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 Manchester 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 Moss Side 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. Booked most often on the M14 streets around Alexandra Park.
Large van, three crew, a full day with lofts, garages and garden gear. Local context matters here: post-windrush settlement made moss side the centre of manchester's caribbean community; 1970s clearance rebuilt much of the housing, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Two vans, four crew, survey-led fixed price and a staged load plan. Crews run from Manchester, so Hulme and Whalley Range journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Half the home to the new address, the rest to storage or clearance. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Moss Side or across to Hulme.
Loaded early, held if keys slip, delivered the moment they land. Local context matters here: post-windrush settlement made moss side the centre of manchester's caribbean community; 1970s clearance rebuilt much of the housing, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Pianos, safes, American fridges, gym kit and glass units, quoted at survey. Local context matters here: post-windrush settlement made moss side the centre of manchester's caribbean community; 1970s clearance rebuilt much of the housing, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Completion day, planned
Step 1
Survey by video or in person, written fixed quote, date held. On Moss Side's terraced streets the carry from the van to the front door is what we time at survey.
Step 2
Permit bays and lift bookings confirmed at both ends; materials dropped off. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Moss Side or across to Hulme.
Step 3
Crew arrives, protection down, dismantling starts, van loaded in room order. Booked most often on the M14 streets around Alexandra Park.
Step 4
Drive, unload to the room you label, rebuild beds and wardrobes, walk-through. Booked most often on the M14 streets around Alexandra Park.
Access, parking and timing
1970s and 80s low-rise redevelopment plus surviving Victorian terraces on Great Western Street. That stock, the street it sits on and the Manchester City Council rules over it decide how long the day takes — so all three are settled at survey, not on the morning.
A five-minute video walk-through covering every room, the stairwell and the street is enough to fix the price. Anything you add later is quoted before we start, never after loading. On Moss Side's terraced streets the carry from the van to the front door is what we time at survey.
Culturally rich inner suburb beside the Manchester City academy and Alexandra Park. Loads out of here run best on an early start, before the Manchester school and commuter peak closes the approach roads. We plan the route with that in mind rather than quoting an optimistic drive time. Manchester City Council loading rules on the M14 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Manchester City Council sets the loading, suspension and permit rules across M14, M16. Where a bay suspension is needed near Alexandra Park and the Manchester Caribbean Carnival we apply for it in advance and the cost sits in the written quote, not on an invoice afterwards. Local context matters here: post-windrush settlement made moss side the centre of manchester's caribbean community; 1970s clearance rebuilt much of the housing, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Terraced streets give you a front door straight onto the pavement and no side access, so the van parks as close as the council allows and the crew works a short, repeated carry — which is why the survey counts doorways, not just rooms. Roughly 8,500 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
Booked here week to week
If one of these looks like yours, say so when you enquire — we will quote it from the closest job we have already done in Manchester rather than starting from a blank form.
From £595
Larger van, three crew and a full day that includes the loft, the garage and the garden equipment most quotes forget until the crew is on site. Booked most often on the M14 streets around Alexandra Park.
From £395
Van, two crew, protection materials, dismantling and reassembly — the standard Moss Side completion-day booking, fixed at survey from £395. Roughly 8,500 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
No mileage surcharge
Short-hop moves to Hulme or Whalley Range run as a single loaded trip with no out-of-area surcharge, because Greater Manchester mileage is inside the fixed price. Booked most often on the M14 streets around Alexandra Park.
Chain-proof
Loaded before keys drop and held sealed if the chain slips, with a fixed overnight fee instead of an unloaded driveway and a second day's labour. On Moss Side's terraced streets the carry from the van to the front door is what we time at survey.
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 Manchester bases with Alexandra Park and the Manchester Caribbean Carnival as the local reference point, so mileage inside Greater Manchester is already in the fixed price — no out-of-area surcharge.

Moss Side is not a generic Manchester postcode to us: culturally rich inner suburb beside the Manchester City academy and Alexandra Park, and that shapes how a house move in Moss Side actually runs here. The place looks the way it does for a reason: post-Windrush settlement made Moss Side the centre of Manchester's Caribbean community.
Locally, princess Parkway spray and park leaf-fall load front gardens and paths through autumn, so we bring the products and dwell times that problem needs. Scheduling fits around carnival every August, and parking is agreed before the van sets off. Coverage runs across M14, M16 and the Manchester streets either side of it.

Answers before you book
A two-bed move in Moss Side 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. Crews run from Manchester, so Hulme and Whalley Range journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Link to this answerYes. Every Moss Side 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. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Moss Side or across to Hulme.
Link to this answerMost M14 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. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Moss Side or across to Hulme.
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 — Hulme customers usually clear those with the same booking. Crews run from Manchester, so Hulme and Whalley Range journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Link to this answerOften, yes — Manchester City Council controls loading on most M14 and M16 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. Crews run from Manchester, so Hulme and Whalley Range journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Link to this answerWith terraces there is rarely a driveway and often a back alley that a Luton cannot enter. We plan the carry distance in advance and price it, so nothing is renegotiated with the van already loaded. Send a short video of the stairwell and the street and we will confirm crew size before the date is held. Roughly 8,500 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
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. Roughly 8,500 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
Link to this answerYes — Hulme, Whalley Range, Fallowfield, Chorlton-on-Medlock, Withington and every other Greater Manchester district, each with its own removals page and the same fixed-price bands. Local context matters here: post-windrush settlement made moss side the centre of manchester's caribbean community; 1970s clearance rebuilt much of the housing, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Link to this answerManchester 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. Carnival every August, Moss Side Powerhouse and the Maine Road estate — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Link to this answerYes — beds, wardrobes, tables and standard flat-pack are dismantled at your Moss Side property and rebuilt at the destination as part of the fixed price. Fitted units and glass are noted at survey. On Moss Side's terraced streets the carry from the van to the front door is what we time at survey.

The cheapest quote in Moss Side is usually the one with the least written down. Here is exactly what our price covers and what happens when the day does not go to plan.
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.
Access, stair turns, parking and carry distance are all priced at survey. If nothing is added to the inventory, the M14 figure you accepted is the figure you pay.
Call 020 3633 4555 and ask what a house move like yours costs from £395 fixed. If a cheaper option fits better — a smaller van, an hourly booking, a different day — we will say so.
