Survey and fixed quote
A video or in-person survey of your Oldham home, then one written fixed price covering crew, van, mileage and materials.
Oldham · OL1 / OL4 / OL8 / OL9 · Oldham Council
A Oldham 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 OL1 and OL4 and OL8 and OL9, quoted before the date is held.
Dense stone and brick terraces, mill conversions and hillside estates. That stock — plus the stairwell, the loft and the parking — sets the van size and crew count on a Oldham house move, which is exactly what the survey is for.

Removals in Oldham
Oldham house removals cover the whole home across OL1 and OL4 and OL8 and OL9 — furniture, white goods, lofts, garages and sheds. Dense stone and brick terraces, mill conversions and hillside estates. That housing stock decides the van size, the crew count and how long the carry takes.
Oldham Council controls the loading bays and permits at both ends of a Oldham 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 Oldham starts at £45 an hour. For the full moving line-up, see moving services in Oldham.
What the fixed price covers
A video or in-person survey of your Oldham 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 Oldham 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 Oldham 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 Oldham are worth mentioning now: they change the time on site more than the floor area does.
You get a written figure for your house removal, itemised, normally within a few hours. No survey fee, and no surcharge for travelling to Oldham.
Choose a morning or afternoon window. We plan around Oldham traffic and parking so the crew arrives inside it.
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 Oldham.
You get the an insured removal crew price in writing before we start. Access, stair turns and parking are priced in up front, not added afterwards.
Slots are planned around Oldham traffic, permit zones and parking realities, so crews arrive inside the window we promised.
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 Oldham scheduling desk, so a multi-part job needs one booking.
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.

|---|---|---|
| 2 bed house or flat | One van, two crew, most of a day. | from £395 |

Includes protection materials, dismantling and reassembly, and goods-in-transit cover. Packing is quoted separately.
Same service, next door
Crews are routed from Oldham bases with Oldham Coliseum heritage and Alexandra Park 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.
Oldham Coliseum heritage and Alexandra Park anchors the round we run through Oldham, and every house move in Oldham on that round starts from the same local checklist. By 1900 Oldham spun more cotton than France and Germany combined; the surviving mills define the skyline — useful context when you are quoting surfaces, not square metres.
Exposed 200m elevation and Pennine rainfall keep stone flags and yards damp and mossy most of the year. We budget time for it rather than rushing the finish. Scheduling fits around tommyfield Market, and parking is agreed before the van sets off. Coverage runs across OL1, OL4, OL8, OL9 and the Oldham streets either side of it.

new-build townhouse, a street off Oldham Coliseum heritage and Alexandra Park
2-person crew, 3 hours on site. The recurring local issue applied here too: exposed 200m elevation and Pennine rainfall keep stone flags and yards damp and mossy most of the year, 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.

first-floor flat, the OL1 side of Oldham
3-person crew, 4 hours on site. The recurring local issue applied here too: exposed 200m elevation and Pennine rainfall keep stone flags and yards damp and mossy most of the year, so extra dwell time went on the worst surfaces before the final wipe-down.

four-bed family home, Oldham, on our Oldham round
2-person crew, 6 hours on site. The recurring local issue applied here too: exposed 200m elevation and Pennine rainfall keep stone flags and yards damp and mossy most of the year, so extra dwell time went on the worst surfaces before the final wipe-down.

Hilltop mill town, once the world's spinning capital, now on the Metrolink with the Pennines on its doorstep. By 1900 Oldham spun more cotton than France and Germany combined; the surviving mills define the skyline.
Tommyfield Market, Gallery Oldham and one of the region's most diverse populations. The best-known landmark is Oldham Coliseum heritage and Alexandra Park, and the OL1/OL4/OL8/OL9 postcodes reach Chadderton, Royton, Failsworth, Shaw and Crompton within a short drive.
For a house move, what matters most locally is the building fabric: dense stone and brick terraces, mill conversions and hillside estates. Exposed 200m elevation and Pennine rainfall keep stone flags and yards damp and mossy most of the year.
Answers before you book
A two-bed move in Oldham 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 Oldham 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 Oldham address first thing once keys are released.
Link to this answerOldham 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 Oldham 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 — Chadderton, Royton, Failsworth, Shaw and Crompton, Lees 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 Oldham move when we quote.
Link to this answerThe van stays loaded and secure. We hold overnight at our depot for a fixed fee rather than unloading into a driveway, and deliver first thing once keys are released.
