Survey and fixed quote
A video or in-person survey of your Reddish home, then one written fixed price covering crew, van, mileage and materials.
Stockport · SK5 · Stockport Council
A Reddish 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 SK5, quoted before the date is held.
Houldsworth mill terraces in matching brick, interwar semis around Reddish Vale and postwar estates on the North Reddish side. That stock — plus the stairwell, the loft and the parking — sets the van size and crew count on a Reddish house move, which is exactly what the survey is for.

Fixed price, set at survey
Removals in Reddish
House removals in Reddish 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. Houldsworth mill terraces in matching brick, interwar semis around Reddish Vale and postwar estates on the North Reddish side.
A three-bed Reddish 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 Houldsworth Mill and Victoria Baths-era Reddish Baths end of the journey with the real walk-in distance included.
Only moving a part-load? Man with a van in Reddish starts at £45 an hour. For the full moving line-up, see moving services in Reddish.
What the fixed price covers
A video or in-person survey of your Reddish 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 Stockport 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 Reddish 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. Crews run from Stockport, so Heaton Chapel and Heaton Norris journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Large van, three crew, a full day with lofts, garages and garden gear. Most Reddish properties give us a driveway, so the hours go into lofts, garages and garden kit.
Two vans, four crew, survey-led fixed price and a staged load plan. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Reddish or across to Heaton Chapel.
Half the home to the new address, the rest to storage or clearance. Reddish Vale country park, Houldsworth Golf Club and a mixed working population — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Loaded early, held if keys slip, delivered the moment they land. Stockport Council loading rules on the SK5 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Pianos, safes, American fridges, gym kit and glass units, quoted at survey. Most Reddish properties give us a driveway, so the hours go into lofts, garages and garden kit.
Completion day, planned
Step 1
Survey by video or in person, written fixed quote, date held. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Reddish or across to Heaton Chapel.
Step 2
Permit bays and lift bookings confirmed at both ends; materials dropped off. Most Reddish properties give us a driveway, so the hours go into lofts, garages and garden kit.
Step 3
Crew arrives, protection down, dismantling starts, van loaded in room order. Stockport Council loading rules on the SK5 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Step 4
Drive, unload to the room you label, rebuild beds and wardrobes, walk-through. Crews run from Stockport, so Heaton Chapel and Heaton Norris journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Access, parking and timing
Houldsworth mill terraces in matching brick, interwar semis around Reddish Vale and postwar estates on the North Reddish side. That stock, the street it sits on and the Stockport Council rules over it decide how long the day takes — so all three are settled at survey, not on the morning.
Driveway loading makes these moves efficient. What moves the price is the loft, the garage and the shed, so the survey deliberately opens all three. Local context matters here: sir william houldsworth built the mill, church, school and club as a complete model village in the 1860s, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Stockport Council sets the loading, suspension and permit rules across SK5. Where a bay suspension is needed near Houldsworth Mill and Victoria Baths-era Reddish Baths we apply for it in advance and the cost sits in the written quote, not on an invoice afterwards. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Reddish or across to Heaton Chapel.
Former mill district on the Manchester border with two stations and a Grade II* baths. Loads out of here run best on an early start, before the Stockport school and commuter peak closes the approach roads. We plan the route with that in mind rather than quoting an optimistic drive time. Crews run from Stockport, so Heaton Chapel and Heaton Norris journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
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. Reddish Vale country park, Houldsworth Golf Club and a mixed working population — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
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 Stockport rather than starting from a blank form.
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. Reddish Vale country park, Houldsworth Golf Club and a mixed working population — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
No mileage surcharge
Short-hop moves to Heaton Chapel or Heaton Norris run as a single loaded trip with no out-of-area surcharge, because Greater Manchester mileage is inside the fixed price. Most Reddish properties give us a driveway, so the hours go into lofts, garages and garden kit.
From £395
Van, two crew, protection materials, dismantling and reassembly — the standard Reddish completion-day booking, fixed at survey from £395. Crews run from Stockport, so Heaton Chapel and Heaton Norris journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
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. Local context matters here: sir william houldsworth built the mill, church, school and club as a complete model village in the 1860s, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
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 Stockport bases with Houldsworth Mill and Victoria Baths-era Reddish Baths as the local reference point, so mileage inside Greater Manchester is already in the fixed price — no out-of-area surcharge.

Houldsworth Mill and Victoria Baths-era Reddish Baths anchors the round we run through Reddish, and every house move in Reddish on that round starts from the same local checklist. Sir William Houldsworth built the mill, church, school and club as a complete model village in the 1860s — useful context when you are quoting surfaces, not square metres.
Our teams plan for one recurring Reddish issue: tame valley damp at Reddish Vale plus mill-brick porosity make render and pointing green quickly. Reddish Vale country park, Houldsworth Golf Club and a mixed working population — we plan access and arrival times around all of it. Coverage runs across SK5 and the Stockport streets either side of it.

Answers before you book
A two-bed move in Reddish 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 SK5 streets around Houldsworth Mill.
Link to this answerYes. Every Reddish 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. Crews run from Stockport, so Heaton Chapel and Heaton Norris journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Link to this answerYes — Heaton Chapel, Heaton Norris, Gorton, Denton, Bredbury and every other Greater Manchester district, each with its own removals page and the same fixed-price bands. Stockport Council loading rules on the SK5 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. Reddish Vale country park, Houldsworth Golf Club and a mixed working population — 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 Reddish property and rebuilt at the destination as part of the fixed price. Fitted units and glass are noted at survey. Booked most often on the SK5 streets around Houldsworth Mill.
Link to this answerStockport 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: sir william houldsworth built the mill, church, school and club as a complete model village in the 1860s, 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 — Heaton Chapel customers usually clear those with the same booking. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Reddish or across to Heaton Chapel.
Link to this answerMost SK5 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. Reddish Vale country park, Houldsworth Golf Club and a mixed working population — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Link to this answerSemis here usually give you a driveway or a dropped kerb, which keeps the carry short — the time goes into loft contents, garage shelving and the garden kit people forget to mention until the day. Send a short video of the stairwell and the street and we will confirm crew size before the date is held. Booked most often on the SK5 streets around Houldsworth Mill.
Link to this answerOften, yes — Stockport Council controls loading on most SK5 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: sir william houldsworth built the mill, church, school and club as a complete model village in the 1860s, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.

Most complaints about removals in Stockport come down to three things: the price changed, the crew was short, or nobody answered the phone. These are our commitments on all three.
Goods-in-transit and public liability cover is in place on every Reddish house removal, and claims go to a named account manager here rather than a form.
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.
Access, stair turns, parking and carry distance are all priced at survey. If nothing is added to the inventory, the SK5 figure you accepted is the figure you pay.
