Survey and fixed quote
A video or in-person survey of your Rusholme home, then one written fixed price covering crew, van, mileage and materials.
Manchester · M14 · Manchester City Council
A Rusholme 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, quoted before the date is held.
Large Victorian villas subdivided into HMOs, red-brick terraces off Claremont Road and purpose-built student blocks. That stock — plus the stairwell, the loft and the parking — sets the van size and crew count on a Rusholme house move, which is exactly what the survey is for.

Removals in Rusholme
House removals in Rusholme 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. Large Victorian villas subdivided into HMOs, red-brick terraces off Claremont Road and purpose-built student blocks.
A three-bed Rusholme 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 Curry Mile on Wilmslow Road and Platt Fields Park end of the journey with the real walk-in distance included.
Only moving a part-load? Man with a van in Rusholme starts at £45 an hour. For the full moving line-up, see moving services in Rusholme.
What the fixed price covers
A video or in-person survey of your Rusholme 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 Rusholme 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. Manchester City Council loading rules on the M14 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Large van, three crew, a full day with lofts, garages and garden gear. Manchester City Council loading rules on the M14 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Two vans, four crew, survey-led fixed price and a staged load plan. Roughly 5,400 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
Half the home to the new address, the rest to storage or clearance. Crews run from Manchester, so Fallowfield and Moss Side journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Loaded early, held if keys slip, delivered the moment they land. With Rusholme drives and side access the van gets close, so volume rather than carry sets the day.
Pianos, safes, American fridges, gym kit and glass units, quoted at survey. Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Completion day, planned
Step 1
Survey by video or in person, written fixed quote, date held. Booked most often on the M14 streets around The Curry Mile on Wilmslow Road.
Step 2
Permit bays and lift bookings confirmed at both ends; materials dropped off. Manchester City Council loading rules on the M14 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
Step 3
Crew arrives, protection down, dismantling starts, van loaded in room order. Crews run from Manchester, so Fallowfield and Moss Side journeys carry no out-of-area charge.
Step 4
Drive, unload to the room you label, rebuild beds and wardrobes, walk-through. Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Access, parking and timing
Large Victorian villas subdivided into HMOs, red-brick terraces off Claremont Road and purpose-built student blocks. 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.
Home of the Curry Mile — a dense, student-heavy inner suburb between the universities and Fallowfield. 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. Crews run from Manchester, so Fallowfield and Moss Side 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. Manchester City Council loading rules on the M14 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
With a drive and side access the load runs quickly; the survey concentrates on garages, garden rooms and anything oversized that needs a second pair of hands or a leg-off. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Rusholme or across to Fallowfield.
Manchester City Council sets the loading, suspension and permit rules across M14. Where a bay suspension is needed near The Curry Mile on Wilmslow Road and Platt Fields Park 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 Rusholme or across to Fallowfield.
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 £395
Van, two crew, protection materials, dismantling and reassembly — the standard Rusholme completion-day booking, fixed at survey from £395. Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
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. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Rusholme or across to Fallowfield.
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. Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
No mileage surcharge
Short-hop moves to Fallowfield or Moss Side run as a single loaded trip with no out-of-area surcharge, because Greater Manchester mileage is inside the fixed price. Roughly 5,400 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
A few lines is enough to start: rooms, frequency and the Rusholme street you're on. Anything unusual — a shared stairwell, a key-safe, a dog — is better said up front than discovered on the day.
You get a written figure for your house removal, itemised, normally within a few hours. No survey fee, and no surcharge for travelling to Rusholme.
Choose a morning or afternoon window. We plan around Rusholme traffic and parking so the crew arrives inside it.
You get a finished-work check against the same list you agreed at the start — no vague "all done" message. Anything below standard is re-done at our cost.
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 Rusholme.
Everyone we send into a Rusholme property is ID-checked, DBS-screened and works under our own supervision — no unvetted subcontracting.
Every job in Rusholme is insured to £5m public liability, with goods-in-transit cover on anything we lift, load or take away.
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 Rusholme traffic, permit zones and parking realities, so crews arrive inside the window we promised.
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 |

Booking a house move in Rusholme means working around large Victorian villas subdivided into HMOs — the stock that defines M14. The place looks the way it does for a reason: victorian villas for merchants gave way to student housing after the universities expanded.
Locally, restaurant extract grease along Wilmslow Road settles on shopfront glass and upper render, so we bring the products and dwell times that problem needs. We work around platt Fields Park events when we set arrival windows in M14. Coverage runs across M14 and the Manchester streets either side of it.

Home of the Curry Mile — a dense, student-heavy inner suburb between the universities and Fallowfield. Victorian villas for merchants gave way to student housing after the universities expanded; Wilmslow Road's Asian restaurant strip dates from the 1970s.
Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September. The best-known landmark is The Curry Mile on Wilmslow Road and Platt Fields Park, and the M14 postcodes reach Fallowfield, Moss Side, Withington, Levenshulme within a short drive.
For a house move, what matters most locally is the building fabric: large Victorian villas subdivided into HMOs, red-brick terraces off Claremont Road and purpose-built student blocks. Restaurant extract grease along Wilmslow Road settles on shopfront glass and upper render; end-of-tenancy churn leaves ovens and carpets hard-used.
Answers before you book
A two-bed move in Rusholme 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. Roughly 5,400 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
Link to this answerYes. Every Rusholme 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. With Rusholme drives and side access the van gets close, so volume rather than carry sets the day.
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 — Fallowfield customers usually clear those with the same booking. Local context matters here: victorian villas for merchants gave way to student housing after the universities expanded; wilmslow road's asian restaurant strip dates from the 1970s, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
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. Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
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 Rusholme move when we quote. Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Link to this answerYes — Fallowfield, Moss Side, Withington, Levenshulme, Whalley Range and every other Greater Manchester district, each with its own removals page and the same fixed-price bands. Local context matters here: victorian villas for merchants gave way to student housing after the universities expanded; wilmslow road's asian restaurant strip dates from the 1970s, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
Link to this answerDetached properties usually park the van on the drive, so labour goes into volume rather than carry distance: outbuildings, garden machinery and large-format furniture set the crew size. Send a short video of the stairwell and the street and we will confirm crew size before the date is held. Platt Fields Park events, Platt Hall, a large South Asian community and a big student turnover every September — worth telling us about if it closes your street on the day.
Link to this answerOften, yes — Manchester City Council controls loading on most M14 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. Roughly 5,400 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
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. Manchester City Council loading rules on the M14 end are checked before the slot is confirmed.
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 Rusholme address first thing once keys are released. With Rusholme drives and side access the van gets close, so volume rather than carry sets the day.
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 5,400 households sit inside these postcodes, so weekend dates here go early.
Link to this answerYes — beds, wardrobes, tables and standard flat-pack are dismantled at your Rusholme property and rebuilt at the destination as part of the fixed price. Fitted units and glass are noted at survey. Crews run from Manchester, so Fallowfield and Moss Side journeys carry no out-of-area charge.

Before you book
The cheapest quote in Rusholme 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.
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.
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 Rusholme 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.
