Why us
Why Clerkenwell families book us and recommend us
The video-survey price is the price
Your quote is built from what we saw on the survey, in writing. It does not change when the crew sees the stairs on the morning of your Clerkenwell move.
Crews trained for full-house volumes
Lofts, garages, sheds, garden furniture, pianos and the awkward wardrobe on the top landing are in the plan and in the price, not discovered at 4pm.
Insured, DBS-checked, completion-aware
Goods-in-transit and public liability cover on every move, crews vetted, and written delay terms for the day the chain runs late.
Multi-floor carries in Clerkenwell townhouses and conversions
Period stairs, half-landings and shared hallways need protection before anything moves. Crews here are used to piano and antique work, and will tell you honestly when a wardrobe has to come apart at the top of the house.

About the place
Moving house in Clerkenwell what it actually involves
Around The Charterhouse and Exmouth Market, Clerkenwell is design studios, italian delis and georgian squares on the city's north-west edge. The stock — print-works and brewery conversions, georgian townhouses and peabody blocks. — means lofts, garages and garden contents add real volume to a house removal here, so they are counted at the survey. Narrow one-way streets, seven-day controlled bays and warehouse lofts up several flights of stairs.

Questions
House removals in Clerkenwell answered
A 3 bed house removal in Clerkenwell, EC1, starts at £690 including VAT — a three-man crew and a 7.5-tonne lorry for six to nine hours. Volume, packing and access move the figure, which is why we quote after a free video survey rather than guessing.
Book provisionally four to six weeks out and confirm the moment contracts exchange. We hold a Clerkenwell date on a provisional booking without charge, then lock crew and lorry to your completion day as soon as your solicitor confirms.
We wait. If keys are late the crew stays loaded and charges waiting time at the rate stated in your quote; if release slips to the next day the lorry is secured overnight for an agreed fee. Delay terms are written down before you book, not improvised in EC1.
Yes. A full packing service covers every room the day before, or choose fragile-only packing for kitchens, glass and artwork. Wardrobe boxes, export wrap and materials are delivered to your Clerkenwell address in advance either way.
Dismantle and reassemble is standard on a full house move — beds, wardrobes, tables, cots and flat-pack units come apart, travel protected and go back together in the right rooms at the new address before the crew leaves.
Every Clerkenwell move carries goods-in-transit and public liability insurance, and the crews are DBS-checked. Higher-value items — pianos, art, antiques — are declared at the video survey so cover is confirmed in writing before moving day.
We do. City of London Corporation suspensions and dispensations are applied for by us with the council fee shown in your quote, so the lorry stands legally outside the door instead of adding a long carry to your bill.
Yes — every street in EC1 and the rest of City of London. Local homes are 5.8% houses and access means multi-floor carries and protected communal stairs, both of which we plan for before quoting.
