Crew, lorry, packing, London Borough of Southwark permits and ULEZ all inside one figure, back the same working day. No doorstep re-quote.

Why us
Why Canada Water 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 Canada Water 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.
Porter and lift coordination for Canada Water apartment moves
Whole-flat and lateral-apartment moves live or die on the booked slot. The goods lift and loading bay are reserved with the building manager in writing, and floor and lift protection comes with the crew.

Questions
House removals in Canada Water answered
A 3 bed house removal in Canada Water, SE16, 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 Canada Water 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 SE16.
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 Canada Water 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 Canada Water 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. London Borough of Southwark 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 SE16 and the rest of Southwark. Local homes are 9.9% houses and access means booked goods lift, loading bay and porter coordination, both of which we plan for before quoting.
