How it works
Three steps and a price that holds
Free video survey
Walk us round your Bow home on your phone — every room, the loft, the garage and the shed counted, not estimated.
Fixed written quote
Crew, lorry, packing, London Borough of Tower Hamlets permits and ULEZ all inside one figure, back the same working day. No doorstep re-quote.
Moving day, handled
Multi-floor carries and protected communal stairs. Floors and doorframes protected, furniture dismantled and rebuilt, keys-to-keys around your completion time.
Why us
Why Bow 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 Bow 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 Bow 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 Bow what it actually involves
Bow sits in Tower Hamlets and is roman road market, bow quarter's match-factory lofts and canal-side streets. Local homes are victorian terraces, factory-conversion lofts and post-war estates. Bow flyover red routes, market-day restrictions and gated conversion estates. That combination decides crew size and lorry choice for every home removal we quote in E3.

Questions
House removals in Bow answered
A 3 bed house removal in Bow, E3, 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 Bow 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 E3.
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 Bow 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 Bow 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 Tower Hamlets 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 E3 and the rest of Tower Hamlets. Local homes are 15.4% houses and access means multi-floor carries and protected communal stairs, both of which we plan for before quoting.
