The service, locally
Long distance moves from Mottingham SE9
We move households out of Mottingham SE9 to Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Scotland every month, on the same transparent mileage pricing as every other London postcode. The sum is £65 per hour of crew time plus £1.50 per road mile, with an hour loading and an hour unloading included as the baseline. Driveway access is the cheapest long-distance load in London: nothing is carried further than the tail lift, so the baseline hours usually hold. It is the same formula in Bromley as it is everywhere else we work — the only thing that changes is your address and your mileage.

How it works
Three steps and a price that holds
Send both postcodes and the Mottingham home size
Where you are leaving in Mottingham, where you are going, how many bedrooms and the floor you are on. That is the whole input — the formula does the rest.
See the sum, not just a total
We send the crew hours, the real road miles via M25, M3 and M20, and the two multiplications that produce your fixed price. If you disagree with an input, we change the input, not the price.
One crew loads, drives and unloads
Lorry on the driveway, tail lift to the door, load and go. The same team that empties your Mottingham home carries it into the new one — no depot transfer, no shared load, no re-quote on the day.
Why us
Why Mottingham moves with us over the long haul
The formula is published, not negotiated
£65 an hour of crew time plus £1.50 a road mile, printed on the page before you speak to anyone. Two people moving the same load out of Mottingham on the same day pay the same price.
Mileage is measured, not estimated
We price the road distance the lorry actually drives, not a straight line on a map. Mottingham to Manchester is 200 road miles and is charged as 200 — a 2-bed at £560, fixed.
One crew, one vehicle, door to door
Your load is never consolidated with another household's or dropped at a depot overnight. That is why our long-distance dates hold and our damage rate stays where it is.
Driveway loading in Mottingham
Off-street parking is the best start a long-distance move can have. The tail lift goes down at your door, the crew works in a straight line, and the baseline load hours in the formula genuinely hold.

About the area
Moving out of Mottingham SE9
A quiet interwar suburb between Eltham and Chislehurst. Mottingham Village and Fairmount recreation ground anchors the neighbourhood, and the nearest station is Mottingham (Southeastern). Housing here is 1930s semis with drives, post-war estate housing and small flat blocks. — 25.2% of homes in Mottingham are flats and 17.3% are privately rented, which is why so many moves out of Mottingham are one- and two-bed loads heading a long way rather than family houses moving round the corner. Wide roads and driveways throughout, with easy turning for a Luton. South London runs cross the M25 first, so the mileage half of the sum is genuinely longer to the north — we quote the real road distance, not a straight line.
