The service, locally

Long distance moves from Swiss Cottage NW3

Long distance removals from Swiss Cottage start where every honest quote starts — how long the load takes in NW3, and how many road miles sit between here and the new address. 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. Stairs are the single biggest driver of crew hours on a long-distance job — a third-floor walk-up can add two billed hours before a wheel turns. It is the same formula in Camden 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

  1. Send both postcodes and the Swiss Cottage home size

    Where you are leaving in Swiss Cottage, where you are going, how many bedrooms and the floor you are on. That is the whole input — the formula does the rest.

  2. See the sum, not just a total

    We send the crew hours, the real road miles via M1, M4 and the M25, and the two multiplications that produce your fixed price. If you disagree with an input, we change the input, not the price.

  3. One crew loads, drives and unloads

    Communal stairs carried by hand before the lorry leaves London. The same team that empties your Swiss Cottage home carries it into the new one — no depot transfer, no shared load, no re-quote on the day.

Why us

Why Swiss Cottage 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 Swiss Cottage 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. Swiss Cottage 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.

Stairs and conversions in Swiss Cottage

Half-landings and 1890s doorways decide the load hours long before the motorway does. We ask for the floor and the stair type at survey, then price the hours honestly rather than discovering them on the day.

About the area

Moving out of Swiss Cottage NW3

Finchley Road's shops and library beside 1930s flats and post-war blocks. Swiss Cottage Library by Basil Spence anchors the neighbourhood, and the nearest station is Swiss Cottage (Jubilee). Housing here is purpose-built mansion flats, post-war blocks with lifts and victorian villas on the side streets. — 88.6% of homes in Swiss Cottage are flats and 45.9% are privately rented, which is why so many moves out of Swiss Cottage are one- and two-bed loads heading a long way rather than family houses moving round the corner. Finchley Road is a red route; loading is from side streets with permits and lift booking in the blocks. Central London loads pay their motorway toll in minutes rather than miles: getting out of the zone is the slow part, and we plan the departure slot around it.

Hello services came to clean out our apartment that we vacated on Monday 2nd February 2026. They did an amazing job and went above and beyond to make sure that the place was completely spotless and ready for the next resident. I’m really happy with their service and would very much recommend them. Their prices are also brilliant as well, very affordable, no hidden costs and more than fair and reasonable for the amazing service they provide. Very happy and thank you hello services, I’ll definitely be using them again. See before and after photos for reference.

The cleaners Constantin and arrived in time and never stopped until the work was completed to the best of their ability. I would recommend a more upgraded carpet cleaner as I was hoping for a hot steam cleaner to penetrate areas or heavy foot traffic on the carpet. They never gave up until the look was more space saving. I can now access the office area to study My degree coursework at home. All rubbish accumulated was also kindly removed.

Hello Services did a fantastic job in my bungalow. The windows sparkle inside, there are no fingerprints anywhere and my lounge carpet looks new. Even my garage, which was full of cobwebs, is clean enough to eat in. I would totally recommend them. Lovely people, excellent workers.
