The service, locally
Long distance moves from Aldgate EC3
Long distance removals from Aldgate start where every honest quote starts — how long the load takes in EC3, 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. A booked goods lift keeps the hours predictable, provided the slot is confirmed — an unbooked lift is how a two-hour load becomes four. It is the same formula in City of London 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 Aldgate home size
Where you are leaving in Aldgate, 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 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.
One crew loads, drives and unloads
Booked goods lift and loading bay, trolleyed to the tail lift. The same team that empties your Aldgate home carries it into the new one — no depot transfer, no shared load, no re-quote on the day.
Why us
Why Aldgate 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 Aldgate 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. Aldgate 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.
Goods lift and bay slots in Aldgate blocks
Managed blocks want the lift booked and the bay reserved, usually with 48 hours' notice. Tell us the building at quote stage and we work to the slot, so the crew hours you are charged are the hours you were quoted.

About the area
Moving out of Aldgate EC3
Eastern edge of the Square Mile where office towers meet Whitechapel's high street. The Gherkin at 30 St Mary Axe anchors the neighbourhood, and the nearest station is Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan). Housing here is new residential towers, student blocks and 1970s estates around middlesex street. — 98% of homes in Aldgate are flats and 48.3% are privately rented, which is why so many moves out of Aldgate are one- and two-bed loads heading a long way rather than family houses moving round the corner. Aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking. 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.

4.5 ★ from 3,131 Trustpilot reviewsWe used them for our house move in Kingston. Abdullah and his colleague were very friendly and polite. They did an outstanding job
