The service, locally
Long distance moves from Acton W3
Long distance removals from Acton start where every honest quote starts — how long the load takes in W3, 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 Ealing 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 Acton home size
Where you are leaving in Acton, 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 M4 and M40, 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 Acton home carries it into the new one — no depot transfer, no shared load, no re-quote on the day.
Why us
Why Acton 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 Acton 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. Acton 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 Acton 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.
Transparent mileage pricing
Long distance prices from Acton the sum, not just the total
The formula

About the area
Moving out of Acton W3
Seven stations, Victorian terraces and a fast-changing town centre. Acton Park and the former Acton laundries anchors the neighbourhood, and the nearest station is Acton Main Line (Elizabeth line). Housing here is victorian terraces in flats, post-war estates and new elizabeth-line-era blocks. — 70.6% of homes in Acton are flats and 38.8% are privately rented, which is why so many moves out of Acton are one- and two-bed loads heading a long way rather than family houses moving round the corner. Narrow terraced streets with permit bays, plus new towers requiring booked lifts. West London sits on the M4 and M40 corridors, so Bristol, Cardiff, Oxford and Birmingham runs are out of the capital inside forty minutes.

Really pleased with our house move. The guys came on time, loaded everything carefully like a huge jigsaw!

Very good experience. House was filthy after lots of building works and previous owners not really looking after it (the bathroom was disgusting).
