Two hours, and it starts when the crew arrives at your SE17 collection address on Southwark bookings. If the job takes two hours and ten minutes you pay for two and a half — we bill in 30-minute blocks after the minimum rather than rounding a whole hour in this 96% flats neighbourhood — and this being a short walk from Elephant & Castle (Northern, Bakerloo, Thameslink), with 3,233 households on this patch.

Yes. Lifting is the job, not an extra. One mover handles boxes, mattresses, flat-pack and most single items with a trolley; for a wardrobe, a sofa bed or anything going above the first floor in Elephant and Castle, book two movers — it is usually cheaper because the hours drop on the Elephant and Castle rounds — and this being a short walk from Elephant & Castle (Northern, Bakerloo, Thameslink), with 96% of homes here being flats.
