How it works

Three steps and a rate that holds

  1. Send the load and both postcodes

    A photo, a list or a marketplace link is enough. We size the van and decide whether your Temple and Aldwych job needs one mover or two before quoting an hour.

  2. Get the hourly rate in writing

    Rate, minimum hours, Westminster City Council bay reality and any charges confirmed by message. No deposit, no doorstep re-quote.

  3. We load, drive and carry it in

    Communal stairs and half-landings carried by hand. Blankets, straps and a trolley come as standard, and the clock stops when the last item is inside.

Why us

Why Temple and Aldwych books our vans and books them again

The hourly rate is the whole rate

£45 for one mover, £65 for two, VAT and fuel inside it. Nothing is added for blankets, straps, the trolley or the drive between your two Temple and Aldwych addresses.

Billed in half hours, not rounded up

After the two-hour minimum we charge in 30-minute blocks. A job that runs fifteen minutes over costs fifteen minutes, not a whole extra hour.

Drivers who lift, insured and DBS-checked

Every van carries goods-in-transit and public liability cover, and the driver is part of the crew rather than someone who watches you carry a sofa.

Stairs and conversions in Temple and Aldwych

Half-landings, tight returns and a sofa that has to come through a door built in 1890. We ask for the floor number and the stair type when you book, so the hourly estimate reflects the carry instead of surprising you at the end of it.

Hourly rates include VAT, fuel, blankets, straps, a trolley and the driver's lifting help. Charging starts when the crew arrives at your collection address and stops when the last item is inside — travel between the two addresses is inside the hourly rate, and Congestion Charge and ULEZ are quoted up front, never added afterwards. Two-hour minimum.

  • Parking outside your WC2 door is checked against Westminster City Council bay hours before the slot — a legal space is a shorter carry and a shorter bill.
  • The Congestion Charge and ULEZ are quoted with the hourly rate and never appear as an extra at the end.
  • Access here: Embankment red route, Inns gate control and no loading on the Strand at peak times.
