Packing Services in Havant: what actually matters here
A borough town at the top of Langstone and Chichester harbours, combining an old market centre, one of the largest post-war housing estates in Europe at Leigh Park, and the separate island community of Hayling.
The housing stock is A small Georgian and Victorian core around East Street and North Street; the very large post-war Leigh Park estate, built as Portsmouth overspill, with its own district centre; interwar and post-war semis at Bedhampton, Denvilles and Warblington; waterside property at Langstone; and bungalows, chalets and holiday-origin housing across Hayling Island, which decides the tools, protection and crew size we bring to a packing services job.
Havant is straightforward except at two points. Leigh Park, Bedhampton, Denvilles and West Leigh are post-war estate housing with drives, verges, garage courts and turning space, so the van reaches the door. The old centre around East Street has narrow streets, short-stay bays and timed restrictions, and the Langstone waterside lanes are tight. Hayling Island is the real planning item: everything on and off the island crosses a single bridge, which is slow in summer and at school times, so island work is scheduled early and as one run. Havant Borough Council sets parking, collections and bulky waste; disposal is Hampshire County Council's permit-controlled sites, which take no trade waste.
Leigh Park, Bedhampton, Warblington and Langstone all sit inside the Havant round. Whichever of PO9 and PO11 your address falls in, the packing services quote is built the same way.
Havant is a mid-sized town; the streets around Langstone Mill and the harbour shore where the old wadeway crossed to Hayling Island are the ones where we most often check loading arrangements in advance.
What a packing services job includes
Packing is priced two ways so you only buy what you need: per packer per hour — £30 for one, £55 for two, with a two-hour minimum — or as a fixed price by property size, from £180 for a studio or one-bed, £280 for a two-bed and £420 for a three-bed. Materials are charged at cost, a two-bed materials pack starts at £68, and empty cartons are collected free after the move. Unpacking at the new address is charged the same hourly way, with boxes flattened and taken away.
Materials
- Double-wall cartons, tissue paper, bubble wrap and tape supplied and charged at cost
- Wardrobe cartons so hanging clothes travel on the rail
- Purpose-made cartons for pictures, mirrors, TVs and lamps
- Mattress bags and protective covers for soft furnishings
The pack
- Room-by-room packing with a numbered inventory as we go
- Every carton labelled with its room and its contents, not just a room name
- China, glass and stemware individually wrapped and packed on edge rather than stacked flat
- Electronics packed with their cables, and screens boxed upright
- A clearly marked essentials box kept back for the first night
Options
- Fragile-only pack for the kitchen and glassware, from £120, when you are doing the rest yourself
- Full pack the day before the move so loading starts on time
- Unpacking at the new address at £30 per hour, with cartons flattened and removed
- Free collection of empty cartons after you have finished unpacking
What changes the price on a packing services job
- We do not pack fuel, aerosols under pressure, paint or gas bottles, and open food and plants are best moved by you in the car.
- Packing takes longer than people expect. A studio is typically four to six hours for one packer and a family home a full day for two, which is why the fixed prices are set by property size rather than by an optimistic hour count.
- The kitchen is the room that decides the timings — glassware, china and small appliances are slow, careful work, and it is the room most often left to the last hour by self-packers.
- Boxes you packed yourself are still covered for transit, but we cannot verify the contents or how they were wrapped; where a fragile item matters, let us pack it and it is documented on the inventory.
- Materials are at cost, not a profit line, so over-ordering costs you money for no benefit — we would rather bring a realistic quantity and top up than sell you a pallet of cartons.

4.5 ★ from 3,131 Trustpilot reviewsOrdered two men and large van from Hello vans, price was competitive. The movers were very friendly. Highly recommended.
Was able to hire a van and driver at very short notice. Great value for money. Driver went above and beyond what he should've been expected to do based on my initial description of the job required. The driver also had excellent communication skills and kept me updated at every stage. Office staff very helpful… Read in full →

Havant questions, answered.
How quickly can you book packing services in Havant?
Same-week slots are standard in Havant, with next-day often available midweek. Month-end tenancy changeovers are the busiest window across Hampshire, so book those a week or two ahead.
Should I pay for packing or do it myself?
Do the wardrobes and the books yourself if you have the time; get the kitchen, the glassware and anything breakable packed properly. A fragile-only pack from £120 buys most of the protection for a fraction of the full-pack price.
How many boxes will I need?
We estimate from the survey and bring what the property size suggests — a two-bed materials pack starts at £68 — then top up if needed. Materials are charged at cost, so you pay for what you actually use.
Do you take the empty boxes away?
Yes. Empty cartons are collected free after the move, and if you book unpacking they are flattened and taken away on the same visit.
