Packing Services in Hedge End: what actually matters here
A large modern town east of Southampton that grew from a village into one of the biggest settlements in Eastleigh borough, with major retail parks, new estates and the older village core at Botley beside it.
The housing stock is A small older core around St John's and the village centre; very extensive 1980s to present estate development across Grange Park, Dowd's Farm, Shamblehurst and Wildern; interwar and post-war housing at West End and Moorgreen; and period and village property at Botley, Curdridge and Durley in SO32, which decides the tools, protection and crew size we bring to a packing services job.
Hedge End is about as easy as Hampshire gets. Almost all of it was built from the 1980s onwards on estate layouts with drives, garages, parking courts and turning heads, so a Luton reaches the door and quotes turn on volume and floors. Two caveats: parking courts and rear-access blocks on the newer estates can be tight for a long wheelbase, and the SO32 village lanes at Botley, Curdridge and Durley are narrow with flint walls and limited turning. Eastleigh Borough Council sets parking, collections and bulky waste; disposal is Hampshire County Council's permit-controlled recycling centres, which take no trade waste.
Hedge End is quoted as a whole: Grange Park, Dowd's Farm, Shamblehurst, Wildern and Moorgreen are on the same packing services rate as anywhere else inside SO30 and SO32.
As a smaller town built around The Hedge End retail parks beside the M27 junction, and the Georgian square at Botley just east, Hedge End has a mix of approach roads and loading points, so we confirm parking and carry distance when you book rather than assuming.
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.

Hedge End questions, answered.
How quickly can you book packing services in Hedge End?
Same-week slots are standard in Hedge End, 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.
