Packing Services in Lymington: what actually matters here
A Georgian harbour town on the western Solent with two large marinas, a cobbled quay, a strong second-home and retirement market, and the New Forest immediately behind it.
The housing stock is Georgian and Victorian town houses along the High Street, Captain's Row and the quay, a high proportion listed and in the conservation area; Victorian and Edwardian villas through Pennington; post-war and modern bungalows and retirement flats across the town; and detached and waterside property at Woodside, Keyhaven and Milford on Sea, which decides the tools, protection and crew size we bring to a packing services job.
Lymington is a conservation-area town and it shows in every access question. The High Street is on a hill, the lanes towards the quay are cobbled and narrow, the waterside streets have no off-street parking, and much of the older stock is listed. A large vehicle frequently cannot get close, so we plan the stopping point, the carry and the vehicle size in advance and put them in writing. Pennington and the modern estates are conventional. New Forest District Council sets parking, collections and bulky waste, and the forest lanes and open-forest roads around the town carry their own speed and grazing-animal constraints. Disposal goes through Hampshire County Council's permit-controlled sites, which take no trade waste.
Lymington jobs are routed across the full SO41 area, so Pennington, Woodside, Buckland, Milford on Sea and Keyhaven are quoted exactly as the centre of town is, with no outer-area surcharge.
Lymington is a smaller town, and addresses around The Georgian High Street running down the cobbles of Quay Hill to the Lymington River and the marinas in particular tend to need the access details confirmed before the van is loaded — we ask about that at quote stage, not on the day.
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.

The drivers were very friendly and helpful. But they arrived at our place without any of the boxes we had previously paid for and were not aware we had contracted them. The office was helpful to find a solution but the whole process was delayed in 2 hours and in the end we didnt get… Read in full →
A throughly professional and friendly job. Moving house can be stressful, and these guys made the experience significantly less so by efficiently cleaning the house.

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