How it works
Three steps and one written figure
Tell us the home
Bedrooms, what you want packed and photos or a quick video walk-round. That is enough to size a London pack without anyone visiting.
Fixed quote and box plan
Packer count, hours and every box, roll and cover in one figure, with the relevant council parking for the materials drop already sorted.
Packed and labelled
Room by room, fragiles wrapped individually, inventory handed over, plus unpacking and box collection in All London postcodes where booked.
Why us
Why London books our packers and books them again
Insurance-valid packing
Professionally packed boxes are claimable under goods-in-transit cover. Owner-packed boxes usually are not, because no insurer can verify what went in or how it was wrapped. That is the honest reason to book.
All materials included and delivered ahead
Double-wall boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, tape, mattress and sofa covers and wardrobe boxes on loan — inside the price, dropped days before, never itemised afterwards.
Labelling that survives the unload
Source room, destination room, contents and a fragile flag on four sides, plus a numbered inventory, so the right boxes end up in the right rooms and nothing is opened at random.
One rate card across all 33 boroughs
£180 for a 1-bed full pack, £420 for a 3-bed, £140 for fragiles only — VAT, boxes, paper, bubble wrap, tape, covers and wardrobe boxes all inside it.

All prices include VAT and all materials — double-wall boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, tape, mattress and sofa covers, and wardrobe boxes on loan. Quotes follow bedrooms and contents, are confirmed in writing from your photos or a video walk-round, and are never revised on the day. Homes heavy with books, china or artwork are priced honestly up front rather than surprised at the end.
- Materials delivered two to five days ahead with parking and lift access handled.
- Congestion Charge and ULEZ sit inside the quoted figure and never on the invoice.
- Book-, china- and art-heavy homes are priced honestly up front, never revised on the day.

Box plan
How many boxes a London home needs about 51–84 boxes
Sized on the London average of 2.5 bedrooms per household with 54% of homes flats (ONS Census 2021, all 33 boroughs). Your own plan is sized from bedrooms, shelf metres and how much glass and china is on show — and every box in it is included in the price.
- Kitchen10–16
Cell-divided cartons for glass, plates packed on edge, pans in mediums.
- Living room and books13–21
Books in small boxes only — nothing over 20kg on a London staircase.
- Bedrooms and wardrobes11–19
Hanging clothes straight into wardrobe boxes on loan, drawers into larges.
- Bathroom, hallway and study5–9
Liquids bagged and boxed separately, cables and tech in one labelled carton.
- Fragiles — china, glass, art, mirrors5–8
Wrapped individually in paper, then bubble, then boxed with corner protection.
- Loft, garage and shed7–11
Usually a third of the total again, and the part most quotes forget to count.

About the place
Packing in London what it actually involves
London packs are different from the rest of the country, and it is the housing stock that does it. A city built on Victorian conversions, mansion blocks and lateral apartments holds far more glass, china, artwork and books per square metre than a modern suburb, so fragile packing is bought here as a service in its own right. Materials logistics matter as much as the wrapping: boxes have to arrive up a walk-up or through a booked goods lift days ahead, storage-chain moves need packing for storage rather than for a same-day unload, and ULEZ sits inside the quote instead of on the invoice.

4.5 ★ from 3,131 Trustpilot reviewsWorth Hiring for Moving services These guys have made my work so easy, they took care of all the items, packed it nicely and they got a big van which was sufficient enough to move my stuffs. I have recently shifted to Kingston and happy to call them for services when needed. Cheers!
Wanted a one off deep clean. The team were extremely thorough and I could not find anything that missed. Cleaned to a high standard and were very patient with us as I had to hold up their work while I moved boxes around due the my house move.
Cosmina and her mum did an amazing job cleaning my home, they were really thorough. They were even kind enough to help me move my boxes too. Will use them again and highly recommend!
