How it works

Three steps and one written figure

  1. Tell us the home

    Bedrooms, what you want packed and photos or a quick video walk-round. That is enough to size a East Dulwich pack without anyone visiting.

  2. Fixed quote and box plan

    Packer count, hours and every box, roll and cover in one figure, with London Borough of Southwark parking for the materials drop already sorted.

  3. Packed and labelled

    Room by room, fragiles wrapped individually, inventory handed over, plus unpacking and box collection in SE22 where booked.

Why us

Why East Dulwich 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.

Fragile-heavy period homes in East Dulwich

China cabinets, stemware, mirrors, framed art and shelves of books are the real job here. Plates travel on edge in cell-divided cartons, glasses go glass-in-glass, and books go in small boxes so nobody has to lift 30kg down a period staircase.

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 for East Dulwich are delivered two to five days ahead with parking handled — narrow terraced streets, resident bays and side returns too tight for a luton.
  • Congestion Charge and ULEZ are inside the quoted figure and never appear on the invoice.
  • Book- and china-heavy homes cost more in boxes and hours; with 58.2% owner-occupied here we price that honestly up front rather than on the day.

Box plan

How many boxes a East Dulwich home needs about 56–93 boxes

Sized for East Dulwich: homes here average about 2.7 bedrooms and 43% are flats, so this is the plan a typical SE22 pack actually needs. Every box, roll and cover in it is inside the quoted price.

  • Kitchen11–18

    Cell-divided cartons for glass, plates packed on edge, pans in mediums.

  • Living room and books14–23

    Books in small boxes only — nothing over 20kg on a London staircase.

  • Bedrooms and wardrobes12–20

    Hanging clothes straight into wardrobe boxes on loan, drawers into larges.

  • Bathroom, hallway and study6–10

    Liquids bagged and boxed separately, cables and tech in one labelled carton.

  • Fragiles — china, glass, art, mirrors5–9

    Wrapped individually in paper, then bubble, then boxed with corner protection.

  • Loft, garage and shed8–13

    Usually a third of the total again, and the part most quotes forget to count.

About the place

Packing in East Dulwich what it actually involves

East Dulwich is period stock near Dulwich Park, and that shapes every pack: china cabinets, stemware, mirrors, framed prints and long runs of shelving. Rooms average around 2.7 bedrooms and hold far more glass and paper than a modern flat, so a fragile packing day is often booked on its own. Narrow returns on the stairs decide how boxes are filled — small and heavy, large and light.

Area at a glance

East Dulwich SE22 by the numbers

Bedrooms, housing type and how long people stay are what decide a box count — so the pack is priced from the home, not the postcode. These are the published Census 2021 figures for the East Dulwich neighbourhood itself — not Southwark-wide averages, and not estimates.
