House Removal Costs in the UK

House removal prices vary depending on the size of your property, the number of belongings, distance travelled, and any extras like packing or storage. To give you a rough idea, here’s what you can typically expect in the UK:

• One-bedroom flat or studio: From around £300–£550 for a standard move with two movers and one van. Add another £150–£250 if you’d like full packing included.

• Two-bedroom home: Expect £500–£900, usually with a three-person crew and one or two vans. Full packing typically adds £250–£400 depending on volume.

• Three-bedroom house: Costs start around £900 and can reach £1,600 or more. These moves often require four or five movers, multiple vans, or an 18-tonne lorry. Packing services usually add £350–£600.

• Four-bedroom house: Larger family homes often range between £1,400 and £2,400, with five or six movers and at least one large lorry. Full packing can add £500–£800 to the total.

• Five-bedroom house and above: Moves of this scale are usually bespoke, often starting at £2,200 and reaching £4,000+, with a tailored survey to determine crew size and vehicle requirements.

Additional costs to keep in mind include:

• Packing materials (boxes, tape, covers)

• Furniture dismantling and assembly

• Stairs or poor access (long carries, parking distance)

• Parking permits or suspensions (especially in London)

• Congestion Charge or ULEZ fees in London

• Specialist items like pianos or safes

• Storage fees if needed

⏱️ How Long Does It Take House Movers to Empty a House?

The time it takes movers to empty a property depends on factors like crew size, ease of access, and how prepared you are with packing. Homes with good access, reserved parking, and organised boxes are always quicker to clear. Here’s a guide based on typical UK house sizes:

🏘️ 3-Bed House

For a typical three-bedroom house, removal companies often send a team of four to five movers. It usually takes 4–5 hours to load and 3–4 hours to unload, depending on access and volume. Larger family homes often have bulkier furniture and more fragile items, which require extra wrapping and careful handling.

📦 Adding Packing Time

If you’ve booked packing services, factor in additional time before moving day. Fragile-only packing (glassware, kitchenware, ornaments) can take an extra day for most 2–4 bedroom homes. Full packing (entire contents of the property) often adds 1–2 full days depending on the size of the house and number of packers.

💡 Pro Tip

Most removal companies start early, between 7–8am, to ensure the house is cleared before midday key handovers. Always arrange parking permits or suspensions at both addresses in advance to avoid delays and fines.
