Most Ilford house removals start at £390 for a Luton Box Van and 3-person crew (£130 an hour, 3-hour minimum), then the same hourly rate in whole hours, with any overrun charged in 30-minute steps. Larger homes can move to a fixed quote. A prepared two-bed terrace stays closer to the minimum; a fuller three- or four-bed in IG5 or IG6 with loft and garage contents needs more time. Insurance, blankets and straps are included, with no weekend premium; stairs and mileage are priced up front. Email bedroom count, both postcodes and photos and we will say whether hourly or fixed is clearer.
Yes. Beds, wardrobes and dining tables can be dismantled at the old house and rebuilt at the new one when agreed before move day. That matters on tight terrace stairs around IG1–IG3 and in loft conversions. Prices come from our dismantling list, with a £90 minimum booking. Photograph custom or fragile pieces first. Email the pictures and we will mark what must come apart.
Yes. Fixed quotes work well when inventory, parking and access are clear, especially family homes with loft or garage contents, or moves from Ilford to elsewhere in the UK. Send room count, photos of bulky items, driveway or CPZ notes and whether you need packing or dismantling. Lighter, well-prepared houses with easy parking can stay hourly. We will explain what is included, plus mileage and any stair charge, before you compare quotes.
Yes, when loft, shed and garage contents are in the quote. IG4–IG6 family homes often hide heavy or awkward items that change van size and timing. Tell us about loft hatch size, garage steps, garden routes and anything going to the tip. A few photos are usually enough. We will size the crew and van so it all fits in one visit.
Yes. Every Ilford house removal includes £10,000 goods in transit cover, with blankets, straps and careful loading. Cover runs from collection to delivery while our crew handles your things. Declare antiques or art for packing notes. If a landlord or managing agent asks for proof before access, we send documents at confirmation.
Yes. Full packing, kitchen-only packing or fragile wrapping can be added before or on move day. Packing packages start at £400 for a one-bedroom home and £600 for two bedrooms, labour and materials included. Many people pack bedrooms themselves and leave the kitchen to us. Email room photos or a box estimate and we will recommend the right level, timed with the van.
