Typical figures from central Watford. Traffic decides the day, so we plan the departure around it.
One day or two
For a flat or a small house, one long day works. For a family house we often suggest loading the afternoon before and driving first thing, so the unload is not rushed into the evening. We tell you which we recommend when we quote, not on the day.
Your things stay in the same van with the same crew throughout, with no depot stop and no transfer to another vehicle.
The Manchester end
City centre apartments in Manchester and Salford Quays usually need a goods lift and loading bay booked, and the Victorian terraces in the south of the city have the same narrow halls and permit streets as north Watford. Tell us the building or the street and we will plan it.
What it costs
Long-distance moves from Watford start from £350. The figure for your move depends on its size and the access at both ends, and covers the whole trip door to door. See our prices page for starting figures, or send both addresses for one fixed price.
