Man with Van West London Execellent services of Man with Van West London Focused on making our move effortless The two guys that turned up from the House Moving Company were on time and worked extremely hard. We were able to load up both lorrys that came and get to London and unload all in the space of 5 hours which was great. They both took great care with the items that were moved and were professional throughout. 4-6 weeks door-to-door via direct Atlantic routes (10-14 days sea freight). Dedicated containers: 3-4 weeks. Snowbird season (Nov-Apr) adds 1-2 weeks.
1-bed: £2,100-£3,400 (part-load) or £4,600-£6,500 (dedicated). 3-bed: £4,300-£6,400 (part-load) or £7,800-£11,000 (dedicated).
