Retail / Shop Move across London, done properly

A shop move can’t stop the till ringing for days. Our retail and shop relocation service is planned around your trading hours — evenings, overnight and quiet days — so you close one door and open another with minimum lost sales.

We move fixtures, stock, till points, mannequins and back-of-house kit with a labelled plan, so everything has a place in the new unit. Fragile displays and glass get extra protection; heavy shelving is dismantled and rebuilt where agreed.

From independent boutiques to multi-unit rollouts, you get one project contact, a clear quote and a crew used to working in customer-facing spaces without leaving a mess behind.

How it works, step by step

We’ve refined our process across London moves every week to keep everything simple and predictable. Here’s exactly what happens from your first enquiry through to completion.

  1. 1

    Get your free quote

    Tell us what you need moving, your pickup and delivery addresses and your preferred date. Start your quote in under a minute — we usually reply with a clear fixed price within about one working hour. No site visit required for most jobs; a free home survey is available for larger moves.

  2. 2

    Confirm your booking

    Pick a date and time that suits you. A small deposit is only asked when you confirm the booking — it comes off your final balance. We’ll send a confirmation with everything you need to prepare, plus a friendly reminder as the day approaches.

  3. 3

    We prepare and protect

    On the day, our uniformed crew arrives on time with blankets, straps and trolleys. We protect floors, doorways and furniture before anything is lifted, so your home and your belongings stay in perfect condition.

  4. 4

    Careful transport

    Your items are loaded, secured and driven safely to the destination by an experienced London driver who knows the boroughs, the permit zones and the quickest routes at any time of day.

  5. 5

    Unload and settle in

    We place everything exactly where you want it, reassemble anything we took apart and only leave once you’re completely happy. Payment is taken on completion — simple and stress-free.

How much does it cost?

Every job is quoted clearly before we arrive. Your price is built from van size, crew, access and distance, with the first 10 journey miles included. See our pricing page for the full rate card.

Hourly man-and-van services start from £50/hour with a two-hour minimum. After the minimum, extra time is billed in 30-minute blocks. Full house removals receive a fixed quotation based on inventory, access and distance.

Quotes are free — no deposit or card details just to enquire. A small deposit only applies when you confirm a booking.

WhatsApp or call with your addresses — most replies within about one working hour. Larger jobs can book a free home survey.

What affects the price

A few practical factors move the final number up or down. Knowing them in advance helps you plan and, in many cases, keep costs lower:

  • The volume of items and the size of van required
  • How many crew members or helpers you need
  • Access at both addresses — stairs, lifts and carry distance
  • Total mileage beyond the first 10 included miles
  • Timing — evenings, weekends, bank holidays and same-day bookings
  • Optional extras such as packing, dismantling or storage

What customers say

Customer review
The crew wrapped every piece of furniture and had us moved across town before lunch. Fixed price with no surprises — the most stress-free move we've ever had.

Customer review
Polite, quick and genuinely careful with every single box. They got a huge sofa up a narrow staircase without a scratch. Couldn't recommend them more.

FAQs

That’s our preferred approach for retail. We’ll agree a close time, crew size and reopen target so you’re trading again as fast as possible.

We can relocate most shop equipment. Specialist refrigeration or gas-connected kit may need your engineer — we’ll flag that at quoting stage.

Retail moves are quoted individually after a short walkthrough or video survey, covering crew, vehicles, timing and any fixture work.
