Questions & answers

The things people ask us most, answered plainly. If yours isn’t here, just ask — we’re happy to talk it through.

Which areas around Stratford-upon-Avon do you cover?

We are based in Stratford-upon-Avon and cover the town and its surrounding Warwickshire villages — Shottery, Tiddington, Wellesbourne, Alcester, Henley-in-Arden, Shipston-on-Stour, Bidford-on-Avon and out towards Warwick. For moves abroad we collect from across the wider Midlands as well.

How do I get a quote, and will you give me a figure over the phone?

Fill in the quote form with the basics of your move, or call us. We do not read out a number before we understand the job — that way lies the sort of estimate that changes on the day. Instead we take your details, talk through anything unusual, and send you a written quote you can rely on.

Do you pack, or is that extra work I arrange myself?

We pack as much or as little as you like. Some customers want a full packing service down to the last picture frame; others box the everyday things themselves and leave us the awkward, fragile and heavy items. Tell us which suits you and we will price the move accordingly.

Can you handle a period cottage — narrow stairs, low beams, tight lanes?

That is much of what we do here. Stratford and its villages are full of listed cottages, timber-framed houses and lanes a large lorry cannot reach. We assess access when we quote, bring the right vehicle and equipment, and protect original features — beams, flagstones, staircases — as we work.

Do you offer storage if there is a gap between homes?

Yes. If your dates do not line up — a common thing in a chain — we can store your belongings securely and complete the move when you are ready. It is also useful for downsizing moves and for holding a part-load before an international departure.

Are you insured?

Yes. We carry goods-in-transit and public liability cover, and we will confirm the details in writing with your quote. If your move includes anything of unusual value — fine art, an antique, an instrument — tell us so we can make sure it is properly accounted for.

Do you move abroad as well as locally?

We do. Alongside local Warwickshire moves we run a European and Mediterranean arm — France, Spain, Portugal and Cyprus have their own dedicated pages. We handle the packing, the customs paperwork and the delivery to the door at the far end.
