The Quays is a move made of logistics: service lifts with booking windows, underground car parks with height barriers, loading bays shared by half a building and parking wardens who know every trick. We move in and out of the towers constantly and we arrive with the plan already made.
For most Quays moves we recommend the driver plus helper option. The lift shuttling is the bottleneck, and a second pair of hands halves it, plus somebody stays with the van at all times, which matters in the shared bays.
Local know how, not satnav hope
Our van is based at 20 to 25 minutes from here, and we have moved enough homes in this postcode to know the streets, the parking and the property types without a second look. Every job gets the same gear and the same straight price, quoted before we leave the yard.
