What makes a MB move different
Some removals firms quote low, arrive late and add charges at the door. We quote one figure on the phone, agree it with you, then turn up on time with blankets, straps and a tail lift. What we quote is what you pay, full stop.
We have moved every kind of Manchester home: two up two downs in Chorlton, Victorian terraces in Didsbury, high rise flats in the city centre, converted mills in Ancoats and everything in between. The route, the parking, the lift booking, we handle it all before you even think about it.
What is included in every move
- Tail lift van sized to the job, from a compact city van to a full Luton box
- Furniture blankets, webbing straps, sofa covers and floor runners
- Beds, wardrobes and dining tables taken apart and rebuilt at the other end
- Extra helper priced in from the start for stairs, lifts and heavy items
- Goods in transit insurance for everything on the van
- The old place left tidy, rubbish and packaging taken away with us
Flats, apartments and the lift problem
Apartment moves are a different sport. Service lifts that need booking, loading bays with time limits, concierge desks with rules, corridors with ninety degree turns. We know the buildings, Deansgate Square, the Quays towers, the Ancoats mills, and we arrive prepared with the right team and the right plan.
For high rise moves we recommend the driver plus one helper option. It halves the lift shuttling time and means somebody always stays with the van, which matters when loading zones are watched by wardens.
Victorian terraces, our bread and butter
Greater Manchester runs on Victorian terraces and they were not designed for modern furniture. Narrow front doors, tight hallways, steep staircases with a bend at the top, and parking that disappears at school run time.
This is where we genuinely earn our keep. We know how to angle a three seater through a Chorlton door frame, we carry compact dollies for narrow halls, and we always check the street parking before we arrive. No scratched paint, no blocked driveways, no parking tickets.
Moving day, hour by hour
- We call ahead with a thirty minute arrival window
- Floors and stairs protected, furniture wrapped as it comes out
- Everything loaded and strapped, one trip for most homes
- Unloaded, placed and rebuilt at the new address
- Final walk through with you before we leave, every time
