Packing a home properly takes most people a full weekend. Our London packing teams do it in hours, using the right materials for every item you own. Book a full pack, a part pack for just the rooms you'd rather skip, or order quality boxes and wrapping delivered straight to your door.
Takes 60 seconds. We'll reply within the hour, no pressure.
Most goods-in-transit insurance policies treat owner-packed boxes very differently from boxes packed by your removals crew. Standard policies typically exclude breakage cover for items the customer packed themselves, or limit liability to as little as £40 per item. Items our team packs are covered in full under our policy. That distinction matters when you're moving a kitchen full of crockery or artwork you can't replace. According to Compare My Move, the average professional packing service costs around £387 in the UK, which is a fraction of what replacing damaged belongings would cost.
Book a full pack and our team arrives the day before your move, works through every room, and leaves a home where every box is labelled by contents and destination room. Fragile crockery, framed pictures, wine glasses, electronics: all wrapped, layered and secured before they go in the van. Or book a part pack for just the rooms you'd rather leave to us. Kitchens and fragiles are where most people want help, and we can do exactly that. We also supply quality packing materials on their own if you'd prefer to self-pack but want proper boxes, not whatever was in the back of a supermarket.
Double-walled boxes for heavy items: books, dishes, kitchen equipment. Single-walled medium boxes for general household contents. Wardrobe boxes with hanging rails so clothes go in on hangers and arrive crease-free at the other end. Acid-free tissue paper for crockery and ceramics. Bubble wrap for lamps, mirrors and larger fragiles. Furniture blankets for items that won't go in a box. If you'd like packing combined with your removal in a single co-ordinated job, our packers and movers service handles everything from start to finish.
BAR member removal firms complete more than 250,000 UK home moves every year, and the thing customers say again and again is that unpacking is the part that drags on for weeks. Boxes sit in the spare room for months. We can unpack everything at your new home, dispose of all the packaging, and leave your rooms set up and usable on move day. Or just the kitchen and bedrooms if that's all you need. It's available as an optional extra when you book your packing service.
The number of rooms, how many fragile and specialist items you have, and whether you want the full house or just certain rooms packed are the main factors. A three-bed family home with a full kitchen of crockery takes a team a full day. A one-bed flat with just the kitchen and pictures takes a few hours. We quote based on a real assessment of your move, not a standard rate card, so you know exactly what you're paying before we start.
These starting rates give a realistic sense of what you'd pay. Every job is quoted individually before you confirm, so the price is fixed from the outset.

We'll give you a clear, all-in quote. Full pack, part pack or materials only, confirmed before we begin.
Your packers arrive the morning before your move, work through every room, and label every box so the crew can unload straight into the right rooms on move day.
Everything boxed, labelled and stacked neatly. The crew loads faster and your belongings arrive in better shape.
Goods-in-transit cover and £5m public liability as standard. Items our team packs are covered in full under the policy, giving you more protection than packing your own boxes.
You get a clear quote before we start. No add-ons for extra boxes, wrapping materials or time running over. What we agree is what you pay.
Packing day before your move, move day, unpacking at the new home: we co-ordinate all of it if you need us to, seven days a week including bank holidays.
Packers who wrap things correctly, fill boxes so they don't collapse, and never leave fragiles rattling around in a half-empty container.
A little preparation on your end makes the day faster and avoids last-minute hold-ups.
Real feedback from real customers across Trustpilot, Google and Facebook.
“The kitchen was my main worry. Forty years of crockery, everything precious to us. They packed the lot in under two hours and not a single piece was damaged. I watched them work. They clearly know what they're doing.”
“I was dreading the packing more than the move itself. They arrived at 8am, worked through every room, and by 2pm the whole house was done and labelled. I didn't have to make a single decision. Worth every penny.”
“We booked packing and unpacking. Arrived at the new flat and everything was already in the right rooms. Didn't live out of boxes for a single day. I'd recommend the unpacking service to anyone moving in London.”
