What to Know

THINGS THAT AFFECT YOUR PACK

Every packing job is different. A few factors will shape the time, materials and team size needed — and we'll always discuss these with you upfront.

  • Volume of items — The more rooms and items, the longer the packing time.
  • Number of fragile items — Specialist packing takes more time and material.
  • Flat-pack complexity — Complex assemblies may need more time to rebuild precisely.
  • Access & floor level — Lifts and floor levels can affect how long loading takes.
  • Packing materials — Extra materials may be charged on top if you need large quantities.

FAQs

COMMON QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know about our packing and assembly service.

Can I book packing without a removal?
Yes — our packing and assembly services can be booked as a completely standalone service. You don't need to be using us for your removal. Just give us a call and we'll arrange a quote.
Do you supply all packing materials?
Yes. When you book our full packing service, all materials are included — boxes, bubble wrap, tape, blankets and specialist wrapping. If extra materials are required beyond the standard amount, this will be discussed and agreed beforehand.
How long does packing take?
It depends on the size of your property and number of items. A 1-bed flat typically takes 2–3 hours to pack. A 3-bed house can take 4–6 hours. We'll give you an accurate estimate based on your specific situation before booking.
Can you reassemble IKEA furniture?
Absolutely. IKEA and all flat-pack furniture is something we handle regularly — PAX wardrobes, KALLAX units, HEMNES beds and more. Our team brings all the tools needed and works from the original instructions or experience to rebuild everything correctly.
What if something gets damaged during packing?
We take every precaution to prevent damage. However, all moves are covered by goods-in-transit insurance, so in the unlikely event that something is damaged, you are covered. We'll always address any issues promptly and professionally.
Do you do partial packing — just certain rooms?
Yes. If you've already packed most of your home and just need help with specific rooms, fragile items or heavy furniture — we can absolutely work with that. We're flexible and happy to tailor the service to exactly what you need.
