Your Move handled with care

Q: How much does it cost to move house in the UK?

The cost of moving depends on a variety of factors — including distance, property size, packing requirements, and storage needs. We also take into account specialist services such as fine art handling, antique crating, and shuttle vans for properties with restricted access.

Start early by decluttering, clearly labelling your boxes, and confirming your moving date. Our removals team can help with packing, logistics, and any last-minute concerns. Download our free moving checklist to help you get organised.

Q: Can Bishop’s Move help me move abroad?

Q: Do you offer storage before, during, or after a move?

Yes — we have over 20 secure storage locations across the UK. Whether you’re between homes, travelling, or just need extra space, we can store anything from a few boxes to your entire property contents. Learn more about our flexible storage options.

Q: Do you move small offices, or can you handle larger business relocations too?
