Why our guides are different
Moving advice from people who actually move homes — every week, across Sussex.
Most moving advice online is written by people who have never carried a wardrobe down a narrow Victorian staircase. Ours is different. Wolves Removals is a family-run firm based near Ashington in West Sussex, moving homes and offices across Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire and Kent since 2016. Every guide here comes out of work our own crews have done — what actually gets damaged, what takes longer than people expect, and what makes the difference between a calm move and a scramble.

How to Move a Wardrobe
Dismantling a wardrobe is not free. Every time a flat-pack carcass comes apart it goes back together a little looser, so the first question is not how to take it…

How to Pack Glasses and Plates
Plates go in standing on their edge, glasses are stuffed before they are wrapped, and the box should be a good deal lighter than you would fill it. Here is the…
