Professional Removals in Thakeham

Before we move a single box in Thakeham, we take a proper look at the job — either a quick video walkthrough on your phone or a visit in person. That way we can see the stairs, the big wardrobe, the tight hallway, and give you a fixed price. On moving day there’s no "we didn’t know about that" and no extra charges tacked on at the end.

We’re a family-run firm based near Pulborough in West Sussex, doing house and business moves since 2016. We’re LAPADA members, Checkatrade-verified and fully insured, and we cover Thakeham and the wider West Sussex area. Tell us what you’re shifting and we’ll tell you exactly what it costs.

Local Moving in Thakeham

To price and plan a Thakeham move properly, we start with a quick walk-round — either a video call on your phone or an in-person survey, whichever suits you. Show us the rooms, the loft, the shed and the garage, tell us your rough dates and whether you’re tied to a completion day, and flag anything awkward: a heavy safe, a slate-topped table, glass shelving, or a piano. The more we see up front, the tighter the quote and the fewer unknowns once the van arrives. When you’re ready to firm things up, start with get a quote.

Access counts at both ends, so we ask about it early. Narrow lanes, a shared driveway, double-yellow lines, a stairwell, a lift that’s out of action or a first-floor flat all change how we load and how long the day runs — and we need the same picture at the new address, not just the one you’re leaving. That’s what tells us the right van size and the right number of crew. On the day we lay floor runners, pad doorframes and banisters, and wrap fragiles properly; larger antiques go through our specialised antiques moving service, and anything with keys and strings through piano moving.

If your sale and purchase don’t land on the same day — a chain that slips, or a gap of a week or a month between completions — we can hold your things in secure storage and bring them over once the keys are yours. And if you’d rather not box up the house yourself, our full packing service turns up with the materials and does the lot, from the kitchen cupboards to the wardrobes.

Every quote we give is a fixed price built from what we actually see on the survey, so you can weigh it against our published pricing and know exactly where you stand. You’ll have one coordinator on your booking from the first call through to the last box unloaded. We’re a family-run firm working from a West Sussex base, so Thakeham may be a fair drive for us rather than round the corner — we’ll always be straight with you about travel and timings when we quote.

Preparing for Your Thakeham Move

A little preparation makes a big difference to how smoothly your Thakeham removal runs. We recommend starting six to eight weeks ahead where you can: confirm your dates, book your survey and begin a room-by-room declutter so you only pay to move what you actually want in your new West Sussex home. Anything you are unsure about, our team is happy to advise on — from what can be stored to what is best left behind.

Packing is usually the biggest job of any Thakeham move. You can pack yourself using our boxes and materials, or hand it over entirely to our full packing service. Either way, we strongly recommend professional fragile packing for glassware, mirrors, artwork and anything sentimental. Label every box clearly by room, and keep a separate “first night” box of essentials so you are not hunting through cartons on your first evening in Thakeham.

In the final week before your Thakeham move, let your utility providers, bank and the West Sussex council know you are moving, arrange mail redirection, and run down your fridge and freezer ready for defrosting. It also pays to plan access at both properties — parking, narrow lanes, stairs or lifts — which we will already have noted at your survey so your Thakeham crew arrives ready to work. If your completion dates do not quite line up, our secure containerised storage bridges the gap for as long as you need.

On moving day itself, our trained, fully insured Thakeham team handles the heavy lifting, protects your floors and furniture as standard, and places everything in the right room at the other end — unpacking as much as you would like. To make your move easier still, you can download our free essential moving guide and work through it at your own pace.
