Removal prices in York: how our hourly pricing works

Most house moves are charged by the hour: a van fee plus your crew's time. Below you'll find our local rates, a simulator to see how the hours add up, and how to get a fixed price.

Quick answer

How are removal prices worked out?

Removal prices in York are worked out by the hour, from £75 per hour, plus a one-off van fee you pay when you book, which secures your date. You pay whole hours from arrival at the first address until the last item is unloaded. There is no VAT and no weekend surcharge.

York removal prices: van fee plus an hourly crew

The van fee covers the vehicle and fuel. The hourly rate covers your crew, who load, drive and unload. Single items and specialist jobs such as upright piano moves are flat-rate.

  • No VAT added. We're not VAT registered.
  • No weekend surcharge. Saturday costs the same as Tuesday.
  • No card details online. Secure your date with the van fee by bank transfer, then pay the balance to your driver once the last item is unloaded.
