National removals from York cover anywhere in mainland UK. Our own crew plans the route and timings so the van arrives when your keys are ready, wraps and straps every piece of furniture, and drives carpeted, GPS-tracked vans. Every move has £10,000 Goods in Transit cover, and there's no VAT on our prices.
National removals from York, by the same crew who move families across the city every week. We haven't driven every road in Britain, but from Aberdeen to Zennor we've moved people the length of the country, and we've learned what makes a long move go well.
A long-distance move is a local move with a big road in the middle. The loading, the wrapping and the care at the other end are the same. What changes is the planning, and that's where we put the effort in.
Long-Distance Removals Planned Mile by Mile
Over the years we've clocked up a lot of miles from our base in York, moving homes, offices, upright pianos and motorbikes. Before a long move we plan the route, the timings and any stops, so the van arrives when your keys are ready and not two hours before. Picking efficient routes saves you time and money, and cuts our fuel use too.
Our normal hours are 9am to 7pm, seven days a week. For long moves we'll arrange an early start or a later finish so everything is in the right place when you get there.
The Tools of a Long-Distance Move
Blacksmiths have anvils, doctors have stethoscopes, and we have ratchet straps, dollies and moving blankets. Every piece of furniture is wrapped before it goes on the van and strapped so it can't shift, whether the trip is 20 miles or 200. Our vans are carpeted, so nothing slides about or picks up scuffs on the way. What leaves your old home is what arrives at your new one.
Check the removal vehicle sizes page to see which van suits your move.
National Removal Prices, Told Straight
Few things annoy us more than firms that sneak in extra charges, except perhaps people taking loud speakerphone calls on the train. The price we agree is the price you pay, and we're not VAT registered, so there's no VAT on top.
A long-distance move is priced on the time it takes. Give us your addresses and a rough list of what's going, and we'll give you a clear figure before anything is booked. For a fixed price, send a short video walk-through of your home.
