Urgent removals in York for when plans fall apart. Some things in life are certain: the sun goes in the second you buy an ice cream, and your team scores as soon as you leave the room. Moves going wrong at the last minute is another one. When it happens, we can usually help, often the same day or the next.

Seven Days a Week, and Out of Hours When It Matters
Emergencies don't take Dolly's advice and stick to 9 to 5. Our normal hours are 9am to 7pm, every day of the week including bank holidays, and when it's genuinely urgent we'll arrange an earlier start or later finish. Call us and we'll tell you straight away what we can do.
When the Chain Wobbles on Moving Day
Things suddenly move faster than planned, completion is brought forward, or the firm you booked doesn't turn up. Get in touch as soon as you know. On completion day everything happens at once, so we start early and get the van loaded before the money changes hands, ready to go as soon as you have the keys. Our last-minute house move checklist helps you get ready in a hurry.
For a normal planned move, see our house removals page.
Urgent Help for York Businesses
An order that has to go out today, or a supplier who's let you down and kit that needs to be in place by tomorrow. We're always glad to help a fellow business. Hat maker in Harrogate, baker in Bridlington or chef in Sheffield, we'll move it at short notice. Planned business moves are covered on our office removals page.
Fast Doesn't Have to Mean Expensive
A short-notice move sounds like it should cost a fortune. It doesn't with us. Urgent removals in York start from £75 an hour, the same as any other move, with no extra fee for booking late and no VAT. The price we give you is the price you pay. Every move has £10,000 Goods in Transit cover.
