FAQ
How much does it cost to move a flat?+
Moving a flat costs £250-£700 for a local move, depending on the size of the flat and floor level. A ground-floor 1-bed flat is cheapest, while a top-floor 2-bed without a lift will cost more.
Does floor level affect moving cost?+
Yes, significantly. Each flight of stairs adds time and effort. Expect to pay 10-20% more per floor above ground level if there is no lift. Buildings with service lifts have minimal extra cost.
Can movers get a sofa down narrow stairs?+
Experienced movers can handle most sofas, but very large corner sofas may not fit through tight stairwells. Measure your staircase width and doorways before moving day, and let your movers know in advance.
