Removal Costs
in Corby
Corby is a fast-growing former steel town with affordable family housing and good A14 / A1 access.
£260 – £500
Under 50 miles • 2-3 bed average
£520 – £1150
50+ miles • 2-3 bed average
The average house move cost in Corby is £260–£500 for a typical 2–3 bed home moving locally, covering loading, transport and unloading by a professional removal company. Long-distance moves from Corby run £520–£1150 depending on distance and volume.
Corby is one of the cheaper places in the country to arrange a move at £260–£500 locally, and the town’s post-war layout is a large part of why. The estates were built with wide roads, generous verges and off-street parking, so a van can usually reverse to the door and the crew loses no time walking. Access is rarely the complication it is in older Northamptonshire towns, which keeps crew hours — and therefore the quote — at the bottom of the range.
Almost everything within reach of Corby prices as barely more than a local job. Kettering is £250–£430 over nine miles, Northampton £290–£490, Leicester £290–£500 and Peterborough £300–£520. With four decent-sized towns that close, there are plenty of firms willing to travel for the work, so getting three quotes is genuinely worth doing here — the spread between operators on an identical job is often wider than the difference between a local move and a 25-mile one.

Moving Tips for Corby
- 1
Confirm parking and any access restrictions at both ends of your move in Corby before the day - older streets and apartment blocks can slow loading.
- 2
Mid-week, mid-month moves in Corby are typically 10-20% cheaper than Friday or end-of-month slots.
- 3
If you're moving from a flat, check whether the building has a goods lift or restricted move-in hours.
- 4
Always compare quotes from at least three local Corby firms - prices vary widely between operators.
Moving and Storage in Corby
If there's a gap between moving out and moving in, most removal companies serving Corby offer removals with storage: your belongings are loaded once into a sealed container, stored, and delivered when you're ready. Expect the transport leg to cost about the same as a standard local move, plus typically £20–£40 per week per container for the storage itself.
Containerised storage through your remover halves the handling compared with filling a self-storage unit yourself — and if you book both moves with the same firm, ask for a discount on the second leg. Full details in our moving to storage cost guide.
