Worthing is one of the largest South Coast towns and a popular destination for retirees and London-leavers seeking sea air at lower prices than Brighton.

Under 50 miles • 2-3 bed average
£580 – £1250
50+ miles • 2-3 bed average
The average house move cost in Worthing is £310–£580 for a typical 2–3 bed home moving locally, covering loading, transport and unloading by a professional removal company. Long-distance moves from Worthing run £580–£1250 depending on distance and volume.
Worthing local moves run £310–£580, and the town’s appeal — sea air at noticeably lower prices than Brighton — shapes who is moving. A lot of the work here is retirees downsizing and buyers arriving from London, which means part-loads, storage between sales and long-distance inbound jobs are all routine for local firms. The Victorian and Edwardian conversions near the seafront come with narrow staircases and metered parking; the interwar semis in Goring and Durrington are straightforward driveway jobs.
Brighton is only 11 miles along the coast at £250–£440, Crawley is £300–£510, Portsmouth £330–£580 and London £400–£690 over 60 miles. That London figure is competitive for the distance because so many vans run the A24 and A23 corridors — if you are moving down from the capital, ask specifically about return-load pricing, since firms taking a load north frequently have space coming back. Summer is peak on this coast; autumn and winter dates book easily.

Moving Tips for Worthing
- 1
Confirm parking and any access restrictions at both ends of your move in Worthing before the day - older streets and apartment blocks can slow loading.
- 2
Mid-week, mid-month moves in Worthing 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 Worthing firms - prices vary widely between operators.
Moving and Storage in Worthing
If there's a gap between moving out and moving in, most removal companies serving Worthing 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.
