Questions, answered plainly

The county end to end — Taunton, Wellington and central Somerset; Bridgwater and the Levels; Yeovil and the south; Wells, Glastonbury, Street and Frome in the east; and the coast around Burnham-on-Sea. If you’re near the Devon, Dorset or Wiltshire borders, ask — most of those moves are straightforward for us.

House moves are the core of what we do — from a town house in Taunton to a village cottage near Wells or a farmhouse out on the Levels. We match the crew and vehicle to the property and the access, pack as much or as little as you want, and rebuild beds and wardrobes at the other end.

Yes — we move offices and small businesses around Taunton, Bridgwater and Yeovil. We plan the sequence so IT and desks come apart and go back together in the right order, and we can work around your week — evenings or a weekend — to keep the disruption down.

We do, and it’s one of our most-asked-for services. If your dates don’t line up — the sale completes before the purchase, or you’re between places for a while — we can store your things in a clean, secure unit and bring them out when you’re ready. It folds into the same plan, so you deal with one team throughout.

The whole house or just the parts you’d rather not tackle — the kitchen and the breakables are the usual ones. Everything is boxed with proper materials, labelled by room, and listed on an inventory so nothing goes missing between the two ends.

Constantly — it’s Somerset. Narrow lanes, gravel drives, low barn doorways and the occasional field gate are all part of the job. We check the access at the survey and plan the right vehicle, whether that’s a full lorry or a smaller shuttle van to reach a tight spot.

France, Italy, Spain and Portugal. Each is a road-planned move — loaded in Somerset, up the M5 to the M4/M25 and the Channel crossings, then on to the destination. We prepare the post-Brexit customs paperwork so your things clear cleanly at the border.

We prepare the inventory and the transit and customs documents a household move now needs, and file them for you. Timing at the border depends on the route and the paperwork rather than a fixed schedule, and your written quote sets out what to expect for your particular move.

The sooner the better, especially for a weekend or the end of the month when everyone moves at once. That said, always ask — if we can fit a shorter-notice move in safely, we’ll tell you honestly whether we can.

The crew arrives, protects the floors and doorways, and works room by room. Anything not already packed is wrapped and boxed, furniture is dismantled where it needs to be, and everything is loaded to a plan. At the other end it comes off in the order that makes sense and goes where you want it.

Yes, with the right kit and enough hands. Somerset has plenty of period homes and farmhouses with narrow stairs and low beams, so tell us at the survey — an upright versus a baby grand, a heavy dresser, a wardrobe that won’t take the turn — and we’ll plan how it’s protected and carried.

Tell us as early as you can and we’ll do our best to move things around. Dates near month-end and Saturdays fill up first, so a bit of notice gives us the most room to help. The specifics of any deposit or rescheduling sit in the booking terms.
