How a London to Exeter move runs

London to Exeter is a two day move for most households. We load on day one, your belongings stay sealed on the vehicle overnight, and we deliver the following morning.

Crews arrive at the London address early with protection, materials and an inventory. Floors and door frames are covered before a single box moves, furniture is dismantled and wrapped, and everything is listed as it goes on the vehicle.

Most London moves we handle are people trading flat space and commuting time for a house and a garden, so the load is usually flats worth of furniture with a lot of boxes and few very large items.

Access in London

Almost every London load needs planning: bay suspensions through the borough, service lift bookings in mansion blocks and new build towers, and narrow Victorian staircases that need runners and bannister protection. Where an 18 tonne lorry cannot reach the door we shuttle with a smaller van.

We regularly load in Islington, Clapham, Hackney, Wandsworth and Ealing, covering all London postcodes from N and NW to SE, SW, E, W and EC across Greater London.

Delivery and access in Exeter

St Leonards and Topsham have narrow lanes where an 18 tonne vehicle will not turn, so smaller vehicles or a shuttle are planned in from the start.

Deliveries cover St Leonards, Heavitree, Pennsylvania, Topsham and Alphington, across EX postcodes across Exeter and the surrounding villages in Devon. Furniture is rebuilt and placed room by room, and boxes go to the room marked on the label rather than being stacked in the hall.

What a London to Exeter removal costs

Long distance pricing comes down to volume, access at both ends, how much packing you want and whether the move needs an overnight. On this route a three bedroom house typically lands between £1,700 and £2,450.

Every figure we send is a fixed written price after a free video or home survey. Mileage, fuel, crew time, the overnight element and standard protection materials are all inside it. There is no hourly meter and no bill arriving after the move.

Packing, part loads and storage

Choose a full pack where we do everything the day before, a fragile only pack for kitchens and glassware, or a self pack with materials delivered to you in advance. Wardrobe cartons, mattress covers, TV cases and artwork cases are all available.

Smaller london to exeter moves can travel as a part load, sharing a vehicle with another job on the same corridor. It is noticeably cheaper in exchange for a wider delivery window, which suits people moving into rented accommodation.

Devon storage covers the gap when a rural purchase runs late. Containerised storage near the M25 covers chain delays, with your goods sealed in the same containers from collection to final delivery.
