What to Expect with Porta’s Appliance Moving Service
Our appliance moving service is designed to give you peace of mind from start to finish. Whether you're moving a single white good or coordinating multiple deliveries, our network of independent drivers take care of the heavy lifting so you don't have to.
Here’s what you can expect when you book with Porta:
✔ Two-Person Teams for Safe Handling
Most appliances are heavy, bulky and difficult to manoeuvre. That’s why our network includes trained two-person teams equipped to lift, load, and secure your items without damage to the appliance or your property.
We treat every item with care, ensuring door frames, flooring, and fittings are protected throughout the process.
✔ Insurance Claim Support on Standard and Premium
Standard and Premium bookings include goods-in-transit insurance claim support arranged through Porta. If anything unexpected happens during transit, Porta can help facilitate a claim on your behalf.
✔ Flexible Delivery Options
We offer same-day, next-day, and scheduled delivery slots to match your needs. Whether you're clearing out a kitchen today or planning a delivery for next week, our service adapts to your timeline.
This makes us ideal for time-sensitive upgrades, tenant turnovers, or customer deliveries.
✔ No Need for Specialist Packaging
Most couriers demand boxed or palletised appliances. We don’t. Our drivers will collect the item as it is, providing blankets, padding, and straps for secure loading and transport.
That means no disassembly, no hunting for packaging materials, and no stress.
✔ Real-Time SMS Updates (Standard and Premium)
On Standard and Premium bookings, you'll receive real-time SMS updates throughout the delivery so you always know where your appliance is and when to expect it.
✔ Nationwide Coverage with Local Knowledge
From major cities like London and Birmingham to rural areas across the UK, our appliance movers operate everywhere.
We work with drivers local to your collection point and destination, ensuring better route knowledge, smoother access, and faster turnarounds.

Transparent Pricing & Delivery Options
At Porta Delivery, we believe in simple, transparent pricing that reflects exactly what you need — no flat-rate fees, no unnecessary extras. The cost of moving an appliance depends on a few key factors, but we keep it clear from the start.
Here’s what affects your price:
1. The Type of Appliance
Larger, heavier items like American fridge freezers or chest freezers require more handling and may need a two-person team. Smaller items such as dishwashers or tumble dryers can often be moved by a single person if you’re available to assist.
2. Team Size Required
If you’re able to help carry the item at either end, a 1-person team is usually sufficient. But if you'd rather not lift a finger, a 2-person crew ensures your appliance is handled completely by us — perfect for upstairs flats or heavy goods.
3. Delivery Speed & Flexibility
You’ll save money by choosing our Eco/Flexible option, which allows us to match your job with an existing route over a few days. If you need a guaranteed collection and delivery slot, our Fixed Date service offers that extra certainty.
4. Distance Travelled
Longer distances do increase the cost slightly, but our algorithm ensures you're only paying for the mileage and time your job actually needs. No generic zone charges or postcode surcharges here.

Frequently Asked Questions About Appliance Moves
Do I need to disconnect my appliance before collection?
Yes. Appliances should be safely disconnected, unplugged, and drained before collection. This includes switching off water supplies and ensuring hoses or drip trays are emptied. Porta's drivers are not qualified to disconnect plumbing or gas lines, so arrange this in advance.
How much does it cost to move an appliance in the UK?
Pricing depends on the appliance type, the distance between collection and delivery, your chosen service tier, and whether you need a one or two-person team. Porta shows you an instant fixed price when you enter your postcodes — no bidding, no waiting, no hidden fees.
Can you move an American fridge freezer?
Yes. Porta's drivers regularly move oversized appliances including American fridge freezers, range cookers, and commercial chillers. These typically require a two-person team. The booking system will guide you through the options based on your item.
What insurance cover is available for appliance delivery?
Porta offers three tiers. Essential bookings mean insurance responsibility sits with the independent driver. Standard bookings include goods-in-transit insurance claim support arranged through Porta. Premium bookings add faster resolution on top. For high-value appliances, Standard or Premium is recommended.
Do I need to package my appliance before collection?
No packaging is needed in most cases. As long as the appliance is clean, disconnected, and ready to go, the driver will secure it using blankets, straps, and padding during loading and transit.
Can you collect from upstairs flats or difficult access locations?
Yes. Let Porta know when booking if the appliance is upstairs, in a basement, or if access is limited. A two-person team is strongly recommended for non-ground floor collections. Select this option at checkout and the right team will be assigned.
Can you deliver appliances the same day?
Yes. Porta offers a same-day delivery option for urgent appliance moves. Availability depends on driver routes in your area, so book as early in the day as possible for the best chance of same-day collection and delivery.
How are appliances secured during transit?
Drivers use straps, blankets, and padding to secure appliances inside the van. Items that need to stay upright — such as fridges and washing machines — are positioned and strapped accordingly. All items are transported point-to-point with no depot handling.
Can I move multiple appliances in one booking?
Yes. Add all your appliances when requesting a quote and Porta will calculate the best combined price. This is common for kitchen refits, landlords replacing white goods across properties, and house moves.
Do you deliver appliances bought on eBay or Facebook Marketplace?
Yes. Porta's eBay collection service and marketplace collection and delivery service both handle appliance pickups from sellers. The driver collects from the seller's address and delivers to your door — no van hire or awkward meetups needed.
