The cost depends on how much is moving, the journey and the work involved at each home. We look at those details together before giving you a fixed quote.
An outline of the contents of each room and an estimate of the boxes gives us a starting point. Flag anything particularly heavy, fragile or difficult to carry.
Include details of stairs, narrow entrances or steps outside at either home. A bungalow with a long garden path can involve more carrying than the address alone suggests.
We’ll need both full addresses and your preferred moving date to work out the journey and timing.
A move to a smaller house or bungalow can still mean moving most of a household. We’ll base your quote on what you’re taking, including anything from the garage or garden.

You can leave furniture off the list if it isn’t part of this removal, such as a wardrobe staying for the buyers or a table that family will collect themselves. Still deciding about a few pieces? Mention those separately in your enquiry.
Taking just a few pieces? Small Removals Bournemouth could be the simpler option.

We can also arrange the removal if you’re moving here from another part of the country.
Get my Bournemouth quoteThe bedroom count alone doesn’t tell us enough to price the removal. A house with a full garage and loft can be a much bigger job than another with the same number of rooms. Your quote takes the contents, access and journey into account.
An estimate is useful when you’re still packing. Include it with your room-by-room outline, then let us know if the amount changes significantly before the move.
Have your boxes packed, sealed and labelled before collection, and empty loose belongings from furniture. Keep the things you’ll need during the day, such as keys and important documents, with you.
You can include a link to a video or photos. Show the rooms and any furniture that needs particular care, along with tight turns or doorways that might be difficult to get it through.
Contact Porta as soon as the date changes so we can review the arrangements with you. A booking for the original date doesn’t confirm availability for a different one.
Send us the changes before moving day, even if it means there’s less to take. The quote is based on the move you described, so we’ll need to check whether the changes affect it.
Send us your moving details and we’ll work out a fixed quote for you to consider.
