Furniture on the upper floors
Let us know which floor the bigger pieces are on and what the stairs are like, especially any tight turns near the top. A couple of photos of the staircase will tell us more than a description can.

Great service. Driver, Rajat, was excellent. He kept us informed. The pick up and drop off were carried out with care and attention to premises and items being shipped. Would recommend.
Older houses over several floors
A lot of Brighton and Hove houses are older terraces. Some go up three or four floors, some sit on steep streets and plenty have steps up to the front door. It all affects how long a move takes, so it’s worth telling us about.
Steps and steep streets
Mention any steps up to the door and whether the street outside is steep or narrow. If there’s nowhere to park close by, you can ask the council about suspending a parking bay for the day.
What affects the price of your house move?
The number of bedrooms gives us a rough idea, but two three-bedroom houses can be very different moves. The price comes down to what you’re taking, both homes and the journey between them.
Everything that’s coming with you
Think beyond the main rooms. The loft, the garage, the shed and the garden furniture can add a lot to a move, so include them along with a rough count of boxes.
Your new home
The price covers both ends of the move, so tell us about the new place as well: how many floors it has, any steps to the door and how close a van can get.
Where you’re going and when
Let us know your destination and the date you’re aiming for. If you’re moving further afield, tell us roughly when you expect to get the keys, as that decides when delivery can start.
Only taking part of the household? Small Removals Brighton may suit a smaller move better.

Questions about your Brighton house move
How much does a house removal in Brighton cost?
It depends on the size of your home, how much you’re taking, how far you’re going and how easy both houses are to get in and out of. Send us the details and we’ll give you a fixed price for your move.
Can I get a quote before we have a completion date?
Yes. Send us what you know, including a rough date or the week you’re hoping for, and we’ll review it with you. The date will need to be confirmed when you book.
Can Porta arrange a move from Brighton to another part of the UK?
Yes. Porta arranges full house moves from Brighton and Hove to addresses elsewhere in the UK, as well as moves into the city. Tell us about the home you’re moving to as well as the one you’re leaving.
Can I send photos or a video of the house?
Yes, and it helps. A short video walking through each room, or photos of the bigger furniture and the stairs, gives us a much clearer picture than a list.
What if something changes after I get my quote?
Let us know as soon as you can, whether it’s the date, the address or how much is moving. We’ll look at what’s changed and tell you if the price needs updating.
Is Porta a removal company?
Porta is a booking platform. We price your move and book it with a vetted independent moving partner, who carries it out on the day.
