A moving service for smaller homes
Manchester flat removals and smaller household moves
Small Removals is suited to the contents of a studio, apartment or one-bedroom flat, a room in shared accommodation, or a lighter move from a larger home. Your booking can include furniture, appliances and all the clothes, kitchenware, books, bags and boxes moving with them.
For Manchester flat moves and apartment removals, one booking can cover the furniture and every packed belonging changing address. The fixed price is shown online and, once your booking is confirmed, Porta connects you with a vetted independent driver.
For the full list of suitable loads and a closer look at the booking journey, see our national Small Removals service page.

Apartment blocks and busy streets
Lifts, loading bays and building access
Shared entrances, lifts and reception desks
Tell Porta about entry systems, lift bookings, upper floors, narrow corridors and any building rules in the quote-form notes. Include measurements where furniture has a tight route.
A legal place to load
Check the restrictions outside both addresses. A controlled bay or yellow-line location may need council permission, particularly where loading will take longer than the ordinary allowance.
Manchester City Council accepts domestic removals as a reason to suspend an on-street pay-and-display bay and currently requires at least five working days of notice. Check its latest parking suspension and dispensation guidance.
