Planning a full house move? Our House Removals service is designed for complete household moves that need a custom quote.
A practical service for a smaller move
Moving from a flat, one room or part of a home
Our Small Removals service works well for a studio or one-bedroom flat, the contents of one room, or several pieces of furniture and appliances from part of a home. Bags and boxes can be included in the same move.
Book through Porta and we will connect you with a vetted independent driver. The price is based on both addresses, what needs moving, access at the properties, your collection option and whether you choose one or two people.
For more examples of what you can move and a closer look at the online quote, see our national Small Removals service page.
Furniture, appliances, bags and boxes
What can you move with our Reading Small Removals service?
You can move different types of household belongings together, from furniture and appliances to clothes, bags and packed boxes.
Move from a studio or one-bedroom flat
Take the sofa, bed, table, appliances, clothes and packed boxes when moving out of a smaller home.
Move out of a rented room
Include a desk, chair, television, shelving or bedroom furniture as well as your bags and boxes when changing rooms or shared homes.
Move selected items from home
Arrange collection of a washing machine, drawers, armchair and several boxes while the rest of the household stays where it is.
Getting ready for moving day
Help everything go smoothly at the property
Flats and shared entrances
Tell us which floor the flat is on and whether there is a usable lift. Put entry codes, booked lift times, tight turns or a longer walk from the entrance in the notes section of the quote form.
Parking and red routes
Check where the driver can stop close to each address. Double-red lines do not allow loading, so a nearby bay or an approved dispensation may be needed for an affected Reading property.
Reading Borough Council says double-red lines prohibit stopping, including loading, and asks for at least six working days to process a dispensation. Check its current red-route guidance.

Questions about moving locally
Small Removals in Reading: common questions
How much do small removals in Reading cost?
The price depends on the collection and delivery addresses, what needs moving, access at both properties, your collection option and whether you choose one- or two-person help. You can see the fixed price online before booking.
Can I book flat movers in Reading through Porta?
Yes. Small Removals can cover a studio or one-bedroom flat when the booking includes all the furniture, appliances, bags and boxes that are going. Add the floor, lift and access details in the quote form too.
Is Small Removals right for my move?
The service can suit one furnished room, a studio or one-bedroom flat, or several household items moving together. For the contents of a complete multi-room home, use the House Removals service instead.
Can a driver load on a red route in Reading?
Not on double-red lines. Reading Borough Council says they prohibit stopping, including loading and unloading. Check for a suitable nearby bay and follow the council’s current guidance if a dispensation may be required.
Can my Reading move finish elsewhere in the UK?
Yes. You can book a move from Reading to another town or city, or arrange a collection elsewhere in the UK for delivery to Reading. Add both full addresses when getting your quote.
When might I need a two-person team?
Choose two people when something cannot be carried safely by one person, or when stairs, difficult access or a longer walk to the vehicle make the move more demanding.
