What customers near Pontefract say

May 2024

The process to get a quote was easy. The mover we had was fantastic!! He arrived on time with lots of helpful stuff for the move, for example, blankets and foam padding to protect things during the move.

Driver was on time a friendly, moved all of my items carefully and ensured my move went smoothly.

OliverHeadingley LS6 · 1 man, medium van, 2 hrs
Jul 2023

Because Taha was very helpful and treated our equipment with care and made sure it was properly supported and strapped in to the van. He was on time and spoke to me before the job to check he had the right van and equipment with him. I would definitely use him and his team again.

What our Pontefract Town Centre WF8 crews plan for

What to plan for on moving day in Pontefract town centre, based on our 6 local jobs.

Market days and loading

Market Place and the streets around it are busy on market days, with limited space for a van. Pick a quieter day and tell us the nearest place we can stop and load.

Stairs and lifts

None of our 6 town centre jobs had stairs at one end. Flats above shops can still be on upper floors, so tell us the floor and measure stairwells if you have large items.

Best days to book

Across the UK, Saturday is our busiest day (25% of jobs) and Tuesday the quietest (10%). Pontefract Town Centre is quieter midweek, which helps with parking close to your door.

Terraced streets and permits

Terraced streets near the centre often have parking on one side only. Ask neighbours to leave space outside your address, and let us know if your street has any restrictions or one-way sections.
