Kaivan and his team were fantastic! They were able to book me in fairly last minute for a long distance house move. They arrived promptly on the day, were very hard working, polite and professional. I would highly recommend them all. Thank you guys

Very professional, prompt and patient. I set everything up the afternoon before the move, which was in the morning, and received a fair price.

Moving in Portsmouth City Centre PO1

What our Portsmouth City Centre PO1 crews plan for

What to plan for when moving in or out of PO1, based on our 5 local jobs.

Student flats and term dates

The University of Portsmouth has a large presence in PO1, so shared houses and flats change hands around term starts and ends. Book early at those times and agree a key handover slot before the van arrives.

Stairs and lifts in PO1

2 of our 5 jobs here had stairs at one end. Central blocks vary: some have lifts, others are walk-ups above shops. Give us the floor number, lift size and any narrow landings so we can plan the carry.

Loading near Commercial Road

Commercial Road and the streets around it are busy with buses, taxis and delivery vans. Pick a time outside the school run and rush hour, and have items packed and by the door so loading is quick.

Best days to book

Across the UK, Saturday is our busiest day (25% of jobs) and Tuesday the quietest (10%). In a city centre with tight parking, a Tuesday morning slot usually means easier access for the van.

Harbour blocks and loading bays

Flats near Gunwharf Quays and the waterfront often have managed parking, barriers or loading bays that need booking. Check with your managing agent first, and tell us if the van cannot get close to the entrance.
