Diary of a London Mover

Although our Movers spend most days moving customers in and around London, we do get requests from London dwellers who have decided to move on further afield so this post is all about long distance moves from London to basically anywhere outside the M25 and beyond. Or in other words, moving long distance from London (but still within the...

With no ease up in the spiralling cost of living it's no wonder people are being forced into ever more cramped spaces, especially in a sought-after location such as London, where rental prices are going through the roof and demand is...

We've all been there, that uncomfortable moment when you're not quite sure whether you're supposed to roll your sleeves up and get stuck in, or somehow blend in with the background like no one can see you (yes, they can) and pretend you're being busy.

On moving day this can not only be awkward, but sometimes even lead to unfortunate...
