Our Step‑by‑Step Packing and Moving Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact Movers Earls Court by phone or online. We ask a few questions about your property, volume of items, dates and any special requirements. Based on this, we provide a clear, written quotation outlining the packing service, materials included and any optional extras.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For anything more than a very small move, we arrange a survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit in Earls Court. We assess access, parking, quantity of belongings and identify fragile or high‑value items. This allows us to plan the right number of trained staff, the correct materials and realistic timings.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the agreed day, our professional packers arrive with all necessary boxes and materials. We start with fragile and non‑essential items, working systematically room by room. Everything is wrapped, cushioned and placed in appropriately sized boxes, then sealed and clearly labelled by room and contents. Furniture is protected with covers and blankets; where needed we can dismantle items ready for loading.
4. Loading & Transport
Once packing is complete, our removals crew loads your boxed and wrapped items onto our vehicles. Boxes are stacked securely, with heavier items at the bottom and fragile items protected. All transport is covered by our goods in transit insurance, giving added peace of mind while your belongings travel from Earls Court to your new address.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination we unload, place boxes in the correct rooms according to the labels and reassemble any furniture we dismantled, if this service has been included. We can also unpack on request, remove used boxes and materials, and leave your new property as tidy as possible so you can settle in more quickly.
Transparent, Fair Pricing
Our pricing for Packing and Boxes in Earls Court is based on:
- Volume of items to be packed
- Level of service – full house pack, part‑pack or fragile‑only
- Number of packers required and time on site
- Type and amount of packing materials used
You receive a detailed written quote with all known costs listed. Materials, labour and travel are clearly broken down so you know exactly what you are paying for. There are no hidden charges for stairs or standard access in typical Earls Court properties; any potential extras are discussed and agreed before work starts.
Why Choose Professional Packing Over DIY or Casual Man‑and‑Van
While packing yourself or using a casual man‑and‑van can appear cheaper, it often leads to damaged items, delays and stress. Our trained packers use proper methods to protect fragile goods, awkward items and valuables. Boxes are filled to the right weight, properly cushioned and labelled, which speeds up both loading and unloading.
A casual man‑and‑van service rarely includes goods in transit insurance, adequate materials, or enough manpower for a safe, efficient move. With Movers Earls Court you benefit from a fully insured, coordinated team working to recognised industry standards, reducing risk and saving time overall.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Movers Earls Court operates with robust insurance and quality procedures:
- Goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are being transported
- Public liability cover for work in and around your property
- Trained moving teams with hands‑on experience of complex Earls Court moves
- Documented job sheets and inventories for larger or more complex moves
We follow sensible, proven working practices: correct lifting techniques, appropriate use of equipment, and careful route planning. Our aim is to complete each job safely, efficiently and with as little disruption to you as possible.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Protecting your belongings and the properties we work in is central to our service. We use floor protection, corner guards and furniture blankets where required. Delicate items are wrapped individually, and we avoid over‑packing boxes to prevent crushing.
We also take a responsible approach to materials and waste. Wherever possible we reuse strong cartons, collect back boxes after the move for recycling, and select recyclable or reusable materials. If you prefer to pack yourself, we can supply quality boxes and advice so you can pack in a way that is both safe and environmentally considerate.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does your packing and boxes service in Earls Court cost?
Costs vary according to property size, the volume of items and the level of service you choose. A full professional pack for a typical one‑ or two‑bed flat in Earls Court will usually be charged as a fixed price, including labour and standard materials. Larger homes or offices are priced after a survey so we can accurately assess time and materials. We always provide a written quotation in advance, with packing, boxes and any optional services clearly itemised so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Can you offer same‑day or urgent packing?
Where our schedule allows, we can usually help with short‑notice or urgent packing in Earls Court. Same‑day service depends on crew and vehicle availability, as well as the size of the job and access conditions. If you need urgent assistance, contact us as early in the day as possible with details of your property and deadline. We will outline what is realistically achievable, provide an immediate estimate, and prioritise essential areas such as fragile items and key rooms to make your move safe and manageable.
Are my belongings insured while being packed and moved?
Yes. While your items are being transported by Movers Earls Court, they are covered by our goods in transit insurance, subject to our terms and conditions. We also hold public liability cover for work in and around your property. Our team takes great care in packing to minimise the risk of damage in the first place, using appropriate protection and handling techniques. During the quotation or survey stage we will explain the insurance cover in plain language and highlight any exclusions, so you know exactly how your belongings are protected.
What is included in your packing and boxes service?
Our service typically includes the supply of quality packing materials, all labour for packing and sealing boxes, protection of furniture, and clear labelling of each carton by room and contents. We can also dismantle and protect certain items of furniture where required. At your new address, we will place boxes in the correct rooms and reassemble any agreed items. Optional extras include full unpacking and the removal of used materials. Every quote details what is included so there is no ambiguity about the service you will receive.
How is your service different from a basic man‑and‑van?
A basic man‑and‑van typically provides transport and some lifting, but rarely offers systematic packing, quality materials, or formal insurance. At Movers Earls Court you get trained moving teams who understand how to protect fragile and high‑value items, plan access, and manage the entire process from packing to placement. We bring the right number of people, supply proper cartons and protective materials, and work to agreed timeframes. This reduces the risk of breakages, delays and unexpected costs that often occur with informal or purely transport‑focused services.
How far in advance should I book packing and boxes in Earls Court?
For the best choice of dates, we recommend booking at least two to three weeks before your move, especially if you are moving at month‑end or on a Friday. This allows time for a survey, confirmation of access and ordering any specialist materials. However, we understand that completion dates and tenancy agreements can change at short notice. If your timescales are tight, contact us as soon as you have a likely date and we will do our best to accommodate you, outlining the options and any flexibility we may have.
