Two people on every job Shipley, West Yorkshire, England

Local area: the local price

  • Shipley

    Where the vans are kept. Most jobs here start within ten minutes of leaving.

  • Saltaire

    Tight terraced streets, so we often bring the smaller van and carry from the corner.

  • Baildon

    Steep drives and stepped paths are part of the job, and the price stays the same.

  • Bingley

    Flats by the canal, family houses up the hill, and plenty of garage clearances.

  • Cottingley

    Sofa and wardrobe pick ups, often paired with a run into Bingley the same day.

  • Idle and Thackley

    Back to backs and newer estates; tell us about any shared stairwell when you ask.

  • Frizinghall

    Student lets and flat conversions, close enough for a same day single item.

  • Bradford city centre

    Inside the Clean Air Zone. We tell you about loading bays when we reply.

Wider area: the wider area price

  • Leeds

    Headingley, Hyde Park and Kirkstall house shares make up most of our Leeds work.

  • Horsforth and Guiseley

    A short run along the A65 from Shipley for room moves and pick ups.

  • Otley and Ilkley

    Furniture from sellers and shops in Wharfedale, brought back over the moor road.

  • Keighley

    Up the Aire valley, a regular trip for half loads and furniture pick ups.

  • Halifax

    Our furthest regular area. Ask about anywhere past it and we will say if we can help.

Not on the list? Ask anyway. If it is a reasonable drive you get the whole figure before you decide. Ask with both places

Why us

Small jobs, done like they matter.

Most of our work is one room, one piece or one garage at a time. Each one is handled as carefully as a full flat.

  • Two people on every job

    Nobody waits for you to lift half a sofa, and nobody drags it.

  • The price is the whole price

    Fuel, stairs and VAT are in it before you see it. It changes only for waiting past the load’s time (£9 each 15 minutes), more than you described (only if you agree) or a wasted trip (£25 local, £35 wider area).

  • Two vans, picked for the street

    A box van with a tail lift for most jobs and a smaller van for cobbles and tight terraces.

  • Blankets on everything

    A blanket goes round every chair, table and wardrobe, and straps hold it still, even the cheap ones.

FAQs

Questions about where we go.

The phone, 07700 900614, is answered in working hours, and the request has a note box for anything these answers miss.

Which price applies if one end is local and the other is not?

The wider area price. Both addresses have to be in the local area for the local price.

Do you go further than Halifax or Leeds?

Sometimes, for a single piece or a full van. Ask with both places and we will say whether we can, with the full price, before anything is arranged.

Can you stop outside a flat in Bradford city centre?

Often only in a loading bay or for a short while. Give us the street when you ask and we will plan where the van waits.

Do you add a Clean Air Zone charge in Bradford?

No. Bradford’s Clean Air Zone is class C, which charges vans that do not meet Euro 6 for diesel (GOV.UK, England). Both vans are Euro 6 diesels, so the zone does not charge them and nothing is added to your price.
