How it works

  1. 1

    Describe the job

    A sentence or two and a photo if you like. It takes a minute and costs nothing.

  2. 2

    Compare bids

    Verified local removal companies send a price, a message and when they can come. Chat before you choose.

  3. 3

    Book and pay safely

    Pay through HelloPros when you book. The pro is paid once you confirm the job is done.

What to check before hiring

  • Goods-in-transit insurance and ID
  • Whether the price is per hour and what the minimum is
  • Access rules at halls: delivery windows and parking

What we check: Every removal company has shown photo ID and public liability insurance of at least £1m. The profile also shows Goods in transit insurance when the pro has it.

Student moves: questions people ask

Can two of us share one van?

Yes, if the pro agrees and the van has room. Post one job that lists both addresses and the pro will quote for the round trip.

Do I need to be there?

Someone needs to let the pro in at each end. A parent, flatmate or warden can do it if you tell the pro in advance.

Is a small move cheaper than a house move?

Usually, because it takes less time and a smaller van. Bids on HelloPros are from local pros, so you compare real prices for your move.

What about halls with delivery windows?

Tell the pro the arrival window the halls allow and any permit or barcode needed to get in. It avoids waiting time.
