Yes, we cover the whole of Old Swan in L13, from the shops on Prescot Road and St Oswald’s Street to the side streets off Queens Drive.

That includes Derby Lane, the rows of Victorian terraces behind the main roads, and the inter-war semis further out towards Stoneycroft and Knotty Ash. We also cover the areas right next door, so moves between Old Swan and Tuebrook, Broadgreen, Fairfield or Wavertree are a normal job for us, whether you are moving one street over or across the city.

Old Swan is a short drive from our base on Smithdown Road, straight out along Edge Lane. If you are not sure whether your street is covered, send both postcodes on WhatsApp at 07552 999 177 or call 0151 272 3467. We are open Monday to Sunday, 8am to 9pm, and usually reply within the hour, with a clear price agreed before you book.

Yes, we move both terraces and semis in Old Swan, and we plan each one a little differently.

Old Swan has a mix of Victorian terraces behind the main roads and inter-war semis further out towards Queens Drive and Knotty Ash. Terraces often mean narrow stairs, tight hallways and on-street parking, so we take beds and wardrobes apart where needed and plan where to stop the van. Semis usually have more rooms and more furniture to shift, so they need a fuller van and a bit more time, especially if there is a loft or a shed to clear.

Tell us the size of your home and how many bedrooms there are when you ask for a quote, and send photos of the larger pieces. Full and partial packing is available if you want help with the boxes. Our house moves page explains how we plan the day, and if you are in a flat above the shops, see how our flat moves work.

Yes, we move people from Old Swan to anywhere in the UK, as well as to other parts of Liverpool and Merseyside.

Long distance moves start from £200, and the price depends on how much you are taking and how far you are going. We load everything in Old Swan and drive it straight to your new address, so your things stay with us the whole way. Your belongings are fully insured while they are in our care, furniture is taken apart and rebuilt at the other end where needed, and packing is available if you would like help with it.

Let us know where you are heading on WhatsApp, along with photos of what you are taking, and we will give you a clear price for the full trip, usually within the hour. For longer moves, booking at least two days ahead is a good idea, as it gives us time to plan the route and the day. Our long distance removals page has more on how these moves work.

Prices start from £50 for small jobs in Old Swan, and long distance moves start from £200.

The final price depends on how much you are moving, how far you are going, whether there are narrow stairs or tight spots, and whether you want us to pack or take furniture apart. A single sofa going to Tuebrook costs far less than a full three-bedroom semi with a loft to empty. On-street parking on terraced roads can mean a slightly longer carry, which we factor in when we price the job.

We do not guess. Send us photos of what you are moving and both postcodes on WhatsApp at 07552 999 177, and we will agree a clear price with you before you book, so there are no surprises on the day. The quote form on this page opens WhatsApp with your details filled in, and we usually reply within the hour. If it is just one item, our single item delivery service is usually the best fit.

Most terraced streets in Old Swan have on-street parking only, so we plan where to stop before the day to keep the carry as short as possible.

Prescot Road and the area around St Oswald’s Street can be busy, especially near the shops, so the side streets are usually easier for loading. Knowing your exact street lets us work out the closest place to stop and how long the carry from the van to your door will be. If you can, it helps to ask a neighbour to keep a space free outside your house on the morning of the move, or to park your own car outside the night before and move it when we arrive.

Tell us your street when you ask for a quote, along with anything that could affect the carry, such as steps up to the door or a narrow front path. It is worth checking parking at your new address too. Send both postcodes and a few photos on WhatsApp, and we will come back with a clear price, usually within the hour. You can also reach us through our contact page.

Yes, in most cases, because we take furniture apart where it will not fit through a door or up the stairs, and rebuild it at the other end.

Victorian terraces in Old Swan often have narrow staircases with a tight turn at the top, and small hallways that leave little room to angle a sofa. Beds, wardrobes and tables usually come apart, and many sofas have feet or arms that can be removed, which can make the difference. We keep all the fixings together so everything goes back the same way. If something truly will not fit, we will talk it through with you before the day rather than on it.

Let us know about any tight spots when you ask for a quote, and send photos of the sofa and the stairs if you can. Measurements of the hallway and the sofa help too. That way we can allow the right time and avoid surprises. You can read more about how we handle large or awkward pieces on our furniture removal page.

Yes, we collect Marketplace buys and other second-hand furniture and bring them into your home in Old Swan.

Send us the collection postcode, a photo or link to the item and your Old Swan postcode, and we will give you a price. We collect from anywhere within around 100 miles of Liverpool, so you are not limited to sellers nearby. Before you agree a time with the seller, check the size of the item, whether it comes apart and whether the seller will help bring it out, as that all affects how we plan the collection.

On the day we pick it up, load it carefully and carry it into the room you want it in. If it is a large piece like a wardrobe or bed frame and you live in a terrace with narrow stairs, we can take it apart and rebuild it in your home. Our Marketplace collections page explains how it works, and we usually reply to WhatsApp quotes within the hour.

Yes, we offer full and partial packing for Old Swan moves.

With full packing, we box up the whole house for you. With partial packing, we just do the rooms you have not got round to, such as the kitchen, the spare room or the loft. Kitchens usually take the longest because of plates, glasses and pans, so it is often the room people ask us to handle while they do the rest themselves. Boxes are labelled by room so they go straight to the right place at your new home.

If you are packing yourself, start with the rooms you use least, keep heavy items like books in smaller boxes, and set aside a bag with the things you will need on the first night. Let us know what you would like us to pack when you ask for a quote, as it affects the time and the price. Packing can be added to any move, including our student moves, and you can see what else we do on our services page.

We recommend booking an Old Swan move at least two days ahead, but short notice is often possible.

Weekends and the end of the month tend to go first, because that is when a lot of tenancies end and house sales complete. If you already know your date, getting in touch early gives you the best choice of times, especially for a larger semi. If your plans change at the last minute, still message us, as we can often fit in a move at short notice, particularly smaller jobs like a single item or a Marketplace collection.

We are open Monday to Sunday, 8am to 9pm, and usually reply within the hour. The quickest way to book is to send photos of what you are moving and both postcodes on WhatsApp at 07552 999 177, or use the quote form on this page, which opens WhatsApp with your details filled in. Once we have agreed a clear price, we fix the date and time with you. If you are moving close by, we also cover Tuebrook and the roads around it.

Yes, your belongings are fully insured while they are in our care during an Old Swan move.

Cover runs from loading at your old home to unloading at the new one, whether you are moving across L13, to a nearby area or to the other end of the country. We also wrap furniture, take apart pieces that will not fit through doors or up narrow stairs, and load the van carefully, because the best outcome is that nothing gets damaged in the first place. With tight terraced hallways, that care matters even more.

To help on the day, pack fragile items well, label boxes by room and keep valuables like jewellery, documents and laptops with you. If you would rather not pack yourself, full and partial packing is available. You can read what is covered in our terms and conditions, or call us on 0151 272 3467 if you have any questions about insurance before you book.
