Yes, Smithdown is home for us, and we cover the whole stretch of Smithdown Road and the streets either side across L7 and L15.

That includes Kensington Fields, Picton Road, Lodge Lane and the roads towards Penny Lane and Sefton Park. Most homes here are Victorian terraces, many let as student house shares, with flats above the shops on the main road. Because we are based at Newstead Abbey, 46 Smithdown Rd, we are only a few minutes away from most jobs in the area, which makes short-notice moves and small loads much easier to fit in.

We also cover the neighbourhoods right next door, so a move from Smithdown to Edge Hill or Wavertree is an everyday job for us. Wherever you are, you get the same service and the same clear pricing. To get a price, send us both postcodes, a few photos of what you are taking and your preferred date on WhatsApp. We usually reply within the hour, and we are open Monday to Sunday, 8am to 9pm.

Yes, student moves are a big part of our work around Smithdown Road, from one room in a house share to a whole house moving out at once.

Most of them happen at the start and end of tenancies, when students move between shared houses in L7 and L15 or head home for the summer. Loads are often small, a few boxes, a desk, a bike and maybe a bed frame, and that is fine for us. We carry everything down the stairs, load it carefully and carry it into your new room, and we can take things home to anywhere in the UK.

Our student moves service is set up for exactly this, with prices starting from £50. To keep things simple, pack your things into boxes or bags before we arrive, label anything fragile, and check with your landlord when you can collect keys at the new place. If housemates are moving on the same day, tell us, as one booking can sometimes cover more than one room. Send us both postcodes and a rough list on WhatsApp for a quote.

It can be, because the terraced side streets are narrow and usually full of parked cars, but we know these streets well and plan where to stop before the day.

Tell us the street and house number when you book, so we can work out the closest place to load. If you can, keep a space outside clear on the morning of the move, or ask a neighbour to help. Parking directly on Smithdown Road itself is often harder than on the side streets, so we usually aim for the nearest gap and carry from there. If there are restrictions on your street, let us know.

If you live in a flat above a shop on the main road, tell us the floor and whether the entrance is at the front or round the back. That helps us judge how far we need to carry and how long the job will take. Our flat moves cover these upstairs flats as well as terraces, and we agree a clear price with you before you book.

Our prices start from £50 for smaller jobs, and long distance moves start from £200, with a clear price agreed with you before you book.

The final price depends on how much you are moving, the distance between the two addresses, how easy the access is at each end, and whether you want extras such as packing or furniture taken apart and rebuilt. A single room in a house share or one item from Marketplace will sit near the lower end, while a full terraced house will cost more. Steep stairs, a tight landing or a long carry from where the van can park can add time, so tell us about them up front. There are no hidden extras added on the day.

For small jobs, our single item delivery is usually the cheapest option. If you are moving out of Merseyside, see our long distance removals. To get your price, send us photos and both postcodes on WhatsApp, or fill in the quote form on this page, which opens WhatsApp ready to send.

Yes, moving one room from a house share is one of the most common jobs we do around Smithdown.

A typical room move is a bed, a mattress, a chest of drawers, a desk and some boxes or bags, and it often fits in alongside other work because we are based just down the road. We take apart the bed frame and any flat-pack furniture if it will not fit round the landing, carry everything out carefully and rebuild it in your new room. If you only have boxes and a few bags, that is fine too.

Our moves for students and house sharers start from £50, and if you only have one big piece to shift, our single item service may suit you better. Whether it is a single room, a bed and a few boxes, or the whole house, send us a rough list of what you have and both postcodes on WhatsApp, and we will come back with a clear price before you book.

Yes, we take beds, wardrobes and other furniture apart where they will not fit round a tight landing or through the front door, then rebuild them at the other end.

The Victorian terraces off Smithdown Road often have steep, narrow stairs and a sharp turn at the top, so king-size beds, wardrobes and some sofas will not go down in one piece. We bring the tools to strip them down, wrap the parts and protect corners and banisters as we go. Sofas with removable legs or arms can usually be made smaller, and we will tell you honestly if something really will not fit.

Taking furniture apart and rebuilding it is included in our house moves as standard. If an item is not worth moving, our furniture removal service can take it away instead, as long as it is furniture or household items rather than general waste. Send us photos of the larger pieces and your staircase on WhatsApp, and we will agree a clear price before you book.

Book as early as you can, because end of tenancy dates around Smithdown tend to fall at the same time and the busiest days fill up first.

We recommend booking at least two days ahead for any move, and short notice is often possible because we are based just down the road on Smithdown Road. Even so, the end of the academic year and the weeks before a new one starts are when most house shares change over, so if you know your date, tell us as soon as you can. Moving a day or two before the rush can make things easier for everyone.

To book, send us both postcodes, your date, how many rooms are moving and a few photos on WhatsApp, or call 0151 272 3467. We will agree a clear price before anything is confirmed. If you are not sure of your new address yet, you can still get in touch to hold a date. We usually reply within the hour, and we are open Monday to Sunday, 8am to 9pm.

Yes, we collect Marketplace buys from anywhere within around 100 miles of Liverpool and carry them into your room, not just to the front door.

Send us the collection postcode, your postcode and a photo or link to the item, along with the time the seller is free. Sofas, desks, wardrobes, beds, mattresses and fridges are all typical jobs. Before you pay, check the measurements against your front door, hallway and the bend in the stairs, and ask the seller if the item can be taken apart, because many house shares off Smithdown Road have narrow stairs and tight landings.

Our Marketplace collections start from £50, and because we are based on Smithdown Road, local pickups and drop-offs are quick to arrange. We usually reply within the hour, which helps when a seller wants the item gone quickly. If you share the house, let your housemates know we are coming so the hallway is clear when we arrive.

Yes, we are open Monday to Sunday, 8am to 9pm, so evening and weekend moves are fine.

That helps if you are working or have lectures during the day, or if your new landlord can only hand over keys later on. Weekends are popular for house share moves and Marketplace collections, so it is worth booking those a little earlier if you can. Evening slots suit smaller jobs well, such as a single room, a sofa or a few boxes, and because we are based on Smithdown Road, we can often fit them in at short notice.

To check a time, send us your postcodes, your preferred day and a few photos on WhatsApp, or call 0151 272 3467. We usually reply within the hour and will agree a clear price before you book. You can also contact us to ask about a specific slot. If you are moving out of a flat above a shop on the main road, our flat moves page explains how those jobs work.

Yes, your belongings are fully insured while they are in our care, from loading at your old place to unloading at the new one.

We also work to stop damage happening in the first place. Furniture is wrapped before it goes in the van, beds and wardrobes are taken apart where they would otherwise scrape round tight terrace stairs, and everything is loaded and secured carefully for the journey. With more than 300 moves done, many of them in the streets around our base, we know the narrow hallways and steep stairs of Smithdown well.

To help us, pack fragile items well, label boxes clearly and tell us about anything valuable or delicate when you ask for a quote. You are welcome to be there while we load so you can point out anything that needs extra care. Our terms and conditions set out how cover works and what to do if anything goes wrong. You can see the full range of what we do on our services page, then send us photos on WhatsApp for a price.
