London removals, priced in writing before you book
We move homes and offices across London, from a single room to a full house. We survey the removals job before we quote, and the quote comes in writing, so the number you accept is the number you plan around.
16 services
The move, the clean and the clearance from one company.
Every London postcode
North, south, east and west, from a base in E18.
A survey on every job
Nothing is quoted before someone has actually looked at it.
Open at any hour
Answered day or night, with no voicemail or callback queue. Crews work nights as well.

The process
Three steps, and you know the price before the van is booked
It is easier to describe the result than the method. This is the method, so you can hold any removals firm to it, including us.
- 01
The survey
The questions that decide the price get asked first, not on the day. Which floor, whether there is a lift, how far the van can park from the door, and what is actually going. A survey can be a video call.
- 02
The written quote
You get the price in writing, with what is included and what is not, so both sides are looking at the same list. Anything you add before you accept is priced in the quote.
- 03
Moving day
The crew walks the route before anything is lifted. The load is built and strapped in sections rather than strapped once at the end, and both properties get a final walk round before anyone leaves.
After the van has gone
The last box goes down, and nothing on the invoice is a surprise
You agreed a written figure before anything was lifted. If something changes on the day — a lift out of service, or a van that cannot get within fifty metres of the door — you hear what it costs before the work happens, not on the bill afterwards.

What we do
16 services, so you are not booking three different firms
The move, the clean and the clearance are one company and one number. Grouped by the kind of job, because a student move and an office move are not the same conversation even when they use the same van.

Describe the job and we will tell you which service it is, or quote it as a one-off if it does not fit any of them. Every London postcode, and the survey can be a video call.

Where we work
Removals routes across London we quote for
Prices follow a survey. We do not publish a headline figure, because the cost turns on access, floor, parking distance and volume, and a number quoted before those are known is a guess.
What people say
Reviews left by people we have moved
Left on our Google profile. Every card links back to it, so you can read the rest — including any we would rather you did not.
Good experience with Metro City Moves. 4 bedroom house seemed bit difficult to move from London to Liverpool, but they planned well and successfully executed. Thank you.

Why us
Six things we can actually show you
Not adjectives. Every line below is either how the job is actually run or something you can hold us to.
A survey on every job
Every one, on a video call or in person, before a price is given. Which floor, whether there is a lift, how far the van can park. Nothing is quoted off a guess.
The price in writing
What is included and what is not, as a list. Both sides read the same one, and anything you add before you accept is priced into it.
Every London postcode
North, south, east and west — from E and NW to BR, KT, RM and TW. Put your postcode in and the form will tell you straight away.
You can tell what you are booking
Each of the 16 services has a page describing what it actually involves, so you know what you are asking for before you call. Not a list of words.
The route is walked first
Before anything is lifted, the crew walks it — door widths, the turn on the stairs, where the van can sit. The load is then built and strapped in sections, not once at the end.
We say when we cannot help
Put a postcode outside our area into the form and it tells you so, and gives you a number, instead of taking a booking we would have to hand back.

What you get before you commit
- A survey first, by video call or in person, so the price is built on what is actually there.
- The quote in writing, listing what is included and what is not, so both sides read the same list.
- Anything you add before you accept is priced into the quote you sign off.
