Student Removal Services
A student move is often smaller than a full house removal, but it still involves carrying, loading, and transporting belongings safely. Our student removal service covers the main stages of the move, including loading, transportation, unloading, and carrying belongings into your new room or flat.
The right van and number of movers can be arranged based on the amount of belongings and the requirements of the move. Additional services such as help with storage over the summer may also be available when required.
What Does a Student Move Include?
A typical student removal can include:
Boxes and Bags
Collection and transportation of packed boxes, suitcases, and bags.
Small Furniture Items
Moving desks, chairs, small tables, shelving units, and other compact furniture.
Beds and Mattresses
Transportation of single beds, mattresses, and bedding where required.
Kitchen Items and Appliances
Moving kitchen boxes, small appliances, and shared kitchen belongings.
Books and Study Materials
Transportation of books, files, and study equipment.
Clothes and Bedding
Moving clothes, bedding, towels, and personal belongings.
Bikes and Sports Equipment
Transportation of bicycles and sports equipment where suitable.
Halls and Shared Houses
Collection and delivery at student halls, flats, and shared houses across London.
Storage Over the Summer
Transportation of belongings to a storage facility between terms, and collection from storage when you return.
The exact service depends on your moving requirements. Providing details about both addresses and the amount of belongings helps the team plan the move and recommend the right level of support.
Moving Between Halls and Flats
Student accommodation can involve different challenges depending on the building. Shared entrances, security doors, lifts, staircases, corridors, and restricted parking can all affect how the move is carried out.
Before moving day, provide the collection and delivery postcodes along with details about the buildings. Information about stairs, lifts, parking, access, and larger items can help the moving team prepare properly.
For moves between halls and flats, it is also worth checking whether your accommodation requires advance notice, specific moving times, or lift bookings. Mention any building rules when requesting your quote.
End-of-Term and Summer Storage
At the end of term, many students need to move belongings out of halls or flats and store them until the next term. A removal service can transport boxes and furniture to a storage facility and collect them again when you return.
This can be useful when:
- Moving out of halls at the end of term
- Travelling home for the summer
- Changing flats with a gap between tenancies
- Studying abroad for a term
- Moving between university accommodation and a private flat
Let the team know whether belongings are going into storage, and provide the storage facility details and any access requirements when booking.
Packing for a Student Move
Good packing can make a student move much easier. Start by packing non-essential belongings early and work through your room a few items at a time.
Before the removal team arrives:
- Pack and label your boxes
- Separate essential items that you will need immediately
- Keep important documents and valuables with you
- Disassemble small furniture where appropriate
- Clear walkways and entrances
- Check doors, stairs, and lifts for larger items
- Tell the team about heavy or fragile items
- Confirm building access and moving times
Having your room ready for loading can help the removal team work more efficiently and reduce unnecessary delays.
Student Removal Costs
The cost of a student removal in London depends on the size and requirements of your move. There is no single price that applies to every student move because each job involves different amounts of belongings, distances, access conditions, and moving times.
The main factors that can affect the cost include:
- Number of boxes and bags
- Amount of furniture
- Van size required
- Number of movers
- Distance between addresses
- Loading and unloading time
- Stairs and difficult access
- Parking requirements
- Storage or additional services
- Moving date and availability
For a more accurate quote, provide your collection and delivery postcodes, an approximate list of belongings, access information, and preferred moving date.
