“I recently used AFS Removals for my move from Hampstead (NW3) to Maida Vale (W9), and I could not be happier with the service provided. Johnny and the rest of the team made our moving day smooth and stress-free.”

“We could not recommend AFS Removals highly enough. Their professionalism, organisation, and attention to detail throughout the entire moving process were exceptional. Every member of the team was friendly, reliable, and committed.”
Pricing
Prices you can check before you call
Moves are charged by the hour for the vehicle and crew, plus a per-mile rate. Stairs, dismantling and packing each have their own published price.
Hourly, from
£55
Small Transit (SWB), driver only · 2-hour minimum
Stairs, per flight
£10
Per person on the crew, per hour at that address. A floor is 2 flights; the ground floor, or a working lift, is free.
Dismantling, from
£50
A single or double bed, dismantling only. Every item is priced, up to a six-door wardrobe, with a £90 minimum booking.
A worked example
Our smallest job — the Small Transit (SWB), driver only, for 2 hours at £55 an hour, plus 10 miles at £1.20 a mile — comes to £122, with Goods in Transit and Public Liability cover already in it. Larger vehicles and crews are priced the same way.
An illustration from the published rates, not a quote. Stairs, dismantling and materials are added where needed.
Why AFS
What you can hold us to
The things customers worry about most before a move, and exactly how we handle each one.
Our own people, from the first box to the last
Employed, never subcontracted
Every mover on your job works for AFS. We never sell your date and pass it to someone else.
The same crew at both ends
The team that loads the van travels with it and unloads it. Nothing changes hands mid-move.
Your home protected first
Floors and doorways are covered and furniture is blanket-wrapped before anything is lifted.
Our fleet
The right vehicle for the load
From a small van for a few items to a 7.5-tonne lorry for a family home. Volume matters more than bedrooms, so count the loft, shed and garden too.

How your move works
Five steps, one coordinator, and a plan agreed before the van arrives.
Step 1
Tell us about your move
Use the quote form, call or WhatsApp. Add photos if it helps — the more we know, the more accurate the price.
Step 2
Get your written quote
An itemised quote within 24 hours, built from our published rates: vehicle, crew, hours and extras, line by line.
Step 3
Your coordinator takes over
Once you book, one named coordinator confirms the date, vehicle and crew, and stays your contact until the last box is in.
Step 4
Packed and loaded
Floors and doorways protected, furniture dismantled and blanket-wrapped, and the van loaded in the order you want it unloaded.
Step 5
Unloaded and rebuilt
Boxes go to the rooms you labelled, beds go back together, and the crew stays until you have walked the house.

Europe
Moving to or from Europe
Moves in both directions between the UK and 12 European countries, with our own crew packing and loading your home.
Spain
The busiest route out of the UK for household moves, and the one with the most part-load traffic in both directions.
France
Short crossing, long country. Moves run in both directions, from Calais-adjacent to the far south.
Germany
Household and part-load moves between the UK and Germany, including returns to the UK.
Ireland
Moves between the UK and Ireland, with the ferry crossing built into the plan rather than bolted on.
Portugal
Full household moves to Portugal, and smaller consignments where a whole vehicle would be overkill.
