Prices

What packing & unpacking in Haringey costs

Our rates are the same in Haringey as everywhere else we work, and they are never changed by postcode.

We pack the whole home, or just the things you would rather not pack yourself. The crew brings the boxes, wrap and wardrobe cartons, and a packing package covers labour and materials in one published price.

Full packing, or just the fragile things

Full packing covers the whole property. Fragile-only covers glass, china, artwork, mirrors and anything else you would rather have wrapped by someone who does it every day, while you handle the books and the bedding.

Packing packages by property size

  • For a whole property, packing is priced as a package by bedroom count, with labour and materials in one figure. The move itself is quoted separately from the hourly rate card, so you can see exactly what each part costs.

The service

Packing & Unpacking with AFS

Packing is where a move is won or lost. Boxes packed room by room and labelled to the room they are going to turn unloading from a guessing game into a directed job.

Packing packages run from one to seven bedrooms, each with a set allowance of boxes, tape, bubble wrap and cartons. Anything beyond the allowance is itemised in your quote before the day.

Council rules

What the council says about moving day in Haringey

Published by the authorities themselves, with a link to each. Rules and fees change, so check the source before you rely on them.

  1. Reserving space outside the property: Haringey Council

    Haringey takes bay suspension applications online, through an account, and asks for 2 weeks' notice. It charges a £280 administration fee plus £80 per space per day. Haringey does not suspend red routes; those requests go to TfL. Its page does not say whether a house move qualifies, so confirm that with the council. With AFS, you apply for and pay for any suspension yourself, then send us the booking reference and bay location so we can plan the van around it.

“Booking was straightforward and AFS confirmed a few days before. The team turned up on time and were friendly and efficient. They packed up, drove to the delivery address and unpacked again, all with no drama or fuss.”
Siobhan Harper-NunesVerified Google review
“Thoughtful, professional & hard working. They did not stop! I had 3 offices to clear & 3 hours to do it in. I was having a meltdown and they were patient and accommodating. Job done. Happy move.”

Questions

Packing & Unpacking in Haringey: common questions

Do you cover all of Haringey?
Yes. We cover all of Haringey, across the N22, N8 and N17 postcode districts, including Woodside, Noel Park, Harringay and Bounds Green. A move from Haringey to Wood Green or to the other end of the UK is priced from the same rate card.
What are your prices for packing & unpacking in Haringey?
The same as everywhere we work: our rates never change by postcode. For 2-bedroom home, the commonest size of home in Haringey, the labour guide is £600; the prices section above shows every size, and your itemised written quote arrives within 24 hours.
Do I need to arrange parking for moving day in Haringey?
Haringey takes bay suspension applications online, through an account, and asks for 2 weeks' notice. You apply for and pay for any suspension yourself, and tell us the bay when you book; the council's fees and link are in the council rules section.
Will boxes be labelled for the right room?
Yes. Boxes are labelled for the room they are going to at the new address, which is what makes unloading a directed job rather than a guessing game.
Can I book packing for the fragile items only?
Yes. Fragile-only packing covers glass, china, artwork, mirrors and anything else you would rather have wrapped professionally, while you pack the rest yourself.
Do I have to pay for boxes and materials?
Yes, but you never have to source them. A packing package includes an allowance of boxes, tape, bubble wrap and wardrobe cartons in its price. If you are packing yourself, the crew can bring materials and they are itemised in your quote.
