0333 772 3714WhatsAppSeven days a week, 8:00am – 10:30pmHow your quote is built
Up to two parts, each from a published price. The move is charged by the hour; packing, if you want it, is a fixed package.
The move
By the hour, plus mileage
A fixed hourly rate for the vehicle and crew. The total depends on how long loading and unloading actually take.
- Set by vehicle and crew size
- Billed for hours worked, against the vehicle minimum
- Distance added per mile
Packing, if you want it
A fixed package by property size
Packing labour and a set allowance of materials in one price, based on the number of bedrooms.
- Set by property size, not hours
- Labour and materials both included
- Any extra time or materials itemised in your quote
Stairs
£10 per person on the crew, per flight of stairs, for each hour at that address — loading time at the collection, unloading time at the delivery. A floor is 2 flights. Only the ground floor is free, and a working lift that takes the furniture means no stair charge.
| Floor | Flights | Crew of two, per hour |
|---|---|---|
| Ground floor | 0 | Included |
| First floor | 2 | £40 |
| Second floor | 4 | £80 |
| Third floor | 6 | £120 |
| Fourth floor | 8 | £160 |
Each floor above the fourth adds 2 more flights. Charged at each address, so a third-floor flat to a second-floor flat carries both. Your quote shows the flights, crew and hours for each one.
Dismantling and reassembly
Charged per item rather than by the hour, so it does not inflate the rate for people who do not need it. Every dismantling or reassembly booking is subject to a £90 minimum. Guide prices assume the item can be reused as originally fixed — fitted, bespoke, glued, damaged, mirrored, glass or antique furniture is quoted after photographs or a survey.
| Item | Dismantle only | Dismantle + reassemble |
|---|---|---|
| Single / double standard bed | £50 | £90 |
| King / super king bed | £60 | £110 |
| Ottoman / storage bed | £75 | £140 |
| Bunk / high sleeper bed | £80 | £150 |
| Electric / complex bed | From £100 | From £180 |
| Standard 2-door wardrobe | £60 | £110 |
| 3-door wardrobe | £75 | £140 |
| 4-door wardrobe | £90 | £170 |
| 5–6 door wardrobe | £120 | £220 |
| IKEA PAX — 2–3 sections | £100 | £180 |

| Fitted / bespoke wardrobe | Survey / quote | Survey / from £300 |
| Standard dining table | £40 | £70 |
| Large / heavy dining table | £60 | £100 |
| Sofa — removable legs / arms only | £30 | £50 |
| Modular / sectional sofa | £60 | £100 |
| Sofa bed | £70 | £120 |
| Cot / baby bed | £40 | £70 |
| Desk / office furniture | £40 | From £70 |
| TV stand / media unit | £40 | From £70 |
- Minimum dismantling/reassembly booking: £90.
- Guide prices assume furniture is structurally suitable for dismantling and reassembly and that original fixings can be reused.
- Fitted, bespoke, glued, damaged, mirrored, glass, antique or complex furniture is subject to photographs or a survey and quotation.
- Additional work caused by missing fixings, previous damage, restricted access or non-standard construction may be charged separately.
- Prices are guide/from prices and are confirmed as part of the removal quotation. Dismantling and reassembly does not include repairs, carpentry alterations, electrical work, plumbing or making good walls unless expressly agreed.
TV handling and wall mounting
Prices assume an existing, suitable wall bracket. Concealed cable work, electrical work and new bracket supply are quoted separately.
| Remove TV from an existing wall bracket | £40–£60 |
|---|---|
| TV protection / packing for removal | Quoted by TV size & protection required |
| Remove + professional remount at destination | From £120 |
| Large / difficult TV installation | £150–£250+ |
| Specialist wall, concealed cables or new bracket installation | Separate quotation |
- Wall mounting is carried out only where AFS staff are appropriately trained and the wall, fixings and bracket are suitable.
- Prices assume an existing suitable bracket unless otherwise quoted. AFS cannot guarantee reuse of unsuitable, damaged or incompatible brackets or fixings.
- Concealed cable work, electrical work, new sockets, specialist masonry work and supply of new brackets are not included unless specifically quoted.
- For high-value, very large, OLED, curved, fragile or unusually heavy televisions, photographs or a survey are needed before the price is confirmed. Where specialist installation is required, AFS may provide removal, protection and transport only.
Packing service
Labour and materials for a professional packing service, priced by property size. This is packing only — removal and transport are quoted separately and are not included in these figures.
| Property | Team / slot | Labour | Materials | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | 2 packers / up to 3 hrs | £250 | £150 | £400 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 packers / up to 4 hrs | £350 | £250 | £600 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 packers / up to 6 hrs | £650 | £350 | £1,000 |

- Quantities are standard allowances for normally furnished properties. Heavily furnished homes, lofts, garages, large kitchens, libraries, fragile collections or unusual contents may require extra materials and/or packing time.
