Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Weardale removals

How do you price Weardale moves?

We quote based on access, distance and time. Cottages and farm access can take longer, so we plan for lanes, gradients and parking to keep costs fair and predictable.

Do you offer same-day removals in the dale?

Where possible, yes. We hold limited same-day capacity for urgent moves around Wolsingham, Frosterley and Stanhope—call or WhatsApp for fastest replies.

Can you handle tight lanes and steep drives?

Yes. We assess access in advance and position the Luton safely. For very narrow lanes we can shuttle items if needed.

Will you dismantle and reassemble furniture?

On request. We regularly handle beds, wardrobes and tables; fixings are kept in labelled bags.

Are you insured?

Yes for Haulage. We also use protective blankets, straps and floor protection where required.

Do you do long-distance from DL13?

We run direct trips to Durham, Newcastle, Sunderland, Teesside, Leeds, York and further afield. Same-day delivery available for many routes.

What about bad weather in winter?

We monitor conditions and schedule around snow/ice on higher ground. If access is unsafe, we’ll discuss safe alternatives or re-timing.

Do you provide packing services?

Full packing can be arranged with trusted partners—ask for a combined quote.

Can you move white goods and gym kit?

Yes—washers, dryers, fridges, treadmills and multi-gyms. Please disconnect and drain appliances before pickup.

Do you offer storage?

We can arrange trusted local storage and handle collection and re-delivery—useful between tenancies or renovations.
