South Kensington moving costs and quote preparation

List fragile pieces separately from packed boxes

Give the table’s travelling sections and dimensions, the framed mirror and all boxes. Identify fragile finishes and unusual weight, include removed legs and fittings and agree who prepares each item before collection.

Declare belongings held elsewhere and every additional pickup or delivery with its own load and contact. The quote needs the complete inventory rather than only the large furniture visible in the room.

Describe the actual room and permitted furniture exit

The Thurloe Estate appraisal records lower-ground lightwell entrances and small mews behind larger buildings. At a home in that setting, confirm whether furniture uses the lower door, main hall or another agreed exit and give every outside and inside flight.

If boxes may use a lift while the table takes stairs, record both routes with permission, measurements and remaining carry. Use the piece-by-piece route sheet to connect prepared dimensions with the actual openings.

Choose help for the complete work at both homes

Have the recipient check the same prepared pieces through their entrance and final rooms, with keys and any appointment confirmed. Record any requested protection or supervision and who arranges it.

With customer loading and unloading, arrange sufficient people for both full carries, including pieces using stairs. Give all goods, routes and fixed windows for the quote. How pricing works explains the booking inputs; a suitable vetted provider is allocated after booking according to requirements and availability.

The table and mirror need their own access description

Illustrative example: a customer moves a prepared table, framed mirror and boxes from a South Kensington flat. The authorised contact confirms which entrance and routes the furniture may use.

The customer measures the tabletop and describes the mirror’s preparation separately, with boxes on their own permitted route. The recipient checks the same prepared pieces and keys before the booking setup is chosen.

Keep a piece-and-route quote record

• All furniture sections, fragile pieces, boxes and stops.
• Prepared dimensions, condition and preparation owner.
• Actual room, permitted door and outside or inside stairs.
• Lift permission, full carries and independent final-room fit.
• Opening contacts, fixed windows and selected help.

Use the fragile-load preparation sequence with London quote guidance.
