The journey
The usual roads are the M18 and the M62 across the Pennines. Weather and motorway delays can move an arrival. We agree a loading window in Doncaster or Manchester and plan the other end around the drive. We will not print a journey time as if it were a timetable.
What to tell us
Both postcodes, the property types, the floors, and whether either building has a loading rule. Manchester city-centre apartments can be as strict as London ones about lifts and bays. A suburban house is usually simpler, but a long path from the van still adds time. List wardrobes, sofas, beds and appliances rather than “a 2-bed” on its own.
Choosing the service
A few items can be a man and van job if the hours cover the drive and the carrying. A home full of furniture should be quoted as a house removal. Packing stays optional. Cover and cancellation follow the published terms, which are summarised on our terms page.
Questions we are often asked
Is the M62 the only way you travel?
It is the usual route. The driver will use another road if the motorway is a poor choice that day. The quote does not change because the driver avoids a queue, unless the job itself changes.
Can you do Manchester to Doncaster in one day?
A flat or a modest house often fits in a day. A large house with packing may not. We will say which when we see the inventory.
