FAQ’s

A 1-bed flat or studio move in Greater Manchester costs roughly £300 to £600 for a basic transport-only service, rising to £500 to £900 with full packing. A 3-bedroom family home sits around £800 to £1,500 transport-only or £1,200 to £2,200 with packing. The exact figure depends on the volume of belongings, the access at both addresses, the distance, and whether you book a full packing service. The Xtra Mile survey from our depot at 34 Brindley Rd, Old Trafford, locks the final price upfront so there are no hourly surprises on moving day.

A fixed price tells you the total cost before the move starts, which protects your budget if the day runs long. Hourly rates feel cheap on paper but tend to creep up when access is tight, the weather slows the team, or a piece of furniture takes longer to load. TXM Removals quotes a fixed price after a free in-person or video survey of your property. The same number you sign on the survey is the number you pay on completion.

A full service covers the labour, the moving truck, fuel, tolls, and the packing materials (boxes, bubble wrap, paper, tape) plus the labour to wrap and pack your belongings the day before the move. Goods-in-transit and public liability insurance are included as standard. A transport-only option leaves the packing to you and only covers the loading, driving, and unloading.

Two to four weeks of notice is usually enough for a midweek move, longer for end-of-month or summer Saturday slots when the calendar fills up. If you have a target completion date but a flexible move date, a survey early in the process gives you the most pricing options. For tight timelines, a same-week booking is often possible if our schedule allows, with the trade-off that fewer survey slots are open.

Yes. TXM Removals runs secure storage from the Manchester depot in Old Trafford, with weekly billing and access by appointment. If your sale completes before your purchase, the team loads everything into the truck, drives it straight into storage on the same day, and redelivers when you have keys.
