Prices are estimates. Your final quote will depend on the size of the move, access, distance, date and services required.

What changes the price

  • Port and cruise-terminal traffic, city-centre parking controls, and upper-floor access can add time to loading and travel.
  • Packing, dismantling, larger inventories, and extra crew change the final price for terraces and family homes.
  • M27, M3, and A33 congestion plus mileage towards Eastleigh, Totton, or the New Forest affect journey allowances.

Access and route notes

  • Confirm parking or bay-suspension arrangements, floor level, lift access, and carry distance for city-centre and Ocean Village addresses.
  • Share doorway, stair, and bulky-item details for Portswood and Shirley terraces before quotes are prepared.
  • For port-area or out-of-city moves, tell movers about terminal traffic, access windows, narrow approaches, or long carries from the van.

Before you book

  • Compare the same inventory, packing level, access details, crew size, and move date across every quote.
  • Ask whether parking, waiting time, dismantling, mileage, and M27 or M3 travel time are included.
  • Use the instant estimate to plan, then request final quotes through MAZE before booking.
