Our Testimonials
Martin Sky 02Sep 2019
Can't think of a single fault from Moving Service. They gave a very fair quote and stuck to it, did an excellent job on the day and I felt so relaxed having them around doing all the removals in Islington N1. It was a very good experience.
Maria Villalobos 09Jul 2019
The movers in Islington N1 at Moving Service did a great job moving us to the new home. They were friendly and engaging. The rates were very reasonable, too. Would hire them again.
Leonard 03Jun 2019
To my surprise Moving Service had sent almost the same team that helped me relocate in Islington N1 the last time I used their services, and the only thing that came in mind was how lucky I was since I was very much convinced that my stuff was safe and that I would enjoy the whole experience and I was not disappointed even a little bit. I highly recommend them.

Frequently Asked Questions

In Islington, we start with a quick survey so your house removals plan fits your property and timings. Our fully insured, DBS-checked, and trained movers arrive with protective blankets, straps, and the right tools for doors, stairs, and awkward corners around Islington's streets. You'll get clear packing steps if you've chosen packing, plus careful disassembly for beds and large furniture. We also plan routes for permits and access, especially where parking is tight. After the unload, we place items where you want them and do a final safety check before we leave. It's designed to be calm, organised, and transparent from the first call through to handover.

Yes - we can include packing as part of our moving company service. If you're relocating within Islington, we'll match the packing method to what you're moving: wardrobe boxes for clothing, sturdy cartons for books, and extra protection for glass, mirrors, and electronics. For sustainability, 86% of our packing materials and transport methods are eco-friendly and low-emission, so you're not paying extra for green claims that don't deliver. We use protective wraps and practical boxes that minimise wasted space, and we can reuse suitable materials when possible. If you prefer to pack yourself, we can still provide moving materials, protective supplies, and furniture transport support. Our approach is practical, careful, and designed to reduce damage risk.

Our relocation service uses the kind of equipment that prevents damage and saves time - especially in older Islington buildings with narrow corridors or tight staircases. You can expect furniture blankets for surfacing protection, moving straps for secure lifting, and specialised dollies for heavy items. For flats higher up, we plan stair carries and item sequencing so nothing gets forced through doorways. If something needs disassembly, we'll label parts and keep everything together so reassembly is straightforward. We also take photos before and after move so there's a clear record of condition, which helps with peace of mind. Whether it's house removals, office moves, or furniture transport, the method stays the same: protect, secure, and move efficiently.

You'll be dealing with background-checked professionals, not random contractors. Our accreditation approach is centred on safe working habits, correct handling, and consistent standards across every job - backed by our staff training. We're fully insured, DBS-checked, and trained movers, and we follow the relevant UK transport, safety, and handling regulations for every relocation we do. Depending on your move type, we can also align our procedures with best-practice guidance used by industry partners such as SafeContractor and recognised professional bodies like the British Association of Removers. It means your move is planned properly, carried out with care, and managed by people who know how to handle everything from delicate artwork to heavy desks.

Yes. We provide insurance so you're covered during your house removals or office move. When we arrive, our movers take condition photos and use protection like blankets and straps to reduce the chance of knocks, scratches, or scuffs during transit. The key is careful handling from start to finish: lifting securely, using the right equipment for the job, and planning the route and access beforehand. If any item is especially valuable or fragile, we'll discuss the safest packing and handling method so you can decide what's best. Our team follows the highest safety standards and works within UK regulations, which is reassuring if you're moving on a schedule and want fewer surprises.

Timing depends on property size, access, and whether you need packing, storage, or furniture transport. After your initial survey, we'll confirm a realistic schedule for loading, transit, and unloading. For many local moves around Islington, our process is designed to keep disruption low - typically starting with protection and packing (if chosen), then disassembly for larger items, and finally a methodical load order. We also build in time for tricky steps like stair carries, lift restrictions, or parking arrangements near your address. If you need a particular turnaround - like handing keys over the same day - tell us early and we'll plan around it. Over 11 years of professional removals and relocation services, we've learned how to keep moves running on time.

We believe pricing should be clear before work starts. After a survey, we'll provide a removals quote that reflects what you're moving, how far it's going, and what's required for safe access. That can include packing, disassembly, furniture transport, and any time needed for stairs, lifts, or parking coordination. Our team keeps it straightforward so there aren't surprise costs on the day. If you want, we can also advise how to reduce time - like boxing non-essentials early - so your move stays efficient. Our track record is backed by 8100+ successful moves completed locally, and we're rated 4.8 stars from 299+ verified reviews. You'll get support from first call to final box placement.

Absolutely. Access is one of the biggest factors in smooth removals, so we plan it upfront. If your building has a lift, we'll confirm capacity and fit beforehand; if it's stairs-only, we'll plan item routes and protective stair carry methods. Where parking is limited, we coordinate around loading times to reduce waiting. In many Islington streets, this is crucial - especially near busier areas where vehicles can't park for long. We also handle careful loading to keep items secure during transit. Our DBS-checked movers follow strict handling practices, and we bring the right equipment so heavy items don't become a risk. Call our team and we'll go through the access details together.

We provide professional removals across Islington and nearby boroughs, including: Clerkenwell (Islington), Angel (Islington), Holloway (Islington), Highbury (Islington), Finsbury (Islington), Islington itself, Shoreditch (Hackney), Dalston (Hackney), Camden Town (Camden), Kentish Town (Camden), Hampstead (Camden), Stoke Newington (Hackney), Bloomsbury (Camden), and Holborn (Camden). If you're unsure, tell us your postcode and we'll confirm coverage and the best move plan. This local approach is part of why our relocation service runs smoothly on the day - people aren't guessing; they're using local knowledge for access, routes, and timing.

Yes, and it's something our team thinks about from the survey onward. Whether you're near Angel, close to the bustle around Upper Street, or moving near Regent's Canal towpaths, we plan for realistic access and safe loading. For example, if your property is affected by pedestrian-heavy areas or short waiting bays, we'll schedule the move to reduce delays and keep items protected while being carried. We use protective blankets, straps, and secure transport methods so furniture and fragile items aren't exposed during busy street transfers. If you've got a tight turning circle, we'll discuss your pickup point in advance so the move feels controlled, not rushed. That's the difference between a job and a proper relocation service.

We do. Alongside house removals, our moving-service covers office moves, furniture transport, and part-load options depending on what you need. If you're relocating a small team or replacing specific furniture, a man and van-style approach may suit you - without compromising on protection. We can also help with packing for documents and equipment, and we'll plan item sequencing so desks, chairs, and storage units are moved efficiently. For businesses, timing matters, so we'll agree a clear schedule and work around access rules. Because we've completed thousands of local relocations - 8100+ - we know the details that help moves go smoothly, from floor protection to careful loading. It's a practical service for real-world moves.

Where possible, we aim to reuse suitable packing materials and reduce waste during the process. If you've chosen our packing service, we'll use eco packing boxes and protection that's designed for safe handling, not throwaway quality. At the end of your move, you can ask about material returns so usable items don't end up going to landfill. We also work in line with local expectations for waste and reuse, so you're not left wondering what to do with boxes and wraps. In Islington, many residents prefer council-approved recycling options, and we'll point you in the right direction for the sort of materials you'll end up with. For a more eco-friendly experience, choose packing with us and we'll do our best to keep the footprint low.

We follow the safest practical approach for every relocation: correct lifting, secure transport, and careful handling procedures that align with UK safety expectations. Our fully insured, DBS-checked, and trained movers work with protective equipment to reduce the risk of breakage and ensure items arrive as they should. Where helpful, we also mirror the type of processes used by organisations such as SafeContractor and guidance you might see from recognised industry bodies like the British Association of Removers. If you're comparing removals services, look for clear insurance, transparent procedures, and people who can explain how they'll handle your specific items. That's what you get with Moving Service - professional movers, reliable planning, and a process backed by real customer feedback.

You can check our performance through verified feedback - Rated 4.8 stars from 299+ verified reviews. We're also known for consistency: over 11 years of professional removals and relocation services with a track record of 8100+ successful moves completed locally. That matters because removals aren't just about lifting boxes; it's about planning access, timing the load, protecting fragile items, and keeping comms clear. We're comfortable talking through what's realistic for your property - especially in older terraces where stair turns and narrow landings change how the move should be done.
