Removals in Nantwich

Nantwich is the prettiest move in Cheshire and one of the more awkward: the Georgian and Tudor town centre has narrow streets, on-street parking and stairs that were not built for wardrobes, while the villages around it, Willaston, Wybunbury, Audlem, Acton, Wrenbury and Burland, are semis, barn conversions and farms down single-track lanes. The quote asks about the stairs, the parking and the lane before the day, so the price reflects what the crew will actually meet.

Inside the town

Welsh Row, Hospital Street, Barker Street and the streets off the square are period houses with narrow front doors, steep stairs and no off-road parking. The plan is usually a smaller van at the door, a larger one on Beam Street or at the car park, and export wrapping for the pieces that have to go through a doorway at an angle. Residents' parking in the centre means a bay suspension from Cheshire East where the street is tight; we apply for it as part of the job.

The villages and the farms

Willaston, Stapeley and Wistaston are modern estates and the easiest days. Wybunbury, Audlem, Acton, Wrenbury, Burland and Ravensmoor are village semis, cottages and converted barns, sometimes a mile down a lane where a Luton cannot turn. The quote settles that before the day, from your answers and a few photos: which vehicle, whether a van shuttles to the road, and how many crew for the carry.

Antiques and the things Nantwich houses contain

Our export wrapping page explains the method; on a Nantwich move it is the difference between an old house arriving intact and a French polisher's bill.

Questions we get asked

Nantwich: the answers

Can you move a house on Welsh Row or Hospital Street?

Yes. We use a smaller van at the door and a larger one parked where it can wait, arrange a bay suspension where the street needs one, and export wrap the pieces that must go through at an angle.

Do you cover Audlem, Wrenbury and the villages towards Whitchurch?

Yes, from our Chester base, on the same terms as Nantwich itself.

How do you quote for a house down a lane?

From your answers, a phone call and photos on WhatsApp of the lane, the drive and the doorways, so the price allows for the vehicle and the carry.

Can you move a piano or antiques?

Yes, export wrapped and moved on the right equipment, with higher liability limits agreed in the quote for pieces of particular value.

Is storage available near Nantwich?

At our Chester storage, with the collection and the delivery back priced in the same quote as the move.
