Duffield Removals

Oswestry and Shropshire

Removals in Oswestry and north Shropshire

Oswestry sits between our two bases, forty minutes from Chester and an hour from our Mid Wales base, which is why it has its own line, 01691 728 729. We move homes and businesses in Oswestry, Gobowen, St Martins, Chirk, Ellesmere, Whitchurch, Wem and Shrewsbury, and out of Shropshire to the rest of the UK.

The Oswestry area

Oswestry itself, the villages on the Welsh border (Weston Rhyn, Chirk, Llanymynech, Pant), Gobowen and Whittington, and the market towns along the A5 and A495: Ellesmere, Wem, Whitchurch. Shrewsbury and its suburbs are a regular run. Moves into Wales, to Welshpool or Wrexham, are as easy as moves into Cheshire, because both directions are home ground.

Which base serves you

Oswestry, Ellesmere and Whitchurch are usually run from Chester; Llanfyllin, Llanrhaeadr and the Welsh side from Mid Wales. Goods from the Chester side normally go to our Chester storage, and goods from Powys to Rhayader. We decide when you book so the travel is short and the price reflects it.

Town houses, farms and new estates

Oswestry mixes Georgian town houses with narrow stairs, farms with long tracks and the new estates on the Shrewsbury Road side. The question that matters most here is access: whether the Luton can reach the door or whether a van shuttles from the lane.

Removals in Whitchurch and the border villages

Whitchurch is thirty-five minutes from our Chester base down the A41, a market town of Georgian streets around the high street and St Alkmund's, with estates on the Wrexham Road and Tilstock Road sides and farms and villages in every direction: Wem, Prees, Tilstock, Ash, Marbury and, over the Cheshire line, Malpas and Tushingham. It is served from Chester as a local move.
