Distance bands
Three bands, and you can see which one you're in.
Distance is the second biggest factor in a removals price after volume, so here is exactly how we treat it.
Band 02
Regional
8 – 40 miles
Flat rate per mile beyond the first eight. Same-day turnaround.
Typically: Mansfield, Derby, Newark, Loughborough
Band 03
Long distance
40+ miles
Priced as one fixed job rather than per hour. Often an overnight.
Typically: London, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol
Regular ground
Where the vans are most weeks.
Not an exhaustive list — it is where we already know the streets, the parking and which roads the Luton won't fit down.

Outside this list? It is almost certainly still a job we will do — longer distances are simply priced as a single fixed journey. Send us the two postcodes and we will tell you.
Eight airports, all pre-booked
East Midlands is 35 minutes away and is where most of our transfer work goes. The London airports are long runs that we do as fixed single jobs, usually starting well before dawn.
Drive times below are typical off-peak runs from Bestwood Village. They exclude the buffer we add to every departure — we work backwards from your check-in, not from the satnav.
