What do removals services include?

Planning a move doesn’t have to be complicated. Whether you’re relocating a few pieces of furniture or organising a full house or flat move, having the right help can make the process far smoother. Professional removals services are designed to take care of the lifting, loading, and transport, helping your belongings reach their new destination safely and efficiently.

Airtasker connects you with trusted local removals experts and man with a van services in Reading Borough, making it easy to compare quotes, read reviews, and book with confidence. From short-distance moves to longer relocations, you’ll find flexible removals solutions that can be tailored to your schedule, access needs, and budget.

Here's what's typically included when you book a removals service on Airtasker:

Move furniture to your new home or apartment

Furniture removals experts can help move and transport your household items such as beds, wardrobes, sofas and couches, dining tables, and bookcases. Your removals expert can help disassemble furniture where needed, securely transport them, and then reassamble them if needed.

These services are ideal for house moves, apartment relocations, or moving individual pieces of furniture within your home. When posting your task, you can include details like access, stairs, and item sizes to help match with the right local mover.

To make settling in easier, you can also book services like furniture assembly, so a Tasker with the right expertise can meet you at your new place and help set everything up. Many people also arrange a move-in or post-move clean to get their new space ready to enjoy right away.

Move fragile items to a secure destination

Fragile removals are designed for items that need extra care during transport. This can include moving pianos you’ve played at family gatherings, moving pool tables that have hosted countless games with friends, or moving artworks and antiques collected over the years. 

Experienced removals experts use protective wrapping and padding materials like bubble wrap and packing paper, and secure loading techniques to help reduce the risk of damage from common moving mistakes. Describing your fragile items clearly when posting your task helps ensure the right equipment and experience are provided.

Move your belongings to a storage facility

If you need to store items temporarily or long-term, nearby movers can move your belongings to a storage facility of your choice. This option is popular when renovating homes, downsizing, between leases, or preparing a property for sale.

Your removals expert can pack and unpack your items to help keep them protected during transport and storage, and then help lift and unload your heavy items once they reach the storage facility. You can arrange to move a full household or just selected items, depending on your needs.

Move your household items to another city or county

Taskers can also support long-distance moves between cities and counties. These services are commonly used for those relocating to a new place, and students moving to or from their university dorms or accommodations.

Movers experienced in long-distance moves can help plan logistics, pack for longer journeys, and coordinate delivery timeframes. You can request door-to-door transport or partial loads depending on your move.

Move smaller loads using backloading options

Backloading offers a more affordable way to transport your items by sharing space on an existing route. This option suits smaller moves, student relocations, or transporting furniture and boxes over longer distances.

Delivery times can be more flexible, but backloading often helps reduce overall moving costs. When posting your task, include details about your items and preferred timing to explore suitable options.
