Our Removals & Storage Services
Free Survey
A surveyor will conduct a free home survey to establish the precise volume of effects being transported. This involves observing your current home room-by-room, carefully noting items to be transported or exported, whilst recording all details via electronic tablet. Alternatively, you can conduct a video survey yourself.
Packing Service
Once you agree to proceed, we’ll set a moving date with you for our removals team and vehicles to arrive at your residence for the big day. Our fully trained removals team will export pack and wrap all items being shipped in special breathable bubble wrap and double-lined cardboard boxes, ensuring your prized possessions are suitably protected.
Secure Storage
White and Company owns and operates its own short and long term warehouse facilities strategically placed in 19 locations throughout the United Kingdom, providing secure, clean and dry containerised storage in personal dedicated storage containers. This ensures all your items are stored and protected from damage prior to despatch.
Overseas Shipping
Upon arrival at a local depot, all goods are transferred to the export warehouse to await loading onto a container. The container is booked onto the first available vessel destined to the closest port of entry to your final destination. Once your shipment arrives at the port of destination, your goods will pass through customs prior to despatch to your new home.
Local & National Removals
We provide an award winning local & national house removals service across the whole of the UK. With a fleet of over 265 vehicles and 19 branches strategically located in some of the UK's most popular towns and cities in close proximity to major ports, we provide a fast and reliable house removals service whether you're moving locally or nationally.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right removals company?
Choosing a reputable removals company is essential for a smooth, stress-free move. Look for firms that are members of the British Association of Removers (BAR), which ensures high standards, regular audits, and access to independent dispute resolution. Check out customer reviews for real-life experiences, request several quotes, and ask about pre-move surveys so you can make an informed decision.
Do you offer secure storage options?
Yes, we do. With 19 branches across the UK, we offer short and long-term storage in secure, dust-free wooden pallet containers. You’ll only pay for the space you use, making it a flexible and cost-effective solution—especially useful during renovations, downsizing, or in-between moves.
Is there a White & Company depot near me?
We operate across the UK, from Scotland to the South Coast. To find your closest branch, simply visit our branch locator page and enter your postcode.
When should I book my move and make payment?
It’s best to book your move four to six weeks in advance to guarantee availability. Payment in full is required before moving day, and your payment is fully protected under the BAR’s Advanced Payment Guarantee (APG) when booking with a BAR member.
Can I pay online?
Yes! You can make secure payments through our Customer Gateway Payment page on our website. You’ll need your quotation number handy, and the platform is encrypted to keep your information safe. If you need help, our team is always here to assist.
Do you provide professional packing services?
Absolutely. We offer expert packing services tailored to your needs, whether you’re moving locally, nationally, or overseas. Our trained staff will carefully pack and label your belongings, create an inventory, and help ensure everything arrives safely and unpacking is simple.
Can I pack everything myself?
You can, and some customers prefer it. But remember—it’s physically demanding, time-consuming, and can be risky. Our trained staff are experts in safe lifting and secure packing. Also note that owner-packed boxes will not be covered under our insurance, so any damage may not be claimable.
Are there any items you can’t move?
Yes, some items are restricted for safety or legal reasons. These include flammable liquids, certain batteries, oil-based paints, and foodstuffs for international moves. Most countries also prohibit importing houseplants or seeds. We also cannot move pets, which require specialist transport. Always check destination customs regulations.
How can I save money on my move?
Decluttering is one of the easiest ways to cut costs. Fewer items mean less time and lower fees. Sell, donate, or recycle what you no longer need, it saves money and simplifies settling into your new home.
