    How It Works

    We will bring a container (or 2) to your home and our staff fill it for you.

    Next, we will seal the container and place it in our warehouse ready for delivery to your new home.

    Each container comes supplied with 5 cartons, a roll of tape and packing paper, so you can pack as we load or you can collect the cartons in advance from our warehouse.

    It’s a very simple and effective solution!

    Declutter with Storage Containers

    To use our de-clutter service we charge £25.00 plus VAT per container collected or delivered within 15 miles of any of our superb warehouses.

    Warehouse rental charges are £6.00 plus VAT per container per week and the first 4 weeks are FREE.

    With over 150 years of experience of moving families in the UK, Europe and overseas, White and Company are one of the oldest family owned UK removal companies.

    We can take care of all your removals requirements to help you achieve a stress free home move.

    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.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why am I nervous about selling my house?

    If you’re experiencing stress about selling your house, you’re not alone. Recent surveys highlighted common concerns, including selling the home within a desired timeframe, achieving the asking price, synchronising the sale with the purchase of a new home, and navigating negotiations with buyers.

    How can I increase my chances of selling my house?

    You can improve your likelihood of selling your house by selecting a motivated estate agent who aligns with your needs and can assist in determining a realistic asking price. Enhancing your home’s curb appeal and decluttering will make it more attractive to potential buyers during viewings. Additionally, consider sprucing up or redecorating rooms to provide clear definition, helping buyers envision how they might live in your home once purchased.

    Is selling my home going to get harder?

    It’s anticipated that ongoing pressures on house prices will continue over the next 12 months, driven by heightened competition among sellers. The swift increase in interest rates has elevated mortgage costs, impacting both transaction volumes and prices. With all of this in mind, it is essential that you stay up to date with the housing market when considering selling your home!

    What’s the most stressful part of selling a house?

    The uncertainty surrounding the selling process is often the most stressful aspect of selling a house. Before initiating the sale, conduct research to understand the duration and steps involved, from finding a buyer to exchanging keys. This knowledge can alleviate concerns about whether things are progressing as they should.

    Should I do up my house before selling?

    Improvements that generate a sense of space, privacy, and a positive first impression significantly boost the saleability of a property. Avoid over-personalising the decor to ensure it appeals to as many potential buyers as possible, allowing them to envision adapting the property to suit their own needs.

    Why do some houses struggle to sell?

    The primary reason for a house failing to sell is often an asking price that’s too high. Even if buyers can afford the requested amount, most are discerning enough to recognise when a property is overpriced.
