There is no single price for moving furniture, because every home is different. But the price always comes from the same factors: how many pieces are moving, how many need dismantling and assembly, how the crew reaches them, the distance between the two homes, and when you move. Understand these and you can compare quotes fairly and see where you can save.
What sets the price of a furniture move?
| Factor | How it affects the price |
|---|---|
| Volume and number of pieces | The biggest factor: it sets the truck size, crew size and working time |
| Dismantling and assembly | Each bedroom or large wardrobe adds working time |
| Packing | Adds materials and time, and saves you a full day |
| Floor and lift | Stairs slow loading and unloading, especially with heavy pieces |
| Distance | A small difference within a city, a major factor between cities |
| Special items | Fitted kitchens, AC units and very heavy pieces need arranging |
| Timing | Month end, holidays and the run-up to school are the busiest |
Why do quotes vary so much?
Usually because they are not pricing the same thing. A quote that includes packing, dismantling, assembly and insurance cannot be compared with one for transport only. Before comparing, ask every company one question: what exactly does this price include? Ask for the answer in writing. The cheapest quote that adds charges on moving day for the lift, the stairs or assembly can end up costing more.
How can you lower the cost?
- Sort before you move. Anything you sell or give away is something you do not pay to move.
- Move mid-month or midweek if you can, away from the peak periods.
- Pack the simple things yourself, such as clothes and books, and leave glass and appliances to the crew.
- Book the lift and truck parking in advance so the crew's time is not wasted.
- Prepare a furniture plan for the new home so unloading and assembly happen without waiting.

Is the cheapest the best?
Not always. What you pay for a move is your furniture arriving intact and in its place. The gap between two quotes can be far less than the cost of one wardrobe broken or assembled wrongly. Read how to choose a reliable furniture moving company to know what to ask before booking.
