Packing Service for House Moves in the UK

Every room packed with care, so you do not have to lift a box

Northampton base, UK-wide DBS-checked staff Fully insured removals

Short answerA packing service for a house move means someone else packs the whole home, carefully and in an order that makes sense, so you do not have to lift, bend or decide in a hurry. It suits anyone short of time or strength, and is designed with older people in mind. Chayce includes packing of every room, with fragile items protected and boxes labelled by destination room, from £995, and can unpack at the other end from £1,850.

Packed carefully, labelled clearly

Packing a home is tiring and, for many people, physically too much, especially after many years in one place. Our packing service takes the heavy, repetitive work off your shoulders while you stay in charge of what goes where.

  • Every room packed

    Professional packing of all rooms, so there are no half-finished cupboards or boxes left for the family to deal with.

  • Fragile items protected

    China, glass, ornaments and sentimental pieces are packed with protective materials as standard, with no extra charge for careful handling.

  • Labelled by room

    Boxes are labelled by destination room, so unpacking at the new home is quicker and calmer.

  • Essentials kept to hand

    Medication, important papers and the things you need on the first night are kept accessible rather than buried in boxes.

Packing is included from Bronze Essentials. Unpacking and setting up the new home is included from Silver Comfort. Packing is carried out by DBS-checked staff.

How packing works

From first look to last box

  1. 1

    Plan it

    A Discovery Consultation, from £150, sets out a plan, timeline and budget in an hour, before you commit to anything.

  2. 2

    Decide what comes

    You decide what is moving, what is staying and what is going to family or charity. Sorting help is available from Silver Comfort.

  3. 3

    We pack

    Room by room, with fragile and sentimental items protected and boxes labelled by destination.

  4. 4

    We move and set up

    An insured removal, then unpacking and set-up at the new home with Silver Comfort or above.

Most people book packing a few weeks before the move. Tell us your dates and we will say what is possible.

Packing yourself or having it done

When a packing service helps most

Limited strength or mobility

Lifting, bending and standing for long periods are hard on the body. A packing team does the physical work for you.

A short timescale

When a sale, a care place or a retirement flat has a fixed date, a team can pack in days what might take weeks alone.

Family far away

If children or relatives live a long way off, a coordinator and packing team take the strain, with the family kept informed.

Fragile or treasured things

Antiques, china and keepsakes are packed with proper protection and handled with care.

Always your decision

You choose what is packed and what is not.

We never rush sentimental items, and your family can be involved as much or as little as you like.
