Why Choose Us For Your Altrincham Move?

A lot of ‘removals’ firms don’t take what they do all too seriously. We understand, as seasoned removals experts, that it isn’t just your possessions we’re moving from A to B. It’s peoples lives. That’s why we put emphasis on being professional, clean, tidy and above all, careful.

We offer a full comprehensive moving service, allowing you to focus on the more important aspects of your move. This means we’ll pack and secure all of your goods for transport for your Altrincham move, using specialist packing materials to secure things like TVs, pictures and mirrors. We’re also fully ensured, so you can rest at ease knowing that your possessions are at all times fully protected from any accidental damage.

Throughout the whole process, your move will sit with one of our fully trained move managers. They’ll walk you through the entire process, ensuring you have a full schedule of where we’ll be during your move so everything can go as smooth as possible.

So, if you’re moving to the beautiful, bustling town of Altrincham (or maybe somewhere further afield like Dunham Massey!) we’d be happy to draw up a no obligation quote. Just give us a call on 0161 327 1981 or fill in the contact form at the top of this page.

Do you offer packing services or supply packing materials?

During your quote, we’ll determine what specialist materials will be required to safely complete your move. This includes the usage of TV or wardrobe boxes to protect delicate goods from dirt, dust, grime or damage.

If you choose to accept the provided quote and use us for your move, all packaging materials will be included as part of the cost, including sturdy cardboard boxes for you to pack your items away in.

We always recommend our customers to take us up on our packing service as our team has ample experience in packing goods for transport and can do it efficiently enough to not delay your move. For more information on packing supplies and materials, please click here.

Do you offer Short / Long Term Storage?

We offer both long & short term storage solutions. Our secure storage facility is conveniently located at our headquarters (Unit 7 Sidcup Rd, Wythenshawe, Manchester M23 9PH.)

If you can’t complete your move straight away, we can retain furniture & goods in our storage facility for as long as required (*subject to charges.) 

Please note, however, our storage facility is only available to access between the hours of 9am to 5pm.

For more information, please visit our page on long & short term storage or contact us directly.

Do we charge for key waits?

Unlike many other removals companies, we do not charge for key waits. If you choose to move with us, any additional delays are covered (within limits) in your final quoted cost.

Can you dispose of waste / unwanted goods / furniture?

We can’t directly. We are not equipped with a waste license. However, if you require waste disposal, we work alongside partners that can get the job done for you.

If your domestic or commercial move requires waste disposal, let us know and we’ll factor this into your quote/survey.

What carrying capacity do the vans have?

There’s no move too big for Soldiers On The Move.

We have an immediate fleet of Luton box vans and tail lift access. If your move requires a HGV, we can also accommodate through our trusted partners. If you have additional accessibility or capacity concerns, don’t hesitate to contact us directly and speak to one of our team.

Are you insured?

Yes. Fully insured and licensed.

What time will Soldiers On The Move arrive?

On the day of your move, our team will always aim to be there bright and early (usually between 8:30am and 9am) though this is entirely flexible depending on our customer requirements. If you need us to get there even earlier than 8:30am, we’ll be more than happy to accommodate (as long as you’ve got the kettle on!)

Please note: Availability may vary on long distance moves due to scheduling requirements.

What are your cancellation terms?

Unlike many other removal firms, we don’t take a deposit. If you’ve booked in and confirmed with us and need to change the date of your move, please get in touch with us and we’ll always try and accommodate.

If your booking has been confirmed and you cancel within 5 working days of your move, you may be subject to an administrative charge. This is reviewed on a case by case basis and not always applicable. Simple delays and date changes can always be accommodated. If you’re unsure, just get in touch with us and we’ll talk you through the process.

Do we offer a military / NHS discount?

We offer a 10% discount for ex/active military and NHS staff. We do not offer this discount to Blue Light card holders.

How soon can you move us?

We will always try and accommodate quick turnarounds, so if you have an urgent removal requirement, please call us today (0161 327 1981) or get in touch.
