We also have dedicated packaging materials such as TV boxes on hand as an additional layer of protection. We can also export wrap high end furniture to keep them free from dust, dirt, grime or scratches.
For more information, please visit our page on packing supplies & materials or contact us directly.

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.

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.
