Before You Book
How much does a removal company cost in London?
Alpha Movers van hire starts from £80 for a small van to £100 for a medium or Luton van, with a 2-hour minimum booking. Adding help costs from £100 for driver-only self-loading up to £180 for a 3-helper crew for the first 2 hours, then £50-£90 per hour after. No hidden fees or fuel surcharges.
What is the cheapest way to move with Alpha Movers?
The Driver Only self-loading option is our most budget-friendly choice, starting at £100 for the first 2 hours plus £50 per hour after. It is ideal if you can load and unload yourself. For heavier items or stairs, adding 1-2 helpers can speed up the job and often saves money overall.
Do you charge by the hour or offer fixed quotes?
Both. Standard van and helper bookings are hourly with a 2-hour minimum. For larger or complex moves, send your inventory and access photos on WhatsApp and we will provide a fixed price instead.
What size van do I need for my move?
A small van of around 100 cubic feet suits student or single-room moves. A medium van of around 250 cubic feet covers most 1-2 bed flats and furniture moves. A Luton van of around 500-600 cubic feet with tail-lift handles 3-4 bed homes, office moves and heavy appliances.
Does Alpha Movers cover all London boroughs?
Yes. Alpha Movers serves all 32 London boroughs, based at 779 Eastern Avenue, Ilford IG2 7RX, with support available 8am-10pm, 7 days a week.
Is Alpha Movers insured?
Yes. Every booking includes Goods in Transit and Public Liability cover, protecting your belongings from collection to delivery.
How much does sofa hoisting cost?
Sofa hoisting starts from £150 for a standard single sofa, £180 for a corner sofa and up to £280 for complex balcony or window access jobs, fully insured with padded protection throughout.
How do I get an exact quote?
Send your postcodes, inventory, floor levels and parking details via WhatsApp. Alpha Movers will reply with the clearest pricing option, hourly or fixed, usually within the same day.
