Flat and Apartment Removals in Bath

Flat and apartment moves are their own kind of job in Bath, and this service handles them from the first box to the last, whether you are in a studio, a one-bed or a room in a shared house. A lot of the city's flats are carved out of grand old townhouses, which brings communal front doors you cannot prop open, staircases built for one household now serving four, and top floors reached by a stair that turns at every landing.

We move people in and out of these across the whole of Bath and nearby areas such as Oldfield Park and Larkhall. Ground floor or three flights up under the eaves, we bring enough hands to finish the job without a scuffed communal hallway or a sofa jammed on a turn.

Top-floor conversions and their staircases

In a converted Georgian townhouse the stairwell decides everything. These were fine staircases in their day, but none was built to carry a flat-pack wardrobe up to the attic flat. We plan the carry around the turns and the headroom, and where a piece genuinely will not go up whole, we take it apart and rebuild it in the room. That is the gap between a smooth morning and an hour of shoving.

Give us the floor and a sense of how the stairs run when you ask for a quote, and we will bring enough people to do it safely.

Getting bulky items through old doorways

Older Bath conversions were not laid out with modern furniture in mind, so mattresses come round half-landings at an angle and bed frames sometimes lose a leg to clear a door. The crew knows the moves that free a bulky item without gouging the plaster, and would rather slow down for a moment than force something past and cost you a chunk of your deposit.

If an item honestly will not make the stairs, we say so before the day itself, so there is no nasty surprise on the morning.

Communal entrances and street loading

Flats in Bath usually mean a shared door you cannot wedge open and a street where the van cannot linger. We arrive ready for both, whether that is a slightly longer carry from the nearest legal stopping point or an early start to get ahead of the day's parking. In the centre we work around the loading windows so nothing catches us out.

Tell us about the entrance and where the van can pull in when you book, and we will plan the load to fit.

What a flat move costs

Flat moves are priced on the number of rooms, the floors involved and the distance, not on guesswork. Give us those basics and you get a clear figure with nothing tucked into the small print.

Get in touch and we will hold a slot for the day your tenancy ends or your purchase completes.

Frequently asked questions

Can you bring furniture down from a top-floor flat?+

Yes, upper-floor conversions are routine work for us in Bath. We use the stairs carefully and part-dismantle anything that will not come down whole. Just tell us the floor when you book.

What happens if my sofa will not fit the staircase?+

We take it apart where possible and rebuild it in the room, or plan an alternative route in advance. Flag the item and the access early so we bring enough hands.

Do you move a single room from a shared house?+

Yes. Room moves from house shares are among the most common jobs we do across the city.

How many flights of stairs is too many?+

None, in practice. Top-floor conversions are routine here. What matters is that we know the number of flights before we quote, because it changes how many people we send rather than whether we come at all.

If the stairs beat a piece, can it go out through a window?+

Hoisting through a sash window is specialist work with its own kit and we do not take it on. What we will do is try the piece apart first, since most things that will not turn a Georgian landing will come apart and go back together.

Do you move between two flats in the same building?+

Often. Moving a floor up or across a landing is one of the cheaper jobs we do, because there is no drive in the middle of it. It still gets a fixed price before we start.
