Your winning bid. A considered collection.
How this service works.
Auction and vintage furniture collections often have strict release dates and particular handling needs. Share the lot details, photographs and the sale-room collection deadline. Describe fragile components, existing repairs or loose surfaces, and declare the value so suitability and any relevant cover can be discussed.
What you can ask us to move
Auction furniture cleared for release
Vintage tables, chairs and cabinets
Selected decorative items assessed before acceptance
Fine art, high-value antiques and exceptionally fragile pieces may need a specialist carrier. Acceptance and cover must be agreed.
Prepare for collection.
The purchase and its condition remain your agreement with the seller. Some pieces require specialist packing, climate control or fine-art handling and may not be suitable for an ordinary van move. Ask about these requirements before paying for transport; do not assume a general furniture quote includes specialist protection.
Details to include in your quote.
Provide lot numbers and release paperwork.
Declare value, fragility and existing damage.
Ask the seller about suitable protective packaging.
Include full collection and delivery postcodes, your preferred date and how much carrying help you need. Photos help explain the load but do not replace dimensions and weight. Find your location →

BEFORE YOU BOOK
Auction & vintage furniture collections: your questions.
Are valuable antiques automatically covered?+
No such assumption should be made. Declare the item and value and ask for the applicable terms and cover before booking. A specialist carrier may be necessary.
What is included in my quote?+
Ask for the vehicle, crew, collection and delivery scope, price basis, waiting charges and any agreed materials or extra work to be confirmed. Fine art, high-value antiques and exceptionally fragile pieces may need a specialist carrier. Acceptance and cover must be agreed.
Is my booking confirmed when I send the form?+
No. The team must review suitability and availability and agree the price and terms with you. Keep your enquiry reference; no payment is taken by this form.
LET’S GET THE DETAILS RIGHT
Your move. Your quote.
Tell us what’s coming with you. We’ll use your details to review the route and discuss your move.
Collection and delivery postcodes
Items, carrying help and access
Preferred date or flexible plans
No payment to enquire.
Submitting the form does not reserve a van. Price, crew and availability are confirmed separately.
The quote depends on the load, journey, stairs, parking, carrying help and date. Request a tailored quote and agree whether the price is fixed or time-based, including any minimum charges and extras.
Will someone help me carry the items?+
Tell us how much loading and unloading help you need. The number of movers and included carrying are agreed before booking; do not assume one person can move every item safely.
Can I request a weekend or short-notice move?+
Yes. Give your preferred date, any flexibility and collection windows. We check each request; a submitted enquiry does not guarantee same-day or weekend availability.
Can I request packing or dismantling?+
Yes. Include the items and the work you need in the form. Materials, dismantling, assembly and specialist handling are only included when specifically agreed.
Do you offer self-drive van hire or waste clearance?+
No. This form is for transport and moving-service enquiries. It is not self-drive rental or a rubbish clearance booking.
