From an Earby doorstep to the other end of the country
London is about 228 miles from Earby by the A629, the A650, the M606, the M62 and the M1. A run like that is a long day, so the loading time is set early and the van leaves Earby once everything is strapped. If the far end cannot be reached in a sensible day, an overnight stop may be agreed in the quote. Manchester, about 38 miles by the M65, A56 and M66, is a different kind of job: a full day with time to spare at each end.
Hours on the M62 and M1 test a load in a way the hop to Skipton never does. Half-empty boxes crush, so fill them to the top; a mirror or picture wants its own carton; and a sofa rides on its feet, blanketed and strapped in place. Beds and wardrobes you own leave Earby in pieces and are bolted back together in the new rooms. The load space is 3.4m by 1.3m by 1.7m, so a full house may need a plan for one load or two.
Planning a long move out of Earby
- Send both full addresses and the access at each end, including stairs and parking
- Confirm the keys and completion time at the far end before the day is set
- Book packing the day before if you want the house boxed up for you
- Goods in transit cover is £10,000, so check your own insurance for anything above that
- Carry passports, deeds, medicines and jewellery in your own car for the journey south
