Removals Wakefield

Can I Get a Free Removal Survey?

Yes, of course, at White & Company, we offer a free, no-obligation removals survey to assess your needs and provide you with a detailed written quotation. This service helps us understand your requirements so we can offer an accurate cost. It’s always a good idea to get at least two quotes to compare. To book your free survey, call our Knaresborough office on 01423 594536 or use our online quote form.

Are Packing Services Included?

Absolutely. We offer full or partial packing services depending on your needs. Our trained staff use top-quality materials and clear labelling to keep your belongings safe during transit. Whether you’re moving across Wakefield or across the country, our expert packing saves you time and ensures everything arrives in one piece. If you prefer to pack yourself, we can also supply the necessary boxes and materials.

Why Choose a Professional Removals Company?

While it may be tempting to manage your move yourself, hiring a professional removals company like White & Company can save you time, stress, and hassle. Our expert movers handle everything from careful packing to safe transport, using the right tools and techniques to protect your belongings. Whether you’re moving to or from Wakefield or further afield, our experienced team makes sure everything arrives at your new home securely. It’s a smart investment in peace of mind, especially during what can be a chaotic and stressful time.

How Far in Advance Should I Book My Move?

To secure your preferred moving date, it’s best to book your removals service at least 4–6 weeks in advance. If you’re planning to move during busy periods like school holidays or the summer months, aim for 8 weeks or more. Wakefield is a popular area for families and professionals relocating, so securing your slot early helps you avoid last-minute stress and ensures you get the service you need, when you need it.

Is White & Company a BAR Member?

Yes, we are proud members of the British Association of Removers (BAR), which means we meet strict quality and service standards. BAR membership offers extra peace of mind, including protection through their Advanced Payment Guarantee (APG) and a formal complaints resolution process should anything go wrong. You can check our membership or find out more about BAR via their website.

How Can I Lower the Cost of My Move?

One of the best ways to reduce your moving costs is to declutter before you go. The fewer items you take, the smaller the van size or the less time needed – which can cut your bill. Donating, recycling, or selling unwanted items is not only cost-effective, but it also makes unpacking easier too.

Do You Offer Storage in Wakefield?

Yes, if you need secure storage during your move, we’ve got you covered. Our facilities are clean, monitored, and ideal for short- or long-term use. Whether you’re downsizing, in between homes, or simply need a place to keep things safe while renovating, our Wakefield-area storage solutions offer flexibility and peace of mind.

Do You Handle Moves Outside Wakefield?

Definitely. Whether you’re moving from Wakefield to London, Edinburgh, or anywhere in between, White & Company has the experience and fleet to manage long-distance UK relocations. We coordinate everything for you from collection to delivery, no matter how far you’re going. Learn more about our national removals service at https://www.whiteandcompany.co.uk.

Do You Handle International Moves?

Yes, in fact, international and European moves are our speciality. White & Company has decades of experience moving families to Europe, the USA, Australia and beyond. We handle all the logistics, customs paperwork, and secure packing.

Do You Transport Pets?

Unfortunately, we are unable to transport pets due to regulatory and welfare considerations. Moving animals safely requires specialist equipment and handling. For the wellbeing of your pet, we recommend using a professional pet relocation company. They’ll ensure your furry friend travels safely and comfortably to your new home.

Should I Tip the Movers?

Tipping is entirely optional and at your discretion. If you feel the team has gone above and beyond, a tip is always appreciated, but there’s absolutely no obligation. Our crews are committed to providing excellent service with or without a tip.

Do You Offer Removal Services on Weekends?

Yes, we can arrange weekend removals depending on availability. This is especially helpful for busy professionals or families who want to minimise disruption to work or school schedules. Be sure to book early, though, as weekend slots fill up fast, especially in high-demand areas like Wakefield.
