About this service

A household move is rarely just boxes. There's furniture that needs dismantling, appliances that need careful handling, and a stack of fragile items nobody wants to pack twice.

Rather than calling around, describe your move once. Providers who work on your route respond with what they'd charge and what's included, so you can compare like for like.

What home shifting includes

  1. 01

    Household packing

    Cartons, wrapping and labelling for crockery, clothing, books and fragile items.

  2. 02

    Furniture handling

    Dismantling beds, wardrobes and modular units where needed, and reassembly at the other end.

  3. 03

    Appliance transportation

    Fridges, washing machines, ACs and televisions handled with the right packing material.

  4. 04

    Loading

    Trained crews load the vehicle so weight is distributed and items are secured for transit.

  5. 05

    Transportation

    Local shifts or long-distance runs, in a vehicle sized to your consignment.

  6. 06

    Unloading and unpacking

    Delivery into the correct rooms, with unpacking if you've asked for it.

Why this works well for home shifting

  • One enquiry, several replies

    You hear from multiple providers instead of committing to the first quote you find.

  • Scope you can compare

    Offers state what's included, so a low number with packing excluded is easy to spot.

  • Providers who cover your route

    Your requirement goes to movers who actually operate between your two cities.

  • No booking fee

    Using ShiftingGuru to collect quotes costs you nothing.

Home Shifting questions

Distance, the volume of goods, floor and lift access at both ends, and whether packing and unpacking are included. Two homes on the same route can differ substantially.

Not usually. Most providers offer full packing. Some customers prefer to pack personal documents, jewellery and valuables themselves, which is sensible.

A week or two is comfortable for local moves. For long-distance shifts, or around month-end when demand rises, more notice helps.

Usually yes, though availability is tighter and some providers price weekends differently. Mention your preferred date in your enquiry.
