What a professional packing service actually covers

Glassware wrapped piece by piece. Mirrors and framed photos boarded. Wardrobes transferred on the rail into wardrobe boxes so nothing needs ironing twice. In February 2025 we packed the Mercer family's four-bedroom house in Brewood after 18 years in it, room by room, with a separate essentials box for the first night. Their cat claimed an open box as a throne. Standard.

Heavy books go in small boxes, the classic box-of-bricks mistake avoided. Kitchen cupboards always hide one more cupboard, so we plan kitchen time honestly instead of rushing the part of the house with all the breakables in it.

Part packing and unpacking: pay for the help you need

Most people do not need the whole house packed. The popular version is the fragile pack: kitchen, glassware, ornaments and artwork done by us, clothes and books done by you. It cuts the bill and still protects the things that actually break.

At the other end we can unpack, flatten and remove the boxes the same day. The Thornborough move is the honest pitch for it: packed for her, moved, then unpacked at the new house. Her review called us the best she had ever used, and she had moved alone before.

Recent jobs

Four recent packing jobs, exactly as they happened

February 2025

Dean Street, Brewood ST19Shrewsbury SY3

4 bedrooms

The family had lived there for 18 years, so the airing cupboard alone had developed its own civilisation. The team packed room by room, labelled clearly and made a separate essentials box for the first night. Their cat, Poppy, claimed one open box as her throne.

"The packing labels saved our sanity at the other end."
The Mercer family

April 2025

Broad Street, Birmingham B1Solihull B91

2 bedroom flat

The client had a lot of glassware and a very nervous look whenever anyone touched it. Each piece was wrapped individually, with heavier items separated and boxes marked clearly.

"Not one glass broken. I genuinely checked twice because I did not believe it."
The Ahmed family

October 2025

Walsall Road, Cannock WS11Wombourne WV5

5 bedrooms

Several framed family photos needed extra care, and one large mirror looked like trouble from the start. It was wrapped, boarded and loaded separately. Their grandson asked whether the team could also pack his homework so it got lost forever.

"Patient, careful and lovely with the family."
The Davies family

January 2026

Bilston Street, Dudley DY3Wolverhampton WV4

bungalow contents

The client wanted partial packing, mainly ornaments, books and the loft finds that nobody remembered owning. The team sorted heavy books into small boxes, avoiding the classic 'box of bricks' situation.

"They made the awkward bits feel easy."
The Newton family

"Used these guys to move from Wednesbury to Bromsgrove. I was a bit apprehensive because I had so many fragile goods and wanted the utmost care given to them… I shouldn’t have..."

Frequently asked questions

How much does a packing service cost?

It depends on the size of the house and whether you want full packing or just the fragile rooms, so we quote it alongside your removal. Tell us what you want packed and the figure comes back the same day, itemised so you can trim it if you like.

Do you supply the boxes and packing materials?

Yes. Double-walled boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, tape and wardrobe boxes are all part of the service. You do not need to buy or scrounge anything.

Can you pack just the kitchen and fragile items?

Yes, part packing is the most popular option. We do the kitchen, glassware, mirrors and artwork; you do the wardrobes and bookshelves. It protects the breakable stuff without paying for a full pack.

When do you pack, moving day or before?

Usually the day before for a full pack, so moving day starts with loading rather than wrapping. Smaller part-packs can happen on the morning of the move. We will recommend the right plan when we see the size of the job.

Do you offer unpacking at the new house?

Yes. We can unpack room by room, set furniture where you want it, and take the empty boxes and paper away with us, so you start the first evening in a home rather than a warehouse.
