Your local movers
Nursling is a historic village about four miles north-west of Southampton city centre, by the River Test. The Romans built a bridge over the Test here, and the parish church is dedicated to St Boniface, who lived at the abbey in Nursling in the 8th century.
Today Nursling has been absorbed into Southampton's suburbs, but it's still part of the Test Valley district, so council services are run by Test Valley Borough Council.
Homes range from older village cottages to modern family houses. Older properties can have low ceilings, narrow doors and tight stairs, so we bring the right crew size and dismantle furniture where needed.
Nursling is close to the M27 and the M271, so moves to Romsey, Totton, the New Forest, Eastleigh or further afield are quick to get going.

Local know-how
Nursling has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.
Nursling grew up beside the River Test, where the Romans once bridged the river.
Older village homes can mean narrow doors and tight stairs, so we dismantle larger furniture and protect walls.
Nursling is in Test Valley, so council tax and bins are handled by Test Valley Borough Council.
Parking tip: if the van needs to stop on a council road in Nursling, contact Test Valley Borough Council in advance about a parking bay suspension, and tell us where the van can stop.

★★★★★I used this to move within Southampton, and then out of Southampton a few years later, and both times it was a very positive experience. From first message to the last box leaving the truck, I was assured about the move.
