Removals in Harefield from a team that knows SO18

Harefield is a suburb on the east side of Southampton, next to Bitterne. Much of it is a council housing estate built around 1952–53 on the grounds of Harefield House, with more private housing around it.

Harefield House itself was built in 1834 for Sir Edward Butler, chairman of the Southampton and Salisbury Railway Company, and was later bought by the Southampton draper Edwin Jones. Its site is now the grounds of the Harefield schools on Yeovil Chase.

Family houses and flats

Most Harefield moves are family houses and flats on residential roads. We plan where the van can stop, and give fixed quotes for full house removals.

Short moves around the east of the city

Many Harefield moves are short hops to Bitterne, Midanbury, West End or Hedge End. These are quick jobs for us, and our man and van service is charged by the hour.

Local know-how

Moving in Harefield: local knowledge that helps

Harefield has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.

Estate

Residential roads

Harefield's estate roads usually have on-street parking, so tell us where the van can stop.

Schools

Busy school runs

The Harefield schools on Yeovil Chase mean busy roads at drop-off and pick-up, so we plan arrival times around them.

Short local trips

Parking tip: if the van needs to stop on a council road in Harefield, contact Southampton City 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.
