Your local movers
Colden Common is a village and parish about five miles south of Winchester, home to around 4,000 people. As well as the village itself, the parish takes in the hamlets of Hensting, Fisher's Pond, Nob's Crook, Highbridge and Brambridge, and part of it lies within the South Downs National Park.
It has a long history. A Palaeolithic flint-tool "factory" was found at Highbridge in 1915, Holy Trinity Church was completed in 1844, and the village was once known for its brickworks, the last in Hampshire to make hand-made bricks by the clamp method.
Most Colden Common moves are family houses and bungalows, with some older cottages in the hamlets. We check access before the day, especially on country lanes, and give fixed quotes for full house removals.
Colden Common sits between Eastleigh and Winchester, so moves in either direction, or down to Southampton, are short and simple to plan.

Local know-how
Colden Common has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.
The Green is the heart of the village, with residential streets all around it.
Hamlets like Hensting and Brambridge have narrower lanes, so we check access and pick the right size van.
Colden Common is in the City of Winchester district, so council tax and bins are handled by Winchester City Council.
Parking tip: if the van needs to stop on a council road in Colden Common, contact Winchester 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.
