Your local movers
King's Somborne is a village on the edge of the River Test valley, between Romsey and Stockbridge. It's an old settlement, recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Sunburne, and its Church of St Peter and St Paul dates partly to the early 13th century.
The parish is large and rural, taking in Horsebridge, Little Somborne, Ashley and Brook, as well as John of Gaunt's Deer Park to the west of the village.
Homes here range from thatched and period cottages to larger country houses with long drives. We check access before the day, especially on narrow lanes, and bring the right van and crew size.
King's Somborne sits on the road between Romsey and Stockbridge, so moves to Romsey, Winchester, Southampton or further afield are straightforward to plan.

King's Somborne has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.
Some village lanes are narrow, so we check access in advance and pick the right size van.
Older cottages can mean low beams and tight stairs, so we dismantle larger furniture and protect walls.
King's Somborne 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 King's Somborne, 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.
