Your local movers
Stockbridge is a small town in the Test Valley, sitting astride the River Test at the foot of Stockbridge Down. It's almost entirely one long, wide High Street, which has been the heart of the town since medieval times, when it lay on the route between Winchester and Salisbury.
The town has a long history: it held a market before 1190, and the Swan Inn, where James II dined in 1688, still stands. Five smaller river channels flow through the town, and the Test Way footpath passes through too.
Many Stockbridge homes are older cottages and period houses, which can mean low beams, narrow doors and tight stairs. We dismantle larger furniture, wrap everything in blankets and protect floors and doorways.
Stockbridge is further out than most of the places we cover, about 35 minutes from our Southampton base. We plan the day so the travel fits around your move, and give a clear quote up front.

Local know-how
Stockbridge has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.
Stockbridge's High Street is wide, but it's busy with visitors, so we plan where the van can stop safely.
The Test and its side channels run through the town, so some homes sit by the water with narrow access.
Stockbridge 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 Stockbridge, 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.
