Your local movers
Twyford is a village about three miles south of Winchester, on the left bank of the River Itchen and close to the M3 and Twyford Down. Its name means "two fords", and it appears in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Tuiforde, with a church and six watermills.
The village has St Mary's Church and primary school, a doctor's surgery, shops and pubs, and three parks, with large areas of protected water meadow around it. Shawford Park, a Grade II* listed country house from 1685, is in the parish too.
Homes range from period cottages to family houses and larger properties. Older homes can mean low beams and tight stairs, so we dismantle larger furniture and wrap everything carefully.
Twyford sits right by the M3, so moves north to Winchester, Basingstoke and London, or south to Eastleigh and Southampton, are quick to get going.

Local know-how
Twyford has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.
Twyford is right beside the M3 and Twyford Down, so longer moves get on the motorway in minutes.
The village sits by the River Itchen and its protected water meadows, with some narrow lanes near the river.
Twyford 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 Twyford, 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.
