Obtain Furniture Shipping Estimates for Your London Relocation


When it comes to furniture transportation in London, Shiply has you covered. With numerous furniture shippers vying for your business, you can anticipate saving up to 75% on regular prices. Our platform enables shippers to discover additional work along their current routes, minimizing waste & offering you significantly reduced rates.


For instance, if a shipper is already transporting items from London to Manchester, they may be willing to provide a discounted price for your furniture delivery to avoid driving back to London with an empty van. Whether you're relocating a single piece of furniture within the UK or multiple items to Europe and beyond, Shiply can assist.


To begin, simply complete a brief form describing your furniture shipping requirements & wait for the estimates to arrive in your inbox. Including photographs of the furniture can result in 34% cheaper estimates, as it helps removal companies better understand your needs.

Once you've submitted your request, relax & let Shiply handle the hard work. Within 24 hours, you'll receive competitive estimates from furniture shipping companies in a reverse auction format, driving down prices for you. Most of our transport providers offer nationwide furniture shipping services, but we also have companies that operate internationally.

After each transaction, customers leave feedback, incentivizing transport providers to maintain a high standard of service. With millions of satisfied users & a 9.0/10 rating on Trustpilot, Shiply is your go-to platform for furniture shipping in London & beyond.


When evaluating estimates, pay attention to the transport provider's feedback score & comments from previous customers. Don't hesitate to ask questions about their availability & once you've agreed on dates and are satisfied with their profile, click "accept quote" to book your chosen provider.


Ready Your Furniture for Transport


Before your furniture collection, the transporter will give you a courtesy call to confirm their expected arrival time. To ensure a smooth process, verify if they will provide packaging materials like blankets or bubble wrap to safeguard your furniture during transit. If not, take the time to package and protect your items yourself.


Check your home insurance policy, as many cover furniture in transit, & be sure to take photos of your furniture before collection as documentation in case of any damage. Unlike larger companies, Shiply's furniture shipping services are typically provided by smaller, family-owned firms that offer more flexibility in terms of collection & delivery times.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?

If you have not yet accepted a quote then you are able to change the address of your listing.
