Move & More was built on a simple idea: that people deserve to deal directly with the owners of the business they’re trusting with their home. When you contact us, you’ll speak with Clare or Adam, and that personal relationship continues throughout your move. For many of our customers moving into or out of Surrey, this reassurance is exactly what they’re looking for after experiences with larger, more impersonal firms.
Our team is fully insured, experienced, and brings protective materials and real care to every job. We’ve moved everything from compact studio flats to large family homes and know how to handle both efficiently.
Gatwick was originally a “goat farm” (derived from the Old English “Gat” and “wik”) before becoming an airport in the 1930s, and
it was the world’s first airport to have a direct mainline train station, opened in 1958. It also holds the title of the world’s busiest single-use runway.
