Real UK packing service pricing for 2026 full pack, part pack and supply only and how each option changes your move day cost and stress.
Full pack, part pack or supply only
A UK packing service comes in three flavours. Full pack: the company packs everything, you arrive at the new property to boxes labelled by room. Part pack: the company packs the kitchen and fragile items, you handle books and clothes. Supply only: boxes, paper and tape delivered to your door, you do the work.

Realistic UK prices from a properly insured removals company.
- Full pack, 1 bed flat: £180 to £320
- Full pack, 2 bed house: £280 to £550
- Full pack, 3 bed house: £450 to £800
- Full pack, 4 to 5 bed home: £700 to £1,500
- Part pack (kitchen and fragile only): £150 to £400
- Supply only materials, average home: £80 to £220
What changes the price
The volume of fragile content is the biggest variable. A house with a large china collection, art, mirrors and a piano costs significantly more than a house of the same size with mostly clothes, books and flat pack furniture.
Is professional packing worth it
For anyone short on time, moving over 50 miles, with children under 5, or with valuable fragile contents the answer is yes. The cost is a fraction of what one accidentally broken antique costs to replace.
