Our Process

The Dimond Movers Moving Process

Step 1

Tell Us the Origin, Destination and Dates

Postcodes, property size, completion / move dates and any awkward access (lift, stairs, narrow access, parking restrictions). WhatsApp or email a few photos of the larger items and we'll quote — usually within a few hours.

Step 2

Free Fixed Quote — Same-Day or Split-Day

We quote both same-day and split-day options where relevant, so you choose. No deposit needed to confirm a date. Fixed in writing — no hidden extras.

Step 3

Pre-Pack the Day Before (Optional)

On long-distance routes we often pre-pack the day before to start the drive earlier. Half-pack / full-pack quoted as a separate line item — your choice.

Step 4

Load, Drive, Deliver

Two or three-person crew, Luton or 7.5t for 2-3 bed, 18t for 4-5 bed. Same-day or overnight split based on distance and property size. Full Goods in Transit and Public Liability insurance throughout.

The Reading → Leeds route at a glance

Distance: 218 miles. Typical drive: 4h – 4h 45m. Motorways: M4 → M40 → M42 → M1. Recommended crew/vehicle: 7.5t Luton for 2-3 bed; 18t for 4-bed; 3-person crew on long-haul.

Indicative pricing: £1,200 – £2,050 for a 3-bed.

Split-day common; 2-3 bed achievable same day with early load.

The route: M4 → M40 → M1

M4 east, M40 north from J1A all the way to Birmingham, M42, M6 north then onto the M1 at Catthorpe (J19) heading north to Leeds J43. 218 miles, 4h to 4h 45m at Luton speed.

We avoid the M1 J28-J34 (Nottingham/Sheffield) in evening peak — that's the slowest stretch.

Leeds destinations

Headingley (LS6) and Hyde Park (LS6) for university families, Roundhay (LS8) and Chapel Allerton (LS7) for upscale residential, Horsforth (LS18) and Wetherby (LS22) for family homes, city-centre apartments at Wellington Place and Granary Wharf.

Packing options for a long-distance Leeds move

Full pack: we bring all materials and pack everything room by room the day before the drive. Most reliable for breakables on a long-distance route.

Half pack: we pack the kitchen, breakables and artwork; you pack the soft items (clothes, bedding, books). Mid-cost option.

Self-pack: you pack everything; we load, drive, deliver and unload. Lowest cost — works well if you have time and a steady pack-down over 1-2 weeks.

Storage between Reading sale and Leeds completion

Long-distance moves frequently catch a chain delay — the Reading sale completes but the Leeds purchase slips by a day or a week. Storage at our Crowmarsh Gifford depot bridges the gap from £25/week per crate, or as a flat storage-and-removals quote combining collection, storage and final delivery into one fixed price.

Most Reading-to-Leeds customers add storage as a "just in case" line in the quote — released if not needed.
