Everything You Need to Know Before Moving Day

If you can’t find the exact answer you are looking for below, our local Northwich team is always just a phone call away.

We always recommend booking as soon as your moving date or exchange is provisionally agreed—typically 2 to 4 weeks in advance. However, we always do our absolute best to accommodate last-minute or chain-dependent moves across Northwich, Winsford, Middlewich, and Knutsford whenever availability allows.

Yes! We specialise in temporary storage solutions whilst moving. If your sale completes before your purchase, we can securely collect your belongings, hold them safely in our purpose-built facility, and deliver them straight to your new property when your keys are ready.

Based in Winnington, Northwich, we cover the entirety of Mid Cheshire. This includes major towns like Winsford, Middlewich, and Knutsford, alongside surrounding villages such as Hartford, Sandiway, Weaverham, and Tarporley.

Absolutely. All items handled and transported by Cheshire County Removals are covered by comprehensive goods-in-transit and public liability insurance, giving you total peace of mind throughout your relocation.

We offer flexible packing services tailored to your needs. You can choose our full household packing service where we handle everything from top to bottom, opt for our fragile-only packing service for glassware and antiques, or purchase DIY boxes and materials to pack yourself.

When items are heading into storage, proper packing is even more critical because they may be stacked or resting for a period. Use heavy-duty, double-walled boxes to prevent crushing, wrap fragile items securely in bubble wrap or packing paper, and clearly label every box with its contents and room. When you use our removal and storage service, our professional team handles the heavy lifting, careful loading, and safe transit directly into storage for you.

Every move and storage requirement is unique, so we tailor our pricing based on the volume of items, property access, distance travelled, and the duration of storage needed. We provide transparent, no-obligation quotes upfront with zero hidden fees—giving you a clear breakdown before you commit.

You can store almost all standard household furniture, personal effects, boxed items, and business stock or archive files. However, for safety and legal reasons, we cannot accept hazardous materials, flammable liquids, explosives, perishable foods, or illegal goods. If you have unique or heavy items like a piano or fine art, let us know in advance so we can advise on the best setup.
