Shop single items

Moving boxes and packing materials

Order only what you need, or add extra items to a bundle. All single-item prices include VAT. Click a photo to see it larger.

Small moving box

£3.60

inc. VAT

Strong double-walled cardboard. The smaller size keeps weight manageable and prevents overpacking, so boxes are easier to lift, carry up stairs and stack safely in the van.

Best for: books, documents, files, vinyl, CDs, tinned food, tools, crockery, utensils and small ornaments.

Large moving box

£4.80

inc. VAT

Strong double-walled cardboard. Spacious enough for bulkier items, but designed to stay a manageable weight when packed correctly.

Best for: clothes, towels, bedding, duvets, pillows, blankets, coats, soft toys, lampshades and dry pantry goods in sealed packets.

Wardrobe box with rail

£15

inc. VAT

A full-height box with a hanging rail. Clothes go straight from your wardrobe into the box and arrive crease-free, ready to rehang.

Best for: suits, dresses, coats and any hanging clothes you do not want folded.

Packing tape

£2.50

inc. VAT

Heavy-duty brown PVC tape. Tape the top and bottom of every box in an H-pattern across the seam and edges, so the box stays rigid when stacked and the base cannot give way.

Bubble wrap

£10

inc. VAT

For wrapping fragile items one by one before boxing. Use several layers around glassware, crockery, ornaments and ceramics.

Kitchen packing paper

£10

inc. VAT

Clean and ink-free, safe for wrapping crockery, glassware and kitchen items directly. Also works as box lining and cushioning between layers.

Delivery is a flat £30 across Greater London, plus £18 inside the Congestion Charge zone. Order by phone on 0800 080 7476 or on WhatsApp.

Packing tips

How to pack efficiently

These tips apply whether you are packing yourself or getting ready for our team.

Declutter before packing

Donate, sell or clear out what you no longer need before you pack. Less to pack, less to move and a fresh start in your new home.

Start early, one room at a time

Begin well before your move date and pack one room at a time. It is easier to manage, you are less likely to leave things out, and you can declutter as you go.

Use the right box for the right items

Small boxes for heavy items such as books, crockery and tools. Large boxes for light, bulky items such as bedding and duvets. Heavy items in large boxes are hard to lift and can make the base give way.

Use clothing and linen as padding

Towels, blankets and soft clothing can wrap and cushion fragile items and fill gaps in boxes, saving bubble wrap and space in the van.

Tape every box properly

Tape the top and bottom of every box with the H-tape method: one strip across the centre seam and one along each edge, so the box stays rigid when stacked.

Label by room and general contents

Mark each box with the room and what is inside, for example “Kitchen, plates and glasses”. That is enough for the team to put every box in the right room.

Use suitcases and bags

Fill suitcases with clothes, linen and other soft items. They hold a lot, protect delicate fabrics and mean fewer boxes.

Keep furniture fixings together

When furniture is dismantled, put the screws and fixings in a labelled zip-lock bag and tape it to the matching piece, so nothing goes missing and reassembly is simple.

Pack electronics with care

Use the original boxes if you still have them. Otherwise wrap screens and delicate parts in bubble wrap and padding.

Pack an essentials box last

Keep a first-night box with the kettle, mugs, toiletries, a change of clothes, chargers and important documents. Load it last so it comes off the van first.

Testimonials

What our customers say

Real moves, in their own words, from customers across London.

★★★★★

Home move with packing materials

Moved from Hayes to Ruislip beginning of February with Best London Removals, they were superb, packed the lorry expertly with wrapping on the soft furniture and good boxes supplied for the packing. 4 screws off my dining table were missing, the removal man found them in his van and returned them insisting on fitting them back on the table. Very professional service, would recommend this company to anyone going through the trauma of moving house.

MccarthyRemoval Reviews, February 2017

★★★★★

Flat move with packing service

I was very pleased with the service. The staff members I dealt with were polite and professional. They came to my apartment on time for the estimation. They helped to arrange the parking suspension. The price was also fair. … I ordered a packing service, and the quality was as high as that of a company I used last year but the Best Removals price was lower. They delivered the items on time.

DonalRemoval Reviews, January 2014

★★★★★

Long-distance move, packed and wrapped

Best London Removals – very aptly named! Very reasonably priced, very efficient and professional service and very well organised, 5 star removal job! As it was a fairly long distance removal (in terms of travelling time) Ivelin’s team came the day before to pack up the first removal lorry then came very early the next morning to pack up the other one. They carefully dismantled any furniture that needed it, beds and wardrobes, and carefully wrapped up our sofas in protective coverings so that they weren’t damaged in transit. … They even safely moved our fish tank with the fish still in it and all of the fish are still alive and well!
