Are you fully insured?

Yes — we are fully insured for removals and goods in transit. Your belongings are in safe hands from start to finish.

Can you handle large or awkward items?

Absolutely. Our experienced team is trained in safely handling heavy, bulky, and fragile items. We’ve moved everything from American-style fridge freezers to antique wardrobes.

We recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks in advance to guarantee your preferred date. However, we regularly accommodate urgent and short-notice moves.

How much does a removal company cost?

It’s hard to give a specific range for price without knowing the details of your move. That’s why we really encourage you to get in touch with us so we can talk through your needs and come up with a tailored quote that’s completely free and no-obligation.

What if there are delays with my new home?

No problem, these things happen. We can hold your belongings in our secure storage until you’re ready to move in.

Do you provide packing materials or boxes?

Yes — we provide free boxes and tape with every move, and can also supply packing materials like bubble wrap, sofa covers, and wardrobe cartons. We also offer full or partial packing services if you'd like us to handle everything.

Can you move me on evenings or weekends?

We offer out-of-hours removals and Saturday bookings when needed. Whether it’s an office move or a tight schedule, we’ll do our best to accommodate your timing.

Do you dismantle and reassemble furniture?

Yes - we’re happy to dismantle and reassemble beds, wardrobes, tables, and other furniture. We bring the right tools and handle everything with care.

Do you cover long-distance moves to Devon from London or the south east?

Yes. We regularly carry out removals to Devon from London, Surrey, Essex, and Kent. We handle the full move ourselves, from loading at your current property through to delivery and unloading at your new Devon address.

How do I get a quote for a removal to Devon?

You can call us or fill in our online quote form. We will ask about your current address, your new Devon address, the size of your move, and your preferred moving date. We then come back with clear pricing and no hidden costs.

Do you offer packing as part of a removal to Devon?

Yes. We include free boxes and tape with every move. We also offer a full packing service if you want us to prepare everything before the move day. Wardrobe cartons, bubble wrap, and other packing materials are also available.

Can you store our belongings in Devon if we need to wait for our completion date?

Yes. We have secure, dry storage in Newton Abbot and Torbay. This is useful if there is a gap between your move-out date and your move-in date, or if your chain is delayed. We can store your items for a short time or a longer period depending on what you need.

Will your vans fit on narrow Devon lanes and tight driveways?

Yes. We use 3.5-tonne Luton vans, which are well-sized for Devon's narrower roads and village streets. If access is particularly tight at your new property, let us know during your quote and we will plan the right approach.

Do you use agency staff for your moves?

No. All of our team members are employed directly by us. We are a family-run business and we do not use agency workers. Every person on your move is experienced, uniformed, and DBS-checked.

Removals to Devon | Long-Distance Moves

Empire Removals South West handles removals to Devon from across the UK. We are a Newton Abbot based, family-run removals company, and our own staff carry out every move, with no brokers and no agency workers. If you are relocating into the county from London, Surrey, Essex, Kent or further afield, this page explains how we do it and how to get a quote.

Who Our Removals to Devon Service Is For

This page is for people moving into Devon from another part of the UK, whether you are leaving the city, relocating to the coast, or moving for work or family. We handle the full journey from your current door to your new Devon address. We are not a booking platform or a national broker. We are a Devon based team and we carry out every move ourselves.

Areas We Collect From

We regularly travel to collect from:

London (all boroughs)
Surrey
Essex
Kent

If you are somewhere else in England and moving into Devon, call us on 01626 211469 and we will confirm whether we cover your route.

House Removals to Devon

We handle the full move: loading, transit, and unloading at your Devon address. Furniture dismantling and reassembly is included at both ends, for beds, wardrobes, and anything that needs to come apart to fit through the door. We scale the van and crew to the size of the move, and we use vans suited to Devon's narrower lanes and village streets. Free boxes and packing tape come with every removal.

Packing Help

Free boxes and tape come with every move. We also supply wardrobe cartons, bubble wrap and mattress covers if you need them. You can choose how much packing support you want:

Full pack: our team works through every room, labelling boxes by room so unpacking at the Devon end is straightforward.
Partial pack: you handle most rooms and we focus on fragile items, kitchen contents, or anything bulky.
Materials only: we supply what you need and you pack at your own pace.

For a long-distance move it is worth considering our packing for fragile items, as your belongings are in the van for a longer journey.

Storage When Dates Do Not Align

Completion dates and move-in dates do not always match. If you complete on your sale before you can access your Devon property, we can collect on completion day, hold your belongings at our secure Newton Abbot facility, and redeliver once you have the keys. Storage also helps if your chain has delayed, you are mid-renovation, or you are downsizing and need time to decide what to keep.

Our facility has gated access and CCTV, storage insurance is included, and it is secure and dry, with both container storage and climate-controlled internal rooms for more fragile items. Storage is available short-term or long-term, and when it is part of your move we quote the whole job together: removal, storage period, and redelivery as one clear price.

What Changes the Quote

Every long-distance move is assessed individually. The main factors that affect your price:

Volume of belongings (number of rooms, large items, loft or garage contents)
Collection address and access (parking, floor level, lift availability)
Devon destination and access (rural lane, narrow street, restricted parking)
Whether you need packing, storage, or both
Your moving date and any flexibility on timing

We do not publish fixed prices because no two moves are the same. A free survey, in person or by video call, gives us what we need to come back with clear pricing.

How the Process Works

Get in touch. Call 01626 211469 or fill in the contact form with your collection address, your Devon destination, how many rooms, and your preferred date.
Free survey. We carry out a no-obligation survey, in person or by video call, to assess volume and any access points that need planning.
Clear quote. We come back with a fixed price covering the full move.
Confirm your booking. Once you are happy, we confirm the date and your crew.
Moving day. Our team loads at your collection address and delivers to your Devon property, reassembling furniture and placing boxes in the right rooms.

What to Tell Us Before the Quote

The more detail you give us upfront, the faster we can come back with accurate pricing. It helps to know:

Your collection postcode and the Devon postcode you are moving to
Number of bedrooms and whether you have a loft, garage, or outbuildings to include
Any large or awkward items (pianos, American-style fridges, large sofas)
Whether you need packing, storage, or both
Your preferred moving date and any dates that do not work
Any access restrictions at either end (no parking, narrow road, steps, no lift)
