Removals Totnes – Professional Moving Services You Can Trust
Moving to or from Totnes is an exciting prospect. As one of Devon’s most vibrant and historic towns, it offers a unique lifestyle—but it also presents some of the most challenging logistics for a house move. Between the steep inclines of the High Street and the notoriously narrow medieval "Narrows," a successful move here requires more than just a van; it requires local expertise.
At Empire Removals South West, we specialize in removals Totnes residents can rely on. As a family-run business based nearby in Newton Abbot, we understand the intricacies of navigating South Devon's roads. Our mission is to take the weight off your shoulders, providing a professional, friendly, and completely transparent service that ensures your belongings arrive safely at your new front door.
Why Choose Empire Removals for Your Totnes Move?
When you are comparing removal companies, it’s easy to get lost in generic quotes from national firms. However, Totnes is a town that demands a personal touch and specific equipment. Here is why locals choose us:
Local Knowledge: We know Totnes inside and out. We understand which areas require smaller vehicles and where parking permits or specific timings are essential to avoid blocking narrow thoroughfares.
The Right Fleet: Unlike companies that turn up in massive HGVs that can’t clear the historic arches or tight corners of Totnes, we operate a fleet of modern 3.5-tonne Luton vans. These are perfectly sized to navigate limited access roads while still offering ample space for your household goods.
No Agency Staff: We believe in accountability. Every member of our team is a permanent, uniformed, and DBS-checked professional. We don’t use agency workers, ensuring that the people in your home are experienced and care about our company’s reputation.
Transparent Pricing: There is nothing worse than "hidden extras" on move day. We provide a clear, written quote with no hidden costs. What we quote is what you pay.
If you are looking for a firm that combines professional standards with the care of a local family business, we are the team for you. We are proud to be a leading choice for removals in Newton Abbot and across the wider South Hams area.
Our House Removals Services Tailored for Totnes Homes
Whether you are moving into a contemporary apartment by the River Dart or a characterful cottage in the heart of the town, our house removals service is designed to be flexible. We know that no two moves are the same, so we tailor our approach to fit your specific needs and budget.
Full & Part Removals
From moving a single heavy item to relocating a five-bedroom family estate, we handle it all. We offer full-service removals where we take care of everything, or part-removals for those who just need help with the "big stuff."

Protection for Your Valuables
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. Every move includes the use of:
Professional mattress and sofa covers.
Protective floor runners to keep your carpets clean.
Hanging wardrobe cartons to keep your clothes crease-free.
FREE boxes and tape to ensure you have the right materials to pack securely.

How We Ensure a Stress-Free Removals Process in Totnes
The key to a stress-free move is preparation. At Empire Removals South West, we follow a tried-and-tested process to ensure nothing is left to chance:
The Free Survey: We start with a free, no-obligation survey of your property. This allows us to assess the volume of items, check the access points (especially important in Totnes!), and discuss any fragile or high-value items that require special care.
The Tailored Plan: We don't just "show up." We create a move-day plan that accounts for everything from parking to the order of loading.
Careful Execution: On the day, our punctual and friendly team arrives ready to work. We use professional equipment and GPS-tracked vehicles to ensure your items are handled with dignity and respect.
