Packing is more than getting the lids shut. It is the chance to organise a move before the lifting begins. Tell Vanatics which rooms or items you want help with.

01 · Make room for what’s next

Choose the scope of the packing

Decide whether you want help throughout the home or with selected belongings. A kitchen, bookshelves and a cupboard of fragile pieces each call for a different conversation. Make a list of what you plan to pack yourself and what you would like included. Ask about the materials and packing arrangements when getting your quote, so you know which preparations are yours and which have been agreed with us.

Make boxes useful at the other end

Write a destination room on more than one side of a box and add a brief note about its contents. Keep heavy items in manageable loads. Put the things you will need first together and carry personal essentials separately. If a box contains fragile pieces, identify them clearly and mention anything that needs special consideration before the packing plan is settled.

“What an excellent service. Vitalii and his helper helped me do a house move and they handled my belongings with such care that I felt an ease I don’t usually feel when I’m moving. They were very efficient, friendly and professional.”— Nabiirah Kaseruuzi, Google review

Think about furniture before moving day

Empty storage furniture where the contents could shift and check which larger pieces can come apart. Keep fixings in a labelled bag linked to the relevant furniture. Vanatics also lists dismantling and reassembly among its services; discuss which items need it. Do not take apart something you are unsure how to rebuild just to make it smaller. A conversation beforehand is more useful than a last-minute guess.

Ready for the load.

Luton vans with tail-lifts (about 20 m³) and Sprinter. Larger moves can use 7.5t and 10t trucks via partners. Blankets, straps, trolleys and tools help the team handle the practical work.

Vitalii Dadu runs Vanatics. The owner’s on the job. Amy confirms bookings by call or WhatsApp; photos or a video walkthrough help clarify your move.

Plan the extras.

Stairs without a lift add £18 inc VAT per floor, per property. Packing for 2 packers and dismantling are each £108/hr inc VAT. Long carries over about 25 m may add time. Arrange parking permits; road charges pass through at cost.

Goods in Transit up to £25,000 and Public Liability cover. Weekday, weekend and evening moves. We confirm the final price before you book.

What we don’t move

Hazardous or flammable materials, illegal items, pets and unsealed liquids. We do not disconnect or plumb appliances. Have these ready before arrival, and tell us about heavy or special items when requesting your quote so we can discuss the practical arrangements.
