House Removals in Shepshed

Shepshed is a former hosiery town sitting just off the M1 at Junction 23, a few miles west of Loughborough. The town has a compact centre with some older terraced streets and a growing residential fringe of newer estates. Access on some of the older streets can be tight for larger vehicles, and we survey every Shepshed move to plan the right approach in advance.

Flexible Start Times to Suit Your Move

Moving day in Shepshed rarely runs to a perfect schedule. For fixed-price removals, especially where you are waiting on key release or completion, we tailor your start time around when you need to vacate your current property. This is discussed in advance so the day is planned around your timeline.

For hourly removals, charged in half-hour increments, we offer morning, midday, afternoon or evening starts. There is no hard limit on how long you can have the team. We work efficiently and safely to give you the best value for your move.

Your Dedicated Shepshed Removal Team

We cover Shepshed and the western LE12 area, including Hathern, and the villages between Shepshed and Loughborough. The Hathern Road and Garendon Road corridors are our most common routes in the area. For moves between Shepshed and Loughborough, or along the M1 into Leicester, we handle those regularly.

Shepshed’s location near J23 of the M1 also makes it a practical starting point for long-distance moves. If you are relocating out of the area entirely, we cover long-distance removals from Shepshed across the UK. The survey covers both addresses wherever they are.

Furniture Dismantling and Reassembly

Our removal vehicles carry the tools needed to dismantle and reassemble furniture as part of your move. Beds, wardrobes and larger items can be taken apart and rebuilt at your new home by the team.

If you know dismantling will be needed, let us know at the survey stage so we can plan the right team size and timings. There are a few things we cannot carry out, such as electrical disconnections or wall mounting. If you are unsure, ask at the survey and we will advise.

Optional Packing Services

Packing is usually the most time-consuming part of any house move. Our professional packing service is normally completed the day before your move. The team packs everything carefully, wraps fragile items, and labels each box by room. Full packing, part packing, and fragile-only packing are all available.

All packing materials are included in the service. Once you have unpacked at your new address, we return to collect boxes and materials for reuse or recycling. Unpacking services are available if you want support at the other end.

With Simply Moving handling the physical side of your Shepshed move, you can focus on the legal and practical steps. We also offer storage if there is a gap between leaving your current property and getting into the new one.
