How long does a Chester-le-Street to London removal take?

The drive is roughly 4.5 hours for 239 miles. Most single-load jobs finish inside one working day — we leave Chester-le-Street early so the London unload happens in daylight.

Do you cover London directly, or hand off to another firm?

We drive the whole way ourselves. The crew that loads at your Chester-le-Street address is the same crew that unloads at London, so nothing gets transferred between vans.

Do you accept card payment on the day?

Yes, all common cards and bank transfer. Most Chester-le-Street customers settle by transfer once the DH2 pickup is loaded so there is nothing to sort on arrival.
