Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move house in the UK?
The total cost of moving house in the UK typically ranges from £8,000 to £15,000+. This includes estate agent fees (1–3% + VAT if selling), stamp duty, conveyancing (£1,000–£2,000), removals (£500–£2,000), cleaning (£200–£500), mail redirection (£35–£66), and utility setup. HouseCheckup breaks down each cost.
How much do removal companies charge?
Removal costs in the UK depend on property size and distance. A 2-bed flat moving locally costs around £400–£700. A 4-bed house moving 100+ miles costs £1,200–£2,500. Packing services add £200–£500. Weekend and end-of-month moves are more expensive. HouseCheckup estimates removal costs based on your property size and move distance.
What hidden costs should I budget for when moving?
Common hidden costs include: storage (£50–£200/month if there is a gap between moves), professional cleaning (£200–£500), new furniture and curtains, utility connection fees, council tax overlap if you own both properties temporarily, and childcare or pet care on moving day. HouseCheckup's calculator includes these often-forgotten items.
