Student Moving Services in London

URemovals offers student moving services in London with vetted drivers and same-day availability. As of 2026, a single-room student move starts from £70, with student removals priced up front and the driver you pick. It covers the halls and London student accommodation near UCL, KCL, Imperial, Queen Mary and Goldsmiths, and the house shares in New Cross, Mile End, Camden and Brixton.

What does a student move in London cost?

A single room is one of the smallest jobs on the platform, so it is one of the cheapest. Student moving costs depend on the van size, the distance and the driver you pick, and you see the full quote before you book.

What size van for a student move?

One room does not need a Luton, and a bigger van just means paying for fresh air. Clearing a whole house with the flatmates is a proper house move, so use the London removals service instead.

Packing, furniture and what the driver does

• The driver moves what is ready to go, so box up your room first.
• Packing services and flat pack assembly are not included by default.
• Take down anything large, like a wardrobe or a bed, before your slot.
• Need a hand with furniture disassembly on the day? Tell your driver when you book.

The move-out catch

Here is what catches students out. Student blocks run one goods lift, a booked move-out slot, and your room is on the fourth floor. That is how a quick job turns into half a day. Run this moving checklist before you book:

• Your floor, and whether the lift needs booking.
• The move-out slot your block or landlord gives you.
• Where the van can stop, since red routes mean no waiting.
• Whether you are inside the Congestion Charge and ULEZ zone.
• Narrow doors and stairs in older house shares.

When everyone moves

Booking is flexible, with evening and weekend slots around your term dates and tenancy.

Student storage over summer

Heading home for the holidays and not keen on lugging everything twice? Book your move, drop your things into student storage for the break, then book again in September. Self storage near the main London campuses takes anything from a few boxes to a full room. International student moving works the same way when the gap between terms is long.

Student moving services across London

URemovals covers student removals and university relocation right across London, from the student accommodation near UCL, KCL, Imperial, Queen Mary, Goldsmiths, LSE, City and Westminster to the house shares in New Cross, Mile End, Camden, Brixton, Stratford and Holloway. Unlike the big London moving companies that quote by email, you see each driver's price, rating and completed jobs, read student moving reviews, and pick your own driver. Every driver passes a licence and insurance check before going live.

Student moving tips, checklists and guides

• Compare London removal quotes from a couple of drivers before you book.
• Book early for the end of June and mid September rush.
• Share a van with flatmates to split the cost.
• Move in term time, the cheapest window of the year.
