A small house, moving small numbers of houses well.

Bellereaux runs out of a small studio off Charlotte Street, in London. Five people. A handful of long-tenure crew. A workshop in Essex where the export-grade crating gets built when a piece needs it.

We do not run a national fleet and we do not move people every weekend. We take on the moves we can do well — usually fewer than fifty a year — and we put the same partner on the job from the first conversation to the last delivery. Continuity costs more on the spreadsheet and saves more in the actual move.

We chose Denmark, Norway, and Finland on purpose. They share a road grammar (Eurotunnel to Calais, then a long northbound run, often via a Kiel ferry); they share a paperwork rhythm post-Brexit; and the people moving there share a quietness about the move itself. The work suits us.

We do not do same-day quotes. We do not do hourly rates. We do not pretend a four-bedroom move into a Bergen hillside is the same shape of job as a flat-pack run to Birmingham. If the brief is wrong for us, we will say so. There are excellent firms for everything else, and we will name them.
