Whatever You're Moving, Wherever It's Going
A single team for every kind of move. Local house removals, full office relocations, overseas shipping, long-term storage – all under one roof, all held to the same standard.
Home Removals
From a Studio Flat, two-bed terrace to a six-bed country house – our crew treats every item like it belongs to them.
Office Removals
Monday to Friday, or Weekend and out-of-hours moves that keep your Monday morning running on schedule.
International Removals
Door-to-door moves to the USA, Australia, New Zealand, and beyond. We handle the customs paperwork so you don’t have to.
European Removals
Regular road freight across Europe with specialist routes to Scandinavia. Dedicated vehicles or shared loads – your call.
Packing Services
Full packing, part packing, or just the fragile things you’d rather not risk. Professional materials, trained hands.
Secure Storage
Over 1,000 containers at our Godstone depot. CCTV, Red Care alarm, security patrols – and no minimum stay.
Your Home, Handled Like Our Own
Every picture frame wrapped. Every floorboard protected. Every wardrobe moved without a scratch. Whether you’re crossing Croydon or heading out to the Surrey hills, our uniformed crew brings the same level of attention – because the things that matter most to you should matter just as much to the people carrying them.
The Ones You'll Recommend.
We’re a family business – The Almandras family have been running Sandersteads since before most removal companies were a line in a business plan. That experience shows in how we quote, how we move, and how we solve problems on the day.

Don't Take Our Word for It
100+ reviews on Google – from people who’ve been through it with us.
Closer Than You Think
Our depot sits just off the M25 at Godstone, which puts us within easy reach of Surrey, South London, Kent, and the Home Counties. If you can see it on the map below, we’ve probably already moved someone there.
From Surrey to Sydney. And Everywhere Between.
Moving countries is a different kind of challenge. Customs regulations, shipping timelines, insurance that actually holds up at the other end – it takes a team that’s done this hundreds of times before.
We manage every detail from your front door here to your front door there, whether that’s across the Channel or on the other side of the world.
How far ahead should I book my move?
Four to six weeks is ideal, particularly if you’re moving between May and September or over a bank holiday weekend. But if your timeline is tighter than that, call us – we’ll always try to find a way to make it work.
How secure is the storage facility, and can I get to my things?
Very. Our Godstone depot runs 24/7 CCTV, a Red Care alarm system, and regular patrols by a local security firm. If you need access to your container, just call ahead during business hours and we’ll have it ready for you when you arrive.
What does an overseas move actually involve, and how long does it take?
A: We take care of professional packing, loading, shipping, customs documentation, and delivery at the other end. Transit times vary – around 6 to 10 weeks by sea to Australia or the USA, and 1 to 2 weeks for European road freight. We’ll map out the full timeline when we quote so there are no grey areas.
Can I pack some things myself and have you do the rest?
Absolutely. Plenty of people handle the everyday items and hand us the fragile, awkward, or valuable stuff. We offer full packing, part packing, or just materials and advice if you’d rather do the lot yourself. Whatever suits you.
What if my completion date gets pushed back at the last minute?
It happens more often than you’d think, and we’re well used to it. We’ll rearrange your moving date wherever we can, and if you need somewhere to store everything while the chain sorts itself out, our Godstone facility is five minutes away and ready to go.
Is there a minimum storage period, and how is it priced?
No fixed minimum. You can store with us for a few days or a few years – it’s entirely up to you. Pricing depends on the volume you’re storing and how long you need it, so the best thing to do is get in touch and we’ll give you a quote based on what you actually need.
The Questions Everyone Asks
Moving throws up a lot of unknowns. We’d rather you had straight answers before you pick up the phone – so here are the things we get asked most, answered honestly.
