Removals Ireland Pricing and Quotes
Removals Ireland offers clear, competitive pricing for full home moves and flexible man and van services across Ireland. Our pricing is built around your actual volume and requirements, so you only pay for the space and service you need, not for a one-size-fits-all package.
Transparent Pricing Model
Our removal company prices are designed to be simple to understand and easy to compare. Before any job begins, we confirm the estimated cost in writing so you know exactly what is included.
Key features of our pricing model include:
Clear structure: Charges based on load size, distance, and service level, with no hidden extras added on the day.
All-in rates: Quotes can include loading, transport, basic insurance, and unloading as standard.
Flexible options: Choose from a full removals team or a man and van service, depending on your budget and the size of your move.
Free quotes: Every quotation is free, with no obligation to book.
This approach means you can plan your move with confidence, whether you are relocating from a city apartment or a larger suburban home.
Load-Based and Cubic-Yard Rates
To keep removal company prices fair and consistent, we typically charge using load-based or cubic-yard rates. This is more accurate than simply charging per room, as it reflects how much space your items actually take in the vehicle.
Cubic-yard pricing: We estimate the total volume of your furniture, boxes, and belongings in cubic yards. A small studio move will often fit into a smaller volume band, while a fully furnished family home will use a larger band.
Load-based pricing: For man and van cost estimates, we often price by the portion of a van or truck you use. For example, quarter load, half load, three-quarter load, or full load options.
During your free quote, we will help you understand which band your items fall into. We can do this using a short video survey, a detailed list of items, or, for larger moves, an in-person assessment.
Removal Company Prices for Different Property Types
While every move is unique, it is helpful to see how our pricing approach works in real situations. Below are typical examples based on common property styles and busy locations in Ireland. These are illustrations only; your own quote will be tailored to your exact move.
Example 1: One-Bedroom City Apartment
Typical scenario: A one-bedroom apartment in a busy city centre area, such as an upper-floor unit with lift access and limited on-street parking. Items usually include a double bed, wardrobe, sofa, TV unit, a dining set, and 15 to 25 moving boxes.
How pricing works:
Volume: Often falls into a small to medium cubic-yard band, suitable for a man and van service or a smaller removal vehicle.
Access: We factor in time for navigating lifts, corridors, and parking restrictions.
Estimated service: One or two movers for loading and unloading, with journey time depending on the distance between addresses.
Result: A cost-effective man and van quote based on the measured cubic-yard volume and realistic loading time, ideal for young professionals or students moving within the city.
Example 2: Two-Bedroom Terraced House
Typical scenario: A two-bedroom terraced property in a busy residential area, with on-street parking and a moderate amount of furniture. Common contents include two beds, wardrobes, a sofa set, dining table and chairs, white goods, and 25 to 35 boxes.
How pricing works:
Volume: Usually falls into a medium load band, requiring a larger van or small truck.
Team size: Often two or three movers to complete loading and unloading efficiently.
Time: We estimate the time required for packing support if requested, as well as travel time between homes.
Result: A mid-range removal company price, clearly broken down into transport, labour, and any optional packing services so you can see where every euro goes.
Example 3: Three or Four-Bedroom Family Home
Typical scenario: A three or four-bedroom detached or semi-detached home with a driveway, garage items, garden furniture, and a full set of household contents. These moves are common for families relocating between suburbs or from town to town.
How pricing works:
Volume: Typically a large load, potentially requiring a full truck or multiple trips, depending on the distance and access.
Team size: Often three to four movers to handle heavier items such as large wardrobes, pianos, or American-style fridge freezers.
Services: Many families request packing, dismantling and reassembly of beds and wardrobes, and protective wrapping for fragile items.
Result: A detailed, all-in quotation that combines cubic-yard based pricing for the load with optional service add-ons. This allows you to adjust the level of service to match your budget and schedule.
Man and Van Cost for Smaller Moves
Our man and van service is ideal for smaller moves, partial loads, or quick jobs across town. This is a popular option for people moving between shared houses, students changing accommodation, or businesses relocating a small office.
Man and van cost is calculated based on:
Load size: The proportion of the van that your items occupy, measured in cubic yards or as a fraction of a full load.
Time: The estimated duration of loading, travel, and unloading.
Distance: Short local trips are priced differently from longer intercity journeys.
Because you are not paying for a full removals crew, man and van prices are often the most economical option when you have fewer items or are flexible with timing.
What Affects the Final Price
Several practical factors can influence your final removal company price or man and van cost. We will discuss these with you during your quote so there are no surprises on moving day.
Key factors include:
Access and parking: Long carries from the door to the vehicle, flights of stairs, or tight stairwells can add to loading time.
Distance travelled: Moves within the same town are priced differently from cross-country relocations.
Time of day or week: Peak periods, such as weekends or end-of-month dates, can be in higher demand.
Level of service: Options such as packing, unpacking, furniture assembly, and disposal of unwanted items are available for an additional fee.
All of these details are clearly shown on your written quotation.
Free, No-Obligation Quotes
Every customer receives a free, no-obligation quote before booking. There is no charge for surveys, advice, or revised estimates if your plans change.
How the quote process works:
Initial enquiry: Tell us about your current property, destination, and preferred moving date.
Volume assessment: We calculate your cubic-yard volume using a list of items, photos, video, or a visit for larger homes.
Tailored options: We provide one or more options, such as a full removal service and a man and van alternative, so you can compare.
Written confirmation: You receive a clear breakdown of costs, including what is and is not included, before you decide.
Our goal is to make removal company prices as straightforward as possible, so you can focus on planning your new home rather than worrying about unexpected costs.
