Behind the quote
What Changes the Price on This Route
Distance and crew time
At 102 miles, this is comfortably done in a single day. Fuel, the vehicle and the crew's hours scale with the road time, which is why the same house costs more to move on this route than across town.
Packing, access and dates
A full packing service typically adds £250–£600 depending on house size. Flights of stairs, long carries from the van, and parking restrictions at either end all add crew time. Fridays and month-ends book out first and price highest — a midweek, mid-month move is the easiest saving on this route.
Common questions
London to Leicester Moving FAQs
How much does it cost to move from London to Leicester?
Most moves from London to Leicester cost between £300–£750 for a 1-bed flat and £1,125–£2,000 for a 4-bed house. The 102-mile road journey is priced into every quote, so distance is already the biggest single factor on this route.
Can a London to Leicester move be done in one day?
Yes — the drive is around 2.2 hours, so a crew can load in the morning and deliver the same day. That keeps this route at the cheaper end per mile.
Does moving from Leicester to London cost the same?
Effectively yes — firms price the job (volume, distance, access), not the direction. The figures on this page apply both ways. One exception: if a firm has an empty van returning north, you can sometimes get a "backload" discount of 20–40% — always worth asking.
