Lexden is one of Colchester's most sought-after suburbs, a leafy, historic area to the west of the centre with roots going back to Roman Camulodunum. It's known for large Victorian and Edwardian villas on tree-lined roads, and moving here often means big period homes and mature, narrow streets to plan. From a village-edge cottage to a grand villa, we bring the van and team to match.
We run our own vans and movers, and about nine in ten Lexden jobs are done by our own team. The rest go to partner crews we've trained and worked with for over ten years, never to whoever bids lowest on a booking site. Either way, you deal with us and we stay responsible for the job.

Lexden is largely made up of substantial period homes. There are big Victorian and Edwardian villas along Lexden Road and the roads off it, some grand detached houses, and older cottages around the former village core. The homes are large, so many Lexden moves are two-mover jobs.
We cover the whole of Lexden, from Lexden Park and the tumulus to the villas along Lexden Road and the streets towards Prettygate. The big houses mean bigger loads, so we bring the right size van and team, and we handle longer moves out of Lexden to London and across the UK at a fixed written price.
Lexden's large period homes and mature, leafy streets give it a character a good man and van plans for.
The big villas along Lexden Road have plenty to move, so we bring a two-mover team and the right size van for a full day's work.
Some Lexden roads are older and narrower, with mature trees and on-street parking, so we plan the nearest loading spot and timing.
Period villas often have several floors, narrow hallways and grand staircases, so we plan the route through the house and protect what we carry.
Around the old Lexden village core, cottages have tighter frontages, so we sort the loading point before the day.
Full home moves, wrapped, loaded and moved as one job.
A van and a mover by the hour for single items and part loads.
Flats and upper floors, with the stairs and access planned in.
Single items and marketplace pickups brought to your door.
Comparing removal companies in Lexden? It is worth checking the reviews are recent, the quote is in writing, and the firm runs its own vans rather than passing your job on. We tick all three, and we are glad to be measured against other removal companies in Lexden.
