About BH1 — coverage and access
BH1 is the town-centre postcode: Old Christchurch Road and the Triangle at its heart, Lansdowne and the station to the north-east, East Cliff running down to the seafront, and Springbourne and Boscombe West on the Christchurch Road corridor. It is the densest part of our patch and the most flat-heavy — converted Victorian houses, purpose-built blocks and a lot of student and HMO turnover around Lansdowne. If your move is in the Boscombe end, the Boscombe page is the more useful read; for the wider town, see Bournemouth.
We are based on Christchurch Road inside BH1, so this is the one postcode where we are usually minutes away rather than a drive — same-day is realistic here even on short notice, and there is no travel charge at all. The thing that actually decides the price in BH1 is not distance but access: loading bays on Old Christchurch Road are time-limited, the East Cliff blocks often mean a lift and a long carry from the nearest legal stopping point, and much of Lansdowne is resident-permit only. Tell us the street and the floor when you call and we will tell you honestly whether it is a one-hour job or a three-hour one before you commit.

"Robert moved some items of furniture locally, arrived exactly on time, polite and friendly, recommended"
"Rob helped me transport a sofa from Bournemouth to Barton. He was very responsive, friendly and fairly priced. I would be very happy to use his services again 😊"
"Booked but didn’t turn up on moving day no contact then or since , very disappointed as he assured me he wasn’t the type to not turn up"
"Even after confirming and reminding for my daughters move who is a student there was no show. Robert never showed up nor picked up my call and no reply to any messages. Ridiculously bad experience as we were stuck in a very bad situation of finding another source for the pick up and deliver her stuff . Not a trustworthy deal . I would atleast have a reason for not showing up at all and ignoring me . Be aware and thanks Robert for all the trouble my daughter has to face."
"Booked in and didn't turn up on moving day, jokers"
