About BH3 — coverage and access
BH3 is two very different places sharing a postcode. Talbot Woods and Meyrick Park are large Edwardian and inter-war houses on wide tree-lined avenues — proper family removals, often with a loft and garage to deal with as well. Talbot Village, a mile north, is Bournemouth University and AECC territory: purpose-built halls, shared houses and a September and June rhythm that we plan our diary around. Neighbouring Winton, just over the BH9 line, is where a lot of the same student traffic ends up — see the Winton page if that is where you are heading.
Two and a half miles from base, so no travel charge on either half of BH3. The Talbot Woods streets are genuinely easy — long driveways, room to turn a Luton, and a carry measured in feet rather than flights. Talbot Village is the opposite on move-in weekends: the halls have designated unloading bays that fill by nine, and the one-way system around the campus adds time if you arrive late. For anything student-related here we start early or go late afternoon, and we will tell you which slot is left when you call rather than promising one that has gone.

"Robert is really nice and helpful. I called him the day before the move, and he was very accommodating. His prices are also really fair. Highly recommend!"
"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."
