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.

"I needed someone to pick up a sofa for me and Robert was brilliant from start to finish. Friendly on Wottsapp . The day before he messaged just to make sure everything was ok. He messaged me the morning of pick up & let me know what time they would be arriving. They were great getting the sofa downstairs and taking it to the flat. Nothing was too much trouble. I will definitely be using these guys again. Thanks to you both. Lisa Osborne"
