Student moving boxes outside university halls

Between Royal Holloway (Egham, TW20) and the University of Reading (Whiteknights, RG6), our Burnham HQ handles 40+ student moves every summer. Here's how to avoid the peak-week price surge.

The student-move calendar

  • Last 2 weeks of June — contract-end surge, 80% capacity 3 weeks ahead
  • First week of September — move-in surge, 90% capacity 2 weeks ahead
  • February reading week — some mid-year moves (cheapest slots)

Van-share model

If you're moving 1 bedroom of stuff from Royal Holloway to West London, we can put you in a shared luton with 2 other students going the same direction. Cost: £180–£260 instead of £380 solo.

Flatpack dismantle included

Our crews bring hex keys and dismantle your IKEA MALM, PAX and KALLAX units in 20 minutes. Reassembled at destination. No extra charge.
