Removals in Brighton (Calm, Sorted House & Office Moves)
We're Bearded Bros, a Brighton removals firm based off Springfield Road in BN1. We've been moving people across the city, the wider Sussex area and the rest of the UK since 2013, and we've handled over 10,000 moves in the last five years. Our crew is trained in-house, our vans and trucks are kept maintained, and most of the team has been with us long enough to know the difference between a Kemptown loading window and a Hove side-street that won't take a Luton.
Most of our work comes through word of mouth and reviews. The job is to get you out of one place and into another without the drama. That's what "no fuss" actually means to us, and it's what our customers keep saying back to us.
Brighton House Removals
If you're moving house in Brighton, Hove or anywhere across East and West Sussex, we can run the whole job for you. That covers a single bed in a campervan to a four-bed family home with garage clear-out, garden furniture and a shed full of bikes. We do full pack-and-move services if you want to hand the boxing up to us — see our packing services page for full pack, part pack and DIY options — and we can dismantle and reassemble furniture on the day so the sofa actually fits round your new staircase. Moving an office or business premises instead? Our office removals in Brighton page covers that separately.
The Brighton terraces have a personality of their own. Steep hallways in Hanover, narrow Regency staircases in Kemptown, off-street parking that disappears the moment you need it in Seven Dials. We plan around all of that. If we know there's a controlled parking zone or a permit needed, we'll flag it during the quote so the day itself runs cleanly.
We carry goods in transit insurance on every job, so your belongings are covered from the moment we load the van to the moment we set the last box down at the new address. If you need furniture dismantled and reassembled on the day, tell us at the quote stage and we'll factor it into the crew time.
For the full breakdown of how a house move works with us, see our house removals Brighton page.
Parking Suspensions and Permit Zones in Brighton
Brighton and Hove City Council manages a network of controlled parking zones across the city. If your collection or delivery address sits in a permit zone, you will usually need a parking suspension so the crew has safe, legal access to the kerbside. We flag this at the quote stage and can advise on the process: applications go through the council's online system, suspensions typically need at least five working days' notice, and the fee varies by zone and duration.
The streets where this comes up most often for us are the terraces in Hanover, the roads off St James's Street in Kemptown, the residential streets running off Western Road in Seven Dials, and the narrow lanes around the North Laine. If you're not sure whether your street needs a suspension, ask us when you request your quote and we'll check. Our parking for removals in Brighton and Hove guide sets out the full process, costs and timings.
Our Accreditations
Bearded Bros holds eight accreditations, including membership of the British Association of Removers (BAR) and the BAR Advance Payment Guarantee, Trading Standards approval through the CTSI Code of Practice, the Furniture and Home Improvement Ombudsman (FHIO), Move Assured, Checkatrade, and the Self Storage Association UK. We are also a Brighton and Hove Living Wage employer. The full list with what each one means for your move is on our accreditations page.
Brighton Office Removals
Office moves in Brighton bring a different set of headaches: kit you can't lose, IT that needs to be live again on Monday morning, and a landlord who wants the keys back on time. We plan office moves around your operating hours, including evening and weekend slots, so the team isn't standing around watching us carry desks.
We pack the workstations, label by zone, lift the heavy shared kit, and put it all back together at the new site. We've moved studios in the North Laine, professional services up by the station and warehouse units off Lewes Road, so we know what it takes to hit a deadline without scratching the floors on the way out.
Full detail on how we approach commercial moves is on our office removals page.
Removals & Storage in Brighton
Roughly a third of our customers need storage between moves. Sale completes on Friday, new place is the following Wednesday, and that gap has to live somewhere. We can take your whole load straight into our Brighton self-storage site at 146-148 Springfield Road, near London Road station, or into our longer-term crated facility in Newhaven if you're going to be in temporary accommodation for a few months.
Self-storage is in full or half containers (150 sq ft or 75 sq ft), with 24/7 CCTV and weekday plus Saturday-morning access. The crated option is by appointment, 250 cubic feet per crate, and works out cheaper if you don't need to get into your stuff often.
More on both options is on our removals and storage page.
Areas We Cover Around Brighton
Brighton is the hub, but most of our jobs touch the surrounding towns and villages. We have dedicated pages for the areas we move in and out of most often:
If your postcode isn't on the list, ask anyway. We cover all of East Sussex and West Sussex as standard, including regular runs out to Lewes, and we'll quote on UK-wide moves too.
How Our Brighton Removals Service Works
Fill in the quote form, email us, or call. Tell us where you're going from and to, roughly how much stuff, and your ideal date.
Most quotes go back the same day or the next. For larger jobs we'll do a free video survey rather than make you book in an in-person visit.
Crew arrives on time, in branded vans, with the right kit. We pack what you've asked us to pack, load methodically, drive carefully, and unload to the rooms you tell us.
If your dates have shifted, we can hold your load. If you want help unpacking at the other end, we do that too.
