Professional Removals Services in Ashbourne
Since 2011, Smart Move Removals have planned, packed and delivered Ashbourne removals for hundreds of households and local businesses across Derbyshire.
Ashbourne isn’t like other towns. A DE6 Georgian market town at the southern gate to the Peak District — St Oswald's spire, the Royal Shrovetide Football and cobbled Georgian frontages along Church Street. It’s a place with real character, and we’re there all the time. Most of our Ashbourne jobs come from repeat customers, word of mouth, and estate agents who’ve used us and thought, "yeah, they’re alright." With about 8,400 people in Ashbourne, our planners probably recognize half of them by sight. Access is something most people don’t think about until moving day, and then it can be stressful. Church Street and St John Street through Ashbourne narrow past the market. Shrovetide (Feb) closes the town centre entirely — we plan around it. We sort all that out before moving day. If we need to call the local highways agency, we do it. If loading needs arranging, we include it in the quote. We don’t leave it until we’re blocking traffic.
