About us
A family-run Dorset removals firm, built on word of mouth.
Connor and a small, experienced crew. Shaftesbury-based, Dorset-proud, covering the corner where Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire meet.
Our story
Built on care, not corner-cutting.
MarleyMoves Ltd is run by Connor with an experienced in-house team from our Shaftesbury, SP7 base. We cover Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire as our core local patch and run UK-wide long-distance moves from the same operation. The business has grown through word of mouth, clear written quotes and careful moving work.
We do not hand booked removals to another removal company. Marley Moves surveys and plans the access, then our in-house team carries out the move using that same job plan. The exact crew can vary with the date, size of the move and specialist equipment required, but responsibility for the job stays with Marley Moves.
Our local patch spans Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire and continues to grow as we add detailed town guides for the places we regularly quote. Beyond the local area we run UK-wide long-distance moves to destinations including London, Bristol, the Midlands, the North, Cornwall and Scotland, with one written plan for the route.
Most jobs combine more than one service: a removal with full or part packing, storage between completion dates, a probate clearance bolted onto a downsizing move. Quoting them under a single schedule keeps the price honest and avoids three separate suppliers chasing each other on the day.
What we stand for
Four things that don't change.
In-house from plan to move day
Marley Moves plans the job and our in-house team carries it out. We do not hand the booking to another removal company.
Honest, fixed pricing
Written quotes define the agreed scope before move day. If you add work or an unknown access issue changes the job, any revised price is explained before the additional work is carried out.
