Astra Removals typically quotes £900–£1,400 for a three-bedroom house move from Taunton to Bournemouth, depending on volume, access, and services required; contact us directly for a free, no-obligation survey and firm price.
Moving a three-bedroom house from Taunton to Bournemouth is a straightforward inter-county relocation of roughly 65–70 miles, travelling east along the A31 or via the A303 and A338 depending on your precise postcodes. Astra Removals has been carrying out moves along the South Coast and into Somerset since 1986, so this is a route our crews know well.
For a typical three-bedroom property you can expect to need a 3.5-tonne or 7.5-tonne lorry, or in some cases two vehicles, depending on how much furniture and boxed content you have accumulated. Factors that affect the final price include: the number of loaded rooms, whether you need a packing service, parking restrictions at either end, a flight of stairs or a narrow access road, and whether you require storage between the two addresses.
To get an accurate, binding quote rather than a rough estimate, we recommend a free video or in-home survey. This takes around 20–30 minutes and means there are no surprise charges on moving day. You can request a survey by calling our Bournemouth office or submitting your details through the enquiry form on this site. We aim to return written quotes within 24 hours on weekdays.
When comparing quotes from any removal firm, check that the price includes VAT, that the company carries adequate goods-in-transit and public liability insurance, and that they are members of a recognised trade body such as the British Association of Removers (BAR) or the Removals Industry Ombudsman Scheme. These protections matter if anything goes wrong on a long-distance move.
How long does a Taunton to Bournemouth removal take on the day?
For a three-bedroom house, allow 8–10 hours in total: typically 2–3 hours loading in Taunton, 1.5 hours driving, and 2–3 hours unloading in Bournemouth, plus time for wrapping, checks, and travel breaks. An early start — usually 7:30–8:00 am — helps ensure everything is completed in a single day.
Do I need to be present in Taunton and in Bournemouth on moving day?
Yes, or you should arrange for a trusted representative to be at both addresses. Someone needs to direct the crew, confirm which items are going, and hand over or receive keys. If you cannot be present at one end, let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.
Can Astra Removals store my belongings if there is a gap between moving out and moving in?
Yes. We offer secure containerised storage at our Bournemouth facility, which is monitored and dry. Your goods can be loaded directly from Taunton into storage and delivered to your new address when you are ready, avoiding the need for a second full removal.
What is the best way to get an accurate removal quote for a Taunton property?
A free video survey or in-home survey gives the most accurate price. You describe or show us every room, loft, garage, and garden, and we produce a written, itemised quote. Estimates given without a survey can be unreliable for larger properties and sometimes increase on moving day.
