Flat & apartment removals in Feltham
Flats and apartments across TW13 and TW14 — ex-council blocks, conversions above the shops, and the purpose-built stock near the station.
Feltham's flats fall into three groups, and each one fails in a different place. Getting the right questions answered before anything is priced is most of the job.
The five questions
- What floor, and is there a lift
- If there is a lift, does it take furniture and does it need booking
- How tight is the stairwell turn
- How wide is the communal door
- Where can the vehicle legally stand, and how far is the carry
A video survey answers all five in a few minutes — walk us up the stairs on your phone.
Ex-council blocks
Better to move in than their reputation suggests. Built with proper communal stairs, wide landings and generous internal doorways, which is more than a lot of period conversions manage. Where there is a lift we check whether it actually takes furniture rather than assuming.
Flats above shops
The tight ones. A shared street door, a stair fitted in around the shop below, and loading restrictions on the road outside. Perfectly doable with an early start and an agreed loading point; painful without one.
Purpose-built and new-build
Around the station and the newer development. Proper communal doors, a goods lift in the taller blocks, and somewhere sensible to stand. The constraint is administrative — a booking process, a concierge, sometimes permitted hours — rather than physical. Tell us the block and we will arrange it.
Shared space
Communal doors, landings and stairs belong to your neighbours as much as to you. Protection goes on the edges, the stair stays passable, and the front door is not left standing open longer than the carry needs.

Flat move questions
What do you need to know about a flat?
Floor, whether there is a lift and whether it takes furniture, how tight the stairwell turn is, how wide the communal door is, and where the vehicle can legally stand.
Are the ex-council blocks difficult?
Not usually. They were built with proper communal stairs and wide landings, which is more than can be said for a lot of conversions. Where there is a lift we check whether it takes furniture.
What about flats above shops?
Tighter. A shared street door, a stair fitted around the shop below, and loading restrictions on the road outside. Early starts help considerably.
Is the new-build stock easier?
Generally yes — proper communal doors, a goods lift in the taller blocks, and somewhere to stand. The constraint is usually a booking process rather than the building.
Will you protect communal areas?
Yes. Your neighbours did not agree to your move — edges get protection, the stair stays passable, and the front door is not propped longer than the carry needs.
Moving out of a flat?
Tell us the floor, the lift and the stairwell. A video survey takes minutes and settles the rest.
