What Fees Are Involved in a House Move?
A house move in the UK involves several layers of cost beyond the removal company.
Conveyancing solicitor fees typically run £800–£2,000.
Stamp duty applies on purchases above £250,000.
Estate agent fees for sellers average 1–3% of the sale price.
Survey costs range from £300 (condition report) to £600 (full structural survey).
On top of these, the removal company fee is often the most straightforward charge — Giant Van gives a fixed price that does not change unless the job changes materially.
Some jurisdictions outside the UK do pay relocation incentives to attract new residents, but in England the costs of moving are borne by the buyer and seller.
