Second homes, Ferry Road and video surveys

Studland Removals

Live away from your Studland house? The whole quote can be done by video.

Studland moves, main home or second home, are quoted in writing by Poole Bay Removals after a survey in person or by video, and the video route means the whole quote can be done from your main home. Over 250 five-star Google reviews sit with the removals team carrying out the moves.

Studland is about 5 miles from Poole, and moves run to anywhere in Great Britain.

Sort what stays and what travels before the video call

Sort it before the call, because the survey can run by video from the house while you join from your main home, with no app to download. Where a house is a second home, the person planning the move may live elsewhere.

Three steps

Quoted from wherever you live, in three steps

You can do all three from your main home. The quote is in writing before anything is agreed.

  1. From your main home
  2. Survey by video or at home
  3. The quote, written
  1. Enquire from your main home

    The Studland postcode, the other postcode, the size of the move and a phone number.

  2. Video from the house, then the road

    On a video call from the house, or in person. Finish at the road outside.

  3. Answer from wherever you are

    Read it from wherever you are, then agree it or ask, before anything is booked.

Ferry Road is private and busy in summer, so flag it at the first call

Mention it when you ring if the home is along it. Dorset Council's 2024 bus service improvement plan says Ferry Road, the approach to the Sandbanks ferry, is a private road in the ferry company's control, and that traffic builds up there, above all in summer.

The packing can be done for you, and the boxes collected after

The removals team packs in full, in part or fragile items only, using its own materials, and collects the boxes after the move. Say which when you ring.

Over one Studland home in four was a second home in the council's count

Dorset Council's January 2019 evidence paper put Studland's share at about 28%, the highest of the 26 Purbeck parishes, averaging council tax figures from November 2016 and the electoral roll from February 2017. On that roll, 78 of 278 homes were second homes.

Questions

No visit needed, and other Studland answers

Rather ring?

Can the whole quote be done without visiting the house?

Yes. The survey can be by video link with no app to download, and the quote comes in writing.

What sets the price of a Studland move?

The load and the way in and out of each home. Both are seen at the survey, and the written price comes before you agree anything.

Can the move go to a main home at the other end of Great Britain?

Yes. Moves run between Studland and anywhere in Great Britain, quoted in writing after the survey.
