SOME TIPS FOR MOVING TO HAMPSHIRE | HAMPSHIRE GUIDE
A useful guide if you’re looking to move to the Hampshire area or if you’re looking to relocate within Hampshire:
House Removals to Hampshire
Many of the clients we work with at Schepens are moving to Hampshire from outside the county. They’re families moving from London to Winchester, Southampton, Romsey or Basingstoke who are excited at the prospect. There’s the promise of more space, easy access to beautiful beaches, hiking in the New Forest and cleaner air. But there’s also a major change to manage in order to start accruing the benefits. And that’s where Schepens excels.
Schepens Understands The Stresses of Moving
Schepens is a 4th generation, family-run business, and we’ve been providing local house removals in Hampshire for over a century. Over that time we’ve learnt an awful lot about house moving, like: moving is about far more than getting your furniture from A to B; you need a removals company that’s willing to go the extra mile for clients; and it’s a stressful business, however well-organised you are.
Tailored Removals and Support
No two moves are the same. It’s a cliché but it’s also true. That’s why the first thing we do for any of our clients is assign them a professional move co-ordinator. They will talk through your requirements in detail, and create a removals plan to match them. Our FREE no obligation quote is based on that plan, so you know that the pricing is accurate.
Local Expertise Every Step of the Way
Working with people who don’t just provide ‘removals to Winchester’ but actually live there, for example, makes sense. We can advise on the best day of the week to move in, the local parking conditions, roads to avoid due to roadworks, and give accurate timings on journeys. Being local means we can sort out parking for moving day, and check out any local events that might impact it.
What ‘Going the Extra Mile’ Means for Schepens
Our clients often feed back that our house removals teams are not only professionals, they are always willing to go the extra mile. What they’re describing, often, is the fact that our removals teams aren’t ‘jobsworths’. If a client experiences a problem on moving day, they will help to solve it, and they won’t be happy to sign off on a move until they know clients are OK in their new home.
“Schepens are a first class company who take care of every detail. Their planning appraisal for the move was spot on even though we had no idea how many items had to come out of the garage, loft and store. They had a clear plan for every day of the move and a detailed inventory to show what had been loaded. Schepens took care to ensure the access at both ends was assessed in advance.” Stephen Jefferson
After all, if you’re moving to somewhere as beautiful as Hampshire, you want your first day to be a good one. Schepens ‘goes the extra mile’ to make that happen.
360° Services for for House Removals in Hampshire
We were recently moving a family to Southampton who were attempting to find space for furniture from two different previous homes. When it became obvious that not everything was going to fit, we were able to offer an immediate solution. Our local storage facilities offered the family time to consider what to do with the extraneous objects. Whether you’re working to a tight deadline, looking for professional packing services, or need piano removals – we can arrange them for you.

5 BEST PLACES TO LIVE IN HAMPSHIRE
Wondering why so many people are making plans to move to Hampshire? The families we move are all looking for the unique blend of rural, coastal, and urban lifestyles which the county offers. Whether you’re seduced by the beauty of the New Forest, the historical architecture of Winchester, or the port heritage of Portsmouth, Hampshire is a great communication hub, and an ideal spot to bring up children.
Schepens is currently moving more families than ever to Hampshire, and there’s a real focus on the area from Londoners. So, we thought we’d put together a guide of the 5 most popular locations across the county:
PLEASE CALL 02380 070071 FOR YOUR FREE NO OBLIGATION QUOTE ON OUR HAMPSHIRE REMOVALS
LYMINGTON
This pretty port town has recently been named as one of the most popular places to live in Britain. It’s easy to see why – picturesque, cobbled streets, flanked by predominantly Georgian architecture leading down to a working quay where the local catch is still unloaded daily. It’s something of a yachting mecca and has long been a favoured spot for celebrities to buy a home.
House Prices: From £424,052 for a terraced property, to £870,645 for a large detached home.
Popular Schools: Junior schools – Lymington CofE Infant School, Milford-on-Sea CofE Primary School. Secondary schools – Priestlands School.
Transport: 2 hours 15 mins on average to London Waterloo, by train. 30 mins to Southampton. 45 mins to Bournemouth.
WINCHESTER
This ancient capital of England defined by the elegant architecture of its cathedral, surrounded by water meadows, and higgledy-piggledy cobbled streets. Locals describe Winchester as a ‘city that feels like a village’ because everything is within walking distance. Each winter Winchester hosts a picturesque Christmas market in the cathedral grounds, and each summer the Hat Fair fills the city with outdoor performance.
House Prices: Terraced properties average £631,376, detached properties average £933,270
Popular Schools: Junior schools – St Swithuns, St Faith’s CofE, Sparsholt CofE, St Peter’s Catholic School, Compton All Saints CofE. Secondary schools – St Swithuns, King’s School, Peter Symonds Sixth Form College.
Transport: Trains run regularly to Waterloo and the journey takes, on average, 1 hour.
PORTSMOUTH
If you love maritime history, Portsmouth is second-to-none. Henry VIII created the Royal Navy here in 1527 and the city and two-thirds of the Navy’s surface vessels still dock here. This island city is home to the Mary Rose and Nelson’s HMS Victory but it’s also a university city with a lively 21st century waterfront, dominated by the iconic Spinnaker Tower.
House Prices: Terraced properties average £288,113, flats average £185,426, semi-detached properties average £373,484.
Popular Schools: Junior Schools – Ark Ayrton Primary Academy, St John’s Cathedral Primary, St Jude’s CofE Primary. Secondary schools – Portsmouth High School, Portsmouth Grammar School.
Transport: The drive to London takes, on average, 1 hour 45 minutes, or there are regular trains to Waterloo which take around 90 minutes.
STOCKBRIDGE
Sitting at the heart of the Test Valley, Stockbridge high street was once a drovers’ road, but the Georgian High Street is now home to numerous independent shops, boutiques, cafes and restaurants. The River Test runs through the centre of the town, making it a haven for fishermen and a picturesque stop-over for tourists looking for a typically English town.
House Prices: Semi-detached properties average £520,714, detached properties average £981,007.
Schools: Junior schools – Stockbridge Primary, Kings Somborne CofE. Secondary schools – Test Valley School
Transport: Not an easy commute to London; Winchester is the nearest connection to Waterloo and the journey time is around 2.5 hours.
SOUTHAMPTON
Probably the most popular location in Hampshire for families. This is one of the UK’s fastest growing economies making it a great choice if you’re looking for a job or wanting to start your own business. Southampton is a busy university city, but it’s also close to the New Forest, and Southampton Common. Plus, it’s a port with a lively waterfront, great shopping, art galleries and theatres.
House Prices: Terraced properties average £271,450, semi-detached properties average £320,857
Schools: Junior Schools – Beechwood Junior School, Bitterne Park Primary School, Marchwood Junior School. Secondary schools – Cantell School, Regent’s Park Community College, Redbridge Community School, St Anne’s Catholic School.
Transport: Trains run every 30 minutes to Waterloo and the journey takes 1 hour 23 mins on average.

Hampshire Removals | UK Removals
Moving to Hampshire
Located on the Southern coast of England, Hampshire is a stunning county that appears to have it all; beautiful countryside, vibrant cities, and a magnificent stretch of coastline. It’s one of the most successful UK economies outside London, with good transport links to the capital and Europe, and it’s home to world class universities. No wonder moving to Hampshire is more popular than ever.
Schepens has been providing removals to Hampshire for over a century now. We regularly help movers to relocate from London to a new home and a new life in this leafy county. Popular destinations are Winchester, Portsmouth, Southampton and Andover. We asked movers who have made their home in these spots, what moving to Hampshire has meant to them. Here’s what they told us.
Speak to us today on 01794 323558 for a no obligation removals quote on your move to Hampshire.
1. Southampton’s a City by the Sea
If you’re moving out of London as a family, Southampton should definitely be on your radar. It feels urban, diverse and energetic without being overwhelming. And, as far as the kids are concerned, it’s the perfect spot. Weekends are all about walks on the beach in Portsmouth or Bournemouth, or exploring the New Forest. All this – just 90 minutes from London. Moving to Hampshire has given us more space, and a better quality of life.
2. Winchester is a Dream of a City
Ever since it was named ‘The Best Place to Live in Britain’ by the Sunday Times in 2016, I knew I had to move to Winchester. My partner needed a bit of persuading but now he’s as much of a fan as me. It’s an astoundingly vibrant city, and living here feels like you’re part of something that is ancient and really special. After years of buses and tubes, we love being able to walk everywhere. Most important for us though, moving to Hampshire means that you’re always minutes away from stunning countryside and huge skies.
3. Andover is Ideal for Commuting
When the family got too big for our London flat, we started looking for somewhere outside the city where we could buy a house with a garden. Andover was a great option for us; it’s an easy commute, with good schools and affordable properties. Plus – and it’s a big plus – it’s a gateway to all the delights of Hampshire that are now on our doorstep. Andover is a little market town that’s been a perfect stepping stone for us.
4. Portsmouth Offers Life at it’s Best
I grew up in Portsmouth, so I’m biased, but I never knew how much I loved it until I went to Birmingham to study and then work for a few years. Moving back to Portsmouth is the best thing I’ve ever done. I love the promenade, being able to take long walks on the beach with the dog, and spending Saturdays in Southampton. The things I missed most were the small of the sea, and summer festivals on Southsea Common, and the view from the top of Portsdown Hill!
Moving to Hampshire? Schepens Can Help
Schepens are based in Hampshire, and we move people to and from cities and towns across the length and breadth of this beautiful county. This means that we have extensive local knowledge of the region. Our locally recruited removals teams can help with the best times of day to schedule a move, and which routes to avoid at rush hour.
Every Single Move Is Unique

We achieve this by drawing down from a range of services, which include:
- Packing. If you need help packing up your home, our BAR trained packers can help. They’ll also label your boxes, and create your shipping itinerary.
- Insurance. Your goods will be insured during transit. We can also arrange cover for Accidental Damage and Extended Liability should you be looking for further peace of mind.
- Non-Standard Goods. We’ve moved pianos, antiques and works of art to Hampshire for clients. Tell us what you want shipping, and we’ll arrange bespoke packaging and transport.
- Self Storage. If you need to put furniture or domestic items in storage whilst you find a flat or a house in the UK, Schepens can help. We have secure local storage facilities
- Transport. Your goods will be shipped in one of our state-of-the-art removals vehicles which run on air ride suspension and boast an adjustable bearing system, which ensures little or no movement of vehicle content.
Schepens ‘Go the Extra Mile’
“The whole service was excellent, the booking easy and communications good, the move on the day went very smoothly. This is the third time I have booked a house move with Schepens and would definitely recommend them.”
