White and Company Removals & Storage

White and Company handles household moves and storage from its headquarters in Botley, Southampton, with local, national, and international coverage. Its service can take in a move across town or a relocation between countries: assessing the volume, planning the move, packing, transportation, and coordinating delivery are presented as parts of one process.

The company traces its beginnings to 1871, when it started a removals business in Portsmouth that transferred passengers’ luggage from Atlantic liners. More than 150 years later, that early connection to ports sits alongside a much larger operation. White and Company describes itself as one of the UK’s largest privately owned moving companies and maintains a network of branches and warehouses.

Before moving day, a surveyor can review the home room by room, estimate the volume, and record what needs to be transported. The company also offers a video survey. It uses that information to prepare a proposal and distinguish between a part load and a full load. Once a customer proceeds, the team sets a date and arranges staff and vehicles; its packing service uses protective wrapping and double-wall boxes to prepare belongings for transit.

The local network helps coordinate moves of a few miles or longer trips between cities. The official branch directory lists offices in Bedford, on Wolseley Road in Kempston; Bournemouth, on Elliott Road in West Howe; Dunfermline, at Pitreavie Business Park; Forres, on Cumming Street; St. Peter Port, at International House on Pitronnerie Road; and St. Peter, Jersey, at St. Peters Technical Park. It also lists Unit 4, St. James Business Park in Knaresborough; Port Royal Avenue in Lancaster; North Road in Ivybridge for Plymouth; Dundas Spur in Portsmouth; Haybrook Industrial Estate in Telford; International House on Britannia Road in Waltham Cross; and International House on Bar End Road in Winchester. Each branch serves its area and helps coordinate pickup and delivery.

For European and long-distance moves, White and Company arranges full-container or part-load shipping. Goods move through an export facility, travel by sea to the destination port, and go through customs before delivery to the new home. The company also lists vehicle shipping, air freight, and customs-clearance assistance, along with routes connecting the UK to destinations across Europe and other continents.

Storage is another core part of the offering: the company operates depots with containerized spaces for short- or long-term use and lists self-storage and records-management services. For organizations, it adds corporate moves and employee relocation. For household moves, it offers MoveProtect, a liability solution based on the declared value of belongings; limits, charges, and terms depend on the company’s documentation and should be reviewed with each estimate.

The Hillsons Road address is White and Company’s head office in Botley, Southampton; for a move, the company directs customers to their local branch and its quote form. White and Company says it is a founding member of the British Association of Removers, FIDI, and OMNI, organizations associated with industry standards. Its official pages present those memberships alongside its moving and storage services.
