About our Gloucester service

Gloucestershire's cathedral city and inland port, with regenerated Victorian docks, a strong rugby tradition and large post-war and modern suburbs. We provide heavy equipment moving right across Gloucester, including Tuffley and Abbeydale through to Abbeymead.

Start to finish, we keep heavy equipment moving in Gloucester straightforward: one point of contact, one fixed price and a team that turns up when agreed.

Across Gloucestershire, we move everything from single bench machines to full production cells, with the method matched to each building.

Older industrial buildings in Gloucester can have suspended floors, steps and narrow doors, so floor and route checks come first.

How do I get a quote in Gloucester?

Simply fill in the form on this page with your postcode, a short description of what you need and any timing needs. Photos help but are optional.

Can you come out to Tuffley and other parts of Gloucester?

Yes. We cover the whole of Gloucester, including Tuffley, Abbeydale, Abbeymead, Kingsholm, Hempsted and Matson, plus nearby Cheltenham, Stroud, Worcester and Chippenham.

Which Gloucester postcodes do you cover?

Every postcode in Gloucester is covered, including GL1, GL2, GL3 and GL4. If you are on the edge of Gloucester, let us know your postcode and we will check.

Who disconnects the machine from the power supply?

Electrical isolation and reconnection should be carried out by a qualified electrician, and air, hydraulic, water and coolant connections by your own engineers or the machine supplier. We coordinate with them so the machine is safely isolated before we arrive and ready to reconnect as soon as it is in position.
