It depends on the job. Your price come down to the scope of the work and access, so the quickest way to an exact figure is to send your details. Our cost guide gives typical UK prices.

How do you move machines without a crane?

Most moves inside buildings use machine skates and toe jacks, or hydraulic gantries where the machine needs lifting. The machine is jacked up evenly, set on skates and rolled along a planned route, then jacked down in its new position. This is often the safest method for getting through standard doorways and across finished floors.
