Student removals in Taunton: a room's worth
How it works round here.
Taunton, Somerset • Student Removals
Taunton station sits just three-tenths of a mile from Crown Walk, close enough that a room’s worth of boxes can be wheeled down without much bother, and it's this kind of compact centre, with TA1 and TA2 covering the town, that makes student moves here fairly straightforward once we're up and running.
Van & Driver is preparing to launch Student Removals in Taunton, offering a small van and a hand carrying desks, chairs, bikes, suitcases and other small furniture for a fixed price, rather than charging by the hour. The idea is to cover the everyday reality of student moves: a single term's belongings from a house near the centre to another address in town, or further out towards Wellington, six miles down the road, for those relocating between term-time lets. Musgrove Park Hospital and the Orchard Shopping Centre both sit within a mile of the centre, giving a sense of how tightly packed Taunton is, which should make local moves quick once a partner driver is confirmed. We're not yet able to take bookings for this service in Taunton, but we're working on bringing local drivers on board so that students moving in or out of the town, whether across postcodes or out towards Wellington and Bridgwater, will have a fixed-price van and driver ready to help with the lifting and the loading.
