Moving in Deeside
A local team that knows the area
Deeside is a group of towns along the river rather than a single place — Connah's Quay, Shotton, Queensferry, Sealand and Hawarden, with Ewloe, Mancot, Sandycroft and Garden City between them — and we cover all of them from our base in Wrexham. It sits on the Welsh side of the border, and many Deeside moves cross into Chester and Cheshire; whichever direction you are heading, the price is calculated the same way, from your postcodes and the volume you are moving.
Worth knowing before you move in Deeside
- Deeside is in Flintshire, Wales. Chester, Saltney and Ellesmere Port are a few miles away in England. Crossing the border changes nothing about your move.
- Business moves on Deeside Industrial Park and the estates off the A548 can be booked out of hours, so you are trading again the next morning.
- The A494 and A55 meet at Ewloe and the A548 crosses the Flintshire Bridge, so Deeside is quick to reach from any direction. Your quote uses the real driving route between your two postcodes.

Common questions
Moving in Deeside — common questions
Which towns count as Deeside for a removals quote?
Connah's Quay, Shotton, Queensferry, Sealand, Garden City, Hawarden, Ewloe, Mancot, Sandycroft and Broughton — the built-up area along the Dee between Flint and the Cheshire border, all in Flintshire. You do not need to decide whether your address counts: enter your exact postcode into the quote and the distance is calculated from there.
How long does a move from Deeside to Chester take?
Connah's Quay to Chester city centre is under ten miles — along the A548 through Sealand, or up the A55 and A5104 through Broughton — and the van is normally between the two in twenty minutes outside the Queensferry rush hour. Because the leg is so short, a Deeside-to-Chester house move is normally a single-day job, and a small flat move can be done in a morning. Bear in mind that Chester's end may involve a permit street or a restricted-access flat, which adds carrying time; a driveway in Mancot does not. Build the quote and both ends are priced in.
Does moving from Deeside into England involve anything extra?
Nothing on our side. There is no paperwork and no border to clear; the same team, the same insurance and the same pricing method apply whether you are moving from Shotton to Saltney or from Hawarden to Handbridge. The one practical difference is administrative: you register with a different council for council tax and bin collections — Cheshire West and Chester instead of Flintshire.
Do you cover Hawarden, Ewloe and Broughton?
Yes. Hawarden, Ewloe, Aston, Broughton and Bretton are the A55 side of Deeside and we work there as regularly as in Connah's Quay and Shotton. Broughton, at the Chester end by the Airbus site, is the last stop before the border; Buckley and Mold are a few minutes further along the A494. Wherever on Deeside you are, enter the exact postcode and the quote does the rest.
Can you do a single item or a small flat move in Shotton or Connah's Quay?
Yes. A sofa from Shotton to a family member in Chester, a one-bedroom flat in Connah's Quay moving to the Wirral, a student going to Liverpool — these are priced as small moves. Add only the items that are actually moving and the quote reflects that; you are not paying for a full house-move day.
Will you move from Deeside to the Wirral, Ellesmere Port or Liverpool?
Yes. The A548 and A550 lead onto the M56 and M53, so Ellesmere Port, Neston, Birkenhead and Liverpool are all straightforward from Deeside. The drive is priced from the real route between your two postcodes — enter them into the quote and the figure is shown on screen with no card details required.
Where will the van park for a move in Deeside?
On the estates in Mancot, Aston, Ewloe and much of Connah's Quay there is usually a driveway or a space outside the door. On the older terraces along Chester Road West and High Street in Connah's Quay, and around Shotton High Street, loading is on-street. If the nearest stopping place is some distance from your door, tell us in the quote so we allow for the carry when we plan the day and the price.
