Removals Kettering jobs run from our depot on Long March Industrial Estate in Daventry, about 40 minutes away across the county. We are a family-run removals and haulage firm, and from the first call to the last box you are dealing with a person and not a job title.
Kettering is a market town built on boot and shoe making. It has Victorian terraces near the centre, large estates such as Ise Lodge and the Grange, and new homes at Hanwood Park. The A14 and the Midland Main Line connect it to the rest of the country.
This page covers house moves, office moves, piano moves, packing and storage in Kettering and the villages around it. Kettering is a market town in North Northamptonshire, on the A14 between Corby and Wellingborough. Alltranz is a family-run removals and haulage operator with its own depot and containerised storage in Daventry, Northamptonshire.
The streets closest to the centre were built for the shoe trade. Around Rockingham Road, Stamford Road and the roads off them, Victorian terraces have front doors onto the pavement, narrow halls and steep stairs. Parking is on the street and often full. These moves come down to the carry: enough people, furniture taken apart where needed, and protection on door frames and banisters.
The Headlands and the roads around it have larger Victorian and Edwardian houses, with more rooms and heavier furniture. They take longer to pack and load, and we plan the day for that.
Most of the rest of Kettering was built after the war. The Grange and Brambleside are mainly 1960s and 70s homes. Ise Lodge, on the east side, is a large estate from the 1980s and 90s with cul-de-sacs and shared drives. Barton Seagrave, to the south east, mixes an old village centre with modern estates.
Hanwood Park, on the eastern edge, is a large new development that is still being built. On new streets, site traffic and unfinished roads can affect where a lorry can stop, so we confirm access with you the week before.
Nearby towns and villages, including Burton Latimer, Rothwell, Desborough, Geddington, Broughton and Mawsley, range from stone cottages to new-build family homes. On narrow village streets we send a smaller vehicle.
Every house move starts with a free survey and a written quote. We offer a full pack or a fragile-only pack using recyclable and sustainable materials. If you would rather pack yourself, materials are sold at our Daventry trade counter.
Kettering is about 30 miles from our depot, roughly 40 minutes across the county. We usually take the A14, joining from the M1 at junction 19, or the A43 north from Northampton, depending on traffic on the day. The A14 can be slow around Kettering at peak times, so we plan early starts with that in mind.
Pianos need planning in Kettering’s older houses, where narrow halls and steep front steps leave little room to work. We move upright and grand pianos with the right boards, straps and wheeled equipment. At the survey we measure doorways, stairs and turns at both ends, then send enough people to move the piano safely. See our piano removals page for how a piano move works, and mention the piano when you get in touch.
Kettering’s businesses range from offices and shops in the town centre to distribution and manufacturing units on Telford Way, Cherry Hall Road and the estates along the A14. The industrial estates are easy to reach. In the town centre conservation area, loading restrictions mean the timing and stopping places need planning.
We plan office moves around your trading hours, with evening and weekend slots if you cannot stop for a working day. IT is labelled and reconnected, and furniture is taken apart and rebuilt. As a haulage operator, we also handle racking and stock.
We are a family-run removals and haulage firm with our own depot in Daventry. We are RHA members and Move Assured accredited, we hold an International CPC and a Waste Carriers Licence, and we are members of the Northamptonshire Chamber of Commerce. Most removal firms in the area do not hold these haulage credentials. Our fleet carries satnav, trackers and dash cams.
You are dealing with a person and not a job title. Mick or one of the team answers the phone, carries out your survey if you want one, and stays your point of contact until the move is done.
Corby is about 8 miles north, Wellingborough about 8 miles south, Market Harborough about 11 miles north west, Rushden about 13 miles south east and Northampton about 15 miles south west.

If your dates do not line up, or you need rooms cleared for a renovation, we can collect from Kettering and keep your belongings in containerised storage at our Daventry depot. We use 8ft, 10ft and 20ft shipping containers, internal crates for smaller loads and archive storage for paperwork. Access is staffed and by appointment, so this is not self storage. Collection, storage and delivery can be booked as one job.
Our Daventry depot is about 30 miles away, roughly 40 minutes via the A14 or the A43. We survey first and quote each move on its own, so you know the cost before the day.
Yes, upright or grand. Victorian terraces often have a front door straight onto a narrow hall and a tight stair, so we measure the route at the survey and bring the right equipment and enough people.
If you live on a terraced street near the centre or in the town centre itself, it is worth applying. Without one, the van may have to stop further away, which adds time to every trip in and out. Apply as soon as you have a date and mention it at the survey.
Yes. London is about 80 miles south and Leicester about 25 miles north west. We move people across the UK and into Europe, with an International CPC for cross-border work.
Yes. Choose a full pack, a fragile-only pack, or pack yourself with boxes, paper, bubble wrap and tape from the trade counter at our Daventry depot.
Yes. We plan town-centre moves around the loading restrictions on Market Place and Sheep Street, can work evenings or weekends, and label everything from network cables to meeting-room furniture so your team can get back to work quickly.
