Leatherhead Removals

A gateway to the beautiful Surrey Hills and surrounded by countryside is the successful business town of Leatherhead. It is perfectly situated on the train line between Epsom and Guildford, with commuters benefitting from trains travelling to London Waterloo.

Despite its small population, Leatherhead is a hub for many blue-chip companies. Despite this urban edge, the history of the town is evident in the amount of period properties and many residents champion the green spaces, cosy pubs and transport links.

Just 20 minutes from Leatherhead are Britannia Sandersteads, located in Godstone, Surrey. Moving to or from Leatherhead could not be easier with the expert removals company as they have over 40 years of experience in the industry.
