Moving...

Does anyone know the approximate costs of removals companies?

Specifically I'm going to be moving stuff from a reasonably full mid-size 3 bedroom house approximately 100 miles. Like with storage firms, websites are bloody useless. They want to give me exact quotes, or send people out to asess my needs. All I want at this stage is a ballpark figure - I want to know if I'm talking about 250 quid or 2000 quid for this sort of thing in order to consider alternatives such as friends, family and van hire.

Last time I moved (about 4 years ago) the quotes varied from £300 to £800. That was a fairly small move, from a very full one bed flat and under 10 miles. Street access can make a difference, what cost me was the time allowed to move out of my flat was very constrained so it needed an extra body. I did my own packing and unpacking.
