Packing as a full, partial or fragile-only service, with materials supplied and everything labelled by room, usually the day before your move. Given how many period and higher-value homes there are in Faversham, careful packing of fragile and antique items is a regular part of our work here.
Four generations of the Strank family have moved Kent households since 1941, and the business is still family run today. The same trained team handles your move from survey to delivery, with no job handed to a subcontractor on the day. Faversham is a short run down the A251 from our depot, so it is regular work for our crews, and the period and listed homes the town is known for are exactly the kind of move we plan carefully for.
On credentials: Stranks holds full British Association of Removers (BAR) membership, including the BAR Advanced Payment scheme, and is certified to BS EN 12522, the British Standard that audits the survey process, loading plans, vehicle standards and crew training. Many Kent firms hold BAR membership; far fewer hold BS EN 12522. You can verify our BAR membership on the BAR website at bar.co.uk. We are also Checkatrade certified and a member of the Furniture and Home Improvement Ombudsman scheme, with a 9.7 out of 10 rating across 380 verified reviews.
We are based in Ashford, not Faversham. That is deliberately honest: you get a full-depot operation coming to you, not a one-van outfit.
Faversham is a historic market town on the creek, with one of the largest and best-preserved conservation areas in Kent, and that shapes almost every move here.
The medieval town centre, around the Market Place, Abbey Street and Court Street, is lined with listed timber-framed and Georgian houses that sit right on the pavement, with very limited parking and streets that were never built for a large vehicle. Abbey Street in particular is one of the finest medieval streets in the country and needs careful handling. We plan the loading position and any parking permit in advance for these addresses rather than blocking a narrow street on the day.
The listed and period interiors bring low doorways, tight winding staircases, uneven floors and original features that need protecting. These are carried by hand with full protection, and larger items are dismantled where needed to get them out cleanly.
Preston Street and the town-centre core are busy and part-restricted, so timing and the loading point are worth settling before the day. The creekside and quay properties have their own tight access, while the newer homes toward the edges of the town are more straightforward.
We settle the vehicle, route, crew and parking plan at the survey, so the access is worked out before moving day rather than on it.
Faversham sits between Canterbury and the Medway side, and most moves here connect to the wider area. See our main Canterbury removals page for the city and its villages, and our Ashford removals page for the town and our depot. We also cover the surrounding area including Whitstable, Sittingbourne and Herne Bay from the same depot. For the full list, see our areas we cover page.
Yes. The conservation area, including the Market Place, Abbey Street and Court Street, has narrow streets and limited parking, and Abbey Street in particular is a listed medieval street. We confirm the vehicle size, the loading position and any council permit requirements at the survey, so it is planned in advance rather than worked out on the day.
Yes. Faversham's listed timber-framed and Georgian homes are a regular part of our work. Low doorways, winding staircases and original features are handled by hand with full protection, and larger items are dismantled where needed to avoid damage to the piece or the property.
Faversham is around 18 miles from our Wotton Trading Estate depot in Ashford, a short run down the A251. We plan an early depot departure so the crew arrives at the agreed time and the day runs to a clear timetable.
The full range: Georgian and Victorian townhouses and listed buildings in the conservation area, creekside homes, and newer builds toward the edges of the town. The survey is where we establish what specialist handling a particular property needs.
Every move is priced individually on the volume of belongings, the number of rooms, access at both addresses, and the distance. A listed townhouse and a modern family home are different jobs, so we do not publish fixed prices. Get a free quote and we will come back with clear, itemised pricing.
As early as you can, ideally four to six weeks, and longer for a larger or listed property that also needs a full packing day. Month-end and summer dates are busiest, and we are often booked up, so the sooner you are in touch the better. If your sale is still progressing, we can hold a provisional date.
