Another Busy Week at A&M Removals: Winter Removals North Yorkshire

It’s been another incredibly busy week at A&M Removals of Pocklington, with our team covering a wide variety of moves across the country. From small local relocations to multi-day cross-country jobs, the vans have barely stopped rolling!
This week alone, the crew successfully completed:
- House removals to Rode, Somerset
- A local move to Doncaster
- A long-distance job to Bishop Auckland
- A 3-day move from Haxby to Saffron Walden
- The start of a 5-day pack-and-move from York city centre to storage, and then onward to Lincoln
Owner Nick Davies says he couldn’t be prouder of the team:
“We’ve got a really great team here at A&M Removals. The lads work incredibly hard, and week after week they deliver a level of service that makes me proud to put the A&M name on every job.”
And with over 35 years of expertise, free boxes, full packing services and friendly movers who genuinely care, it’s no wonder customers keep coming back.

Winter Removals North Yorkshire: What to Expect

Winter can be a challenging time to move house, especially in North Yorkshire where the weather can be… unpredictable, to say the least! But with good planning (and the right removals team), your move can still run smoothly.
Here are our top tips for preparing for a winter move:
1. Keep an eye on the forecast
Snow, frost, and icy roads can cause delays. Staying aware helps you plan realistically.
2. Clear outdoor areas in advance
Paths, driveways, and steps can become slippery. A quick grit or salt the night before helps keep everyone safe.
3. Protect your belongings from the cold
Electronics and delicate furniture don’t love sudden temperature changes. Tell your movers what needs extra care.
4. Pack a “winter essentials” bag
Include:
- Hot drinks
- Snacks
- Warm clothing
- Torch
- Important documents
- Phone chargers
- Kettle (always!)
5. Keep flooring protected
Wet boots and carpets aren’t a great mix. We bring floor protection, but it’s always helpful to have towels ready.
Insider Tricks for a Smooth Winter Move
Here are a few professional secrets from the A&M team:
- Start early – daylight is limited, and moves are always easier when you can see the steps in front of you!
- Label boxes for the weather – “keep upright,” “fragile,” or “don’t leave on van overnight.”
- Let your heating run a little longer – moving into a cold house can make unpacking miserable.
- Use plastic tubs for the most important items – cardboard and slush don’t mix.
- Warm the kettle FIRST when you arrive – trust us, nothing boosts morale like a brew.
As Nick says:
“Winter moves can be just as smooth as summer ones with a bit of planning. We’ve handled thousands over the years – nothing fazes this team.”
