Copmanthorpe combines village charm with urban convenience. Located just off the A64, it offers quick access to York, Leeds, and Harrogate, making it ideal for commuters. The village itself has a welcoming community, excellent schools, and a thriving local scene with shops, cafés, and pubs.
The upcoming Barratt Homes development will bring a range of well-designed new properties—from modern family houses to affordable starter homes—ideal for first-time buyers, young families, and downsizers alike. These new builds are designed with energy efficiency and open-plan living in mind, creating homes that are both practical and stylish.
For many, moving to Copmanthorpe represents more than just a change of address. It’s a lifestyle upgrade, blending modern living with Yorkshire countryside tranquillity. And with a trusted removals partner by your side, the transition can be smooth, stress-free, and surprisingly enjoyable.
At Jorvik Removals, we’ve been helping people relocate in and around York for over forty years. Our experience means we know the area well—from the winding roads through Askham Bryan to the busy routes leading into York’s city centre. That local knowledge makes a real difference on moving day.
Our process begins with a free home or video survey, where we assess your property, access routes, and belongings to create a tailored moving plan. We then provide a transparent quotation, so you know exactly what’s included—no hidden extras or surprise charges.
Whether you’re coming from across Yorkshire or relocating from further afield, our York-based team ensures that your move into Copmanthorpe is handled efficiently and with care.
Every household has its own needs, which is why we offer flexible options for every kind of move. Our full service removals package takes care of everything, including packing, transportation, and even unpacking at your new home. We supply all the materials, handle furniture dismantling, and ensure every item arrives safely and securely.
This service is particularly popular with families moving into new builds, where time is limited and organisation is key. You can focus on setting up utilities and decorating while we handle the heavy lifting—literally.
For those who prefer to do their own packing, we provide access to professional moving supplies, including strong boxes, bubble wrap, and tape. Everything we use in our professional service is available to purchase directly, so you can pack like a pro even if you prefer to manage the process yourself.
A successful move is built on preparation. Once your date is confirmed, we’ll schedule the best time to arrive, taking into account site access and any construction activity still happening near your property.
On the day, our crew arrives promptly, completes a brief walkthrough, and begins work systematically—loading furniture, appliances, and boxes in a logical, secure order. Every item is wrapped and protected using quilted blankets and straps to prevent movement during transit.
We also protect flooring and doorways at both properties, ensuring your new home stays in pristine condition. If your property is still in its final stages of completion, or parking is limited due to ongoing building work, our team coordinates with the site office to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Sometimes, new-build handovers don’t go quite to plan. Perhaps the completion date changes, or interior work is still ongoing when your moving date arrives. That’s why we offer short term storage at our secure York facility—less than twenty minutes from Copmanthorpe.
Your belongings will be stored in clean, dry, sealed wooden containers, monitored by CCTV and protected by 24-hour security. When your new home is ready, we’ll deliver everything back at your convenience.
This option gives you peace of mind during what can otherwise be a stressful waiting period, especially if your previous property has already been sold.
Jorvik Removals is proud to be part of the York community, and that connection means our customers benefit from local expertise and personal service. We know the routes, we understand access challenges, and we’re used to working around the quirks of Yorkshire properties—from narrow driveways to rural lanes.
For those moving into new developments like the upcoming Barratt Homes site, our experience ensures a professional, reliable service that fits neatly into your timeline. We communicate clearly at every stage, so you always know what’s happening and when.
When you’re moving house, it’s not just about boxes and vans—it’s about trust. Our trained, uniformed crews treat every home and every item with respect. From antiques to appliances, everything is handled carefully, giving you complete confidence that your belongings will arrive safely.
Once the boxes are unpacked and furniture is in place, you’ll quickly see why Copmanthorpe is one of Yorkshire’s most sought-after locations. Its combination of excellent amenities, community spirit, and access to the countryside make it perfect for family life. You’re only minutes from York’s shops, schools, and restaurants, yet far enough to enjoy quiet evenings and open space.
Whether you’re moving into a spacious family home or your very first property, Jorvik Removals helps you start this exciting new chapter on the right foot. Our friendly team takes pride in making moving day simple, efficient, and stress-free—so you can focus on settling into your new surroundings.
