Moving House After Marriage

Published on , in House Removals, Family Life.


At 1 Van 1 Man we help many newlyweds with their removals and understand the appeal in moving house after marriage. It’s an opportunity to clear the decks, seek new comforts and make long term plans for a prosperous future. Whether you’re having children, expanding work or merely looking for a nice garden, marriage is a perfect time in your life to take stock. Below are our thoughts and experiences with couples who’ve chosen to move home shortly after getting married.

Upsizing Your Home After Marriage

Living together is practical and pleasant; these days many couples already cohabit by the time they marry. These are usually modest-sized apartments, flats or single-bedroom houses. While this is fine for a relationship, married couples look to upsize their home in order to make room for the future. The obvious option, of course - children!

With the possibility of kids in the coming years, it’s reassuring to have extra room in the home for cots, creches and play areas. Babies notwithstanding, the extra space is also useful as a gaming areas, office or guest room.

The requirements of the family home are one thing, but newlyweds also choose to move for the location. You must not only live within commuting distance to work, but also in an area with the right amenities, schools and neighbourhoods for raising a family. It’s nice to know you’re living in a pleasant area with a community you can engage with.

On another note, moving house after marrying is a sentimental gesture. The commitment to spend your life together warrants a beautiful home, one you can fill with memories of the years to come. We see plenty of this at 1 Van 1 Man Removals of York as we help couples settle down for a bright and happy future. We wish them all the best, and look forward to moving in many more.
