About Moving Works, Longton

4 Bridge Court, Little Hoole, PR4 5BF
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0Industry affiliation logo 1Industry affiliation logo 2

Established in 2000 by property lawyer Georgina Cox, MovingWorks began as a family business with one clear aim: to do things differently. Alongside her son, Mark, she set out to raise the standard of estate agency across the North West — combining deep expertise with genuine care.

Today, that same ethos drives our boutique, high-performance approach.

We believe outstanding results come from excellence in three core pillars:

Communication. Marketing. Negotiation.

• Communication: Clear, proactive, one-to-one support from your dedicated Property Partner. Someone who knows your move inside out and is always in your corner.

• Marketing: Beautifully crafted, digitally-driven campaigns designed to showcase your home at its very best. Quite simply, marketing that is streets ahead.

• Negotiation: Skilled, strategic, and always focused on securing the strongest possible position — financially and practically.

Because moving home isn’t just a transaction — it’s personal. It’s emotional. It’s a life step. We stay closely involved throughout the full moving cycle to make the experience calmer, clearer and more rewarding.

Over two decades on, we are still family-run, still improving, still pushing for better — powered by innovation, care and an unwavering commitment to our clients.

Family-run. Digitally-driven. People-first.

We enhance the moving experience — and help you move forward with confidence.
