Moving to or from Herefordshire?

Let M&G Do the Heavy Lifting (Before the A49 Junction Sends You Round in Circles)

Welcome to Herefordshire — England’s orchard county, where cider apples meet cathedral towers and the A49 keeps Hereford and Leominster firmly connected. With around 190,000 residents who know the shortcut past the Black Mountains better than any sat‑nav, Herefordshire blends rural calm with historic charm.

Schools That Actually Impress

Hereford Cathedral School, John Kyrle High in Ross‑on‑Wye, and Lucton School (the independent heavyweight) all carry strong reputations. Translation: your kids will get a solid education, and you’ll have plenty of parents comparing exam results at the school gates.

Economy With a Balance

Herefordshire’s economy mixes agriculture, food production, and tourism with growing service and creative hubs in Hereford. Add in commuters heading to Worcester, Gloucester, and Cardiff, and you’ve got a county that’s practical, connected, and quietly thriving.

Things to Do (Besides Timing the A49 Traffic)

  • Hereford Cathedral – home of the Mappa Mundi and centuries of history.

  • Black Mountains & Golden Valley – rolling hills and postcard views.

  • Local favourites – Hereford cider for foodies, Hereford FC for matchday buzz, and countryside walks for fresh air and photo ops.

Moving Services That Keep It Simple

At M&G, we can’t fix the A49 bottleneck, but we can make moving day a whole lot easier:

  • Full packing services

  • Secure, insured storage (ideal if your chain moves slower than traffic at Belmont Roundabout)

  • Local, national, European & overseas moves (because sometimes Herefordshire is just a stepping stone to Helsinki)
