When people think of removals services, their thoughts almost always turn straight to the large traditional lorry and flock of removals specialists as they load a huge number of boxes. The whole process looks as though it is designed to move a palatial amount of possessions. However, for many people, this kind of approach is simply not necessary. The majority of people do not need help moving a large family between two large houses and as such, they require a far smaller scale service. But how will embarking upon a small move change the process for those involved?

Your first step when renting a moving truck is knowing exactly what size vehicle you’ll require on moving day. Best practice is to always rent a moving vehicle which is bigger than you think you’ll actually need – this way, there’s no way you won’t have enough room to move all you need to move! Your needs and cargo may be so big that you won’t be able to find any rental moving truck big enough to allow you to move everything in one trip.
