When organising the removal of your possessions and belongings from your current house to your new one, it’s best to prepare as well as possible, well in advance, for the move to get off to a running start. Hiring a removal service with the right level of knowledge and awareness of the service they provide and how it impacts the move itself will make a whole world of difference. So when you have signed off on the papers for buying your dream new home, you can start planning ahead with the right attitude and awareness of requirements for the move to go ahead with the right assistance of the removal company you intend hiring for their help. |
The best way to work out the method of travel when considering hiring a removal van yourself or hiring a removal service for their professional and specialist help, is to get quotes and compare them. Get quotes from various removal firms; request quotes from local firms that offer vehicle loans or that are well known and reputable specialist removal companies, and then compare the prices on offer. Also keep in mind the level of service and attention to detail that the company provide.
However, don’t just be swayed by the cheaper prices available as options; the gut decision to go with the ethic and approach of the best team to hire can make all the difference for your move. With a company you feel a genuine connection to (even if it sounds a little silly) is worth a potential price rise, as you are able to trust more and worry less about any possible thing that could go wrong, knowing that your items are in good hands!
If you use a removal firm, make sure that you do read your contract (including the small print especially!) so you know what to do should any of your goods get damaged in the move, and so that you are fully aware of the terms and conditions. Be sure to check your household insurance too so you have everything covered just in case. And make a checklist of the utility companies that you will need to contact. Some removal companies will actually provide useful extras like insurance and packing

Ensure that the removal firm is a member of the National Guild of Removers and Storers. This helps ensure that everything is above board and you are not unintentionally hiring a ‘cowboy’ service that will probably result in a bodge job. Better trained and equipped, you will also have a better chance at getting worthwhile feedback and testimonials to read up on, to check by, to help your decision in choosing the right service provider.
