House Removals

Moving home can be stressful, but planning ahead and arranging your move in advance can make the process easier to manage. If you're hiring a removal company, try to get at least three written quotes and ask friends or family for recommendations where possible. You can also check whether a company belongs to a relevant trade association, such as the British Association of Removers.

Research the removal company before hiring them. Find out how long they have been trading, look at customer feedback and check exactly what is included in the quote. When comparing removals quotes, make sure you're comparing like for like. For example, check whether VAT, packing, insurance and other services are included in the quoted price.

Moving furniture and belongings involves plenty of planning and physical work. Hiring a removal company can reduce the amount you need to do yourself and may provide additional protection through insurance, depending on the company's policy and the service you choose. Many removal companies also offer packing services if you don't want to pack your belongings yourself.

If you're planning a DIY move, you can hire a suitable van and ask family or friends to help. Alternatively, you could use a "man with a van" service. Whichever option you choose, check what insurance is provided for your belongings while they're being transported. If you're hiring a removal company, consider having a clear-out beforehand so you aren't paying to move items you no longer need.

For larger moves, hiring a removal company can reduce the amount of packing, lifting and transportation you need to handle yourself. Moving heavy or bulky furniture can also present a risk of injury if it isn't handled correctly. Removal companies have equipment and working methods for handling and transporting different types of household items.

Several factors can affect the price quoted by a removal company. The volume of belongings being moved is an important consideration, while the distance travelled, access to each property, the number of workers required and any storage or packing services can also affect the cost.

Ask for a written quotation that clearly explains the charges and services included. You may be able to reduce the cost by doing your own packing and supplying boxes and other packing materials. However, if you'd rather avoid packing everything yourself, ask removal companies to include a packing service in their quotes so you can compare the additional cost.
