"Yes that’s correct and even better if the removal company can visit and have a look properly."

"To get the most accurate removal quote it is best to list the items - large items (bedframes, dining room tables, chests of drawers etc), small items (vacuum cleaners, lawnmowers, etc) and how many boxes approximately (always over quote , if you think it’ll be 8 large boxes ask for a quote for 10) . A video or pictures does not always clearly show and you run the risk of the removal company adding extras - you also may get it cheaper in a list format as pictures can be deceiving."

"Yes because it depends on the size of the things that need moving and how difficult it is to get in or out of the property"
