Removals

The earlier the better.

While we can sometimes accommodate a last-minute booking (usually if there has been a cancellation in the meantime) if you want to guarantee our availability on a given date, we would need between 2 and 4 weeks notice.

The short answer is: we don’t know.

Different streets and different councils have different rules and regulations regarding large vehicles parked on them during the daytime. Ultimately, the responsibility for any permits lies with you, the customer, so we recommend checking with your local council once you’ve booked your moving day with us.

Every scenario is different.

Much of that depends on the distance between your current house and your new home and the traffic conditions we can expect between them. Other than that, assuming everything has been dismantled, packed up, and is ready to go, we would normally expect to load a full house worth of belongings in between 60-90 minutes, with a similar time for unloading at the other end.

Everything that can save the time, can save the money.

Anything you can do to speed up the loading process will be helpful, including taking apart large pieces of furniture. However, we understand that not all our customers are able to do so, and are happy to assist with these items on the day. All we ask is that you inform us of it at time of booking, so we can work out the additional time and cost associated with it.

You just need to ask.

We are able to supply you with all the packing requirements that you have, from card board boxes, blankets and tape, if you would like some help deciding what you need then we do offer simple packaging packages, set number of boxes and tapes, feel free to contact us and ask and we will be happy to help you.

Not at all.

If you’re happy putting all of your belongings into boxes and so on, then feel free to do so yourself. Many of our customers find this an exhausting experience, both physically and emotionally, and rely on our team of professionals to handle it for them.

Of course!

Our packing service isn’t an ‘all or nothing’ deal. If you just need a few of the more delicate or difficult items securely wrapping and packing, we can do that for you, and leave you to the rest.

Will you only pack for a removals job?

Not at all. If you’re making use of our self-storage facility, then we’re just as happy to help pack your belongings ready for storage as we are to do it prior to a house move.

We can't go that far.

Our insurance does not cover accidental damage whilst packing your items. Whilst we take every care with your belongings, particularly those you have highlighted as being valuable or fragile, any breakages will be recoverable under your own contents insurance.

We will not do any sorting or separating.

If you hire us to pack up a room, then that is what we will do – everything wrapped and packed safely, in as few boxes as possible, without questioning what should go in and what shouldn’t. If you want to do a clear out of your old stuff – that needs to happen before we get there!
