How to choose a removals company

Sponsored Post¦ Moving house is incredibly stressful. We moved to a 3 bedroom house when we were expecting Reuben and I swore I never wanted to move house again. While they can’t take away all the stress that comes with buying or renting a house, removals companies can make the whole moving process a whole lot easier. Yet there are a lot of companies around, so how do you choose the right one?

Research removals companies

I can’t stress this enough, do your research! Ask any friends or family who have recently moved about which removals company they used and if they were happy with their experience. Also look online at removals companies. Get a feel for them on their website and social media pages, paying attention to reviews people have left them.

Check that they provide all the services you need. Also double check that they cover the required area. There’s no point trying to use The Man Van London if you’re in Huddersfield!

Get quotes from removals companies

Once you’ve done your research, narrow it down to 3 removals companies and ask them for a quote. Make sure that you give as much detail as possible and check again that they provide everything you need from a removals company. The quotes given should be fairly similar in an area, whether you searched for something like ‘cheap removal service in London‘ or ‘removal service in London’. Ensure that there will be no hidden costs, but equally see if they offer any add-ons that would be useful to you.

Questions you need to ask

Before agreeing to hire a company, there are a few more things to check.

  • Will there be availability for the date/s you need?
  • What is the policy if your move is delayed?
  • What are you and they insured for?

You should now be in much better stead to choose the right removals company for you!
