About Removals
Insurance and liability for your belongings
All licensed carriers carry basic liability, but coverage is often limited per kilogram, which rarely reflects actual item value. Ask for full-value protection or third-party moving insurance for high-value items like pianos, antiques, or electronics. Photograph valuable pieces before the move and keep a signed inventory list.
How long a typical home move takes
A one-bedroom flat usually takes 3 to 5 hours with 2 movers. A three-bedroom house typically requires 6 to 9 hours with 3 movers. Packing, disassembly, and access delays add time. Ask the company for an estimated duration and confirm whether delays caused by the crew are billed or absorbed.
Choosing between hourly and fixed price
Hourly rates work well for small, local moves with few items and easy access. Fixed quotes suit larger moves with predictable volume and longer distances. Ask whether fuel, mileage, insurance, and VAT are included in the rate. Clarify the minimum booking time, usually 2 to 4 hours, and the overtime rate per crew member.
How removals prices are calculated
Most companies charge based on the volume in cubic metres, the distance, and the number of crew members. Access difficulty, parking restrictions, and the number of stairs also affect the final price. Request an in-home or video survey rather than accepting an estimate based only on a verbal description. A binding written quote protects you from surprise charges.
What a removals service usually includes
A standard removals service covers loading your packed items onto the truck, transporting them to the new address, and unloading them at the destination. Many companies also offer packing, unpacking, furniture disassembly and reassembly, and temporary storage. Confirm in writing what is included before booking. Hidden exclusions like heavy items, long carries, or stairs often appear only on moving day.
Settling in and reporting hidden damage
Inspect boxes and furniture within 24 hours of delivery, because most policies require a damage claim within 3 to 5 working days. Photograph any issue next to the box label so the serial number is visible. If something is broken, email the inventory copy, the photos, and a short description of the incident to the company before unpacking further.
Checklist for the final walkthrough
Before the truck leaves, walk through every room and open every cupboard with the team leader. Check loft, garage, garden shed, and behind curtains. Tick each item on the inventory sheet and note any pre existing scratch with a photo and a short description. Keep one copy in the cab and one with you, then sign and date both.
Pet and child safety on the day
Keep cats and dogs in a closed room with water and a sign on the door so no door is opened during the carry. Children should be with a relative or neighbour while heavy items cross the hallway. Movers cannot supervise minors, and a curious toddler near a loaded trolley is the most common cause of last minute delays or minor injuries during a move.
Seasonal demand and time of month
Prices rise between the 25th and the end of each month because leases expire, and again from late May through early September. A midweek move at the start of the month can be 10 to 20 percent cheaper. School holidays also push demand up, so if you can move on a Wednesday morning you will usually get a smaller team at a lower rate.
Payment methods and deposits
Most removal firms ask for a deposit between 10 and 25 percent to lock the date, paid by bank transfer or card. The balance is usually due by cash on arrival or card on completion. Avoid companies that demand 100 percent upfront or only accept cash with no receipt. A proper invoice should list VAT, the hourly or fixed fee, and any extra charges.
