About Removals
Moving fragile or high value items
Glass cabinets, mirrors, marble tops, and flat screen TVs over 55 inches need custom crating, which is usually quoted separately. Standard movers refuse to transport safes above 80 kg, pool tables, or upright pianos without a piano board and an extra technician. Insist on photo documentation before the move so any later claim is easier to settle.
Disassembly and reassembly of furniture
Ask whether the quote includes dismantling beds, wardrobes, tables and large shelving units. Most crews carry basic tools like Allen keys, a drill, and a socket set, but specialist fittings or glued joints often need a carpenter. Reassembly should take about 20 to 30 minutes per double bed and 45 minutes for a wardrobe with 4 panels.
Booking early and confirming the team size
Book your removals company at least 4 to 6 weeks before moving day, especially at month end or on Fridays. Confirm in writing how many crew members will arrive, because a 2 person team handles a small flat while a 4 person team is standard for a 3 bedroom house. One absent worker can extend the job by 2 to 3 hours.
Moving with heavy or specialty items
Pianos, safes, pool tables, and large aquariums require specialist handling and often extra crew members. Standard movers may refuse these items or charge a surcharge. Ask whether the company subcontracts specialty work and who carries the liability. Confirm that the destination access can physically accommodate the item.
Packing materials and who supplies them
Professional movers use heavy-duty boxes, acid-free tissue, bubble wrap, and wardrobe boxes with hanging rails. If you pack yourself, use double-walled boxes for books and dishes, and avoid overfilling. Ask whether the company supplies materials free, rents them, or expects you to buy them. Unused materials are usually refundable.
Common damage issues during a move
Scratched floors, dented door frames, and broken furniture joints are the most frequent complaints. Items packed poorly by the customer are usually excluded from claims. Ask the crew to use floor runners, door jamb protectors, and blankets. Photograph any pre-existing damage to walls and floors before the move begins.
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.
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.
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.
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.
