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.
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.
Ask whether the survey is in person or by video, who carries the insurance, and what the cancellation policy is. Confirm the deposit amount, accepted payment methods, and the deadline for the final balance. Verify the company registration, DOT-style licence number, and references from recent customers in your area.
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.
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.
Document any damage with photos before the crew leaves and note it on the delivery receipt. File a written claim within 7 to 14 days, attaching the inventory list and proof of value. If the company is unresponsive, contact your insurance provider or the relevant consumer protection authority. Keep all receipts for emergency expenses.
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.
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.
Request doorframe protectors, floor runners, and blankets for the staircase. A good crew uses heavy duty blankets, rubber bands, and hard plastic corner guards on items such as dressers and fridge freezers. If your home has new timber flooring or freshly painted walls, mention it so the crew uses extra padding rather than dragging dollies across the surface.
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.
