Removal Quotes: Questions and Answers

Removals Companies come in all shapes and sizes and the questions you ask should be based on what is important to you. We recommend asking about the following:

Professional qualifications, insurance, length of time trading, customer testimonials.

Your removal job will have specific requirements that removals companies need to take into account when providing a quote which can often only be determined by contacting you by phone or email.

By having a brief conversation with you to gain a more detailed description of your move (including inventory, parking, access etc) you will get the best and most accurate quote.

Our partner companies range in size and therefore there you will receive a range of quotes. Price is not necessarily the only factor to consider when making your decision.

For example, companies who have invested in professional qualifications and training may quote slightly higher but will have better qualified staff as a result.

Your decision should take into account all factors important to you, including price.

Removal companies often get booked up in advance so our advice is to be prepared and book as far in advance as possible.

Busy periods such as Fridays, Bank Holidays and School Holidays will always require additional notice.

Our removers work hard to provide the best quotes with no obligations but once you have booked a move with them, it is important to communicate with them as they will block the time out and turn down other work once they have confirmed a booking.

Being organised is key so the move goes smoothly! For example, if you are packing your own boxes up, then correctly labelling them and having them organised for the removers will save time at the other end.
