Removal Quotes – Full Guide
If you have a house or office removal ahead of you, you have probably realised that is not an easy task. There is so many things to do and plan and arrange for (see our removal checklist), when it comes to moving house. It may be a good idea to use a removal company or at least find a few removal quotes and see what is being offered. Professional movers usually offer a full set of services, which will get most or even all of the planning and hard work off your shoulders.

What to Avoid?
First thing you should remember – unless you do not care about the well-being of your belongings, do not use man and a van companies. Although they may offer cheap removals, it is not worth the risk. Let’s look at this closer. Since their prices are so low in most cases, they will not have professional moving equipment such as quilted sofa covers, tv and screen covers, trolleys, removal wardrobe boxes etc. The cost of the equipment isn’t the only costly thing; the professional training makes the team well prepared and careful, and the pure incentive of high wages plays a major role and motivate movers to work more efficiently. Man and van companies simply cannot afford those things, even if their intentions are the best they could.

What To Look For?
So far you know what to avoid, let’s take a look at what should you look for when searching for moving quotes?
Every qualified and reputable removal company will have its mark on the internet. Therefore you will be able to find a lot of unbiased information away from their own website. Always check reviews on the external websites, not on the company’s website. Good sources are:
www.Checkatrade.com – Directory of trusted tradesmen.
Those are just some of the websites you can see reviews from a real customers.
Another step is to look for accreditations from either NGRS (National Guild of Removers and Storers) or BAR (British Association of Removers and Storers). We are a proud member of the first on NGRS.
