With more than 170 years of removals experience, we know that no two moves are alike. A personalised moving survey allows us to tailor our removal and storage solutions to your specific needs.
We offer our customers the flexibility to choose between a traditional Survey at Home or a convenient Video Survey, both conducted by our professional Moving Consultants, and both completely free. This ensures that all your moving needs are thoroughly discussed and catered to.
Call us on 0800 107 8422 as early as possible in your house moving process, so we can tailor the best moving experience for you.
A professional Move Consultant from our nearest office will visit you at home (at a time that suits you) and carry out a comprehensive moving survey of your household possessions. This will include anything that is buried in the garage or lurking in the attic.
During this moving survey, you can discuss any queries or concerns that you may have about moving home.
Once we have undertaken the moving survey we can then give you an accurate cost for your house move. We can also advise on all the aspects involved in moving house, including the best packing and wrapping options for your most precious or delicate items. Plus, we can talk to you about our more specialist removals services such as the hiring of cleaners, use of handymen to dismantle furniture as well as the various short or long term secure storage solutions available to you.
Our Consultants will also explain our full range of removals insurance, including late key waiver, to protect you from unexpected costs on the actual day of your move
