You can explore their experiences on our Trustpilot page or request references directly by contacting our team. These stories demonstrate our commitment to making every move smooth and stress-free, ensuring you feel confident and supported throughout your relocation journey.
Is it a good idea to get several quotations for my move?
Obtaining several quotations from removal companies is advisable for several reasons. First, it helps you compare prices and identify the most competitive rate that aligns with your budget. Additionally, evaluating different quotes gives you insights into the range of services offered, ensuring you choose a company that meets your specific relocation needs. By comparing coverage levels, insurance policies, and additional options like packing or storage, you can tailor your move and minimise stress. Ultimately, acquiring multiple quotations empowers you with better knowledge, control over your moving process, and can potentially save money.
What day is cheapest for removals?
Whilst there is no simple answer to this question, moving on a weekday between Monday and Thursday is generally cheaper. We can typically offer better rates on these days compared to weekends when demand is higher due to people having time off work. To get receive a more accurate price for your move be sure to get in touch on 02392 989287 and a member of our team will be happy to help.
Must I pay in advance for my removals service?
Payment is generally expected by the time of your moving date. This is the normal procedure for BAR-accredited companies in the industry. It is important to note that the fee is covered by an Advanced Payment Guarantee (APG) when you choose a BAR member for your move.
Do removal companies pack your stuff?
Yes, we can supply our customers with packing services. White & Company can provide professional packing services catered specifically to your home move, regardless of where you are relocating to. Our professional staff are highly trained to deliver the best packing service, helping to ensure your belongings are safely packed in clearly marked boxes. This service will safeguard your belongings, ensuring they arrive at your new home safe and sound.
What will removal companies not move?
There are a number of items that we will not be able to move. These primarily include any flammable items, lithium batteries, oil-based paints or anything that may cause harm to the load or vehicle. We are always happy to answer any questions you may have about your move, so if you are concerned about whether we will be able to move a specific item during your relocation be sure to ask us!
Should I tip removals men?
You are never expected to tip our removals team after your move. Whilst offering a tip to the team is appreciated, it is never a requirement and should always be done at your discretion. If you do wish to leave a tip you should give what you feel is reasonable in the circumstances. Our team will always provide you with the best possible service regardless of whether you tip or not!
How can I save money on removals costs?
Decluttering and limiting the number of belongings you move may help towards reducing your overall removals costs. By doing so, the overall number of boxes required may be significantly reduced. It’s also nice to move into a new home without too much excess clutter to find homes for, especially if you are downsizing.
How far in advance should I book my move?
It’s recommended that you book at least 4 to 6 weeks in advance of your planned moving date. During peak summer season, this can extend to 8 weeks or more, so be prepared well in advance. By doing so, this will give you plenty of time to get everything organised before the big moving day.
