How do I know if I am using a good removal company?

There are several factors to consider when choosing a good removals company. Ensuring they are members of BAR; the British Association of Removers is a reliable yardstick.

Members are highly regulated and accountable. They should therefore provide with the best service available. BAR has an independent arbitrator should you have any complaints with your move.

We would also recommend checking out reviews for your chosen company. This will allow you to see previous customers’ experiences and will give you a good understanding of the level of service they provide.

When do I pay for my move?

You should pay for your move prior to your move date which is general practice 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.

Visit their website for further information if you have any concerns.

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?

Although we do our best to move all your household items, there are a few things we are not permitted by law or for safety reasons to transport.

Flammable items, lithium batteries, oil-based paints or anything that may cause harm to the load or vehicle, house plants (for international moves) and pets of any kind.

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 all you need do is ask.

How can I save money on removals costs?

The best way to save a little on your move is to move less items.

Decluttering is an excellent way to do this.

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 moving to a smaller home or to a European or international destination.

Do you have storage facilities?

Yes, we have storage facilities at all 19 of our branch depots.

We provide dedicated, secure, dust-free wooden pallet containers for you to store those excess household items, until such time as you might need them.

As you only pay for the space that you occupy it is a cost-effective way of de-cluttering your home.

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.

This will give you plenty of time to get everything organised before the big moving day.
