The time has finally come for you to start preparing for your move and contacting at least 3 moving companies in the UK, that will be able to provide a fast, friendly and professional moving service for you and your family. Moving to a new place is not something you will do all the time. You will need to plan, prepare and organise your home move which can take months to complete.

One thing to bear in mind when moving to a new place is that it can be extremely stressful, especially when moving from a large home and with a large family. If you have tons of furniture to be moved, it may be a good idea to seek a professional home moving company that can help with the packing and the organising of your move.

You will also need to consider how much help you will need for your home move. For example, Do you need help packing your home? Do you have all the boxes and packaging materials or will you need assistance purchacing these items. Do you need storage? Do you need help dismantling furniture or will you do this your self. Do you have specialist items or furniture that requires extra care? Decide how much of the work you will do, as it will make life easier for you when contacting UK moving companies.

A good way to find reliable moving companies near you is to arrange a free home survey. You will want to ask your moving company if they will provide a free of charge, no obligation home survey so that they can see exactly what you are moving to your new home. A home survey is a great time to meet your moving companies face to face where you can discuss your move in much more detail. Face to face interactions with your moving companies will give you a feel for the company and help you to establish if this is the moving company you would like to move with or a moving company you could trust with your life long belongings.

When your moving companies are completing your home survey, its important that you show them all rooms in your house, including attic, garage, sheds and garden. Moving companies will want to see all items being moved and check all rooms and furiniture within your house. Once your survey has been completed your moving company will then provide you with a quote for your move.

Although a home survey is a great opportunity to meet your movers, you can arrange a free video survey with your moving companies, which in return helps to reduce the moving companies carbon footprint on the environment.
