Most removal firms work by volume of the items. To ensure you are provided with the correct vehicle, your items will be listed by a surveyor who will visit your home to discuss your requirements (No charge should apply for a survey) This is a great time for you to meet your prospective removal company face to face, and ask any questions or address any concerns that you may have regarding your move.

It is always advisable to carry out a final sweep of your home, checking all cupboards and draws making sure nothing important is left behind. However this should not be an opportunity to pack extra items that are not needed. Moving home is a great opportunity to de clutter and get rid of any old or unused items. Always try to donate as much as possible to local charities.
