What to Look for Hiring a Quality Removal Company

What to Look for Hiring a Quality Removal Company

The average UK citizen is likely to move home seven times in their lifetime, according to a recent survey by the Independent Network business group, which means a lot of time spent looking for, negotiating with, and booking removal companies to assist them in moving house. With so many companies on the market, it can sometimes be tricky knowing which ones are good and which ones aren’t.

As one of London and Hertfordshire’s top removal companies, we understand the sort of expectations that our customers have when it comes to delivering a quality service, so we’ve put together the following list of some of the things you should keep an eye out for when hiring a removals firm.

Keep it local

It’s always best to choose a local removal firm for your move, if for no other reason than they will know the area, including all the fastest routes and useful shortcuts between your current home and your new one, making for a safer and swifter move. A local removal company also means you stand a better chance of a family member, friend, or work colleague having used them in the past, and being able to give you an honest appraisal of their work.

Know what you want before you call

Whichever removals company you choose, remember that they are working for you. Put together a brief list of your requirements before you make that first call and don’t be afraid to ask if they can accommodate your specific needs.

Insurance

It’s important to ensure that your belongings are covered throughout the removals process. Any decent removals company should have an insurance policy in place that covers your personal effects against fire, theft, and accidental damage for the duration of time that they are being moved from one house to the next. Most policies cover your items from the moment they are loaded onto the removals van, to the moment they are unloaded and deposited at your new home. It’s always worth checking that this is the case with your removals provider, so that you know where you stand.

Experience

When hiring a removal company, it’s important to know that they have the experience and the expertise to do the job well. With some – like Trux Removals for instance – you can figure that out from the length of their trading history (some 35 years and counting in our case). With more recently formed removal firms, you may have to dig a little deeper to discover just how much on-the-job experience their workers have.

Additional services

Sometimes you need more than just a help with the physical house move. Assistance with packing up your belongings or somewhere to put your items into storage while you settle down in your new house are both common examples. Many removal companies diversify their services, offering these kinds of facilities and more. If you’re going to need help with storage, packing, or whatever else you have in mind, it makes sense to have the same company handle the lot.
