Trusted Movers in Gillingham

What your removal companies will expect from you the customernnConfirmation of the moving day. Confusion can occur with a misunderstanding about this where a date has been penciled in but not confirmed.nBeing organised and packed up if a company is not offering this service.nPayment in full on the day or often before.nHowever you find your removal company be honest with them. They are able to give you a more accurate quotation, allocate the right sized vehicle and enough men to do the move if they know exactly what the removal entails. Even the smallest thing can have a bearing on the time spent on the move. If you already know that the wardrobes and beds had to be taken into the house through the bedroom window or that you have altered the stairs since the furniture was taken up, tell them and they will be happy to bring along tools, ladders, extra men etc. Also remember that the amount of furniture and belongings you write down onto an inventory form will dictate the size of the removal lorry allocated to your move.nIf you are having various company representatives to come and visit make sure you are prepared. They will want to look everywhere, under the stairs, inside cupboards and even under your beds. Anything that needs to go with you must be put on your inventory form or shown to the company representatives. It you do call up and ask several removal companies to give you a quote it is very important that you ask them all the same questions and request the same services, if not then you will receive quotes that not only vary widely, but are for completely different jobs. Don’t forget the garage or the things outside, some plant pots/troughs can be extremely heavy, but again if you point these out they will be all taken into account. Any flammable substances like tins of paint, creosote, paraffin, matches, gas bottles and similar things will not be allowed to go on the van as this will invalidate any insurance cover.nAnything that you are planning to dispose of, try and do so before any representatives visit.nIf however you suddenly wanted any unwanted items e.g. if you couldn’t sell or just changed your mind then you must let the removal company know. This will allow them to work out whether they will need a larger vehicle . The van and staff (porters) assigned to your move is calculated on the basis of what the representative has been shown or what you have stated on an inventory form.nThe most common items missed when showing a removal company representative around are outside plants, these actually take up the most room in the removal van as you are unable to stack anything on top of them, so don’t forget to show them and the loft, shed and the garage.nnPhotos courtesy of :nS.W.Leach & SonsnSmooth Moves Removals nnFor your nearest accredited Move Assured member visit www.moveassured.com nYour Assurance of a Successful Move...
