Home removals is a business like no other. We are the final part of your moving cog, but perhaps the most personal. The stages you have gone through to get this part can be incredibly stressful: making the decision to move, deciding which area, how far away it is from work/shops/schools/transport, viewing potential new homes, bidding for them and not getting them, bidding again and getting lucky, sorting mortgages and solicitors. THEN getting your house ready for viewing, choosing an estate agent, countless viewings, offers, counter offers, crossing fingers for that huge offer, closing dates, offer acceptance, and breathe…for 6-8 weeks until moving day…. unless it all falls through and you start again.
It doesn’t always happen like this but you get the idea. It’s a very stressful time for anyone. And after all this, you know have to choose a local Removal company.
There are very few, if any, industries where you put your trust of a company and its employees in such a personal way. Removals is an intimate couple of days. They come into your home, pack up all your valuables, collections, favourite mugs, sentimental ornaments, family pictures, granny’s tea set, kiddo’s lego, and your dad’s handmade furniture. All wrapped and packed safely in removal boxes and loaded securely into the vehicles for delivery. All with care and without judgement. It really is unique. It’s an industry built on trust, empathy, reliability, expertise and experience.
So, you have already been through the stress, the expense, the roller coaster of emotions to get to this point you need to get the right removal company in. Will any old man and van do? Sure, if you are looking for someone who isn’t particularly reliable, doesn’t have the proper capacity and not very experienced, then there are many options out there for you. You may save a few quid at the same time. However, this is probably not a route you wish to go down. What if something goes wrong? (and unfortunately, sometimes things can go wrong)? Are they adequately insured? Will they turn up on the day? A proper and established removal company is always the better option. It may be more expensive but you pay for what you get in this business.
Eventually, removal day presents itself. The excitement, the apprehension, today is the day, you have to be out of your house by 12pm, are your removal team with you? 8:00, 8:15, 8:30, there they are stuck in a little traffic but they are here thank God, RELIABILITY is key! They crack on, the poor removal puns are flowing, you keep the team well hydrated, the whistle of the kettle sounding in the background. The team have done well, your loaded by 11:30 and ready to get on the move, do one last whip around the house with a hoover, and off they go to your new home with all your worldly belongings whilst you say cheerio to your old home and close a chapter in your life, ready to start a new one. All with the confidence that your removal company will see you over the line. Of course, there may be a wait for keys on the day but we can all blame the solicitors for that!
So, remember:
– Trust
– Empathy
– Reliability
– Expertise
– Experience
The core reasons you pick a local, highly recommended, professional removal company. An industry like no other!
