You have actually been clearing your mess and packing up your items, but your removal price estimate was more costly than you expected. Here’s what impacts the cost of a move, and what you can do about it.

What could make my home move expense more?

We work very difficult with our removal partners to try and ensure you get a precise quote when using reallymoving, however there are always going to be a few scenarios that can include costs to a home move.

We advise asking your removal team for getting a ‘removal survey ‘, where a member of the removal group will come and examine your home. This way they can see simply just how much things you have and can accurately estimate how huge a van you’ll require and how big a group.

Arrange Your House Removal Dublin

Here are a few things that can have an effect on the cost of your home move:

Being on a high floor without any lift

If there are lots of stairs to get to your flat (and no lift), it’s going to cost you more to move. This is for one of two factors. Either it will take longer to move everything, so you’ll pay for the extra time, or the removal company will employ more people to speed up the move, however you’ll pay for a larger group.

It is among those unfortunate things that can’t truly be avoided. Some individuals may want to try and take a lot of the products downstairs themselves in the hopes of accelerating the procedure, but remember that you have actually worked with experts who understand how to bring heavy or difficult products effectively without putting themselves or your items at risk.

Parking range from the property

It might not be your fault, however if the removal team can’t park the van near your property, it’s going to take them longer to pack, which will cost you more.

Set up any authorizations or parking gain access to in advance if you can. Whether that means applying to the council for licenses or talking with your neighbours about blocking their driveway, the more you prepare, the easier it will be.
Do not forget this applies to the property you’re moving into, as well as the one you’re leaving– making or obstructing the roadway life difficult for your brand-new neighbours isn’t going to make the very best impression.

Disassembly and reassembly

Verify ahead of time how much disassembly and reassembly will cost– do not assume that those additional services are included in your quote.

You can, obviously, choose to dismantle items yourself and cut the costs, but if you are worried about doing this, it’s finest to leave it to your removals firm and just take on the extra expense.

As this is an extra service, constantly remember to schedule it beforehand. Otherwise the timings your removal team will have worked out will be wrong, the move will take longer and you’ll end up paying more.

Garden items

When looking around your home, it’s so simple to forget the garden and miss it out from your quote. Additional items like garden furniture or a shed filled with tools is instantly going to increase your expenses.
Work out in advance whether you prepare to take specific structures (greenhouses, sheds, playhouses, climbing frames) with you when you move, and whether you’ll be disassembling them yourself.

Keep in mind also that some items can’t truly be moved by removals firms– open cans of paint, fertiliser, certain chemicals and plant pots often won’t be accepted. Other products can be moved by removals firms but might need upkeep or preparation in advance– for instance, if you want a removals firm to carry a lawnmower, it needs to be empty and relatively clean. Make sure to check what conditions your removals firm will need you to satisfy for the transport of items like these.
