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

Being on a high flooring with no lift

If there are great deals 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 reasons. Either it will take longer to move everything, so you’ll pay for the additional time, or the removal company will work with more individuals to accelerate the move, however you’ll pay for a bigger group.

It is one of those unfortunate things that can’t truly be avoided. Some individuals might wish to take a lot and try of the products downstairs themselves in the hopes of accelerating the process, however remember that you’ve worked with specialists who know how to bring tough or heavy items effectively without putting themselves or your products at risk.

Parking distance from the property

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

If you can, set up any licenses or parking access ahead of time. Whether that means applying to the council for permits or talking with your neighbours about obstructing their driveway, the more you plan, the easier it will be.
Do not forget this applies to the residential or commercial property you’re moving into, along with the one you’re leaving– blocking the road or making life hard for your new neighbours isn’t going to make the very best impression.

Disassembly and reassembly

Verify in advance just how much disassembly and reassembly will cost– don’t assume that those extra services are consisted of in your quote.

You can, obviously, pick to take apart items yourself and cut the expenses, however if you are concerned about doing this, it’s finest to leave it to your removals firm and just shoulder the extra expenditure.

As this is an extra service, always remember to schedule it in advance. Otherwise the timings your removal group will have exercised 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. Extra products like garden furnishings or a shed loaded with tools is right away going to increase your costs.
Work out ahead of time whether you plan to take particular structures (greenhouses, sheds, playhouses, climbing up frames) with you when you move, and whether you’ll be dismantling them yourself.

Bear in mind also that some items can’t really be moved by removals firms– open cans of paint, fertiliser, particular chemicals and plant pots frequently won’t be accepted. Other items can be moved by removals firms but may require upkeep or preparation in advance– for example, if you want a removals firm to transfer a lawnmower, it requires to be fairly clean and empty.
