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

Being on a high flooring with no lift

It’s going to cost you more to move if there are lots of stairs to get to your flat (and no lift). This is for one of two factors. Either it will take longer to move whatever, so you’ll pay for the extra time, or the removal company will hire more individuals to speed up the move, however you’ll pay for a bigger team.

It is among those regrettable things that can’t truly be prevented.
