Whilst it is possible to provide a ball-park figure online as a quote, this figure should never be taken as anything like an accurate figure because there are so many variables that come into the equation. These can only become accurate after visiting your property and making a detailed analysis of exactly everything that is going to be moved, and everything that you might leave behind for any reason. First and foremost, you wouldn't want us to under or over-charge you, for obvious reasons and, from our point of view, getting the estimate wrong wouldn't do anything for our professional reputation.

Cost of Removals
It is not just the cost of the removal company that you would have to consider when it comes to relocating. After all, the overall amount of a man with van, when taken into account, can be quite steep. You also need to consider potential storage costs. If renting you need to consider providing a month's rent in advance as well as the bond which usually equates with a month's rent on top: so that's two months' rent to account for! If you are buying you need to consider the cost of solicitors' fees, the ...
... cost of conveyance and any costs the Estate Agent will require you to pay before they release the keys. Then, of course, there is the actual cost to the removal company for their services on the removal day.

The Services of a Professional Removal Company
No professional removal company is going to be so reckless as to offer you an estimate without coming to your house. This is the perfect time to ask all the questions that might be worrying you about the move. After all, you will have paid quite a lot of money for furniture or for that Art-Deco vase so you want to be sure that the operatives who are going to be handling your possessions have sufficient experience. You need a removal company that is operating within the law, fully insured and with terms and conditions that you can easily check. The representative can discuss with you what the removal company procedures are if anything should go wrong and how they can put it right.

Once evaluating the house and your property the professional removal company representative will take all the information away and within a day or so you will receive a properly typed estimate on the removal company's headed paper establishing the cost and setting out in writing the contract between you and the removal company. Included with this estimate should be a copy of the removal company's terms and conditions and insurance details. The estimate will have a contract page for you to sign and send back, making the arrangements between you and the removal company legally binding on both your side and theirs. Basically, the representative from the removal company will go through your home, room by room. Now is the time for you to ask all the questions you need to. It is during this visit to your home that you quietly decide whether you can build up trust in this kind of company: whether you suit them as well as whether they suit you.
