A professional removal will not only save you time but money too

Moving takes time. Time costs money. Money paid for peace of mind.

Depending on the size of your property, packing bits and bobs in to boxes can take anything from a matter of months to a couple of days. Then there’s the loading and unloading of your chosen vehicle – it’s a time-consuming affair. Yet, a removal company specialises in these are areas. Pitmans’ expertise lies in removals and storage. However, our packing service allows customers to enjoy peace of mind knowing all their bits and pieces are safe and sound.

Besides packing and loading, other issues can cost you money or delay your progress.

You might find furniture is harder to manage than you once thought, or that you need extra protection due to bad weather. All this and more can hinder the unprepared – but Pitmans is never not prepared. It is our job, after all! Hiring a removal company helps alleviate a stressful situation. Our services can prove particularly effectual if you have new owners ready and waiting in the wings to move in . . .

Before requesting a quote, ensure your removal company know about restricted access.

Tight spaces or any other factors that’ll affect our ability to complete a seamless move is integral to hear ahead of time. Once we have the details, our team can break them down and estimate the costs. This would include the hourly rate, mileage costs, packing and insurance. Plus, the number of goods, the distance travelled, size of the crew and speed of packing will also play a role in deciding the total cost. As a general rule, removal companies charge approximately £400 to move items from a one-bedroom property. A four-bedroom property will cost around £1,000. If packing is added on top, you can expect to pay between £150-£400 – but this all depends on your property.

A removal company know the best ways to move around

You might have moved on multiple occasions, but this is our livelihood.

We know that no move is as straightforward as moving from A-B. Some people may have to find temporary accommodation in C before crossing back to B. Yet, in doing so, they might have to find a home for their belongings. Many reputable removal companies provide storage services. Pitmans provides container storage, meaning your belongings are safe from the elements whilst you find a roof for your head.

Up against the clock? Date changed last minute? We’ve encountered all sorts of issues.

Problems do happen. They are often not deliberate and are indeed innocent mistakes or unfortunate circumstances. Whether it’s the weather or a chink in the chain, your chosen removal company is there for you. Whatever the issue, they will deal with it calmly and professionally, allowing you to focus on other crucial elements. This is because each member of a removal company is trained to spot any potential problems and will be able to deal with them as and when they arise. 

Check whether your removal company has adequate insurance cover for your belongings.

Most homes have high-value possessions. Check whether they need special packing and whether the removal company’s insurance has any terms and conditions. For example, some policies might outline that they refuse to cover goods that weren’t packed by members of their team. Should you choose to do some packing yourself, whilst it might save on costs, steer clear of packing any breakables. Remember, the removal firm’s insurance will not cover items that you have packed.
