• Inventory
    The key to a successful move is organisation.  Make a household inventory, a list for each room in the house cataloguing every item. Use our quote form to help you.
  •  Utilities
    Inform your electricity, gas, water, telephone, cable / satellite, broadband suppliers you are moving and arrange for utilities at your new property.  Don't forget to record those meter readings, add that to the Move Day Check List!
  • We're Moving
    Ask us for your for your free New Address Notification postcards, they're handy to let friends and family members know your new address and phone numbers.

    Let banks, credit card companies, local authorities, know your new details.

    Inform the schools, the new Local Education Authorities and any clubs that your family belong to.

    Set up and pay for the Post Office to redirect your mail for 6 months, click here for more details.

    Back up the important files on your computer and keep it safe.
  • Keep It Tidy
    Have a look in the garage, cupboards, lofts and basement for items that are no longer needed

    Check for flammable and dangerous goods, they cannot be shipped under any circumstances.

    Try to use all the contents of the fridge / freezer, larder, then defrost and clean.  Most food items cannot be moved.
  • Packing The Van
    We will pack your belongings into the van, using our experience to ensure your possessions arrive safe and sound.

    If your move involves an overnight stay, remember to pack extra clothes and toiletries for the stay.

    The last thing to be packed should be the essentials; a kettle, tea, coffee and biscuits.  Other items that should be easily accessed are vacuum cleaner and the kids box.
  • Pets
    We do not move pets, please consider how you're going to transport your pets and re-house them at the new address.
  • Kids
    Try to involve the kids as much as possible so they are looking forward to their new home, community and school.

    Please make sure your children are supervised at all times while we are at work.  There will be some heavy items being transported and this is not a safe environment for excited children.

    Have a box of toys for the children to help keep them occupied, this should be one of the last items loaded and first removed.
  • Arriving
    Keep a key for your new house on you at all times.

    Record your meter readings for the domestic services and check they are switched on and working.

    If you're arriving late in the day, ensure the bedrooms are fit for use and the curtains are up.
