They’ll do the hard work…
If you haven’t got much stuff to move, just a simple man and van service will do the job and save you money. But if you’ve got lots of bits and pieces, large furniture and numerous boxes to move then it’s a lot better to go for a larger firm who can pack your furniture up in a bigger lorry, and make the most out of their space. They will effectively do the whole job for you, whereas a man and van service will load up and move you, once you have packed. But by doing so they will take off the stress of moving heavy objects and therefore you won’t have to lift a finger after packing up your goods. Some man and van services do offer packing as an add-on, just discuss your options before you sign. Ensure the man and van company you hire know what you are taking so they can plan your move, without this information, they can’t help you.

They will also be able to advise you on the right day to move, the right time to move, give you any extra information or answer any questions you may have associated with removals on a whole. They are professionals, they know about removals and they will be happy to help you whether you have a large load of goods or a small amount to move.  

They’ll have a good reputation…

What do I need to do?
