Frequently Asked Removals & Storage Questions
Yes, we can do the removal of individual items as well. We can wrap, pack and ship almost anything. Why not check out our specialist removal page.
Specialist packing for bespoke furniture or more fragile items will always be discussed separately at the time of your survey.
Unless our quote includes a packing service, then it is is the customer’s responsibility to pack in advance.
If you are packing yourself, then we offer one simple rule of thumb. If it will fit in a box, it goes in a box. We offer several sizes of boxes and packing materials on our online shop.
If the item is too big for a box, then you can leave it for one of them removal men to carry.
Another point to note when packing is to ensure you don’t overload the boxes. If you can’t lift the box, then removal men won’t lift the box. So ensure any boxes you pack can be lifted by yourself. Don’t go filling a large box full of books and expect our team to lift it. Use a small box for things like books.
There is no charge for the carpet protectors and this is used and highlighted on the quotes as a standard practice as part of the removal process.
As Removal Men we do not have sufficient training or licences to disconnect appliances.
This includes dishwashers, washing machines, light fittings and any gas appliances such as ovens or cookers.
However. Our sister company Purdie Property Maintenance. Are indeed qualified and fully insured to disconnect and reconnect any and all of your domestic appliances.
Just ask your surveyor to add in a connection/disconnection cost when quoting for your removal.
