Hiring a Manchester removals company vs moving house yourself
Unless you live in a small house or flat, it’s always worth hiring a professional removals company to help you move. Although packing up and shifting your stuff may not sound that difficult, there is an art to packing fragile items so that they’re properly protected and do not break in transit.
Removal workers will also know how much weight they can carry and will do so in a safe way, so you can avoid hurting yourself.
If you do get a quote from a company that isn’t able to visit your home in person, be as honest and accurate as you can when listing your possessions, and don’t forget the contents of a loft or garage.
How much does it cost to use a removals company?
A number of factors will determine the cost of using a removals company. The amount of goods being transported is a key consideration, but the distance travelled, size of crew and speed of packing will also play a role in deciding the total cost.
A good removals firm will explain their charges and how you might be able to lower the cost. Many firms will offer a discount if you source your own packing materials and help with the packing, for example.
