A removal company is a massive part of your domestic removal, as they have the experience, man power, equipment and knowledge to get the job done in a safe and efficient way. However, you will be paying a lot of money for your removal services, and this means that you need to keep things present in your mind as to how you can get the best from them, to ensure that you are getting excellent value for money. If you are the type of person to always look for a bargain then you need to be careful here, as there will be plenty of low price offers around, but not many high value ones, and they are not the same thing! Have a look over the following tips on finding and getting the best form your removals firm.One of the main things to look out for when you are choosing your removals company is customer service, the way in which the company deal with you will say a lot about how you will be treated further down the line. You need a friendly, helpful and responsive company, who will be over backwards to ensure that you are getting a great service, with a smile. If the movers have hired a sulky individual who seems pretty uninterested in giving you a good deal, or even uninterested in talking to you, then the company will be unlikely to have very high standards throughout the rest of their business. However, do not write a company off because of one person, ask to speak to a manager or someone else before deciding, as you may have caught someone on a bad day. Have a look online at reviews, as these can be a great way to get an idea of how well a company has performed in the past. You will find that the results of the reviews will usually be mixed, and that you can’t completely trust all of them, but having a general overview of the opinions of the company’s previous customers will be a great way to get some idea of what you are in for. Make sure that a removal company gives you a quote only after they have visited the house. After all, what is the use of a price on a home removal if the movers have no idea how many packing boxes you are going to have? There is a trend amongst cheaper companies to offer online quotes, but the fact of the matter is that these are never going to be as accurate as they really need to be, and you will be hard pushed to find a company that will agree to the quote in writing having not even seen the place. If you need a packing service, you may well be able to work one in to the deal, if you have the bargaining skill required. Having had a look at a company’s reviews and some pull in terms of good quotes from other firms can give you a decent amount of leverage on price, especially if the company are in need of work. See what you can get, and push for a better deal, but don’t annoy anyone, or you may find that people no longer want to work with you! Ask a lot of questions in advance of booking the company, to make sure that they will supply you with things like packing supplies, the right removals vehicles, and advice on planning and preparation.
