We advise calling the removal company as early as possible into the process. It is usually recommended that you give the movers at least 4 to 6 weeks’ notice. This will allow us to cater for any special requirements you might have. It will also allow plenty of time to arrange your move and to ensure that everything you request can be delivered to your exact needs.

This will vary depending on the distance, weight, weather, road conditions and other factors. If you’re moving locally our moving estimator will provide you with a guaranteed flat rate.

This will depend on where your goods are to be shipped from and their destination. If you are moving locally, our prices will be based on an hourly rate, and long distance moves will be calculated on the distance, weight and volume. Mr. Moving will work with you to gain all of the information they need to give you a firmer idea of the costs when they give you a quote. Our quote will cover your full moving requirements, and any storage or packing services you might need.

On the day before your move, a member of our team will contact you to confirm the time slot along with any last-minute details. We also suggest that you don’t make any alternative arrangements for that day such as appointments as this might delay your move should the appointment etc. over run.

When it comes to time to load, our drivers will create a full inventory of all of the items in your house. The inventory will be used to keep track of all of your items on moving day. When the move is complete, you’ll be able to check off each item using a numbered list as it enters your home.

When your driver arrives at your new location, they will give you any inventory check off list. As each item is delivered, you will be able to check it off. In the case of loss or damage, our driver will make a note of it on the inventory list. This will help you to make a claim should that be necessary.

We suggest that you are there during the collection and delivery part of your relocation. However, if you cannot be there yourself, it is recommended that you have somebody present that is familiar with the shipment so they can help give instructions to crew on moving day.

It is essential that our movers have proper breaks during their working day. Each member of our team is given a 15-minute break for each three continuous hours that they work. Our drivers will also have a lunch break during the day; they usually bring refreshments with them for this purpose. However, our teams do welcome refreshments during the course of the day such as water or other soft drinks, as they are often working in hot temperatures.
