Removal Companies

When moving house, the last thing you want to worry about is the logistics, there is enough to worry about!

Therefore, a full-service removal company might well be the answer. They can take care of all the hard work of logistics, helping to pack, transport, and unpack your possessions into your new home.

Of course, I am sure you have plenty of questions, such as what do they actually do? Do they pack and unpack? And of course, how much do they cost?

Here at Logisto we will help to answer all of these questions for you whilst providing a directory of removal companies covering all corners of the UK.

Let’s dive straight in – What does a full service move include?

Simply put, everything. From packing your possessions properly, to transporting them, unpacking and putting your furniture into your new rooms, they will take care of the full package. We would expect any good removal company to cover the following:

• In house moving estimate
• Packaging of your possessions, ready for transportation
• Loading of the items into the truck
• Transportation to your new home
• Careful unpacking of your possessions
• Placing of your furniture in your new home

Some full-service removal companies may also offer the following:

• Disassembly and reassembly of furniture
• Cleaning services
• Storage
• Household rubbish removal

How much will it cost me?

Good question and one that is unfortunately difficult to answer. There are numerous factors to consider including the distance to the new house, the amount that needs to be packed, any specialist packaging that is required and of course the size of the property. Below is a simple guide to give you a steer as to what to expect:

1 bedroom apartment: £650+

2 bedroom apartment: £800+

3 bedroom house: £1100+

4 bedroom house: £1300+

5 bedroom house: £1600+

How long does the whole process take?

Much like the question of cost, this will vary significantly dependent on whether you are a minimalist or a hoarder!

Below is an approximation as to the time required to pack up varying sized dwellings:

1 bedroom apartment: 2-4hrs

2 bedroom apartment: 3-5hrs

3 bedroom house: 6-10hrs

4 bedroom house: 8-12hrs

5 bedroom house: 10-12hrs

How do I find a full-service removal company and what should I look out for?

When selecting a provider, it is always sensible to do some due diligence. Check for reviews on Google, or independent sites and most importantly, check that they have the relevant insurances to ensure your property is covered in the event of the worst-case scenario.

At Logisto, we have made it our life goal to build the UK's best Logistics directory and knowledge base and so you will find details on removal companies that operate nationally, as well as localised and regional providers. We even have companies offering international removals and so we are confident you can find the right company for your removal.
