Posted on 28/08/2014
So you have decided to hire professional help to assist you with your move. This can help to ease the stress of moving day, allowing you to focus on the various other tasks the day will throw at you. The benefits of hiring a Lambeth removal company are varied and many in number, professionals will always be able to provide a better service than you or your friends and family. However, there will inevitably be differences between SW9 removal companies. These may be in price, but also in a host of other factors. As such, it is important to try and shop around for the best deal that is available for your Lambeth house removal. Below are a number of tips that will help you make this search a successful one.
Firstly, you may well not be aware that there are a number of websites that will help you in your search. Obviously individual Lambeth removal companies will have a website of their own, but there are also comparison websites for removal companies that work in a similar fashion to car insurance and mortgage comparison sites that you see so often advertised. They will ask you to input some basic information about your house, such as the number of bedrooms, total number of rooms, potential removal dates and the area to asses and try and give you a quote on the spot for how much this removal may cost. This process likely just uses a computer algorithm, so is not likely to be the most accurate estimation of what a job will cost, but it does have uses. Firstly, it can give you a ball park estimate of what it will cost if you have never moved before, though this is likely to vary. But perhaps more importantly, it will give you a list of local removal companies that you can contact individually to find the best quote. It is free and instant and puts you in contact with a number of companies who can do that job.
However, this isn’t all you can do to shop around. Many companies offer a face to face valuation service where they will send a representative of the company out to your house to value you much the removal will cost. This is likely to be much more accurate than an online quote as they can assess access, your road and parking situation and many other factors that would make the price fluctuate. This service is usually completely free, too. This has the added benefit of establishing a relationship with your removal company, allowing you to create a personal bond, rather than just being a faceless customer. Also, a face to face valuation will show that a company is willing to go the extra mile for you and your satisfaction, something you will want to find in your SW9 removal company.
Beyond the price negotiations, it is also important to look at the contract which is being offered to you. This is an important part of shopping for the best quote. Most companies will offer some kind of insurance, but the prerequisite for proof of how comprehensive this is insurance is will likely vary from company to company. Furthermore, you must look at their common operating hours, overtime payments and other potential added fees. With all of this combined, you may then be able to make an informed and logical decision on which removal company best suits your needs for the move, in both a financial and practical manner.
