Examples of The Worst Home Removal Adventures

By Greg Crowch on August 1, 2012 in Tips for Your Day

home removals LondonIf you conduct a survey amongst the population of England about their house removal experience, you will find almost noone to share a positive story with you. That does not apply for the ones that have used the services of a professional home removals London company, of course. In the majority of the cases when tenants have decided to do that heavy duty job by themselves they have suffered a lot. Here are one of the most common nightmare removal cases:

1) Lack of packaging boxes – Many people call for removal services but do not rent out packaging boxes thinking that they could just throw their stuff in the removals van. In fact , they can, but the risk to damage all of their belongings if they are not wrapped well is 99%. Not to mention that in this case the loading process will take much more time than it normally will, so they will have to pay the removals agency a double or triple price because most of the removals assistants work at an hourly wage.

2) Lack of time – Humans tend to think that they are good at multi-tasking and often overestimate themselves when it comes to dealing with domestic work and packing. But the truth is that if no professional help is used the time for packing takes at least 2 days even for a studio flat. The reason for that is simple – when people pack they start finding souvenirs, pictures or other stuff that remind them of past events and spend a lot of time lost in their memories about times long gone. Professional home removals London agents, however, will be totally neutral and will finish with everything in just a few hours.

3) Lack of structure – People who have no experience in home removals tend to have no algorithm and structure for packing stuff. They often start from the kitchen appliances, continue with books, then move to clothes and then get back to the kitchenware, then back to their bedrooms…. It really looks chaotic and definitely takes more time.

So if you want fast and efficient work done you better not count on you but on someone professional when moving to a new home.
