Man and Vans offer free surveys to assess the size of your upcoming move. On occasion we find that customer’s underestimate the amount of items they have in their home. It can quite often look like a few bits of furniture with a few boxes and you estimate a couple of hours for your move. If we are told this we can arrive without the proper resources needed to carry out the move quickly and efficiently.
We often receive calls a day before a move with worried customers explaining they have much more than first thought. Thus making a two man removal job more suited to three or possibly four. Moving home can be a stressful time so anything to reduce those stress levels can only be beneficial. Having your removal men arrive with insufficient material also runs the risk of having your precious items damaged.
With a professional there to assess the amount of materials required these problems will not occur. We advise organising your survey at least 3 to 4 weeks in advance, this gives enough time for your quote to be drawn up and any other details finalised e.g parking suspensions, materials. Putting these helpful hints in place will go a long way to setting up your new home with a smile.
