Packing when moving home
When you're moving home, you've got options about how to prepare your belongings to arrive safely in your new home. Of course, we will provide you with boxes to help you pack everything for moving day, but you can also opt to have our team of specially trained experts pack all or some of your belongings for you.
Full or part packing service?
You can choose for us to pack all of your belongings for you, or we can pack just your kitchen or your display cabinet - the choice is yours. Speak with your move consultant to discuss all of the options for packing for your removal to ensure you select the service that's just right for your needs.
Professional removals packing service
Our removals packing services can save you a considerable amount of time and effort.
We offer a professional packing service which will give you the peace of mind that your belongings are kept safe and secure throughout the move. We can pack all your items and will pay special attention to fragile and unusual items. Or, if you prefer, we can pack just some of your belongings. The choice is yours - we're flexible!
Our men are experienced removal men who are fully trained in the art of packing - and they're DBS checked, too. See what our customers think of us!
Why should I choose to let a removal company pack my belongings?
Some clients dread getting packed before they move. It is time consuming, and many people worry they've not packed breakables well enough to prevent them from being damaged during the move.
If you'd like an independent view on what people think of having a packing service when moving home, there's a Mumsnet discussion about it.
There are many reasons people choose to have their removal company pack all or some of their belongings when moving home, including:
Time
Because most people tend to sort as they pack, it can take a long time to pack everything. Our men come prepared to simply pack what you tell them to pack - so they are able to quickly pack your belongings safely.
Busy parents with young children often don't have the time to devote to packing everything on their own - especially if the children are not old enough to help and require someone to keep an eye on them
People who work long hours or unusual schedules often don't have the time to ensure all of their belongings are safely packed away, ready for moving day
Disabled and those with limited mobility
Moving home is an exhausting and time-consuming task for everyone, and many of our customers with limited mobility or who are disabled have found a packing service to be invaluable to ensure they're prepared for moving day.
