3. 5 Choose a member of the
British Association of Removers
The most important thing to consider when moving home is to choose a
removal company that is right for you. The British Association of Removers is
the industry’s trade association and members have to meet strict service
criteria. Members of the BAR are regularly inspected to ensure that their
facilities and staff meet these high standards.

4. 4 Remember To Plan Your Parking Permit
Ensure that you agree with your removals company who is going to be
responsible for arranging the permit. If you prefer to arrange the permit
yourself, you will need to contact your local council by contacting them either
by telephone or online to organise a parking permit for move day. The permit
will be posted to your address and will need to be displayed in the
windscreen of the lorry.

Tell your removal company about
limited access and narrow streets
Other problems that removal truck could face are narrow streets or limited
access to roads. Due to the size of removal trucks, they may struggle to fit
down some roads so in this case, your removal company may have to use a
shuttle vehicle. Use of a shuttle vehicle may increase the price of your move,
so ensure your removal company explains the operational details.

6. 2 Move Mid-week
The costs of your removal vary depending on the size of the consignment
and where it is going to and from. However there are many variables that
could determine the price of your move. If it is an international move,
shipping or airfreight prices will impact the overall cost of your move, for
example if inflation causes the cost of shipping to go up then the price of
your move will also increase.

Other factors that may cause problems on the day of your move could be
school holidays or other events. Events happening around London could
shut roads around your home, so you need to ensure that there are no
events happening around your location on the day. These could cause
significant problems as the removal lorry would not be able to get near the
property and may result in the move not being able to go ahead on that day.
