Communication is key

Whilst you will never completely eradicate the stresses and strains associated with moving home, you can reduce the burden by employing the services of a removal company. For those who can afford it, the whole experience is almost bearable if you can get people to do the packing for you. Whatever you decide you will need to get your hands on some strong and reliable removal boxes, plenty of bubble wrap and lots of packing paper.

Nothing is ever free

A moving company will almost certainly offer to supply the boxes. Often they will include it in the price. If you can, get a price with and without the boxes. They may then say that they are free. They are not and, more importantly, they will probably only drop them off a couple of days before and want them back immediately after the move when you would prefer to unpack at your own pace. Besides, the ones they provide have often been used before and may not be up to the job. Better to be safe rather than sorry. We supply brand new sturdy packing boxes and other essential materials for both removal companies and the individual to use when moving house.

Why risk it?

Our philosophy is to introduce you to good quality but great value moving boxes, delivered to you through an integrated business system and a first class customer service. Whilst the content on the site has been built up over time and should be relevant and helpful, we are always looking to add to it, as well as improve its design and navigation. We therefore positively encourage our customers to communicate their thoughts all the time, whether they be critical or complimentary!

Trust us

As soon as you have completed your order on our website you should receive an email confirmation. At the same time you receive this email, its details are electronically transferred to our warehouse where a packing note is printed off along with its despatch label(s). Once your order has been picked, packed and loaded on to a trailer left by the courier the previous evening, you should receive another email from us to confirm that your order is on its way. Later on in the day the courier company returns to collect the full trailer and leave another empty trailer. It´s at this point that you will receive communication from the courier with instructions how to manage and track your delivery.

We work you sleep

The trailer with your packing materials on it is now on its way to the courier’s central hub where it is unloaded, along with hundreds of other trailers, to be redistributed on to new trailers before setting off through the night to arrive at various local hubs all over the country the following morning. On arrival at the courier’s depot local to you, the trailer is unloaded once more and redistributed on to the small van that turns up at your doorstep during the day.

Start packing early

Once your moving boxes have arrived, in order to make your life a little easier leading up to the big day, start packing straight away, even if it´s still a few weeks away. Get organised and pack a room up each day. Not only might it help to reduce the stress but you may even enjoy it! Try and throw away anything you no longer need. Take the opportunity to get rid of some old clothes. Come on, are you really going to get in to those purple hot pants, let alone ever wear them out again?!?! Last but not least don’t forget to pack a box separately with anything you might need immediately upon your arrival at your new home. Loo roll. Kettle. Mugs. Teabags. Milk. Sugar. Spoon. Good luck!
