Our non-smoking team put in the hours so you don’t have to

Here at Removals Unlimited, we work hard to give each and every customer the best possible service during their move. One very important aspect of our service is that none of us smoke. Although we respect our smoking customers, it’s not a habit that any of us have ourselves.

Why is that important to you? There are a few reasons. Firstly, we won’t take cigarette breaks, which means the process of moving your possessions from your current home to your new abode is likely to be quicker.

You might think that a five-minute cigarette break here or there doesn’t matter, but actually it all adds up.

A study carried out in the US a couple of years ago found that the average smoker spends the equivalent of six days a year on cigarette breaks.

The Ladders shared the research from HaloCigs, which showed that in some industries workers were taking over an hour’s worth of cigarette breaks in a day. On moving day, when time can be tight to get our removals vehicles packed with your belongings so you can hand over your keys, even ten or 20 minutes can make all the difference.

This all ties back in with our aim to make your moving day as stress-free as possible. When you book us for your removals in Christchurch, or elsewhere in Dorset or the UK, you can rest assured that we’ll do everything we can to make everything run as smoothly as possible.

The second reason why it’s important to you that our team of professional movers and packers are non-smokers is that you can be sure that none of your possessions will smell of tobacco or cigarette smoke. This is especially important if you are using our full packing service, where we are boxing up and carefully packing your belongings, as well as transporting the boxes themselves on the day of your move.

All of our team members are healthy and love sports. Although that’s not directly related to being non-smokers, it’s important to us to stay in good physical shape so that we can move and manage your furniture and heavy items carefully and with precision.

We know that we have a physically demanding job, which is why we look after ourselves to allow us to provide a high level of customer satisfaction on every house or flat move.

According to an article for Wired last year, the UK government is aiming to eradicate smoking tobacco in the country by 2030. They’re not directly banning cigarettes, but they have brought in tougher controls on advertising, as well as significantly increasing the taxes paid on packets of cigarettes.

Given that none of us smoke, you could say that we’re ahead of the curve as a business on that front!

Ultimately, we believe that being non-smokers allows us to deliver a better standard of removal service to you, our customers. We won’t take extra breaks for a quick cigarette and the smell of smoke and tobacco won’t transfer to your belongings as we pack and move them either. It also keeps us as a team healthier, so we believe it’s a win-win all round!
