Why it’s worth getting expert help with your move

With the cost of living going up sharply in the UK in 2022, we can understand why you might be looking to save money when you are moving home. After all, moving is expensive at the best of times, let alone when the cost of even the most basic items in the shops has increased. Government figures showed that in March this year, inflation hit 7%, a substantial increase since the beginning of 2021.

However, while paying for an experienced removals firm in the South West might seem like an expense you could avoid by moving home yourself, for many people this will turn out to be a false economy.

Speaking to The Press and Journal, TV property expert Phil Spencer recommended that anyone moving home should think twice before deciding to do all the heavy lifting themselves. “In my book, it’s worth spending a reasonable amount of money on removal services as when it goes wrong, it goes really wrong. It’s extremely hard packing and unpacking and shifting all the boxes,” he stated.

We certainly know how physically demanding moving home can be. Our team of professional movers and packers are highly efficient and have helped hundreds of people move home over the years.

With our packing skills, access to all the necessary packing materials, not to mention specialist equipment that makes it easier to move heavy items of furniture and protect both them and your property at the same time, we are able to move you out of your old home and into your new one quickly and efficiently.

As Phil Spencer also noted, another challenge when you’re moving home is disassembling and reassembling all of your furniture. Our experienced team also offer a furniture dismantling and reassembly service, which means you won’t need to spend the days after you move in hunting for your toolkit and then searching for the necessary screws and fixtures to put your bed, sofa or other belongings back together.

In addition to saving you the hassle and stress of having to reassemble all of your furniture yourself, just think of the time you will save! If you make use of our professional team of movers in Bournemouth, Poole, Westbourne, Christchurch and Southbourne to help with your home move, you’ll be able to unpack and settle into your new abode more quickly.

Another reason why it’s worth paying for an experienced removals firm like Removals Unlimited to assist with your move is that our quote will include all the necessary packing materials to ensure your belongings are transported safely from one home to the other.

When you decide to take on this part of the process yourself, not only do you need to allow time to pack up all of your possessions, but you also need to ensure you have enough boxes, bubble wrap and packing tape on hand for your move.

Purchasing these materials can add up, so it is certainly worth bearing this in mind when you are working out whether you want to go down the DIY removals route. It is important to know how much a professional removals service could cost you, as it may not be as much as you imagine.

We offer a free, no-obligation quote for our services after conducting a full house survey, so contact us today to learn more about our services and to find out how much (or how little!) it will cost you to have the Removals Unlimited team on hand for your moving day.
