Moving home is often an exciting time full of promise but it can also prove to be fairly stressful with lots to plan and organise. The whole moving home process can take anywhere from eight weeks to eight months with lots to sort out inbetween, from instructing your conveyancing solicitors to arranging home surveys.
With so much to organise, the actual ‘moving element’ of the the process is often overlooked. Many people put off finding a removals firm to the last minute, or rely on friends and families. Others resort to substandard services as most reputable removals firms are booked up weeks, even months in advance, particularly over the busy summer months.
