Having a look at removal companies with great reputations is key – this is not a case of making do with the cheapest. You want to hire a professional who will do a really professional and smooth job.
I have tried to move our home before with just a hired van. We did all the packing up etc ourselves and honestly? never, ever again it was all a bit of nightmare, to be honest.
