How to Get the Best Quote for Your Rotherham House Move

Getting the best quote for a house move is more than just ringing a few local companies and agreeing with the cheapest price. There are also simple steps you can take to get a better price.

Decluttering before you get a quote can help. That way, you’ll have a better idea of the volume of contents you need to move. You’ll also have less to move which should keep costs down as less movers and vehicles may be required.

It can be handy to know that many removal companies can supply packaging materials for a fraction of the cost that you’d pay on the high street.

A removal company shouldn’t charge to give a quote, so if they ask for an upfront fee before providing a quote, you should rule them out. A quote shouldn’t come with any form of obligation.

Get the best value for money

Not all removal companies are created equal. You want to make sure the company can provide you with the exact service you require for the best price. So quote comparisons should be made on a like-for-like basis.

It could be helpful to have a checklist to work from. That way, you’ll have a full breakdown of knowing what’s covered and what’s not. You may want to include things like packaging materials, a full packing and unpacking service and maybe even storage for items that you want to keep but don’t have room for in your new home.

It could be worth asking directly what’s not covered in the quote to ensure that the final quote doesn’t come with hidden costs.

Are they reliable, trustworthy, flexible?

These are all things you can check by looking at their customer reviews. There are plenty of impartial review sites you can browse, including Google.
