The easiest way to save both time and money when you’re moving home is to plan ahead and review every expenditure by line before you have to pay out or book anything.

As soon as you start to consider moving home create a budget planner that details all the costs you should consider and factor into your overall move.

Planning ahead means you won’t have any unexpected costs hit you which can be stressful and cause you lots of problems. It also means you don’t have to pay the first quote you receive as you will have shopped around.

Conveyancing

Transferring property from one owner to another is known as conveyancing. Conveyancing can begin once the seller accepts an offer from a buyer on a property. When the property is transferred to the buyer and they receive their keys, the legal process is complete.

This means there are legal processes that have to be followed by a conveyancing solicitor meaning that being more expensive doesn’t mean you will get a better service so always ask for quotes from different businesses.

Don’t think you have to use your estate agent’s solicitor or mortgage broker. Ask family and friends if they can make any recommendations and then shop around asking for quotes.

Removal Services

Ask for recommendations from family and friends for removal services and ask them to give you a quote for your removal.

Using a removal company that has different size removal vehicles and a team of removers means you won’t be let down on the day by team absence or vehicle issues which can sometimes happen with single van businesses.

Good and professional removal companies will offer a variety of services to suit your needs and budget and this is part of your move that you should try to skimp on.

Removal Services:

Loading, transporting and unloading your belongings and boxes on your moving day

Packing your belongings the day before you move, loading, transporting and unloading your belongings and boxes on your move day

Either of the above services, plus taking apart furniture, loading it, transporting it and reassembling at your new property, including any furniture items that are strong enough to be taken apart and reassembled (bed, wardrobes, units etc)

A good professional removal company will also be able to supply you with strong, sturdy and stackable moving boxes and wardrobes.

Ask them what will happen if your move date changes at the last minute, are they insured and for how much, also ask them to quote for each level of service as the packing service will save you a huge amount of time and stress in the build-up to your move so is always worth considering.
