Home Removals Lambeth – 6 Ways To Bring Down Moving Costs

Posted on 18/08/2014

House removals can be a confusing and stressful time, and one of the main concerns for those involved is typical the cost of moving home. However, there are several options available to those looking to move for a reduced price, as well as a few hints and tips which can be employed at the same time for those looking to lower general costs of their move. Listed below are six ways to bring down moving costs when moving to Lambeth, and ways in which you can reduce the overall stress of the move by saving money and reducing costs.

One of the quickest ways to eat up any available funds when planning your house removals is sourcing and acquiring packaging materials in order to safely pack away all of your possessions. Many people quickly assume that buying new plastic boxes or cardboard boxes from a hardware store as the only option, but there are other. Consider friends who have moved recently, and ask whether they still have the packaging materials which you may be able to borrow. Likewise, check in work to see if any colleagues are in a similar situation or whether the offices themselves have any materials you might be able to make use of. Sourcing these materials from elsewhere can dramatically reduce your costs.

Many people instantly assume the a removals firm is the only real option for those looking to conduct house removals. However, a cheaper option is hiring a man in a van for the day. For those who are conducting a smaller move and do not need the lorry and full packing team, a man in a van offers a flexible and cheaper option for those looking to reduce costs.

When moving house, people can get caught up in the stress and confusion of moving and forget to pay attention to the little details which can lead to an increased cost further down the line. Before you move, make sure to notify your utilities companies of the situation in order for them to take final meter readings and close the account. This will prevent the possibility of bill shock in a few months’ time and save you the cost of having to pay a massive unexpected bill.

The chances offered up by the internet mean that a larger number of companies are now available to those looking for Lambeth home removals. A quick search on the internet can serve up hundreds of London removals firms which are all vying for your business. Getting a large number of quotes means you can find the cheapest solution for you, and puts you in a stronger bargaining position when discussing price.

Meticulous planning of your Lambeth home removal will help to ensure that there are no unexpected costs which occur with little to no time to find alternative solutions. Taking the time before hand to plan every aspect of the move means that, come the day, you are already sure of where your money is going and confident in the final budget not being exceeded.

Perhaps the best way to reduce costs, and a way which will naturally reduce the stress and confusion of the day, is to involve your friends when moving to Lambeth. Asking friends to help often means that you will be done quicker and easier, you can use their services in place of those which you might normally pay for and you will have the additional benefit of being surrounded by your friends at a difficult time. Packing away your entire life and loading it onto the back of a lorry can be a difficult time, so having your friends nearby will undoubtedly make the whole day easier.

Cost isn't an issue for me when it comes to searching for movers, since most of the cheaper ones end up cutting corners somewhere else, but with London Removals, I paid a reasonable rate for quality work.

The movers at MovingCompanyLondon did an amazing job removing my antique piano and display unit from a first floor flat which involved going up a lot of steps. They took away all my worries and I'm extremely grateful.
