NismO_UK Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 Moving house soon, so I thought I'd get a quote from a removal company and it was £500!! I live in a smallish 3 bed house and am moving approx 2 miles, does this seem a lot or is this much normal?? (Always moved myself before, but now have all of Clare's stuff so need BIG lorry) Anyone know of any reliable & cheap removal companies? Quote

NismO_UK Posted August 23, 2004 Author Posted August 23, 2004 Yeah I would, but they don't make vans big enough, and we've gotta move on a weekday and most of my mates are contractors!! Quote

davido140 Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 Thats actually pretty cheap, paid £600 to go from one side of basingstoke to the other! (3 bed house) One of the removal chaps only had one arm, cant believe I didnt spot that when he came over to do the quote (honest I missed it!!!) I would have thought it would be a hinderance in that kind of work but apparently not, fook me could he lift some heavy crap with one arm!!! :shock: Quote

cybernet Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 £500 is a good price! I got quoted over a grand to move out of a 2 bed flat! Ended up paying about £700 cash. The best thing for me was that all the stuff was insured for accidental damage. You don't get that when two of your mates drop your widescreen TV... :eek: Steve :) Quote '93 UK TT Manual [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
