How to Select a Moving Company

This is a difficult decision.

Price is one factor. However it’s not the main one. Trusting a moving company with your personal effects should be a decision made with care.

Rest assured the industry is fraught with danger.

Here’s some questions to ask yourself when you are selecting a moving company:

• How long has the removalist been in business?
• Do they have offices at origin and destination?
• Are they a member of a local or international moving organisation?
• Do they provide references?
• How competent is their salesperson?
• Are their trucks clean and well maintained?
• Have you visited their premises?
• Is their storage containerised?
• Do they tranship your effects whilst in transit?
• Who is the underwriter of their insurance policy?
• Do they own their own trucks, or do they subcontract?
• If shipping overseas which shipping company do they use?
