Selecting a removals company can sometimes be a stressful bordering nightmarish experience.

Here you'll find some top tips for how to go about this without reducing yourself to a nervous wreck in the process!

1. Allocate plenty of time to your selection.

You're going to be entrusting a company and their employees with the care of perhaps most of your entire household or business possessions. So, don't try to squeeze your selection into a single 10-minute session on the Internet one night with a glass of wine in your hand!

Take your time, identify what is important in terms of your selection criteria and then look closely at a range of options.

2. Compare all aspects of the quotation and not just the bottom line price

Knowing that you found the lowest-cost provider in the marketplace, will be absolutely no consolation to you at all in circumstances where your removal has been a disaster of one sort or another.

Any professional furniture mover will outline their credentials and qualifications for the job. Compare these closely between quotations to begin with and put off looking at the price until later on.

3. Use specialists

Be extremely cautious about entrusting your removal to "someone who has a van and a friend who will help".

Likewise, remember that commercial removals can be fundamentally different to domestic ones. So, if you are moving your office or other business premises, look for someone with a proven track record in that domain.

4. Look carefully at their insurance provisions

Space doesn't really permit a full discussion of this here but simply make sure that you understand what each of your quotations is telling you about the insurance cover that will be included in your price - or not.

5. See if they are offering guarantees

You can tell a lot about a company's confidence about their ability to provide first-class furniture mover services by the nature of the language they use as part of their quotation.

If you see lots of guarantees about things such as their care and attention and what they would do in the event something gets damaged, fine.

On the other hand, if you see lots of exclusions, caveats and "wriggle-out" type language, well, it might give cause for caution.

6. Research the company online.

Useful as their own on-site testimonials might be, remember that they may well have been sanitised.

Of course, many companies would not dream of doing so with their customer feedback but you won't know one way or another at the outset.

So, see if you can find any other Internet gossip on the company concerned and whether or not there are any negative comments around from disgruntled customers.
