Moving house is one of the biggest events we undertake in our lives. Moving house can be exciting, stressful, nerve-wracking and arduous all at the same time. There is so much to consider at every step of the process, but one of the most important issues to address is how to move your worldly possessions to your new property.
You could opt to do it all by yourself, or perhaps get friends and family to help out. Alternatively, you could hire a removal company to do the hard work for you. It can be a tricky decision, so with that in mind, here are our five signs that you will need to hire a house moving service:
Too much to do and not enough time
With so much to do, the last thing you need is to be spending your moving day packing and unloading vans. Getting everything into a confined space takes a lot of time and effort. So why give yourself those headaches when there are professionals out there to help?
It also frees up your time to deal with all the other completion day activities, like collecting keys, sorting out utilities and eventually enjoying your new home.
Too many boxes
If you’re got a huge collection of possessions, it can be extremely hard to get them all into a van. Professional removal van companies are highly skilled at this task.
Not only will a removal company pack your possessions efficiently, but they will also have appropriate packing equipment to help ensure nothing is damaged during the house move. This can be especially useful if you own a number of fragile and/or precious possessions.
Young children live on the property
Moving house gets even more complicated if you have young children to look after. Trying to load a car or van when you are also having to look after your children can be especially stressful. It can also be dangerous if they get close to heavy boxes and equipment. By hiring a removal company, you can ensure that children are not only given the attention they deserve but also kept out of harm’s way.
There may be trouble ahead
However well-prepared you are, problems can always arise on moving day. This might be a minor issue such as finding somewhere to park a van at the new property or bad weather making the loading process more challenging.
Alternatively, it can be a more serious issue like a delay to the key collection. A removal company will have seen it all before. They are trained professionals who know exactly how to deal with problems during the move.
You’ve got health issues
This can be your physical or mental health. If you have any muscular problems, then the process of lifting heavy boxes is best avoided. You are not going to be much use on moving day if you are laid up in bed with an injury.
You also need to consider the mental stress that comes with moving house. Some of these stresses are unavoidable, but moving your possessions is something that can be literally taken out of your hands. Not having the stress of packing, can make a huge difference to your mental wellbeing during a house move.
