Everyone wants their house move to go smoothly, but if you haven’t done the preparation and research ahead of moving day, there’s a chance you’re headed for disaster.
You should avoid bringing any perishable food items that may spoil during the moving process such as meat or dairy.
You should also check with your removals company if there are any items that they will not move or may need extra help to move. Many removals companies will not move live plants or animals. You may need to make separate arrangements to move these.
Starting the packing process early can help make things go smoothly when it comes closer to moving day. If you are prepared and begin packing in advance there is also less likelihood of misplacing items or leaving things behind.
This will vary depending on your contents insurance provider and policy. It is best to check your individual policy to see if moving house is covered in your contents insurance.
