FAQ About Gillingham Removal Companies
How can I find the cheapest removal company in Gillingham?
How did you pick the best removal companies in Gillingham?
The companies listed above were chosen as they were the 10 nearest members of the British Association of Removers (BAR) to Gillingham city centre.
Why use a BAR Member for your move?
BAR removers are among the best UK removal companies. Here’s why according to the BAR website.
BAR membership isn’t for every removal company and isn’t just a pay-as-you-go scheme. To become a BAR Member a removal company has to prove that they can meet the high standards of our existing Members, otherwise the membership itself becomes devalued and the badge would no longer represent the benchmark for quality that it currently does.
There is set criteria to join and a stringent Code of Practice to adhere to and, understandably not all movers can meet those standards. All our Members are audited annually and must meet our Membership criteria and adhere to our Code or else face having their membership terminated. In addition the performance of BAR Members is uniquely monitored by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute (CTSI) to ensure the Member is operating as they should be, in the interests of their customers.
We also list if members can handle commercial and overseas moves on top of domestic ones.
Can any of the companies listed above help me to move internationally?
Yes, some of the Gillingham removals companies listed above can help with your international move. Look for ones that say they handle overseas moves.
However, international moves can be quite complex so your best bet is to click here to get multiple international moving quotes online.
How much are removal companies in Gillingham?
The price for house removals can vary widely in Gillingham depending on what type of service you need. Anyvan claims they offer home removal services from as little as £59.
HouseholdQuotes.co.uk on the other hand offers a more detailed breakdown. They claim the typical prices for a local move in Gillingham for 1 bed flat at £450 to £650 and £500 to £850 for a long distance move.
This goes up to £1,350 to £2,000 to move a 5 bed house locally and up to £1,500 to £3,000 for a long distance move.
International moves will be likely cost even more.
When do you pay removal companies in Gillingham?
In the UK it is standard practice to pay your removal company upfront. Now you may be worried about the financial risk.
The good news is that the Gillingham moving companies listed above are all BAR members which means they are all part of their Advanced Payment Guarantee. This guarantee is as follows:
BAR members provide an Advanced Payment Guarantee to their customers. All BAR members are financially vetted and provide the safety net of an APG scheme.
BAR Member companies will provide you with details of the scheme to which they belong, and whether the cover provided is for moves within the UK only or on a Worldwide basis, and so it is important that you ensure your chosen mover provides the appropriate level of cover for the type of move that you are undertaking. The guarantee applies to private individuals moving home to, from or within the United Kingdom and so you can have total confidence in using a BAR Member company for your move.
How much notice do Gillingham removal companies need?
In general it’s a good idea to give more rather than less notice when picking a removal company in Gillingham. Some companies may have same day availability for local moves, but that is extremely rare.
2 weeks is the typical minimum notice period for local moves with long distance and international moves usually requiring 4-6 weeks notice.
The more time you give, the more options you’ll have. This both means you should be able to get a lower price and you’ll likely be able to pick a better moving company.
Are there any removal companies in Gillingham who pack for you?
There should be. Most (although not all) removal companies in Gillingham offer packing services and many also offer storage services too. You can easily visit their website to see if they offer packing services in addition to standard removal services.
