If you have moved house before and or planning to move,you might find the answer to these questions interesting .
Movers often require you to give as much information as possible so they can draft up a price.
This information is the most important thing because as a mover I have received some very misleading information from customers only to turn up on the moving day to find a double garage and a shed full of collected items from the past decade that wasn't declared to the mover.The mover can either request this information in the form of a visit by a estimator or in the form of a completed inventory list. For most people the last option is the most convenient.
The collected information is then used to calculate your estimate. The volume of items will decide the size of the truck or van that will be used on the job. some of the cost to take in to consideration are;
- the distance of move from pick up point to delivery
- the amount of time the job will take (this important if the job is over a few days)
- Fuel cost etc.
