- Do check the contract if you use a removal firm. Be clear on exactly what you want the firm to do and what happens if anything gets damaged during the move.
- Do use a company that belongs to the British Association of Removers (BAR).
- Don’t notify anyone of the change of address before the contracts are exchanged – if the move falls through you’ll have to notify everyone again.
- Don’t leave things until the last minute. Taking down items such as wall lights, shelves, mirrors and pictures will be more time-consuming than you expect.
- Don’t pack clothes and things you don’t need. Some removal firms have an OXBOX scheme – you put all your unwanted goods in boxes, label them and the removal company delivers them to the nearest Oxfam.
- Do pack a box of essentials. This should include the kettle, tea bags, coffee, mile, a screwdriver, loo roll and lightbulbs. Keep this box with you, along with important documents, telephone numbers you may need, cash and valuables and the keys to your new home.
