Best thing too, just need strong arms and lots of helpers Oh an some big vans!!!! When we moved up to Scotland we only had ourselves so had to have a company and of course, moving from Leicestershire to Scotland we also had a company,now they were fantastic and professional and not too expensive but the one I am talking about I was amazed nothing got broken, plant pots were dumpted on top of soft furnishings, Steves bike on top of everything!!! the van was crammed AND the owner double booked so they had to work without a break, only one chap was allowed a glass of water!!!!! amazing..................good luck...Oh, I did what everyone tells you on one move, made up a box for the car with kettle, pack up, posh bickies, first aid kit, scissors tea, coffee milk etc and guess what, that went off packed first into the removal van by mistake and it was of course te very last thing out...how I was longing for a cuppa!!!!!!
