Britannia Goodwins Removals & Storage Stafford Moving Checklist
  • Book a survey so that you can decide on costs and set a moving date as quickly as possible (especially during peak times when slots fill up quickly)
  • Do you need or want everything from your garden, shed or garage? It's a great time for that long promised clear out.
  • Decide what service you require - packing china or glass, full service packing or pack yourself
  • Pick out the items that need special care and make sure that the people who are moving these items know - this is so fragile items or items that are especially valuable to you are given the proper attention
  • Throw away any unwanted items so that they don't accidently get taken with you (this happens more often than you think)
  • Clear out your loft so that no goods that you want to take get left behind
  • Make arrangements for children and pets on the day of your move so you don't get distracted on moving day by looking after them (and they don't get stressed) - distractions may mean things are left behind by accident
