Welcome
to Parkers Removals Top Tips
and Advice Section
We would like you to read the following advice.
These tips will help make the move easier for us all. Please do contact
us
whenever you feel necessary as our expert advice is free and happily
given.
Let us know of any special requirements that you may have in advance.
We will always try to help and may even be able to offer ideas to
overcome potential problems.
We cannot move Gas Appliances unless they have been disconnected by a
CORGI Registered Plumber. You will need to arrange this well before the
day of your big move.
Put washing machine hoses in the drum to ensure that hoses and washers
are not damaged or lost.
Make sure everything is boxed upon our arrival. If you are concerned
about this, we are more then happy to quote for packing boxes as well
as removals. This however must be agreed in advance.
Mark the boxes with their contents and which room they need to be taken
in your new home I.e. Kitchen, Dining Room, Lounge, Conservatory,
Study, and Bedroom 1,2,3,4 etc. We generally expect Bedroom 1 to the be
the closest to the Stairs.
Let us know of any Glass Table Tops to be moved. We have a process that
ensures that they are not damaged
Our staff are equipped with basic tools to make the move easier,
however, we can only dismantle furniture and
Equipment if agreed in advance.
Label boxes with as much as possible i.e. Fragile Goods.
Our staff will always read the labels before moving the boxes.
Pack Fragile Goods as well as possible. Also, don’t forget to
label them as Fragile. Our staff can then make sure that they receive
extra care during the move.
Printers & Copiers – Remove ink cartridges and place
them in
leak proof bags. We have known for ink from such items to spill on to
cloth of furniture.
Please inform of Plant Pots that are normally kept outside as they can
take up a lot of floor space and leave the floor of the van dirty. We
will take extra precautions to ensure that they are not damaged during
transit.
Please advise of any heavy items such as American Style Fridges and
Piano’s. We can then arrange for our vehicles with hydraulic
tail
lifts to be used on the job.
Paint pots, stains and other liquids are better off being packed in
Dustbin type containers to avoid spillage onto your other possessions,
and our Vans!
Bedding and Quilts should be packed in heavy duty dustbin bags. They
can then be efficiently packed inside our removal vehicles.
Drawers need to be emptied if they are packed with heavy items
otherwise the bottoms may break upon moving.
Wardrobes are not all designed to be moved. Flat pack wardrobes can be
particularly flimsy when lifted or tilted. We have a process of
securing straps to such items to add strength during the removal
process.
We
pride ourselves on our
service, responsibility,
and honesty and look forward to working with you and making your move a
success.
