Getting ready for moving day.

Our crews will look forward to meeting and working with you. They will be prepared for your removal and are very well trained, experienced and friendly. Below is a quick summary of the feedback given to us by the crew to help your moving day go smoothly.

  • Please dismantle and re-assemble furniture items wherever possible unless you have opted for this service from AMC Removals.
  •  Please also disconnect electrical appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers and televisions unless you have opted for this service from AMC Removals.
  • Ensure all boxes are sealed shut and can be stacked safely by the crew.
  • A parking space of fifteen metres within twenty metres of your doorway should be available. Any problems arranging this, please let us know at least one week before your removal date. If there are any restrictions such as single or double yellow lines, please organise a parking dispensation unless you have paid for this optional service from AMC Removals.
  • Please pack all televisions into a box if you have not hired a crate from AMC Removals.
  • To avoid injury to the crew or potential damage to furniture with drawers, please ensure the contents of the drawers are packed into a box and ensure all drawers are empty.
  • Any paintings and mirrors should either be boxed or wrapped in bubble wrap for moving. AMC Removals offer an optional service for wrapping all pictures and mirrors for a small additional charge if required.
  • Our crews are not permitted to move any flammable items such as, but not limited to, gas bottles, petrol, parrafin, diesel and oil. Pots of paint that have been opened cannot be moved by our crews.
  • Table lamps should be wrapped and packed into a box. Standard lamps should have their shades removed, wrapped  and packed into a box.
  • As a general rule, if it can fit into a box then it is best to put that item into a box.
  • Please remove any curtain poles and television brackets unless you have opted for this service from AMC Removals.
  • Please empty fridge and freezers of their contents.
  • On completion of loading the lorry at your collection address, have a good last look around to ensure everything has been taken.
  • There is no need to move boxes downstairs or into one room at the collection address. Our crews are very helpful and will remove boxes from each room and at the delivery address, if the box is marked, will place that box in its allocated room.
  • Finally and just as important, please place your house keys, car keys and important documents into a car before the arrival of the moving team to avoid them being placed in the lorry by the crew.

All the above will help ensure a smooth stress free moving day!
