Relocations Cambridgeshire: How to Discover Affordable Removal Firms with Shiply


Preface


Relocating to a new residence can be a challenging and costly undertaking, but with Shiply, it's simple to discover budget-friendly removal businesses in Cambridgeshire that provide the degree of service you require. Whether you're seeking a comprehensive relocation with all the extras or just a little additional van capacity, Shiply can assist you in saving up to 75% on your move.


Why Utilize Shiply for Your Cambridgeshire Relocations?


Shiply has thousands of registered removal firms prepared to offer estimates for your house relocation. This implies you have more choices when it comes to the kind of company, service, and price you pay. Our online form is user-friendly and only requires a few details about your move, such as whether you reside in a house or apartment, the number of rooms, and the addresses of your old and new homes.


Using Shiply is also more environmentally friendly, as our registered moving companies plan their jobs around existing work in your area or use extra space in vehicles that would otherwise be empty or partially full. This means your house move will have a smaller negative impact on the environment.


Cambridgeshire, UK is a popular location for people to relocate to and from, thanks to its scenic countryside, outstanding schools, and proximity to London. Whether you're moving within Cambridgeshire or to another part of the country, Shiply can help you find dependable and affordable removal companies to assist with your relocation.


Types of Removal Services Available on Shiply


Shiply offers a range of removal services to suit your needs and budget. A full moving service includes packing, heavy lifting, and unpacking in your new home, but comes at a higher cost due to the amount of work involved. This type of service is ideal for busy households with limited time for packing and those who want to avoid the stress of moving.


A part-service includes loading and unloading at both ends but doesn't include packing assistance. This is a good option if you're available on moving day and need some extra help, or if you require assistance with specific tasks like assembling furniture.


A self-service or self-packing move is the most basic and cost-effective option, involving either hiring a van to drive yourself or hiring a driver with a vehicle to transport your belongings. This is suitable if you have plenty of helpers on moving day and don't need assistance with packing or assembling.


Preparing for Your House Relocation


To ensure a smooth and stress-free moving day, there are several things you can do to prepare:


  • Inform important contacts, such as utility providers, financial institutions, and Royal Mail, of your relocation

  • Declutter and dispose of items you no longer need or want

  • Request leftover cardboard boxes from supermarkets to save money on packing materials

  • Pack your least-used items first and gradually work towards packing more frequently used items closer to moving day

  • Label boxes clearly with the room they belong in

  • Schedule a weekday move to avoid traffic, crowds, and limited availability of removal companies

  • Ask friends and family for help on moving day to ease the workload

  • Keep in contact with your chosen removal company about any changes that may affect their services

  • Arrange cleaning of your old house, either by yourself or through a professional cleaning company

  • Pack a moving day bag with essentials for the first few days in your new home

Conclusion


By using Shiply for your Cambridgeshire relocations, you can find affordable and reliable moving companies that offer the level of service you require. With thousands of registered companies, a user-friendly online form, and the ability to save up to 75% on your move, Shiply makes it easy to find the right removal company for your needs.

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?

If you have not yet accepted a quote then you are able to change the address of your listing. Note that editing details of your listing after publishing will result in active quotes being voided, so you will have to wait for new quotes to come in.

Will The Movers Help With Unpacking?
