Which Types of Removal Services Can You Find on Shiply?


A company offering a full moving service will assist you with all of the move, including helping you to pack, doing all of the heavy lifting at both ends, & unpacking for you in your new home. This type of service is typically at a higher cost due to the amount of work involved. A full service would suit a busy household with minimal time for packing & those that would rather avoid the stress of the move & leave the bulk of the work to the professionals.


A part-service offers some of the same features as a full service, but not all. Typically a part-service will include loading & unloading at both ends, but will not include helping with any packing. This type of service would be best for those that are around on the day to be involved in the move, but perhaps are in need of an extra pair of hands. A part-service would also suit those who may need help with particular jobs at either side of the process, for example help with assembling furniture.


Cambridgeshire, UK

A self-service or self-packing move is the most basic & cost-effective of the removal types. Self-service can be either just the hiring of a van for you to drive yourself, or it can be hiring a driver with a vehicle to get your possessions from the old house to the new one. If you've already got lots of hands ready to help on moving day & do not need a team to help with packing & assembling, a self-service move is probably all you'll need for your Cambridgeshire removals.

How to Prepare for Your House Move


Preparing for your house move removals Cambridgeshire can be a stressful & overwhelming experience. However, with a little planning & organisation, you can make sure that your move goes smoothly & hassle-free. Here are some tips to help you prepare for your house move:


Let people know about your move - As well as loved ones, make sure you remember to notify companies about your move, including energy providers, your bank, & Royal Mail. Subscriptions & memberships will need to be moved over to the new address, as well as your TV licence & phone bill, so make a list of everyone you need to inform & work your way down one by one.


Declutter - Try & get rid of things you don't want to keep, especially if your new home has less storage space than your current home. For higher value items, try selling on eBay for some extra money, & consider donating items to charity or giving away to friends & family.


Cambridgeshire removals

Ask supermarkets for leftover cardboard boxes - Boxes don't have to cost a fortune. Ask friends & family for spare boxes or visit your local supermarket to see if they have any in the stock room for you to have. If you've paid for a full moving service, cardboard boxes may be provided but it's best to double-check what your service includes so you've got everything you need on the day.


Pack your most used items last - If you're struggling to get started with the packing, a great place to start is to pack the items you use the least, first. If you've got a loft or cupboard full of items you hardly use (but don't want to throw away), you can pack these first without impacting your day to day life.


Cambridgeshire removals

Label everything - Make sure boxes are clearly labelled. You don't have to list everything in each box, but even writing which room it's for (eg. kitchen, bedroom 1) will help the removal company know which room to take the box to, & will help you when unpacking at the new home.


Stock up on parcel tape & pens & share them out to each family member so they can pack their own bedrooms. Try to schedule a weekday move - If you can, a weekday move is more beneficial for several reasons: There'll be less traffic on the roads, fewer people around, & there should be more removal companies to choose from by avoiding a weekend date.


Removals in Cambridgeshire

Recruit helpers - If you can & if you think you might need to, ask for help from those close to you to ease the load on moving day. An extra person helping will get the work done faster, which will lower stress levels & give you more time for enjoying your new home.


Keep in contact with your chosen removal company - If there are any changes that may affect how your chosen removal company can help you on the day, make sure you let them know so they are aware in advance.


Arrange cleaning in the old house - Whether you're cleaning it yourself or hiring a professional cleaning company, make sure you leave the old house empty, clean & tidy for the next owners to move in.


Pack a moving day bag - A great idea is for everyone to have their own moving bag packed with essentials for the first few days in your new home. This will save you having to unpack boxes prematurely, or wasting time desperately looking for a phone charger in a sea of boxes.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Yes, items can be taken upstairs if needed, and can also be assembled. Transport providers on Shiply are happy to provide these services, but you should ensure that you are mentioning these requirements in your listings as it may mean a second person is required for the move.

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. If you have already accepted a quote and need to change the address either within Cambridgeshire or outside the area, please let your transport provider know and contact us at .

Will The Movers Help With Unpacking?

Transport providers on Shiply are able to help with your house move on both ends (packing and unpacking), but you should make sure they are informed of this requirement as they may need to plan for this.

How Many Movers Will Show Up?

This depends on the transport provider. If you require more than one mover, make sure to highlight this in your listing as it may change the quotes you receive.
