Types of Removal Services in Bolton

Preparation for Moving in Bolton

Declutter your home by getting rid of items you no longer need or want. Consider selling higher-value items on eBay or donating them to charity. After decluttering, you'll have fewer boxes to pack, and it'll feel more like a fresh start in your new home. We recommend decluttering even if you're moving within the same area, such as from one side of Bolton to the other, a Farnworth removal, or a removal in Horwich.


Ask supermarkets for leftover cardboard boxes or visit friends and family for spare boxes. 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.

Pack your most used items last, starting with items you rarely use, such as those stored in your loft or cupboard. As moving day draws nearer, gradually work your way towards packing more regularly used items. Use protective packaging like bubble wrap or newspaper for fragile items and ensure they are tightly packed in their boxes.


Label every box clearly, including which room it belongs in, to help the removal company and make unpacking easier. Stock up on parcel tape and pens, and share them with family members to pack their own bedrooms.


Try to schedule a weekday move to avoid traffic, fewer people around, and more removal companies available. If you have children, moving on a weekday means they'll be at school, so they'll be safely out of the way.


Recruit helpers to ease the load on moving day, which will lower stress levels and give you more time to enjoy your new life in Bolton. Keep in contact with your chosen removal company and inform them of any changes that may affect your move.


Arrange cleaning in the old house, whether you're doing it yourself or hiring a professional cleaning company, to leave the property empty, clean, and tidy for the new owners. Consider leaving cleaning products for the new owners to use.


Pack a moving day bag with essentials, such as a toothbrush, toilet roll, a change of clothes, and a toolkit, to save you having to unpack boxes prematurely or waste time searching for necessary items on moving day.
