Why You Should Balance Cost and Quality When Booking a Removals Company
When organising a move, it’s tempting to focus only on price.
After all, moving can be expensive, and finding the cheapest quote might seem like the simplest way to save. But going with the lowest price isn’t always the wisest choice. In fact, it can end up costing you more in time, stress, and even money. Balancing cost with quality is the smartest way to make sure your move goes smoothly.
The Risks of Choosing the Cheapest Option
A very low quote can be a warning sign.
Some companies keep prices down by cutting corners — using fewer staff, relying on old or poorly maintained vehicles, or skipping insurance cover. In other cases, the base price looks attractive, but essential services like packing materials, waiting time, or even fuel costs are added later as “extras.” What looked like a bargain at first can quickly become more expensive than a mid-range, transparent quote.
Another common issue with bargain quotes is the way they’re structured. While the base price looks attractive, important services like packing materials, waiting time, parking fees, or even fuel are not included. These are then added later as “extras,” leaving you with a final bill far higher than expected. For example, a company might quote for transport only but charge separately for loading and unloading, which is essential to the job.
What initially looks like a cost-saving decision can quickly spiral into an expensive mistake. By the time hidden charges and potential damages are factored in, the “cheap” option often ends up costing more than a mid-range company offering transparent pricing and professional service.
A very low removal quote may seem appealing at first, but it often comes with hidden risks. Movers that advertise rock-bottom prices usually have to cut costs somewhere, and this can affect the safety, reliability, and overall success of your move.
Why Quality Matters
High-quality removals companies are built on professionalism and reliability.
They invest in well-trained staff, modern vehicles, and the right equipment to make sure your belongings are handled safely at every stage of the move. They also include proper insurance, giving you peace of mind that if the unexpected happens, you’re financially protected. While these companies may not always be the cheapest option, the security and reassurance they provide are often worth the extra investment.
Experienced movers bring more than just muscle. They know how to dismantle and reassemble office furniture, carefully wrap fragile items like glassware or electronics, and lift heavy objects without causing damage to property or injury to themselves. Their training allows them to work quickly and efficiently while maintaining high standards of care.
Quality also shows in how challenges are handled. Every move has variables — from awkward staircases and tight hallways to limited parking and last-minute changes. A reliable removals company has the experience and flexibility to adapt without cutting corners or passing unnecessary costs on to you.
Value vs. Price
It’s important to remember that the most expensive quote doesn’t automatically guarantee the best service.
Some removals companies charge a premium simply because they can, without necessarily offering anything extra in terms of skill, equipment, or customer care. On the other hand, the lowest price often comes with hidden risks. That’s why the real focus should always be on value for money rather than price alone.
A company that delivers good value will be upfront and transparent about what their quote includes. They won’t lure you in with a low base rate only to add unexpected costs later. Instead, they’ll clearly explain what’s covered — from packing materials and labour to insurance and travel time — so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Good to Know….
Book Early
Ideally, book your removal company 4-6 weeks before your move date to allow time for a pre-move survey and compare quotes.
Packing and Unpacking:
Packing and unpacking services add to the overall cost, with comprehensive packing typically adding £400-£500 for a 3-bedroom house and unpacking costing around £200.
Book Storage Here
Easily book storage with no minimum term or unnecessary contract, so we can assess the volume of what you would like to be moved and gather information needed in order to provide an accurate price. Alternatively, call us on 0800 0472607 to book a home visit.
However you book your storage requirements, we can help tailor our service to your needs.
Look Beyond the Price — Read Reviews and Ask for Recommendations
When comparing removal companies, don’t let the number on the quote be your only guide
A low price is meaningless if the service is poor, and a high price isn’t justified if it doesn’t come with added benefits. To get a true picture of what a company offers, you need to look at its reputation.
Start by reading online reviews on trusted platforms such as Google, Trustpilot, or removal-specific directories. Look for patterns in feedback rather than focusing only on one or two comments. Consistently positive reviews about punctuality, careful handling of belongings, and good communication are strong signs of reliability.
Beyond online feedback, personal recommendations are invaluable. Ask colleagues, friends, or family who have moved recently if they can suggest a company they trust. Word-of-mouth referrals often highlight companies that may not have the biggest marketing budget but deliver excellent service.
By combining reviews with personal recommendations, you’ll get a clearer sense of which companies balance cost with quality service.
This extra step in research helps you avoid unreliable movers and ensures you’re paying for professionalism rather than just a price tag.
Word-of-mouth referrals
Word-of-mouth referrals also often bring lesser-known companies to light. Some of the most reliable movers don’t spend heavily on advertising but instead build their business on reputation and repeat customers. A trusted recommendation can therefore connect you with quality movers that you may not have found through a standard online search.
Check What’s Included
A removals quote may look reasonable at first glance, but unless you know exactly what’s covered, you could be in for an unpleasant surprise on moving day.
Different companies package their services differently — some offer a fully comprehensive service, while others provide only the bare minimum.
Always ask for a detailed, itemised breakdown. Does the price include packing materials such as boxes, tape, and protective wrapping, or will those be added later? Is dismantling and reassembling furniture part of the service, or is it charged as an extra? Will the movers handle fragile items like IT equipment and artwork, and if so, are they insured while in transit?
Judge Professionalism
Price and services are important, but professionalism is often what separates a reliable removals company from a poor one.
A professional mover communicates clearly from the very first enquiry, providing timely responses, straightforward answers, and detailed written quotes. If a company is vague, slow to reply, or avoids giving details, that’s often a red flag for how they’ll handle the actual move.
Punctuality is another sign of professionalism. A company that arrives on time for surveys and keeps to agreed schedules shows respect for your time and demonstrates reliability. If they’re late or disorganised before you’ve even booked them, chances are the move itself could face similar issues.
Professionalism also shows in how movers explain their process. Do they take time to walk you through what will happen on moving day? Do they offer advice on packing, labelling, and preparing your property? Companies that are open about their methods tend to be more trustworthy and better organised.
FAQ’s!
Do I need a Survey?
A reputable removals company will offer a free pre-move survey. This will consist of sending a member of staff to your home to analyse your moving needs. Sometimes, this survey can also be done via video call if you prefer, for ease and convenience.
The pre-move survey should allow your removals company to establish how big the move will be, so they can plan and prepare what they’ll need to provide in terms of staffing and equipment. It’s also a chance for you to discuss if you need any additional services, such as storage or packing.
After the survey, you should ask for a full written quote for what has been discussed.
Do they Supply Packaging Materials?
Most removal companies should be able to provide you with packing material. Of course, you’re welcome to get your packing materials elsewhere, but getting them from your professional removal company should help to keep your belongings safe and protected while they’re being moved.
Many removal companies will be able to provide boxes, as well as packing paper or bubble wrap, and padded bags for fragile items, if required. Speak to your removal company about exactly what they can provide, how much it will cost and when they will be able to deliver the material to you so you can start packing.
Are there any items they can’t move?
If you have dangerous goods that need moving, you should check whether your insurance company is able to move them. Often, due to health and safety requirements, removal companies might not be able to move certain goods, and you will have to move them yourself. This could include flammables, corrosives and firearms.
If you have any items that you think might cause a problem, be sure to bring it up with your removal company so they can confirm. Or, check the terms and conditions that your removal company will provide you with, here items not to be included for carriage should be listed.
