At Harradines, every quotation is tailored to the individual requirements of the client. The fee is based on the quantity of belongings that need to be moved, the size and type of vehicles, staff required, where you are moving to, and any special requirements such as packing services or storage. Everything is included in the quotation, there are no hidden extras. Because we do a full survey of your requirements, the figures we give you are accurate quotations, not estimates.

Full payment will be due in full 14-days prior to removals commencement. Payment options available are debit or credit card or BACS transfer.

To make sure of your booking, it’s always best to sign the acceptance form and send it back to us as soon as possible even if you don’t have a firm date for moving. We generally plan moves 2-3 weeks ahead but try to be as flexible as possible to accommodate our clients. Just remember to keep us in the loop! Once you notify us that we are your preferred mover, we can work around our workbook with our corporate contracts to hold your provisional date as long as possible.

Once you have a date you are aiming for, but it is not yet absolutely confirmed, we can provisionally book your move. Whilst provisional bookings are non-committal by both parties, if we know when a client is ‘hoping’ to move we can capitalise on this & maximise our likelihood of availability
 
We achieve this as by manipulating our contract, commercial & storage works as we can often dictate dates on these types of moves – ie. Moves that are not subject to a chain.

Harradines insures every move for £50,000. This amount can, and regularly is, increased, for a small charge. It covers any loss or negligence on our part. We have an excellent claims history and, should any problem arise, we aim to deal with it as quickly, efficiently and fairly as possible.

At Harradines we offer full, part packing and client pack services. During your survey we find out exactly what packing materials your move requires and include them in the price we quote you. We use only high quality packing materials suitable for each item and all items are covered by our extensive insurance policy. We collect the empty boxes after the move (whenever you’re ready) and recycle them responsibly.

We move pianos as an individual service, or inclusively with all home removals.
Our staff are fully trained in safely relocating pianos and we have specialist covers for all types of pianos.

We will book a survey at any time to suit you. We can see clients in the evenings, before they go to work or on Saturdays.
