ADVICE & TIPS from the team

 

PACKING FOR YOUR REMOVAL TO FRANCE

  • SORT Take a ruthless view on items you may not use or want

  • PACKING CARTONS We advise you to use strong packing cartons, avoid large cartons and don't overload them, consider the weight and stability/stackability of each. (See our links page for carton suppliers or go to the supermarket and select the best there for free!)

  • FRAGILITY You must mark the boxes "FRAGILE", "VERY FRAGILE" or "THIS WAY UP"

  • CLOTHING You could consider the hanging cartons available saving lots of ironing the other side!

  • APPLIANCES Empty and clean thoroughly.  Washing machines: use the stability bars for the drum supplied when you bought the machine.

  • OFFICE EQUIPMENT For example; fax machines, PC's, printers, scanners etc - these must all be boxed and not loose.  LCD screens must be well padded to avoid any scratching by movement of the vehicle.

  • CHINA AND GLASS Line the carton with newspaper and wrap individually in tissue or newspaper. Make sure they are well padded.

  • PLATES, RECORDS AND CDS Stand on side, don't pack flat.

  • SELF ASSEMBLY FURNITURE is not designed to be moved whole. Disassemble the furniture removing and packing all parts.

  • FURNITURE should have all cushions and loose covers removed and packed separately.

  • BEDS disassemble beds, cover & seal mattresses with plastic sheeting.  Pack bed clothing separately.

  • MOTORISED EQUIPMENT ensure fuel tanks are close to empty.  Please advise your driver if you suspect any oil leaks.

  • PLANTS or ANIMALS we occasionally carry plants, drivers discretion, we do not carry animals.

  • FLAMMABLE ITEMS such as petrol, paraffin, gas bottles etc cannot be carried by us.

COLLECTION AND DELIVERY

  • YOUR LOAD Ensure that you have checked that all of your items will fit into the transport, review the Capacity Calculator that we send to you. 
  • EASY ACCESS needed for large vehicle and advise of any parking restrictions. If collection/delivery is in a narrow, restricted or busy street please contact the local Police/Mairie to advise them of the timings. You must advise us in advance if there are stairs or any difficulty with access, it helps us to plan better.
  • COLLECTION TIME/DATE ensure you have liaised with us and you or a representative is on site at the time of collection and delivery to assist with loading/unloading.
