Frequently asked questions
We are moving high value items every day, all over the globe. All of our staff are trained in moving clocks, antiques, pianos, barometers and it is the norm for us. When the estimator visits he will note any items such as these that require special attention.
Every item of furniture is wrapped in blankets when loaded into the lorry, our vehicles are specifically designed to carry out removals (fully ramped and equipped with lifting aids) and all of our staff attend BAR run courses in safely moving furniture.
We never use agency staff, all of our staff are full-time workers for TFM and work together on a daily basis.We do use trusted partners for our work that goes abroad.
It will be dependent on the volume of goods you need to be moved, the distance we need to travel and the services you require. A move that can fit in a Luton van and is moving locally will cost less than a move that needs a 44-tonne road train and is moving to Scotland. Also a move packed into cartons by the customer will cost less than a removal if we need to pack all of the cartons. We can also dismantle furniture if required and this will affect costs. We send an estimator to look at every job and will then give a written quotation based on the service required and the information given by the customer.
In the terms and conditions that we enclose with our estimate there is a section “goods not to be submitted for removal or storage”. Simply, the answer is we cannot move or store any goods that are potentially dangerous, such as gas bottles, aerosols, paints, fuels and lithium batteries; or high-value items like jewellery or watches; and no animals, fish or perishable items.
We can either carry out all of your dismantling or just dismantle specified items. Any items that we dismantle we will of course re-build for you in your new home. Our estimator will discuss this with you and the cost of this service will be detailed in your estimate.
All of our vehicles carry specialist metal hanging garment carriers, with waterproof covers to protect your clothes during transit.
Yes, we offer full insurance as standard, up to £100,000 for a standard removals service.
If it is a local removal we will usually load in the morning and unload in the afternoon. If we are doing the packing of cartons this will usually be done the day before. Any removal out of the area will have a unique timetable dependent on travelling time and time to load and unload. The timetable will be clearly indicated on the estimate.
