Wellers and Whitehead Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 So I have got a few quotes online, but is that what they go by or does somebody come out and measure up/furniture to move etc and give a final figure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Someone has to come out. No way would I take a quote online and be happy that was it. If you've booked an entire container for your own use you may well find you need far less and so are paying over the odds. Or need more room than you thought and so be short that way. Let a few companies come out and quote you and don't be afraid to haggle on price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redditchcouple Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hi , We have had 5 companies come out...in the process of narrowing them down now..think we have a choice between 3,lets see what we can arrange on price :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_shel Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 if you read the terms & conditions on the online thing it'll say somewhere they reserve the right to increase the price if your stuff is more than the quote. So you could get a shock if you don't get them to come out. I've had 3 out last week, just about to book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fashionably Late Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 We had 7 removal companies come around and quote for us. I am glad because they all said we needed the same amount of space (a sole use 20 foot container) and then we decided who we liked best and haggled over price.

Mizzmp Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I've got Pickfords coming out on 23rd June. Im going to get 3 different people out and then haggle on price as they are all bound to quote differently. Most have said that Pickfords came out the most expensive however they did price match their cheapest quote. They seem to have the best vote from what I have read on here. Good luck people! Lets hope our houses don't take too long to sell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pumpkin Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Pickford's came out as the cheapest quote for us. They were cheapest for us too. I didn't bother haggling, just got three out and went with cheapest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
