Packing service for moving home
A professional full or part packing service with Britannia Bradshaw costs far less than you'd expect. It also saves you time and effort when you're getting ready for moving day.
Busy professionals, young families and older people often use our service, but you don't need to fall into any category to decide having a professional pack your belongings for removal to your new home is right for you. Time is often in short supply, and it takes time to pack for your house move.
What makes a professional packing service different from packing yourself?
Time! When people gather their belongings together to pack and move home, more often than not they're also sorting as they pack. Suddenly that simple cabinet of things you need to put into a few boxes takes several hours due to trips down memory lane or deciding what will come and what will be donated, given away or disposed of. When our men come to do your packing they have one job - to ensure your belongings are packed safely and securely - and swiftly.
Our removal men are continually trained to a high level in packing most standard goods. They are also able to safely pack unusual, bulky, fragile and valuable items. Britannia Bradshaw packs and transports your special belongings using quality, purpose-made materials and equipment. You can be sure that we will look after everything, from your glass and chinaware to a grandfather clock or a grand piano.
Having moved thousands of homes since 1884, we have built up the necessary experience to be able to cope with removals of all shapes, types, and sizes. Your requirements may differ from other customers and packing is a key area where special needs may apply. By preparing well, listening to our customers, and having the right materials on hand, Britannia is able to provide a full and secure packing service.
For many people, packing is one of the most stressful and dreaded parts of a move. We're able to take care of this job, leaving you to attend to other important tasks.
Full pack service
We will pack all your personal effects and, having checked previously that everything in the cupboards needs transferring to your new home with you, we will do all the packing so you can relax. Often it is necessary to pack prior to the removal day, which we will arrange with you in advance.
Unpacking - It is very important that you agree in writing any unpacking services that you would like us to perform. Please note that unpacking is onto a flat surface.
Partial pack service
If you choose this option, we will pack your fragile and breakable items such as china, glassware, pictures, mirrors, ornaments, and lamps. Non-breakable items, such as linen, clothing, books, tools, pans, plastic kitchen storage containers, etc are packed by you. We're flexible - just how much we pack is up to you.
Owner packed
We can provide you with the boxes, supplies, and information you need to pack everything for your move. On moving day, we will pack any hanging clothing for you in our wardrobe boxes, and unpack the hanging clothes in your new home.
