On moving day

It is important for the professional house movers to have an available parking spot close to your property - the parking slot needs to be secured by you. If the pros need to park in a Pay & Display parking space, the cost will be added to your final price. The loading process will begin immediately, assuming that you’ve packed and labelled correctly all your belongings.

The house movers will be happy to dismantle any large pieces of furniture, free of charge, and wrap them in blankets before placing them securely into the van. Note that boxes should not be heavier than 20kg. If you need assistance from packers (incl. the provision of quality boxes), just specify this during the booking process.

Transportation

The Fantastic pros will deliver your belongings to your new address by taking the optimal route possible. They use GPS systems to reach maximum efficiency when driving.

However, we can’t be held responsible for damaged items due to incorrect packing done by you. Hence, we advise you to take advantage of our expertise and combine your home removals service with our additional packing solutions. With the packing service from Fantastic Removals, your belongings are fully insured during the transportation. Also, note that our removals firm is unable to transport your pets or any hazardous goods.
