I have moved house so many times that I have lost count.  I do quite enjoy the thrill of the move – you know, new house, new area, new experiences etc – but I have to tell you, I loathe the actual moving!

When I lived in Botswana, moving house was a really odd experience.  Two nice chaps turned up with a flat bed truck, piled it ridiculously high with our stuff and then using old bits of rope and odds and ends, tied the whole lot onto the truck (not covered!) and drove it to our new house.  Several trips later and it was done.  Simple, if alarming!

Here however, it’s a different story; do you move yourself, or get someone to move you?  Do you pack yourself, or (if you are in a position to do so) pay someone to pack for you?  Can you manage to drive a huge truck yourself?  These and many other questions…..

Well, a friend of mine has moved house recently and it was all organised and she was very happy with the arrangements, when at the last minute, the whole plan collapsed.  her blood pressure went through the roof and it looked likely that she was going to have to call the whole thing off.  However, she found these guys: the house removals company online and got in touch to see if they could help.  They did and the service she received was really first class.  I helped with the move and ended up chatting to someone from this company on the phone because it rang and I answered it as my friend was busy “supervising” (read: organising everyone in a somewhat flustered manner) and I commented to him that his company had done a great job. We got chatting about websites and blogs and things and I promised him that I would mention his company on my blog, because they truly saved the day for my friend.

So, if you are moving, take a look at them.  My experience is that they are very good indeed.
