Though many are often quick to look to hire NW1 removal services when looking at moving home, the idea of a complete packing service, that is to say one that comes to your home, packs your goods and then transports them on the big day, is one that isn’t quick to jump to the forefront of people’s minds. However, an NW1 packing service provides a wide variety of benefits to your moving experience, when compared with going it alone and when compared with a removal company. Your possessions are prized, they may well be priceless or irreplaceable to you, so it makes sense to try and give them the attention they deserve. Whether it is because of your hectic schedule, physical incapability or just simple convenience, a packing service will offer you a number of advantages when moving home.

One of these is that the trained packing professionals make it their duty to protect your more fragile goods. A simple NW1 removal company, whilst trying to be careful during the move, cannot be expected to know the contents of each individual box you pack. With a packing service, they will have prior knowledge of any boxes or possessions that will need to be taken into special consideration and this will prove much more useful than just the word “fragile” in big letters on the top of the box. This is an extra step you can take towards trying to maintain the integrity of your possessions with a packing service. In an expensive time this may well be the necessary process to try and save yourself from having to replace some of your more expensive items.

Furthermore, the packing services offered will also bring their own packing materials with them. Whilst this may seem trivial, compare an infinite amount of purpose built boxes for moving, Styrofoam nuggets, bubble wrap and safe pairs of hands with second hand boxes from your local corner shop and dish cloths as protection and you can quickly see why hiring a packing service is the better option. Trying to do this all on your own can easily get overwhelming, and that is when mistakes can be made.

Beyond this, many services will also provide a comprehensive insurance alongside their work. This means that if something is damaged and the packing service is at fault, you are entitled to claim back for the value of the item. Obviously this policy will vary from company to company, but most companies will offer something similar to this. It is important to check the fine print of each company’s contract just to make sure that you know what you are getting.

Many companies will also offer a “combined” service of sorts. This means that they will only come in and pack the items you feel necessary, such as particularly fragile items or possessions with certain complexities involved. They can then either leave you to your own devices or supply you with materials so that you can pack the rest of your possessions as you would normally. This means you will not have to pay for a service on your entire house when you only really want one item or room to be secure. Alongside this, you get the benefit of having a more personal relationship with someone who may be willing to do your removal for you as well as access to professional and high quality packing materials. Packing services are a way to streamline and secure your move and are designed for your convenience, using one to avoid any mishaps may well make your move a success.
