1st Choice Removals give you ten top tips to save on your UK and International removal costs.

1. Make sure you book your removal in good time . Your removal can be much cheaper if the company is notified in time and if he can try to plan staff and vehicle times.

2. Always get several quotes. Remember though, 1st Choice Removals have a 110% Price Promise Guarantee. We will not be beaten on price, yet our standards are so high that we have been granted membership of The National Guild of Removers and Storers.

3. Packing and unpacking yourself . Buy packing materials, moving boxes, wardrobe boxes, stickers, bubble wrap ad all your other packaging requirements in advance from 1st Choice Removals at great prices. During packing you can select what to take and what not to take. Most removal companies will not insure fragile or valuable goods if they are owner packed. For items such as clothing and books, this will not be the case.

4. Select only what you need to take. Take only what you need. Everything you do take has to be paid for. Have a clear out in the process.

5. Disassemble large articles of furniture yourself. Large furniture, such as beds and wardrobes, cant often be moved out of your house in one piece. Mark the pieces to make assembling easier. Keep screws, bolts and keys in an envelope and put this to the furniture.

6. Get friends and family to help with moving. Often you may be able to get friends and family to help pack and load, this in turn will save time so therefore cut down your removal costs.

7. Take goods to the removal company yourself If you are sending goods abroad then or why not deliver them to the agent or port this will save about 20% of your removal costs.

8. Ask retail shops to deliver goods to your removal company. This is a good way of cutting down on costs and it is often easier for you because you don't have to store the goods.

9. Store with your removal company. Most removal companies have storage facilities and if you are flexible then they can arrange to collect your goods and store them for you. If you can be flexible on the days then this could help you save more money on your removal. 1st Choice Removals has extensive storage facilities in the UK, France and Spain but we can arrange storage in any part of the world.

10. Deliver the removal goods yourself. If you can move some of your items yourself then this again will save money on your removal, why not try and get access to your new property before you sell existing house and slowly move goods yourself. Most Removal companies will be happy with this moving process.
