What size vehicle do I need to move my home?

This depends on certain factors – the volume and weight of your belongings. You may think that you do not have a great deal of furniture and it will require a small van but if your belongings are particularly heavy such as oak furniture of boxes of records or books, this will have an impact on the gross weight of the vehicle.Here at Howarths Removals, our highly skilled surveyors will visit your property FREE OF CHARGE to work out how the move will go by checking home access and assessing how many removal porters and what size vehicle you will require for your move.This will ensure that on moving day, everything goes smoothly.

Using a professional removal company such as ourselves will ensure that you have hassle and stress free move as we take pride in looking after our customers from that first phone call to that last item going into your new home.
