PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can anyone recommend a a decent removal company which doesn't charge astronomic prices or even just a reliable removal company search tool.
My only large items are a double bed, a 3 seater sofa, a TV and a desktop plus I have some boxes, bags and 3 chests. In fact I would get rid of the big stuff and just move myself except it would take several journeys in my small car and it's a 2-3 hour journey one way.

I used this site last time I moved areas. It's great, you put in the details of your move and then people bid for the job, you can really get a bargain if you are lucky....

Cheers folks,
On a knife edge now waiting for that crucial exchange.0 -
If you are willing to move yourself why not hire a van, we have hired twice when moving before we had a lot of items.0

We were very happy with Pollards when we moved 18 months ago (within West Yorkshire).
How much are you being quoted? The bulk of the cost is in the use of their van and guys for a day - the actual amount of stuff doesn't make much difference unless there's so much that you need a bigger van.
I would agree with a previous poster - if you're able to, it would be cheaper to hire a van (you can drive up to a Luton sized van on a normal licence) and do it yourself.No longer a spouse, or trailing, but MSE won't allow me to change my username...0
