Yesterday we got an online student removals query from Leeds to Bradford. James had just got admission in some course at the University of Bradford and was moving into some student accommodation. We welcomed him and sent our free quote which he gladly accepted after comparing our rates with some of the other companies, and to his pleasure, our prices were very reasonable within affordable ranges with multiple services.
He opted for our regular man with a van service, and within no time we booked his student removal deal. Today morning, he received our man with a Luton lorry to his house located at 120 roman roads, Leeds. The things were packed inside the cardboard packing boxes provided by us to prevent any damage during the shifting time. He had usual student stuff, the things got loaded and moved to an accommodation situated near 255 Manningham Ln, Bradford BD8 7EP. James rated our service as an excellent student removal experience.

Tsunade came to us with a house removals query from Bradford to London. She had experience in moving her house before but was not satisfied with the service. One of her friends, whom we had assisted in past, told her about our company’s service quality for removals in Bradford. Receiving this positive feedback, she contacted us, and our managers welcomed her with a cup of coffee while listening to her concerns regarding the house removal and of course the side talk we had about the workers in Arab countries and specially the iqama check for expiry venture we discussed, what a fruitful discussion.
As she shared her last experience, she got her location cordinates from my location and sent it us, by doing so we noticed she was charged unfairly and some of the furniture was also damaged. We thanked her for trusting us and told not to worry about anything, for her valuables will be in safe and professional hands. Discussing further details regarding house size, location, and time, made her quite relaxed. We sent a removal expert from our highly skilled staff to physically inspect the house location and moveable items. Her house was in Eccleshill. It was a 2-bed simple house situated on Acre Avenue. Our removal expert briefed her after making an onsite assessment and 2 transit vans were sent to her doorstep. She also had some fragile items which we packed in special boxes to maintain as intact as they were. The allotted crew loaded up the things and the move was made from Bradford BD2 to Crews Hill in the northern outskirts of London.
She was very happy with our service and thanked our exceedingly professional crew to provide her a quick and profound service for a very reasonable cost.

Two days ago, George came to us with this house removal request. It was his first moving experience and he did not know much about the man and van services. Our managers received him with warm greetings and asked about his house items to be shifted. He told us he is moving from a village Eldwick located nearby Bingley to Leeds. He was not sure how many vans will be required to transport all the stuff. We ensured him not to worry and sent one of our removals experts to visit his house and sketch a layout for him. Accompanied by George, our man reached his house. It was a three-bed sized furnished home located on Southway Eldwick. Along with other commodities, George also needed some chairs, sofas, and beds to be moved. Our sent representative physically inspected the house as well as the items to be shifted and accordingly suggested 2 MWB transit vans along with 1 LWB transit van to make the removal all at once. We also offered George a free packaging service since he was our first client. He was happy with all the work. We remained in contact, and today a move was made from Southway Eldwick, Bingley to a house situated in Holts Crestway, Leeds. All the valuables were transported safely within no time. The fragile items were packed in special boxes and the heavy stuff was dismantled by professionals and then remounted at the new house. George was very much satisfied with our service.
Shifting, whether it is from one place to another in the same city or to another city, is a whole a tiresome process. It starts from packing the office items then loading them into the removal van, and moving the items, then finally unloading the items at the desired location. The process needs to be smooth as possible and continuous for the full removal to occur on time.
Merely thinking of this process as a whole, it is quite frightening for a person who has never gone through this process. You need to boost yourself up for making a list of which items you need to shift to the new location, and which objects to leave behind.
You don’t know whether the furniture you are shifting will reach the destination safely or not. For this surety, you need to check whether you are having removal insurance or not. The only information we receive is, some name which is somewhat related to the protection about objects which we move from one place to another. However, there is more to learn about this extensive topic.
Insurance, in a nutshell, is reassurance for you and relief of worries from the damage to your property and items. Several companies offer their customers with care for their product, which are either in storage or they need to shift within the city. Several removal insurances are available which includes;
1. Full-service insurance, including all risks (Load and Drive):
As the name indicates, in this category you will receive maximum coverage on the products. You can get this insurance for moving items from one country to another, shifting from one city to another in the same region or moving furniture within the same city. All you need is to make a list of the items you want to insure and make a replacement for that. They offer you to make a category of insurance objects like office furniture, and you will get the average amount for the group. They also give a replacement value. The value of the product of more than $1000 need to be separately registered.
You get a full replacement on some products while on others for other products you need to give a replacement value which you get for damage to your product.
2. Full-Service Insurance Perils ( They load and drive):
They cover the damage expenses for products which are always in motion. The terms and conditions are strictly followed. This coverage includes products delivery and storage time. Any damage to the product during storage will also be recovered.
Well, the sad part is that any damage to the items during loading and unloading are not covered under this insurance type. Hence one needs to extra take care and hire some professional staff for the whole process. We have already mentioned to you about the professional services offered by Bradford Removal Service for office shifting.
They further divide their insurance offers into two categories, which cover coverage for selected items or pay insurance for the total product value. For selected items, you need to choose the products to be insured and make a replacement offer for them. You can also use this policy for the next working location.
For total product, the value includes insurance coverage for the whole shipment. You add all your products in the purchase for insurance and give a total estimated amount for insurance. If there is an item more than $500, you need to separate place that objects for protection. To avoid any difficulty and problem do place a replacement offer on the entire shipment.
3. Mobile Storage Insurance ( You Load, and they drive):
All the insurance coverage is done according to the terms and conditions. It also includes damage done to the objects during loading and relocation. But the amount of insurance retrieval is done according to the terms and conditions and type of insurance.
The company will not recover any damage done during loading and unloading of products, although the products are insured. It also does not require damage done by a professional party. It is imperative that special care is taken for shifting of the items.
The peril insurance companies further categorize their cover as selected inventory and total value insurance. Same as other insurance types this category includes customized items with replacement offers suggested before shipment date. Again you need to recommend a proper replacement value. It is the best-suited offer for you as it does not lessen your insurance amount.
The total value insurance covers the damage to your entire product delivery. Estimate your products and then declare the full amount. To avoid any difficulty for the non-insured products, you can also make a replacement offer on the entire shipment.
4. Truck rental insurance (You Load and You drive)
Well, this insurance is usually best suited for shifting across cities or within cities. The insurance covers damage done only during the movement of order. Whether the damage is done by an accident or the item get lost as a result of the robbery. Apart from that, you don’t get any recovery on damage to the vehicle. All you get is the recovery of the amount on the cost of transporting items.
They don’t cover any loss to goods during loading or unloading of goods. They further divide the insurance options into selected inventory and total value. All you need is to choose the items to insure and then pick a replacement offer. While in total value calculate the total amount of transported goods and get insurance coverage for the whole products.
5. Insurance for total loss:
This coverage is for damage due to a catastrophic event such as accidental fire, accident, or robbery of the vehicle as a whole. As a result of these damages, the whole items are lost, and you can get some recovery for the loss. This covers lost of products as a whole while no recovery is made for individual item lost.
This insurance gives a low estimate as compared to other above mentioned types of coverages. You can get a total insurance coverage before shifting your goods or furniture. The time limit is two days before packing the goods and requires a professional removal company.
A removal insurance gives you relief from the worries of loss done during shifting. Very few people know about them and those who know rarely use these coverage. Many insurance companies offer the third party removal insurance through the collaboration of shipment companies.
Check your documents whether you have coverage or not. If the answer is no, then do not hesitate to receive your coverage before planning your removals.

Packing the product:
We offer a wide range of product packing. This packing starts from hard items like furniture parts which are first disassembled and then wrapped with suitable wrapping material. The office furniture is mostly wood or made from iron. Some items which are exposed to water can get easily damaged, hence the packaging should be waterproof. Bradford Removal Service offer their customers with the best packaging available for furniture removals.
We wrap the goods with polythene, poly film, corrugated paper, and bubble wrap. For expensive and delicate office furniture and items, we cover them multiple times as there is no crying over spilled milk. So, it is better to avoid the loss rather than crying after damage.
We don’t use bubble wrap directly on the glass objects. Before wrapping them with bubble wrap, we cover them with wrapping paper to avoid the formation of permanent impressions on the glass. Shrink wrapping and edge protecting wrapping are also applied to the furniture to safeguard damage while shifting. There is a chance that goods might rub against each other or with the walls of the vehicle during the transit.
Loading and Unloading furniture

If you have a plan of shifting to a new office and you want some professionals to deliver your items without any damage to them. You can take the services of professional at Bradford Removal Service. We have a professional team which works from loading the substances and then safely unloading them at your destined location.
Shifting furniture is not an easy task for a person. You are not able to pack all of your furniture by yourself and then load it onto a truck. Now coming towards the shifting, we don’t directly load the substances in the vehicle and shift them. Our team members individually pack every item to assure that it will not get damaged while moving. The packaging comes with international standards. The packaging of sensitive items like computers and electronic gadgets is done with complete care.
Office furniture includes expensive and antique items. While some of the items are difficult to disassemble by yourself, and moving furniture without disabling them would damage the furniture. So, you need to think before shifting and hire the services of a professional because we take care of what matters to you.
It is not necessary to take all the objects with you. If you think there are some worn-out objects, throw them away. Keep in mind to pack all the essential documents with you. Some of the packing tips we use during our work are;
Disassemble the furniture so they can be adequately packed.
Adequately cover all parts of the disassemble items with wrapping sheet and tapes to avoid any scratch problem.
Delicate items like computers and printer machines, we separately packed with tapes and soft cardboard.
Our professional staff loads the products into the vehicle.
For moving laboratory equipment or the goods of a photo studio which contains expensive items, we take extra special care of them. These products also require special attention during shifting.
Want to self supervise the staff for reliability?
If you don’t want to leave everything on the working staff, you can take time to supervise the team during the packing process. When you are managing by yourself, you also have an idea that everything is going smoothly.
Loading and Moving
Once we pack the furniture and equipment, we need to load them on the vehicle for delivery. Well, loading requires a coordinated activity, and it is a strenuous task.

Office removal is, for sure, a big project and any plan without proper management fails. No office relocation is light on the pockets. It consumes a lot of money, effort, and time. An appropriate sense of leadership and ownership will help you win in life. Before taking this big decision, you must be clear in your mind that why does one want to relocate? Below are a few choices among many:
To make a better corporate image and brand name. If you move to an area where there is more competition and chances of growth are wide. By offering uniqueness in your services. People will start knowing you and your brand market will increase.
To reduce the employee turnover rate. Moving to a better place with improvised facilities will increase employee satisfaction.
To have a better office layout plan. Either to have more space or to have a compressed space with fewer units.
Now that you’ve chosen your reason for shifting to a new place, follow the below-mentioned instructions for successful office relocation:
Set a timeline:
It is the most crucial step in any project. Splitting your project into sub parts makes it more accessible. Start by prioritizing your tasks and set a realistic time-frame. If you own a big office with multiple stories, set a broad timeline. However, at least keep four months prior-planning in your mind. Don’t delay the tasks and start as early as you can. Moving an office is more hectic than moving a house, so it requires more planning and concentration.
Make a team:
Gather your employees and inform them about your decision. Assign them tasks and duties. It’s better to have team coordination. A single man army can’t handle this alone. Make a project supervisor and start counseling your employees about the change to come. An organization has employees of different colors under one umbrella. And not everybody thinks the same way, some people are resistant to change and are strong-headed. It is necessary to make your employees ready for it, so the performance doesn’t get affected later on. Have a spot on communication between your employees, get their input, and try to implement their ideas where applicable. The current workload and commitments are still present, so you have to keep everybody on the same page. A motivated team can win many lotteries and an unmotivated team can bring you down like anything, so keep them involved and try to bring their morale up.
Designing the new space:
Ask your employees what they need in the new office? What fascinates them? And what additional facilities do they need? Once you collect their input, hire an interior designer. Tell him what modifications you need. Spacious offices produce more thoughtful, productive, and creative employees rather than the ones sitting in a congested environment. While designing your office, choose detachable furniture. Office furniture often comes in amorphous shapes, which consumes more space. Go for simpler looking furniture, it looks stylish and is less spacious. Also, add some greenery to your new office. Indoor plants help lower the stress level and increase mental health.
Visit the new space frequently and look for any defects. If there are any breakages or you observe seepage in the walls or anywhere, get it fixed.
Get rid of the old data and electronics:
I am sure you’ll be excited about moving into your new office. The creaky furniture and equipment must be irritating you. It happens, but wait. Don’t get over-excited; you might hurt your dignity. Before throwing your old gadgets, don’t ever forget to clear the data. Go through every folder of your laptop, mobile, and tablets. Clean sweep everything. Not a single tiny bit of any information must be left. It can harm your company’s reputation if any data gets leaked.
Once you’ve cleared the data, refer to your community recycling programs. These programs are ideal for waste reduction. Good companies not only work on raising their profits, but they also follow corporate social responsibility guidelines.
Hire a moving company:
No matter how many offices you’ve shifted, you can’t trust your guts alone. Moving an office is no joke. You’re taking a truck full of luggage with you, for this, you need a good moving company. Make sure that the removal company you chose is reliable, safe, and trustworthy. You don’t have to worry about your luggage being displaced or mishandled.
Any growing business can’t hold on to its operations for a long time. Imagine you’re missing on the targeted deadlines and the on-going projects. And you’re left with zero customer retention, but an expert moving company won’t let you down. It will know how important your business priorities are for you.
I have an excellent suggestion for you which is to hire the most trusted firm known as “Bradford removal service”. They will help you move to your new office space proficiently. With their high expertise and added experience in this business, you can completely trust them with your personal belongings. What are you waiting for? Go ahead and get your reservation as soon as possible.
Office moving is one hell of a job. It brings with it a lot of stress and discomfort if you don’t plan wisely. When we design things ahead of time, we save ourselves from uncalled pressure. And that’s what an excelling management team does.
Whether it is about your business’s outgrowth or anything, always make a timeline. Not only create a schedule but make sure that you follow it. Here is a well-researched checklist explicitly designed to save your business from becoming inefficient.
Four months before shifting:
Of course, you won’t decide it a night before that you’re relocating like we do with talking about star wars quotes and the sensational talks. There must be some planning which you’d have done in the backend of your mind. Right? Start by jotting down your thoughts on your shifting. Make a vision statement and list down all the pros and cons of your decision. Never plan things alone, but involve the whole team in it, as this is going to affect the entire unit, not you alone.
It’s crucial to look at your current resources, how much capital do you have? What is your human resource? What do you have in store for you? And lastly, as I have mentioned this before, get your team involved. Split the entire unit into bunches and divide them their tasks. Decide your date of moving, then plan accordingly. Look at your inventory and place order for the things of which you’re short.
Make a list of the things which you want to change, renovate, and donate. Plan a site visit and get the blueprints of the design plan. Check if the new place of shifting is big or small. If it’s a big space, then you’ll have to order more furniture. Also, determine the no. of employees who’ll be working in the new office. Contact your leaser. It’s imperative to give prior notice to your contractors and inform them about your date of leaving and terminating the current lease plan.
Two months before leaving:
Please call the individual department heads and get their input on your project. The IT department holds a central place in any office, as this is where the data is stored. For any office, record-holding is essential. If the data gets lost, there are chances that the company might lose its name and more importantly, its productivity. So, to make sure that things work smooth, plan accordingly. Make sure you get the insurance certificates. Also, contact the furniture vendors and other vendors and communicate them the delivery dates.
Identify reliable office moving companies. No matter how competent they are, you need to keep your ears open while shifting. Start a hiring campaign to recruit new security personnel for the new office. Make sure you file a request for change of address, telephone, and fax numbers. Communicate further contact details to your clients, partners, affiliates, and stakeholders. Look for a suitable parking space in or around the premises of the new office. Book an escalator and confirm your contract. Make a master plan for each floor and communicate it with the floor heads.
One month before shifting:
Now we’re done with the initial work, but the real work is yet to come. Contact the vendors and make sure that the things you’ve ordered for have arrived. If there’s a change of plan, inform the vendors and re-order. Or if the arrived shipment has any defects, get it changed. Make frequent visits to the new office; look for any possible renovations. Make sure that the electricity, water, gas, and internet connections are up to date. Contact the service providers and tell them to initiate your service contract once you shift.
Start packing; label everything. Put tags on every little thing you want to take with you. Make team leads, and assign them their tasks of packing. Leave one day for one room; it will help you be more organized. Don’t empty the file cabinets. Take them as it is, but make sure to wire wrap the holders, so nothing spills out. Separate the things you want to discard and recycle. Arrange packing crates and boxes. Your luggage must arrive in the new office, a week before your leaving. Make sure you get the new building deep cleaned before moving. Hire a cleaning service and get both the offices cleaned and cleared.
Contact the movers and decide a date of moving. Make sure that you’ve given the new building’s floor plan to each department with added facilities. Never forget to confirm the availability of the loaders.
A week before moving:
Now that the date of closing nears go through the inventory. Make sure that everything necessary is in the packaging lot. The keys and the file cabinets shall be wire locked. Also, put temporary quotes referring to the directions and rooms. The upgraded furniture and other office supplies are in their places.
Unplug the central machinery a week before leaving. As if you unplug and pack it earlier, how will you run your office? Confirm your area of work during the shifting days. As you don’t want to stop your business operations, keep them going. Make sure you prepare the instructional booklets for reinstalling the equipment in the new office. It will save time and effort.
Also, stack a bunch of snacks in the new office prior moving.
The moving day:
On the day of moving call a short meeting and discuss the moving plan with your employees. Ask your employees to submit the old keys and hand them over the new ones. Inquire them about their designated tasks of packing. Make sure that everything gets carefully loaded into the van. After loading, take an in-depth tour of the empty office and make sure that nothing is left behind. Keep the lading bill with you, until you reach. This bill will help you in-case of any accidents or damage. The moving company has to pay back any loses.
When you reach the new building, start unpacking. Follow the instructional booklet for assembling the equipment. Retest every device and get it serviced before installing. In this way, if any dust particle gets stuck in it during packing, it can be removed. And the machine’s efficiency won’t get affected. Don’t dump the packing material, instead recycle it.
It is always preferable to plan ahead and to avoid any inconvenience on shifting day. Your employees have worked hard to see this day, collaborate with each other and give yourselves a treat by having a fine dine ☺ This will freshen the mood up and your employees will be satisfied and content.
You’re moving an entire office to a new place, Ah-it’s hectic. A lot of patience, hard work, stress, and the cost get involved. But we are looking for some budget-friendly options. No matter how much we try to stay in our budget, we can exceed it. From where does this added expense comes? Somebody asked. Here is a long list; the moving containers, traveling, damaged or stolen equipment, and it continues. But we have a solution to everything. To increase your business proficiency, adopt these strategies, and keep winning on life.
Office moving boxes:
If you have a big company and you’re getting massive revenues, you won’t mind investing in moving boxes. But for small scale companies, I won’t suggest this. Plan a market tour with your colleagues, visit different departmental stores or book stores. People often throw these boxes away once their shipment arrives. Big stores like Walmart and Tesco give their boxes for free. Look for sturdy boxes; in which your goods won’t get damaged. If there is some defacing, ignore it. You can fix it using high-end commercial duct tape.
You can also refer to social media community groups and post there that you need some moving boxes. Our world is full of generous people; there will be a lot of helping hands coming forward. Refer to the recycling hubs of your community; they will provide you with cheap up-cycled boxes.
Before you rush to buy the moving boxes, look around the office itself. Scan the office store you’ll for sure find some old boxes lying in there, waiting to get used.
There’s a common assumption that big boxes store a lot. But, wait you’re wrong. Bigger boxes are no less than a drama. They’ll bluff you like anything. Make a rule that you’ve to use the smaller ones and try to fit in maximum items in them. We believe that bigger boxes can store a lot and save us from stress. But they only occupy more space and fewer goods. I am sure you’ll be thinking to put your favorite curved office lamp in a fairly big box. And it must be fragile having a unique mirror work on it so nothing else can sit alongside it. Right? Yeah right. So, in conclusion, put those items which you think are substantial, separate. Not in the box.
Crates and bins:
Moving office is an accomplishment. But the fatigue it carries along with it is unexplainable. Moving crates are also used globally to pack your goods and transfer them to the new location. There are a few moving crate service providers, from whom you can rent out their crates. These guys will bring empty containers to your office; you will pack the goods and seal them. After you make sure that everything is in there, take your supplies to the new vicinity. Once you’ve unloaded and unpacked, they will come to pick-up their empty crates. These crates are eco-friendly. They decompose much quicker than the cardboard boxes. One of the many benefits of using the moving crates is this that they are stackable. They occupy less space, and they’ve rolling wheels installed under them. You won’t tear your arm muscles carrying those bulky cardboard boxes.
Use bins for storing the minute office supplies. You can put your planters in them to save space.
Labels:
Never forget to label your boxes. Label everything. Use several colored permanent markers; they are ideal for labeling. Their ink won’t spill out, and your writings will be safe. Use the numbering technique; assign a number to each department. Let’s say if the marketing department is assigned the number One, label each box which belongs to the marketing unit as ‘One. It will help you keep track of all the containers belonging to individual departments.
Equipment:
One of the most tiresome processes is packing the equipment. Give special instructions to the loaders about your expensive equipment and furniture. I would recommend you never throw away the original boxes of the machine. Prefer packing them in the same containers in which they had first arrived. Use bubble wrap or linen to pack them, and then put in the box. Take a bunch of newspapers or used papers and use them as lining. You can use thermocol or foam sheets to surround your equipment. In case of any accidents, this will prevent your machinery from a collision. Instruct the loaders to keep the stuff under controlled temperatures. The reason being, many electronic devices require a certain degree of warmth for their storage. You should appoint a particular person to go with the van, as there are chances of theft.
Kits and supplies:
You’re likely to have different sizes of items to pack. For this, you need to have various sizes of boxes, more sturdy boxes for lightweight items and smaller ones for more substantial goods. Use a double lining of cardboard to pack fragile items. Along with boxes and padding, you will need to purchase a lot more other things to secure your shift.
Packing tapes will ensure you keep your boxes safe when you move from your old office to the new location. Along with packing tape, you’ll also need a couple of markers. To label, use color markers. Box cutters, zip lock bags, and mattress covers are used to keep your items clean and scratch-free. Bubble cushioning is very useful to protect the fragile goods. As you’ve covered and wrapped everything, don’t forget to seal the strapping using a strapping sealer.
Along with these, you’ll also need some water-resistant sheets, transparent sheets, and industrial blankets. These categories of leaves are used to protect your luggage from any damage.
Heavy-duty machine moving skates are used to load the machinery into the van. Place the boxes one on one, tip the stack forward by pushing on the top edge. After tipping the stack, slide the cart under by pushing with your foot. As done, load the piles into the van like we do at our bradford removals company.
Office supplies are the most lost goods. Because they are minute and they get misplaced easily. I have come up with an easy suggestion; don’t empty the drawers. Yes, you’ve heard it right. Keep the stationary into the drawers; let them be paperclips to stapler pins. Let it be a stack of A4 pages to erasers, sharpeners, pens, and whatnot. Don’t miss out on the signature stamps. Take heavy-duty duct tape and put multiple layers of it over the drawer until it’s fully covered. To keep everything safe; I have generated a list of all the essential supplies you need for moving.
Now that you’ve packed everything, you’re ready to go 🙂
