Cheap Removals

(0800) 0472607

Choosing Cheap Could Cost You More Than You Think

Moving day should be exciting — a fresh start, a new home, a chance to settle somewhere different. But for many people who opt for cheap-removals, that dream day can quickly turn into a disaster.

At first, choosing a low-cost mover might seem smart. With moving already being expensive, it’s tempting to go with whoever offers the cheapest rate. A quick search for “cheap-removals” pulls up loads of companies promising the same thing: low prices, fast service, and “experienced teams.” Sounds great, right?

The problem is that many of these services are cheap for a reason. They might skip important steps, lack proper training, or use unreliable vans. Unfortunately, people don’t usually see the risks until it’s too late — when the van doesn’t arrive, items are broken, or you’re hit with surprise fees.

No-Shows or Last-Minute Cancellations

One of the most common and frustrating things that go wrong is when the company simply doesn’t show up. We’ve heard from several customers who had their entire move ruined because their chosen mover never turned up — and they couldn’t get through to them on the phone either. Some cheap services even ask for an upfront deposit, only to cancel at the last minute or vanish entirely.

It’s also common for them to accept multiple jobs on the same day. If your move gets bumped or delayed due to poor scheduling or another “priority” client, you could be left stuck on the curb with your furniture and no van in sight. And on a move day, that’s a disaster.

Damaged or Broken Items

Cheap doesn’t always mean careful. Many low-cost movers don’t use proper packing materials or moving equipment. No trolleys, no blankets, no straps to secure your belongings during the drive. That means your stuff could get thrown around in the back of a van, scratched, or even completely broken.

We’ve had customers come to us after hiring a budget mover who shattered their TV, cracked their mirrors, or left furniture chipped. Sadly, in most of those cases, there was no insurance in place — and no responsibility taken. The customer had to pay for the damage themselves.

No Insurance, No Protection

Professional companies like Moving Circle Removals & Storage include full insurance coverage with every move. That means if something gets damaged, it’s covered. But a lot of cheap-removals services don’t offer that peace of mind.

Worse, many don’t even have basic business liability or goods-in-transit coverage. If something valuable gets damaged or lost, you’re left footing the bill. Some will even try to avoid blame by saying the item was already in poor condition — and you’ll have no way to prove otherwise if you never signed a proper agreement.

Hidden Charges That Add Up Fast

Many people book a cheap mover based on a flat price they see in an ad — £150 for a full house move, for example. But then the day comes, and suddenly the price goes up. There’s a “stairs fee,” a “fuel surcharge,” or a “waiting time” fee because your keys were 10 minutes late. In some cases, the mover refuses to unload your items until you pay the new amount in cash.

These surprise costs can quickly turn what looked like a good deal into something more expensive than hiring a proper, professional mover in the first place. If the company didn’t give you a written quote, it’s your word against theirs.

Lack of Professionalism and Communication

Moving day is already stressful — the last thing you need is a team that’s rude, careless, or completely unprepared. Unfortunately, many cheap services hire untrained labourers or people with no experience in removals. They might show up late, leave early, or simply not care about your belongings.

Communication is another big issue. They may not confirm bookings, change times at the last minute, or simply ignore your calls when something goes wrong. We’ve even had people tell us the mover got the address wrong and then blamed the client.

When you’re trusting someone with your furniture, memories, and time, poor communication isn’t just frustrating — it’s dangerous.

Why It Matters

Your moving day should go smoothly. You shouldn’t have to worry about whether your van will arrive or if your things will arrive in one piece. While we all want to save money where we can, going too cheap often comes at a much bigger cost — your time, your possessions, and your peace of mind.

Good to Know….

Book Early

Ideally, book your removal company 4-6 weeks before your move date to allow time for a pre-move survey and compare quotes.

Packing and Unpacking:

Packing and unpacking services add to the overall cost, with comprehensive packing typically adding £400-£500 for a 3-bedroom house and unpacking costing around £200.

Book Storage Here

Easily book storage with no minimum term or unnecessary contract, so we can assess the volume of what you would like to be moved and gather information needed in order to provide an accurate price. Alternatively, call us on 0800 0472607 to book a home visit.

Why It’s Worth Investing in a Reputable Mover

After everything you’ve read, it’s easy to see that hiring a cheap-removals service might not be the bargain it appears to be. While the upfront cost may seem attractive, the hidden risks and potential consequences can turn your moving day into a disaster — costing you more money, time, and stress than you ever expected.

What’s often overlooked is that a house move involves more than just boxes and a van. You’re entrusting people with your personal belongings — your memories, your valuables, your essentials. And when that trust is placed in the wrong hands, the emotional toll can be just as damaging as the financial one.

Not Just a Van — A Full Service You Can Rely On

Professional removal companies like Moving Circle Removals & Storage don’t just offer transport. We provide a complete moving experience — one that’s built around efficiency, reliability, and your peace of mind. From the moment you contact us, we offer guidance, support, and tailored services that fit your needs and your budget.

We arrive on time, use clean and well-equipped vans, and bring trained staff who know how to lift, load, and protect your belongings. Our team is friendly, respectful, and accountable — no guessing, no shrugging, and no excuses.

Unlike many unverified cheap-removals outfits, we provide:

Upfront, honest quotes with no hidden charges
Full insurance coverage so your items are protected
Flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends
Packing materials and optional packing services
Professional equipment like trolleys, straps, blankets, and ramps
A clear agreement that outlines the scope of the job

You might pay slightly more — but what you get in return is dependable service and peace of mind on one of the most important days of your life.

You Can Still Save — Without Risk

We understand that not everyone has a big moving budget. That’s why our team works with you to find ways to make your move affordable without cutting corners. Need to move during off-peak hours? We can arrange that. Only need help with loading and transport? We’ll scale the job accordingly. Want to do your own packing? No problem — we can supply sturdy boxes and give advice.

There are plenty of ways to keep your move budget-friendly — but hiring the absolute cheapest service you can find isn’t always one of them. A few pounds saved now can end up costing you ten times more in damage, delays, or disaster.

Final Thoughts: Trust the Experts, Avoid the Stress

If your goal is to move house smoothly and securely, don’t gamble on a company just because they offer the lowest price. Do your research. Check their reviews. Ask questions. Look for a team that provides value — not just a cheap promise.

At Moving Circle Removals & Storage, we take pride in offering a service that’s both affordable and professional. We’ve built our reputation on reliability, care, and transparency — and we’re here to help you move forward without worry.

So next time you’re tempted to click on the first ad for cheap-removals, pause and ask yourself: what’s it really going to cost me?

Choose smart. Choose secure. Choose Moving Circle. Reach out today for a custom quote and expert advice — we’re ready when you are.

FAQ’s!

Do I need a Survey?

A reputable removals company will offer a free pre-move survey. This will consist of sending a member of staff to your home to analyse your moving needs. Sometimes, this survey can also be done via video call if you prefer, for ease and convenience.

The pre-move survey should allow your removals company to establish how big the move will be, so they can plan and prepare what they’ll need to provide in terms of staffing and equipment. It’s also a chance for you to discuss if you need any additional services, such as storage or packing.

After the survey, you should ask for a full written quote for what has been discussed.

Do they Supply Packaging Materials?

Most removal companies should be able to provide you with packing material. Of course, you’re welcome to get your packing materials elsewhere, but getting them from your professional removal company should help to keep your belongings safe and protected while they’re being moved.

Many removal companies will be able to provide boxes, as well as packing paper or bubble wrap, and padded bags for fragile items, if required. Speak to your removal company about exactly what they can provide, how much it will cost and when they will be able to deliver the material to you so you can start packing.

Are there any items they can’t move?

If you have dangerous goods that need moving, you should check whether your insurance company is able to move them. Often, due to health and safety requirements, removal companies might not be able to move certain goods, and you will have to move them yourself. This could include flammables, corrosives and firearms.

If you have any items that you think might cause a problem, be sure to bring it up with your removal company so they can confirm. Or, check the terms and conditions that your removal company will provide you with, here items not to be included for carriage should be listed.
