Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work weekends?

Yes. We work weekends regularly, so if Saturday or Sunday suits you better, that's fine.

Do you dismantle furniture?

We can take the legs off beds to make them easier to shift, but we don't dismantle other furniture like wardrobes. If something needs to come apart, it's best to have that sorted before we arrive.

How far in advance should I book?

Book 1 to 2 weeks ahead if you can, especially for weekends. Shorter notice is fine too. Get in touch and we'll do what we can.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Ryan carries insurance, but items are moved at the customer's risk. We use protective blankets and tie-downs on every load, and you're welcome to ask about cover before you book.
