We just kept them very well fed and watered (and nothing was broken when it got to this end ).

as an idea they are spending 2 days packing & then loading the container - a quantity of up to around 850 cubic feet, which is most of the contents of a 3 bed house. Some companies may put more men on to get it done in 1 day.

Karen went mad and packed 50% of our stuff for them. We just gave them plenty to drink as they had tea breaks every hour . We also gave the one young lad our bed as when we took it apart a few bits had broken and he said he could weld it back ( next day he said it was the best nights sleep he has had in ages ). He also had a old spray gun of mine.

Well we didn't bring a huge amount with us (I guess it came to half a house worth though in the end ) and it was mostly packed up because we lived with the in-laws for a while. So it only took them about 6 or 7 hours to pack it up.

Ours were from John Mason, (Liverpool) so didn't want them in the house too long as other things might of disappeared! (j/k) Can reccomend them by the way.

Just kept them well stocked in brews and told them there was a butty shop round the corner. We only took 15sqm so they didn't take long, maybe 3 hours.
