International Shipping Company home visit / survey
 
We call this a move consultation, but its sometimes also known sometimes as a “survey” or a “home visit” - general good practice for a moving company will involve having someone visit your home to (as a minimum) assess how much you want to take with you – the “volume” of your move. A professional mover focused on providing you with a good service will also use this opportunity to understand more about your requirements and make sure they have all the information they need to give you a detailed, fully inclusive price and to make sure you have all the information you need to be ready for and comfortable with your move.
  • Show the move consultant around your home so they can see the items you wish to move
  • Answer their questions about the details of your move
  • Discuss your individual wishes and requirements for your move and possible solutions
  • Get tips and advice for the move
  • Ask any questions you have about your concerns for the move
  • Understand what happens next
Our guide to getting the most out of your move consultation and as a result the best options to suit you can be found here http://www.bournes-uts.co.uk/news/en...g-surveys.aspx including:
