We paid proper removal guys for the main bulk of my Nans stuff to be moved to her flat (large dresser, wardrobes, 3 pc suite, oven etc) and tbh the removal men were useless! Didn't bring tools to dismantle things, wouldn't disconnect the oven and didn't tell us that previously, damaged things etc. I'd honestly have rather done it myself but didn't have anyone to help lift large items on the day.
You likely wouldn't be moving on your own. I'd certainly be roping in friends and family.
That only works if you have friends and family...
My Dad wouldn't lift anything in case he hurt his back so that was it lol.
When I moved to my flat I did it all with the Focus, but the only large item I brought was a reclining arm chair...which I could get into the car but not up the stairs lol, Rowell came and helped get it up lol. White (well, silver) goods were delivered new the next day...no idea how I'm gonna move those down the stairs without paying 'professional' removal men when the time comes!
