Volume and Weight
How do you charge?
Our pricing is based on the volume and the weight of your goods. We use cubic metres do describe the size of your move and each cubic metre comes with allowance of 60kg.
Do you do onsite visits to confirm the volume?
No. As our clients are all over Europe, providing onsite visits is not cost and time effective.Â
How do you estimate the volume and weight?
The best way to estimate the volume and weight is to use our Self Survey App available here . Alternatively you can send us photos and list of your goods with measurements and weights.
What if I have more or less than booked?
If on the moving day it turns out that your volume/weight is higher than anticipated – in most cases we can collect it at extra cost - subject to available space. However if the volume will be lower, we cannot reduce the costs as the space was booked for you and we couldn't offer it to another clients.Â
