Common Moving Mistakes to Avoid

The 7 mistakes we see every single week — and how to dodge them.

1. Booking too late — the best slots go 3–4 weeks ahead.

2. Not measuring doorways for big furniture.

3. Forgetting parking suspensions.

4. Underestimating volume (the loft is full).

5. Skipping insurance.

6. Not labelling boxes.

7. Packing valuables in the van instead of carrying them yourself.
