Top 3 things to consider when you’re ready for your International removals

Below you’ll find Indalo Transport’s Top 3 things to consider in order to make your Spain removals run smoothly. It is important to choose the best removals company. That way you can start enjoying your adventure, rather than seeing it as an overwhelming challenge.

1. Inventory

She’s making a list – she may even check it twice!

Clearly it is going to cost you more to get your personal effects over to Europe than it would do if you just moved within the UK.

At Indalo Transport we base our prices on the inventory of items to move. It takes into account the weight as well as the volume of an item. This inventory can be sorted out by you, or we can visit you to survey what is to be moved. We also carry out a video surveys, using an app you can download onto your smart phone. As what you are taking to Spain is unique, along with the distance to be travelled and the work involved, each customer’s removals cost is unique. We work out our fee from the volume and weight, so if you only have a handful of things, your removals quote will work out a lot cheaper.

We also take into consideration how far apart the collection and delivery points are, so if you’d like to move to Tarragona, it will cost less than if you wanted to move to the Southern Coast of Spain.

You need to de-clutter

Whilst it can be quite to hard get rid of things, the process of de-cluttering is actually very therapeutic. If you’re struggling to part with your possessions, here are three questions to ask yourself about each item

Have I used it in the last three years?
Is it something that’s old, outdated and easily replaced?
Does it hold any sentimental value at all?

If you’ve not used something for a while, it’s safe to say that you’re probably not going to use it in the future, so sell it or give it away to charity, otherwise it’ll take up precious space in your removal van.

With no sentimental value at all, but you’re still not sure about whether to take it with you or not, have a look on eBay at what you could sell it for. The results may sway you into letting it go for some extra cash, which always comes in handy when you’re moving.

Use the cloud

If you have a lot of documents, why not scan them in to your computer. Then you’ll have digital copies of them that you can print out at a later date. But you may never need to. Alternatively, there are plenty of cloud based storage options for you to utilize. Services like Google Drive, Evernote, Onedrive or Dropbox. However, don’t just start shredding things willy-nilly. Certain official documents must be kept for up to 6 years.

It’s always hard to say how long de-cluttering your house will take, so it’s always best to start as soon as possible.

So, you’ve made a dent in what you’d like to take with you. You’ve completed your inventory. You know when it is that you’re wanting to move. Now is a great time to get in touch with Indalo Transport, as you are starting to get close to your move to Spain.
