Good Move...Or Great Move?

Let the reviews speak for themselves! We're the difference between a bad move, and a great one.

Removals In The Hot Weather

So you booked your move weeks ago and woke up to *this* weather. Normally we love a sunny Bank Holiday, but as it's a popular time for removals we should emphasise some basic health precautions for the hot, hot heat we're having.

Wheels Of Old

Our very own town of Pocklington has made the news with the recent unearthing of an iron age chariot. Impressive, ancient and culturally fascinating, but I daresay they didn't have the load capacity of a trusty removal van ;-)

All in all seriousness, this is huge news and a great milestone in Yorkshire's archeological history. What a find.

With each new toy we share their joy
With a christmas auld lang syne!

Removal Men: The Modern Day Santa?

Perhaps we're not quite as esteemed as the jolly red fellow, but we share many qualities. Both travel from home to home delivering anticipated packages. Both have friendly helpers at hand. We even get to enjoy the occasional mince pie!

In all seriousness, Christmas is a wonderful time of year to work in this industry. People seem chirpier, homes are warmer and there are colours aplenty to enjoy.

Yorkshire HS2 Route Confirmed - Attracts Early Criticism

While the routes for HS2 were only confirmed this week, the story has already begun to raise controversy in the local area. Residents of Mexborough, many of whom only moved to the Shimmer housing estate recently, warn that their homes could be bulldozed within a decade to make room for the new transport system.

Does Yorkshire need this? In light of earlier news that the Dales are to be expanded, does this lush green county suit the bulldozers, concrete and dirt that come with rail construction? Or, is it important that we stay connected so that we've got better transport links to other cities? Let us know!

Yorkshire Cities Shine In Work/Life Balance

More good news from the Yorkshire scene, as a recent study shows we outshine the rest of the country when it comes to work/life balance. That being said, there's still plenty more to be done, as this article shows in the Yorkshire Post.

Clocks Go Back - Removal Time!

Did You Know...

That November is one of our busiest months in the removal calendar?

Why?

Because it's the perfect time to schedule a stress-free house move, while also having the breathing space to enjoy Christmas in the new home. The heat is off from your holiday, and you can use half-term to get the kids involved in your adventure!

Why We Love Autumn

1. Cooler temperature makes for easier loading
2. Halloween decorations! They make the job very interesting
3. The beautiful, fiery colours of freshly fallen leaves
4. Autumn is a big season for buying and moving houses. That means we meet lots of interesting new people!
5. Autumn is the precursor to Christmas. But ssh! We don't talk about that just yet.

Home Moving Apps

I've noticed a number of moving and productivity apps for iOS and Android recently. The question is, are they any good? As a customer, have any of you had a good/bad experience with these? I'd love to know if any are worth recommending. Maybe 1 Van 1 Man should create their own?! Who knows what the future holds...
