What should a moving quote include?
Offers differ. A useful moving quote explains the job, included work, possible extra charges and applicable terms. Read the complete offer rather than relying on the total alone.
The core details
Look for addresses, date and time, a job description, charging basis and what the price covers. Check materials, possible surcharges, insurance and responsibility, payment and cancellation terms.
Services often quoted separately
Packing, unpacking, assembly, disposal and storage may be extras. If you need a service, ask explicitly whether it is included and how it is priced. Check whether VAT is included rather than assuming.
Get clarifications in writing
If a point is missing, ask the company and retain its written answer. Have agreed changes added to the offer so the final record matches your move. Use the quotation checklist to organise the review.
Frequently asked questions
Is insurance always included in the same way?
No. Ask how cover applies, including exclusions and self-packed belongings.
What if an important task is missing?
Ask the company to confirm the task and price in writing before accepting.
Does the quoted price include VAT?
Check the offer; the treatment of VAT should be clear.
