A & T Logistics
Rass Mian Chartered Accountants, 13 Whites Row, London, E1 7NF
A & T Logistics is a trusted and professional removals company operating across London and the surrounding areas.
"Unfortunately, although the guys worked hard on the day, it was needlessly long and stressful. I had booked well in advance with an online assessment of the inventory and received a competetive quote for 20 boxes and 2 Luton vans plus packing service. I followed this up with detailed videos of my entire contents, including opening every cupboard and drawer and following this the quote was altered to 30 boxes but still two Luton vans.The day before my move the guys turned up to pack but were running very late and didn't come until 7:30pm. When they arrived they were shocked at "how much there was to pack". I explained that I had sent the detailed videos (20+ minutes showing and explaining everything). To be fair, they managed to pack 30 boxes before they left around midnight but they were well short. They said they would come at 8am the next day but they were late because they had to go and get another 40 boxes! 40 more boxes needed to be packed and loaded and we were supposed to be out by 12pm! We ended up leaving at 4:30pm with stuff just being chucked into boxes without organisation. Oh and we needed to make a second trip so it was 3 Luton vans and I had to pay more on the day"

Our team has found the most timely information about moving within and from Medway. For those looking to buy a home in the area, the average property price is £267,371.
Friday is the most popular day for moving house and August is the most popular month. The average cost of moving is £1,295 and when it comes to choosing a removal company, we connect you with the best in the business.
According to our research, the average cost of moving house in Medway is currently £1,295, with Friday being the most popular day to move. As a result, Friday is often a more expensive day to move, with cheaper options potentially available for less popular days. In Medway, this would likely be a Sunday as just 5% of our customers opted to move at the end of the weekend.
Removal costs are largely based on the size of your property and the distance of your move, but the number of items you own can also contribute to the cost. The cheapest you can expect to pay in the area is £900, with the highest costing as much as £1,691. Don’t forget you can save up to 70% on the cost of your home move by comparing companies with us.
Our research found that June is the most popular time of year to move house, with over 11% of our customers choosing to move at the start of the summer. With longer and lighter days and the potential for better weather, it’s no surprise that this is a popular time to move. The second most popular day is August, again most likely due to better moving conditions, but also because this is during the school holidays and will mean minimal disruption for families with children.
If you are planning a summer move, be sure to book your moving company as early as possible as this time of year is often busy for companies.
The least popular time of year to move in Medway is December, with just 6% of our customers in the area choosing to move during the festive season. Most likely this will be due to a combination of potentially poor weather conditions, shorter days, and less light, in addition to the holiday season which is often busy.
November is also an unpopular time of year to move, with the same poor moving conditions to bear in mind. However, our research revealed September was also low down on the list, with just 7% of movers opting for this summer month. As September is when schools and universities resume, it is more than likely an unpopular time of year for families, teachers, and education professionals to move.
We found that in Medway, Friday was the most popular day to move house, with almost 32% of our customers in the area booking a removal company on this day. As the gateway to the weekend, Friday offers ample time to move and settle into a new home, with minimal disruption to the working week. It is also ideal for families with children at school.
With this in mind, Sunday proved to be the least popular day to move house in Medway, with just 5% of our users arranging a move on this day. In addition to potentially being inconvenient for those working throughout the week or with children who have school the next day, Sunday can also pose a problem as many estate agents and solicitors are shut. If there is a problem when moving in, it may not be addressed until the following day, causing disruption to the move.
That being said, Sunday is likely to be a cheaper day to move house, while Friday will be more expensive due to its popularity.
For those looking to move out of or within Medway, we’ve looked into our research to find the four most popular locations that our Medway users move to.
