2. How much notice do I need to give?
This depends on our availabilty as when moving in a busier period there is a chance we will be fully booked but to ensure a booking we recommend confirmation around 2-3 weeks before your move.

5. What about insurance?
With Perry's, insurance is entirely optional. Most household policies include cover for removals that are carried out by Professional Companies and those which are members of the BAR, The British Association of Removers. So just check your existing policy and you may save money.
By offering you Insurance as an option, you will not pay VAT on the Insurance premium. With VAT at 20% this can amount to a big saving.
New for Old cover is available from us but is considerably more costly and most household policies that cover removals will offer you New for Old much cheaper, so check with your Insurer to ensure you don't pay for cover you already have.
You can purchase Standard Indemnity Insurance from Perry's at £10 for every £5,000 of goods value. Remember don't include in your declaration any goods that are not going on to the lorry. (Things like jewellery, watches, mobile phones, cameras etc. can amount to quite a high value and are not included in any Removal Insurance or Liability cover). A Summary of Cover is available to check what is included in Perry's insurance option.

6. What about my fridges and freezers? Do you have a power supply on the lorry?
We dont have power supplies to run any appliances whilst on the lorry so we highly recommend you run down your fridge/freezers so that we can carry them dry.

We have all the packing equipment and expertise needed to move almost any item. For clothes we provide wardrobe cartons so your clothes can travel on hangers.
