What to Expect
Moving day can be tiring, with the wait for solicitors’ calls and collecting keys from estate agents. We know there are many concerns besides loading and unloading boxes, which is why having everything organised — and the right team beside you — makes all the difference.
How Mills Removals Takes Care of You
When moving day arrives, it’s not just about transporting boxes — it’s about having the right people by your side. Our removal crew are your on-the-day experts, ready to offer guidance, reassurance, and practical help whenever you need it.
If you’re unsure about how something should be packed, where furniture might fit best, or simply need advice in the moment, our team will step in with experience and care. We’ll keep everything running smoothly so you can focus on the important details, like collecting keys and finalising paperwork.
From quick packing fixes to thoughtful suggestions, you’ll always have experienced hands supporting you throughout the move.
Moving Day Tips
To make your day easier, here are our top recommendations:
- Keep essentials separate: Pack a “Day Box” with kettle, mugs, tea/coffee, snacks, phone chargers, toiletries, and bedding for the first night.
- Stay connected: Keep important documents, ID, and solicitor/estate agent contact numbers handy.
- Label clearly: Mark boxes with room names so our team can place them in the right spot straight away.
- Protect valuables: Carry jewellery, passports, and personal documents with you rather than in the removal van.
- Plan for pets & children: Arrange care or keep them in a safe space away from the busy loading/unloading areas.
- Check utilities: Take final meter readings before leaving and note them down.
- Leave keys & instructions: If selling, leave spare keys, appliance manuals, or useful notes for the new owners.
- Stay calm & hydrated: Moving day can be long — keep water and snacks available for yourself and the team.
