It is said that moving home is one of the most stressful things that we ever do, and if you have ever done it, you will know how true that is. In fact, the average person in the UK moves home every seven years, although there are still some people who are pensioners and live in the home that they were born in.

But, yes, moving is stressful. Apart from packing all your belongings and the physical process of transporting them and unloading them again at the other end, there are literally dozens, and often hundreds of other things to deal with. Just think of all the people you have to tell your new address for instance.

That’s not just family and friends, but credit card suppliers, your bank, HMRC, employer, National Insurance, local council, doctor, electoral roll, car insurance, telephone, TV licensing, Broadband – the list just goes on and on. There are also things that you need to cancel such as milk deliveries and papers, gym membership, and so on.

The Moving Process

Then there is the actual process of moving. Of course, there are plenty of removal companies around who will deal with everything for you, but your eyes may start to water when you get the quote! It’s at that point that many people now decide to carry out the actual removal by themselves. After all, in most cases you can call on family and friends to give a hand with loading and unloading a van. Then all you need is the van.

This is why so many people now choose the moving house lorry hire that we provide at TG Commercials Self Drive. We have vans that you can use for house removals in all sorts of different sizes, so you can select the one that is perfect for the amount of goods that you need to move. Not too big and not too small, so in effect all you pay for is the amount of space you need.

We are based in Rotherham, so we are easy to get to from all over the Northeast of England and the Midlands. You can drive to our depot, park up, and leave in the van of your choice.

You can also hire it for as long or as short a time as you need. Our moving house lorry hire will save you a lot of money at a time when it is best to keep costs to a minimum.
