introduction 

Dear valued customer,

Can I move house during the Coronavirus pandemic?

Yes. The government has made it clear that people who wish to move home can continue to do so in all tiers, including during the national restrictions starting on the 5th of January 2021. This needs to be done safely and the process may be different to usual.

Bournes Moves is a British Association of Removers (BAR) registered member. This means services have been pre-vetted and inspected to reduce the risk of anything going wrong during your house move.

Building your dream house but have nowhere to store all your stuff during the process?

Using a removal company for storage during renovations or a house build is a great way to keep everything safe. 

It's no secret amongst estate agents that decluttered houses can help you sell a property. 

The moving process can be complicated, even more so when you're not moving directly to your new home and need to put your goods in temporary storage between house moves.

In amongst the other various administration tasks that need completing during a move, one of the most important is remembering who to inform of your new address when you move house.
