Moving home can be an expensive endeavor. 

After dealing with the financial strain of stamp duty fees, solicitor fees, and agent fees, it’s understandable why you might be tempted to cut corners when it comes to hiring a professional removal company. However, the cost of a damaged back can far outweigh any immediate savings.

Did you know that around 80% of adults experience low back pain at some point in their lives? Back pain is a leading cause of long-term sickness absence, making up about 22% of such cases in the UK. In England alone, there are approximately 1.5 million GP consultations and 500,000 hospital admissions related to back pain each year. It’s the most common cause of job-related disability and a major reason for missed work days.

At Premier Movers, our crews are highly trained in all aspects of the removal process. This includes the best practices for loading boxes and, crucially, the correct lifting and carrying techniques for all household items to minimize the risk of injury and damage to your belongings. As a BAR (British Association of Removers) certified company, we adhere to the highest industry standards to ensure a safe and efficient move.

If you’re considering taking a day or more off work to wrap, pack, lift, and carry all of your possessions into a rented van, then driving to your new home in an unfamiliar large vehicle, and repeating the process in reverse upon arrival, think twice. Consider the potential impact on your back and overall health.

Instead, get a quote from Premier Movers. While it might cost a bit more upfront, it’s a small price to pay to avoid a potentially permanent back injury. Investing in professional movers like us can save you from long-term health issues and ensure a smoother, safer moving experience. Choose Premier Movers for a stress-free and secure move.
