I imagine it will sell very quickly as houses don't hang around long around here.

I'm looking for some rough idea of what removals and storage may cost.
I have a small three bed house and it's not exactly rammed with stuff.

We would need to get all the stuff out and stored for, I imagine three to four months.
Any idea what sort of costs I might expect?
I realise I need to actually speak to some companies but wondered if anyone here may have been in a similar situation recently?
Hi Phil, I had a thought
When the removals man comes round to do an assessment and he gives you a quote, ask him if he can do the lowest price, a private job not going through the company books with you having to pay the VAT, etcetera.
