Freezer contents - how do we do this?
Answer: if you are moving locally (one day move) you can leave the contents in the baskets, please bag any loose item. The freezer will be loaded as one of the last items. The crew will remove the baskets and or bags put the freezer on to the van and then put the food back inside it. Normal on a local move the delivery will take place within an hour or two. Once the freezer is in situ at the new property give it an hour or two for the gasses to settle and then you can turn the power on. For long distance moves you are advised to use up any frozen food defrost the freezer at least a couple days before the move and dry out any defrosted water. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.

Dear Mark You recently collected 58 boxes from us after our move from Sussex. We had been assured by Britannia Beckwith that we should receive a refund for the returned boxes. Is this correct and how does this work? Many thanks Chris Child EX31 4QE
Answer: Good afternoon Mr Child. As we didn’t carry out your removal we are doing this as a favor to Britannia Beckwiths. If you had moved with any other company other than a Britannia member we would have declined to collect them. The cost to collect the boxes, labour van & fuel, 63 miles away, would be equal or even more than the value of the 58 used boxes we collected. For these reasons I am unable to buy the boxes from you. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.
Do you buy back packing boxes if they are returned to you in good condition?
Answer: Sorry we don't by back used boxes regards Mark Lane

if taking abroad only the amount that would fit in a transit box van what size container would I need
Answer: Sorry for the delay in this response we had a bit of an IT glitch. If you are moving furniture and effects overseas to the volume equal to a transit box van you are on the edge of having it shipped in a 20ft container by itself, about half a container, or having it sent as a groupage consignment. Because we are part of the Britannia Group we can get quotes on both options for you. Thank you for your question and apologies for the delay once again regards Mark Lane.

Can someone please contact me to provide quote. Thanks

does quote include garage and shed items
Answer: I see that you have used our removal price calculator to get a guide price. Your guide price is for a moving a 3 bed property between 201 miles and 250 miles. Cornwall to Wiltshire. There was 4 guide prices given based on different amounts of items to be moved. For a small quantity of items £966.00 med amount of items £1317.00 a large amount of items £1474.00 and an extra large amount of items £16252.00. The small quantity would probably be for 1 person moving with a lot of fitted furniture not going and no outside effects. The extra large would probably be for a family of 5 including 3 children in their late teens with lots of stuff. Also they would probably have a double garage full, contents from a shed, a conservatory and maybe a separate office. So you can see both moves are from a 3 bedroom property moving the same distance but will be completely different in the size and complexity. We offer a guide price without asking you having to enter a lot of information and then it is up to you to decide which one of the 4 sizes is appropriate for you. To get a fixed quotation we need to arrange a surveyor to visit you to discuss you move in more detail, take an inventory of the items to be moved and then a quotation will be given to you based upon the total volume to be moved. To arrange a surveyor to call please call Sarah on 01872 560147 or send her an email sarah.lane@britannialanes.co.uk I hope this is of help and thank you for your question. Regards Mark Lane.
On a standard move how many packing boxes are included in the price

To just ask me how many I want without giving me a size is just counterproductive. I will try elsewhere if you do not need the business.i requested the details from 01872470089
Answer: I am sorry if you didn’t get the service you should expect of us. We do have two new members on our team now as two previous employees have just retired and they jointly had 35 years of experience. Our new team are going through training and gaining product knowledge, but may have floundered a bit on this occasion, although the only way they are going to learn is to get on the phones. If I can help you with choosing the correct size and type of box please call me on 01872 560147 regards Mark Lane.

My quote has come up at £661.50 to move from Modbury to Plymouth 15 miles - when I moved from London to Modbury 250 miles I paid £500. I'm assuming there's a mistake?
Answer: If you have used our removal price calculator it will give you a guide price with a lower and higher figure. Regards what you paid when you moved from London to Plymouth it is difficult for me to comment without any of the facts other than to say occasionally a removal company can offer a very completive rate if they are already in London looking for a return load. I hope this is of help regards Mark Lane.

what items can go in storage
Answer: I guess that it is easier to say what cannot go into storage. Items that are perishable such as food stuffs, flammable items such as petrol, white spirt, contraband, livestock, fire arms, items that give off odours. We would also suggest that items of high value such money jewellery stamp and coin collections and bonds are not stored with us. They are not excluded but you cannot get insurance on these items. If you need any further information please call Paul our self storage manager on 01872 561847 or his email address is paul.titheradge@britannialanes.co.uk Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.

We are in the early stages of selling our house in South London and buying a property at Heybrook Bay, near Plymouth. The access road to the new property is private, no through and not particularly wide (probably room for one car with some on road parking spaces, one opposite the house). The drive of the house has room for at least two to three cars. How would you organise such a move? Would it be possible to transport our contents to Devon and then reload into smaller vans? I assume you know Devon well and would be able to assess the situation. Your answer would help us plan our move which might take place towards the end of October. Many thanks. Edward
Answer: Good afternoon Edward I will send you a separate email with a service specification and inventory forms. We are in the London area every week looking for return loads to the Plymouth area. As we have already taken a customer from Plymouth or Cornwall to the London area we will be able to offer you a return load price based on loading on a Wednesday for delivery Thursday or to load Thursday for delivery Friday. The saving to you will be in the area of £500 to £600 against a move at the beginning of the week. Something for you to discuss with your solicitor when arranging a completion date. Regards the restricted access at delivery you are correct in that we would use a small van to carry out a shuttle service. One of our surveyors can check this before your move.

could I have an rough estimate of cost for a full pack of 65 cubic meters, for a local removal in Truro
Answer: Hi, I see that you have used our removal price calculator which will have given you a guide price. On larger moves 65cm and over, which are moving locally less than 10 miles, the timings are very important and can impact on the cost of your move. If you have access to both properties at the same time (normally if one or both of the properties are rented) we can use a couple of crews with two small/medium size vans and move one room at a time, sometimes this means the move can be completed in one day. If you do not have access to both properties on the same day (all day) we can load 80% onto a large van with a shuttle van if required, and then on day two we can load the remainder in the morning and carry out the delivery in the afternoon. I hope this is of help. When my surveyors carry out the pre-move survey for you they will discuss in more detail. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.

Can you take a sofa from Okehampton to St Lo Normandy and if so how much. My mail is j.f.barker@ btinternet.com
Answer: Hi thank you for your enquiry. One of our vehicles arrived in Caen this morning 22/02/15 which is a shame as this would have been ideal for a part load delivery to St Lo Normandy. The reason we have used the Portsmouth Caen ferry was that Britany Ferries cancelled the Plymouth - Roscoff ferry for last Sunday due to technical problems. Our price if we could have included it on this journey would have been £240.00 inc vat. If you would like to send me an email I will check with the other depots to see if they have any French trips going via Caen or St Marlo. Regards Mark Lane mark.lane@britannialanes.co.uk
Hi, I need to move the contents of a 20ft container (house move goods) - what size of Luton do you think would be best to hire?
Answer: A 20ft container will have a total volume of 1140cuft. A 7.5 ton box van will have a volume of approximately 1000cuft To be able to hire a 7.5 ton vehicle you must have held a full UK drivers licence (category C) prior to 1997 or hold a valid LGV licence, for further information contact the relevant branch. A luton Transit van has a volume of 550cuft. To drive this van drivers must be between 25 and 75 years of age and able to produce a full, valid, UK driving licence held for at least twelve months. If your move is local and you can do a two or more trips the smaller van is a little cheaper. On our website www.lanesselfdrive.com under “our vehicles” there are full dimensions and pay loads on each of the vans we offer for hire. If you are filling a van to its capacity just watch out you don't overload the axels weights or total payloads. It is better to make an additional trip. If you are concerned there are public weigh bridges you can use. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.

Are there items you do not carry eg gas?
Answer: Yes you are correct in that we can’t carry combustible items such as gas, petrol, white spirit etc. Also the insurers will not cover items damaged by fluids, so we prefer not to carry tins of paint or wood preservatives and of course we can’t carry livestock/pets. Within a normal household move that pretty much covers it. Our surveyors will look to identify any items that we can’t carry during the course of the pre move survey. I hope this is of help, regards Mark Lane.

Dear team I would be grateful if you could give me a quote for moving and storing (for say one year while she decides which items she will need here) the very limited furniture of a lady of 90 who lives in Lancaster in a Care Home and is planning to relocate to Exeter this month. Her furniture is all in one room and comprises a bed, two wardrobes, a high and a low chest of drawers, a book case, a bedside table, four occasional tables, a reclining chair, a Lloyd loom chair, a TV, a lampstand, two mirrors, three pictures and a few ornaments/vases. Of these I imagine the bed, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers and say two of the tables will need to go into storage as I am sure she will want to use the other items in her new room. Many thanks for your help. Yours sincerely Mary
Answer: Thank you for your enquiry. We have 3 vehicles in the Lancashire area in September and could therefore bring the consignment back to Exeter with a split delivery to the new property and some items going into store. I will email a quote to you this morning. Regards Mark Lane.

Do you charge mileage
Answer: If you have asked for a removal quotation I would then say in most cases mileage is taken into account when calculating the cost of the fuel that will be used to carry out your removal. The exception is when we offer a second load service for a long distance moves. As we are moving two consignments on the same vehicle and that the customer opting for the second load may not get delivery on the second day they will they will benefit from a cheaper move as the majority of the travelling cost is covered by the primary move. For van hire you get one hundred miles free with every day booked. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.

If you said that you would be carrying out the packing we would not have included the cost of the materials unless you asked us to at the time of the pre-move survey or in the case of a self-inventory that you wrote please include in your quote to supply x number of boxes. After saying all of this when you are at the point of booking I would ask “If I make a booking with you can you give me 10 / 15 free boxes”. I expect as long as you collect them the answer would be yes. Thank you for your question, sorry for the delay in our response we have had a IT glitch, regards Mark Lane.

Nature of insurance cover
Answer: We offer many different insurance covers to cover your household effects whilst in transit or storage. We will explain the relevant insurance covers to you and it is then for you to choose which one is the most suitable. In many cases for transit and storage insurance in the uk there maybe only one cover we can offer. The current rate for goods in transit UK is £2.41 per £1000 of value and for storage insurance the cost is £0.48 per £1000 of value per week. For insurance cover for overseas moves we can normally offer to you four levels of cover. A restricted policy. A full replacement policy with and without an excess and a policy that covers pairs and sets, mechanical derangement and consequential loss. In all cases the contract for the insurance polices are with the Insurance company and not with us as the removal company. It is important for you to declare a full and true value of the effects to be covered in case of total loss. You do not need to purchase an insurance policy from us you can look to get a cover from other insurance providers. If you look to do this we will carry out your removal as per our Terms and Conditions, please see section 8 regards loss or damage. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.

All of our storage facilities except Bristol have full goods lifts to get you effects easily to the room you have chosen. Bristol offer a drive-up storage facility, so not needing a lift. You can reserve any room online for just £20.00. Alternatively if you are looking at a Removal and Storage solution the cost of a 250cuft container will cost you in the area of £13 - £15 week depending on how many you need and the storage period. Thank you for your enquiry regards Mark Lane.
do you supply boxes, wrapping etc
Answer: At the time of your pre-move survey we would have asked you if you would like us to carry out the packing for you. If you requested this the cost will include the labour and the packing materials for us to complete the task. If you decided to carry out the packing yourselves we don't include a sum for packing materials in our quotations as many customers have access to boxes etc from work or other outlets. You can purchase various packing materials from us via our website or buy calling into one of our depots. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.
how much notice do you need
Answer: It really depends on the type of move you need i.e a small local move over one day would be easier to arrange at short notice than a large move with several vehicles over several days. This is the busiest time of year just as we are coming up to the children finishing school for the summer holidays. The best way forward is to get a quote as soon as you can, push your solicitor to agree with all parties a provisional date, so that you in turn can book a vehicle and removal crew. I hope this is of help and we look forward to speaking to you soon to arrange the premove survey. Regards Mark Lane.
how to make insurance claim
Answer: Please put in writing the details of your claim and send it to the office that carried out your move in accordance to the Insurance policy, regards Mark Lane.

hello could i hire a van to move my things back to dorset uk from empoli florence. how much would it be for approx weeks hire for a high based long wheel van

Could you deliver to a storage facility if needed ?
Answer: Yes we can deliver all or part of your effects to a storage facility chosen by yourselves. If you are looking at a self storage facility please advise us of what floor the unit is on and if above ground floor is there a lift available and the distance to carry the effects. If you require us to stack items please have available materials to put on polished surfaces as self storage companies don't supply covers/blankets. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.
Please give approx monthly cost of container storage (minimum of 6 months) for house contents of a four bedroom house, plus conservatory, plus two utility rooms, plus office.
Answer: The cost of container storage is in the area of £15 per container per week inc vat, although we apply discounts depending on the amount of containers needed and the length of time storage is required. If a customer wishes to pay 6 months in advance will apply a further 5% discount. I can see that you have a four bedroom property with an office and two utility rooms, depending on the amount of outside effects you have I would guess that you will need somewhere between 5 and 8 containers. The only way to know for sure is for one of my surveyor to visit you discuss your requirements, take an electronic inventory (leave a copy with you) and to give you a quote for the move into store, the weekly storage rate with any discounts and the out of store removal to the new property. Please call Sarah on 01872 560147 to arrange this. In the mean time we do have a removal and storage price calculator which will give you a guide price, there is a link from the home page. Thank you for your question regards Mark Lane.

Hi there We will be relocating to Brisbane in April and will be taking personal household goods and possibly our car. I would appreciate it if you could let me know if you can organize a 20ft container which would combine the shipping of the car in the same container as our goods? If so what would the approximate costs be for the transport to Brisbane from Bristol, UK? How long does a container take to arrive in Brisbane? If the car/goods combination is not possible could you let me know what my alternatives might be re the car and/or the personal goods. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best regards Kath
Answer: Hi KathThank you for your enquiry and we will be pleased to help you in the process of moving you effects and car to Brisbane. Moving a car to Brisbane is possible although the Australian Government apply a fair amount of red tape and import duties to discourage people emigrating to Australia form bring their cars with them. As I said it is possible but you will need to check what it is going to cost you on top of the shipping cost. Here is some information to start with but please check with the Australian Customs websites for the full and current information. Vehicles up to 30 years old 5% Duty + 10% Gst. The GST is levied on the ‘Customs Value’ + the Duty + the total Cost of Shipment to Australia figure.There is an additional tax and is levied at a rate of 33% on all vehicles, with a current GST inclusive value in excess of A$57,466 (figure set annually by the Australian Taxation Office). The other way of shipping a car to Australia is what is known as roll on roll off. This is where the car is taken to by you or us to the port where it is driven or lifted onto the ship and normally travels on the top deck. This is little cheaper but it is open to the elements and has a greater chance of damage. Timings door to door in a 20 or 40ft container will be about 8 to 10 weeks although you will have to collect the car from port / our agent. The cost of shipping will be in the area of £5,000 to £5500. I hope this is of help regards Mark Lane. For futher informatiom please call Angus on 01179 811220

As somebody wishing to move soon, I have done my "homework" and read all the literature I can, this has left my with one or two questions. Q1: The main site of Brittania International describes Brittania as the biggest Independant mover, what does the independant mean? Q2: A major feature appears to be the "Advance Payment Guarantee" are Brittania Franchises going bust or out of business so frequently that this is a major issue?
Answer: Q1/A Britannia Movers International is made up of 43 family owned and family run removal companies, we work together forming of a group similar to a corporative and not a franchise. There is only one Britannia member per county or designated area. Each of the members were invited to join the group because of their strengths in the removal and storage industry back up with a commitment for offering a quality service to its customers. Each member is a shareholder of Britannia Movers international. When looking at our company names you will see the brand name first "Britannia" followed by the family name of the removal company. In our case we are known as Britannia Lanes of Cornwall, Britannia Lanes of Devon, Britannia Lanes of Somerset & Britannia Lanes of Bristol. In South Wales the member is Britannia Robins in Manchester the member is Britannia Bradshaws etc etc. Each of the Britannia Lanes depots are run by one of Lanes family with their partners. At the Cornwall depot there are also two members of the third generation working in the business. For these reasons we are the biggest independent remover. Q2 The advance payment guarantee is in place to give our customers the confidence that there money is safe when using a Britannia member. The reason your money is safe is because we are 43 separate companies and likelihood of 43 companies going into administration at the same time is zero, which is the opposite of most nationals as they are normally one company having several braches. In the event of a Britannia member going into administration and a customer has paid for a move before the service takes place it would be in the best interest of the Britannia Movers International along with the rest of Britannia members to make sure that the move covered by another member or a full refund is given. Britannia Movers International have placed a sum of money in a separate account to be used in this situation. Thank you for your questions and we hope to here from you soon to arrange a quote for your move. In the mean time have you seen our removal price calculator there is a link from our home page. www.britannialanes.co.uk

Hi, I'd like to know how much it would be to rent the space for us to store most of the contents of our 3 bed house. There won't be loads of personal effects as we've stashed those in a relatives house, but still have the furniture from a 3 bed house. I'd like a rolling monthly price as we don't know how long we'll need the storage for, probably 3-6 months though. I'd prefer drive up storage assuming that is dry enough for sofas, mattresses etc to not get damp. Thanks Mike
Answer: Hi Mike thank you for your question. It is so difficult to give you a price as I will be guessing on the quantity but to try and help an 80sqft drive up unit per week will cost you about £35 and an internal unit i.e inside a building £32 per week. At this time of year I would suggest that you look for an internal unit especially if the period of storage is 3 - 6 months while the dirve up units are dry the door open direct to the elements and very time you open the door damp air can enter the unit. I hope this is of help, for further information please call Paul on 01872 561847.

Does this price include VAT and insurance please
Answer: On checking our systems I see that you have used our removal price guide/calculator, if this is the case the guide price includes vat but not insurance as this cost is based on the value of effects to be moved. The insurance cost is at the rate of £2.48 per £1000's of value i.e A value of £10,000 would cost £24.80. I see that you are looking for the items to go into self storage at destination, as well as the volume of effects to be moved the distance we would need to walk from the van to the self storage unit and or what floor and if there is a lift would have a baring on the cost of your move. If you require us to stack items of furniture or other items onto polished surfaces it is best that you supply some protective covers as self storage companies do not supply these items as part of the rental agreement. Please see our new packing materials web site, there is a link from the home page. We would be more than please to visit you and give a free quotation, to do this please call Sarah on 01872 560147.

Dear Sir I would like to thank you for the fantastic service I received from your staff at 821 Bath Rd, Bristol. I hired a high top van, via the internet, from the Bristol depot, to enable me to move house. When I arrived on Friday the 10th of August I was met by an extremely helpful gentleman who guided me through the process. Customer care is clearly at the forefront of this employees mind and dealing with him was an absolute pleasure. The van he had prepared for me was spotless inside and out, I don't just mean a wipe around with a damp cloth, this was showroom condition. It was obvious that this chap took a lot of pride in the vehicles he supplied and the service he provided. When I returned the van the process was just as painless and dealt with by different, and equally as helpful male employee. Based on the value for money, vehicle condition and customer care Britannia Lanes have given me I am recommending you to everyone I know. I look forward to dealing with you again in the near future. Kind regards S Henwood
Dear Mr Henwood. I would like to thank you for your time in writing a report on our website regarding the service you received at our Bristol depot when hiring a van from us. I have already congratulated Martin Blatchford for all of his efforts. I hope that you are now settled into your new home, regards Mark Lane.

Hi, Firstly my name is Joe Shrimpton and i would like to enquire about a sponsorship enquiry. I am heavily involved with motorsport and am currently competing in the Irish Citroen Racing Trophy and laying 3rd in the championship with only four points separating me from the leader. This is my first season rallying however i used to race in the RX150 buggies in the British Rallycross Championship where i finished 2nd last ear one point from winning the championship. I have been competing in the buggy this year and are currently 3rd in the championship, however i have pulled away from rallycross due to the fact i need to concentrate on my rallying more, by going testing and getting as much seat time as i can. I am currently mentored by Kris Meeke who drives for mini in the WRC, i am committed to the sport in and out off the car training in the gym at least three times a week. My future aim is to be in the IRC and WRC, i have been testing current WRC cars and have been offered drives for certain teams however i need to bring a budget to the table with me. This is my dream and this is what i hope to do in the future for a living, if i could do it every day i would. I am the kind off person who does not want to give up, i am up for the challenge !!. This is my first season in a rally car and next year i am hoping to compete in the French Championship, British Championship and selected IRC and WRC events. I am looking for a sponsorship partner for next year, this may interest you however i know you are already involved with motorsport but it may interest you. I have attached my 2010 profile to give you an insight off me and my career, however it is not up to date (it's from 2010) , so you can always log onto my website. Thankyou for taking your time to read this email. Please contact me at any time. Thankyou Joe Joe Shrimpton Write: joe@joeshrimptonmotorsport.co.uk Talk: 07748251226 See: joeshrimptonmotorsport.co.uk
Answer: Hi Joe having been involved in rallying for 25 years and my father in the 60,s was a semi pro driver for Rootes which became Talbot & entering the Monte Carlo (class winning see not below) RAC, Tulip Rally etc etc. I know only to well what a mammoth task you have ahead of you to raise enough sponsorship in these hard financial times. We are unable to help at this time but wish you the best in your rallying career/sponsorship raising. I look forward to seeing you on the front cover of Auto Sport some day soon. Notes: Silverthorne, Power and Appleby were all disqualified mid-rally for having seven lights on their cars rather than the regulation six. The other drivers were all disqualified post-rally for light infringements. www.teamdan.com/archive/www2/miscral/66miscra.html - Cached
