What specific packing and unpacking services are available?
The company offers a 'platinum package' for full packing services where all materials like boxes and bubble wrap are included in the price.

Additionally, they offer an unpacking service that includes reassembling furniture and organizing clothes into wardrobes.
Where is the storage facility located and what are its features?

How many people are on the removal team and how do they handle room placement?
The standard home removals team consists of a minimum of 2 men, though the number depends entirely on the size of the move. They ensure there are enough hands to complete the job in a timely fashion and aim to put items into the customer's room of choice if access is clear.
Are there any specific discounts available for certain groups?
The business offers a 10% discount exclusively to those currently serving in the military, leveraging Olly's background as a former British Army serviceman who served 8 years. They also provide a military discount as part of their competitive quoting structure.
How can a customer get a quote before booking a home visit?
Customers can book a 15-minute WhatsApp video call survey to assess their moving requirements before receiving a quote. This is a common method used to ensure the quote is properly provisioned without needing an immediate home visit.
What are the typical start times and what happens if the move date changes?
The usual start time for moves is between 0800 and 0900 am, depending on the circumstances of the move. If a completion date changes, any deposits already paid are lost and are not transferred to new dates.
What is the key waiting fee and when does it apply?
Waters Removals charges a key waiting fee of £20 per man per hour from 2pm onwards. This fee applies if the customer delays the completion of the move beyond the agreed time.
What insurance coverage is provided for belongings?
The company provides comprehensive goods in transit and public liability cover on every job. Customers can opt to increase the baseline cover for extra peace of mind, ensuring their belongings are protected throughout the journey.
What recent awards or rankings has the company achieved?
The business has ranked in Staffordshire's Three Best Rated Removals & Storage companies for three consecutive years: 2024, 2025, and 2026. This ranking is based on a detailed 50-point quality inspection covering all aspects of their business.
How are items protected during transit and what additional protections are offered?
The team uses wool removal blankets to cover all furniture while in transit and straps items into the vehicle railings to prevent movement. They also offer protective coverings for floors, sofas, and wall art as part of the quote.
What types of house clearances are offered and who do they partner with?
The company works with local charities, auction houses, and schools to offer part and full house clearances. They are fully licenced to handle these clearances as part of their service offerings.
