Following best practice during the Covid-19 situation
The working environment already looks different for most of us in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic and, it’s likely this will continue for some time. So it’s wise to keep abreast of ongoing developments and to take direction from reliable sources such as Public Health England, the NHS, the World Health Organisation and the UK Government.
Your organisation – or the organisation you are working on behalf of – will almost certainly already have Covid-19 measures in place that include an assessment of the workplace environment and suitable precautions to keep employees, visitors and contractors safe.

Our Risk Assessment has been fully updated and is reviewed regularly to help us manage the risks of Covid-19. Our staff are carefully trained on the safe methods of work. We also adhere to the ‘Removals Activities Under Covid-19 Conditions Guidance’, a document that has been put together and endorsed by professional bodies in the housing sector including The British Association of Removers, National Association of Estate Agents/Propertymark and the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.

We would highly recommend using fogging in addition to hand disinfecting high-frequency touchpoints such as door handles and stair rails. We can quickly, efficiently and safely sanitise all items within large indoor areas before and after each shift, minimising the risks of contamination from COVID-19. We also offer this as a quick and cost-effective stand-alone service.
Each morning the staff answer screening questions relevant to Covid-19 symptoms and check their temperatures before leaving home and send the results into the office where the data is safely recorded’. Once on site the foremen check the temperatures of each member of the crew while carrying out their pre-move safety inspections.
We provide our staff with masks, gloves and safety glasses (along with their other PPE). They each have their own hand sanitiser along with sanitiser wipes for surfaces that they touch whilst working. They change their gloves regularly throughout each shift.
Our staff receive ongoing training to ensure that they know how to keep themselves and our clients safe.
Yes, absolutely. This can be completed with a physical visit to the site, maintaining social distancing. We will also ask you to complete a screening questionnaire. We can also ‘Virtually’ visit the site via video call on almost any platform. This is often quicker, and due to the experience of our surveyors, this doesn’t impact the move. We can also do a contactless move. Please contact us for more information.
