What are the biggest risks people overlook when booking a house removal company?

Is this yet another otter? Surely no serious GNer would just put an ad in an OP?

Oh I think is advertising.

I think is useful, putting everything you need straightaway in boxes or bags marked with a big neon coloured cross or with coloured ribbon tied to it.
As well as coffee/tea and kettle etc., would advise all bedding is in duvet covers with pillows in cases and fresh sheets as well as PJs in big bin bags and toiletries with toothbrushes etc., can be taken in the car.

Kettle, tea bags and milk

When our DD and SiL moved a person from the removal company came to see how much they had, as did another rep from a removal company. The movers they chose had thick blanket style wrappings to put round the telly and other large breakables. They got boxes off Amazon and on my advice wrapped breakables in excess birthday/xmas wrapping paper, nobody has newspapers these days. Is also worth alerting new neighbours to your arrival and that of a large lorry or vans so that they can organise their parking if they park on the street or the lorry/vans might need to temporarily block their drive.
