i used a company called Kelly's to move me out to Germany, and they were brilliant.

I've just used Bishop's Move to move me back to England, and they were not as careful or thorough (although they sub-contracted out to Hammond's).

Both times they packed the lot into boxes, wrapping everything in paper or bubble wrap, and loaded the truck.

Goto any storage centre listed near you here:~ http://www.yell.com/ucs/UcsSearchAct...ERVICES&ooa=on

Buy loads of boxes, bubble wrap etc..... Get packing!!!

Get all ya mates round on the day, hire a 7.5t truck and away ya go.

I've done it loadsa times, its a strssful day - but at least with ya mates around you can have a laugh and their more likely to respect ya belongings more

Good luck lol
