Hi,

it has been a very interesting exercise with wildly different quotes.

When I turned down the initial quote I received of £11.6k, they did come back to me this morning with an offer of £8.3k. Attributed as they were able to identify a different partner at the Spanish end, which I felt was strange as I was led to believe they were door-to-door.

Anyway, today I was able to organise several new quotes, with five of them coming in very close to each other. I checked their star rating and reviews, and decided to go with a mid priced one.

Hopefully, I’ve done the right thing - but only time will tell I suppose.


if it had been five years ago, I would certainly have done what you have done. However, the arthritis now even I have it’s me from using a pen - hence the move to the sun!

Thank you very much for your information, it did help me and making my final decision.

Take care.

Hi

What was your final quote and for how many cubic metres?


we have our stuff in storage since August and are keen to get our stuff to Mojacar,  we probably have 150 cubic metres of stuff.

Hi Guys

we are moving to Mojacar in December, I posted a question on here two days ago, and had some very very helpful replies - I thank you very much for this.

We have just received a removal quote of £11,640.00.from Cambridgeshire to La Parata, which includes 3 weeks storage in the UK.

This is based on picking up the already packed goods from our home, storing it for three weeks in the UK, before bringing onto Mojacar. This does include two persons.

I have to say that I thought £11,640 was quite a lot when I’ve looked at other similar (although bit rough) quotes?

What do you guys think-does that sound expensive to you guys with experience?

Many thanks again for your help

Cheers. Brian 

I moved from U.K. to velez Rubio in July and used Algarve Removals. They gave a very good price and I was very satisfied with them. 

They put me in storage for a couple of months and then brought it out, including a motorbike 

The have vases in U.K. on the Algarve and also in Spain. Get a quote from them they are very comp

Impossible to comment about the price without the cubic metre or the size of the house .
