Questions

Question: please provide list of all items to be moved - shipping.options (16-09-2015)
Response: All my clothes, bags, shoes, one TV (being the biggest item, 80 cm diameter), other than that I have small kitchen appliances (kettle, toaster, juicer, some jars and about 5 pots and pans). All would be personal items, no furniture, but I do have lots of clothes, enough to fit in a double wardrobe and 2 big chests of drawers, plus my shoes, about 50 pairs and the towels, bedding etc.
Would you supply the boxes? How much would it cost?
Thank you!
Question: Hi,
We supply boxes, I believe 15 to 20 large boxes would be ok for this load.
Boxes are FREE.
Door to Door Delivery would cost : £690
Regards,
Sam - shipping.options (17-09-2015)
Response: Hi Sam, thank you.
Do you do this via your company, or give the jobs to another company?
Do you have any other charges?
How big are the boxes?
Could you supply bubble wrap for some fragile items?
Would you be able to help with any of the packing, like the fragile items?

Thank you!
Emilia
Question: Hi Erika, We do not sell to or use other providers to move your items, please look at feedback regards john. - uk-ireland (17-09-2015)
Response: Hi John,

Thank you, sorry I was in a meeting and could not respond earlier.
I have to tell you that I got several other quotes, not only on this website, and yours seem to be the most expensive one, can you advise what the difference might be between you and the others?

Also, are you charging anything else, or is this the final price, inclusive of anything else?
Are the boxes included in the pricing?

Thank you and I appreciate your response and patience.

Emilia
Question: Yes boxes are included in the quote, are price reflects the service we provide, your items are the only shipment that will be in my van , not threw in with a multitude of other stuff from other people, the choice is yours, if you do go for another quote make sure that there's no hidden charges.

Regards john. - uk-ireland (17-09-2015)
Response: Where are you based? How easy it will be for you to pick up from Chelmsford, and also if I would need some help packing the day before, would this be free of charge? What if I need less or more boxes? Though I do not think I will need more, as for one bed flat I would assume that 20 should be enough.
Thank you for all the information provided.
Question: Hi Emilia,
Goods will be collected by our driver, deliver by our partner company.
Please advise.
Regards,
Sam - shipping.options (17-09-2015)
Response: Hi Sam,

I am about to accept your bid, but before i do that, could you let me know how long it takes to get the stuff in Switzerland from Chelmsford?
And how big are the 20 big boxes? I think I will need 20, is that an issue?
Can I get the boxes delivered one week prior, so I have enough time to pack everything?
And any chance of getting some bubble wrap for my fragile items? :)
Do you have any charges other than the 690 GBP?

Thank you and sorry for all the questions.

Kind regards,
Emilia
Question: Erica will all due respect I think I will withdraw my bid as we seem to be going round in circles , good luck with your move, regards John. - uk-ireland (18-09-2015)
Response: Well, i was very close to accept your bid, but I also like to be informed when I take a service and have all the details.
Thank you for your responses so far and I wish you a nice day, there was no need to get offended for being asked normal questions.
I don't think I have offended you in any way, if I did I apologise, but honestly I am surprised at your reaction to normal questions.
Have a good day John and try to be less stressed, it would do you good.
PS: even if I signed my emails several times, you still get my name wrong...I should be the offended one, but I am not.
Keep happy!
With respect,
Emilia
Question: Not being stressed Emilia lol, it's the first time that your name has popped up on this i thought you were called Erika , I think that you are the one who needs to be less stressful lol, I think I answered more than enough questions on the previous replys, this has been going on for days now, hope you get sorted with your move, no hard feelings, John. - uk-ireland (18-09-2015)
Response: John, it was 2 days... Not that much, is it?
I am of course upset as you were my favourite!! Now i have to go with someone else, who I had less questions for, and that does not make me happy as I like when I get the quick response, like you did. And because of that I was prepared to go for the higher bid. And because of that I had more questions. :)
Shame you got frustrated with me being inquisitive.
But no hard feelings and no bad review, I liked you and will not be upset with you.
Have a nice week end John.

Emilia

Question: For so little 2 days of planning is a bit to much Emilia, like you said there's no furniture or heavy stuff just boxes, like i said i could of provided the boxes, more if needed lol, i could of arranged to help you pack if needed lol, the time frame of delivery was provided, the reason why my bid was the highest was provided lol, so you can understand were im coming from.

Just one thing make sure there is no hidden charges with other providers and go with someone who does not sell your items on to another delivery company. John - uk-ireland (18-09-2015)
Response: Thank you.
I asked the site to ask you if you want to do the job.
If you don't mind, I still want to go with you.

Thank you,

Emilia
Question: Hi Emilia,
Yes can supply 20 boxes of same or different sizes,
this include bubble wrap / tap ( 2 brown and 1 Fragile Tap)
Please accept our bid.
I will email you size of boxes available to select.
our price include all charges, based on 450kg dead weight of all 20 boxes.
if weight exceed , you will be charged 0.98/kg
please advise. - shipping.options (18-09-2015)
Response: Thank you very much for your swift reply, I will accept your bid and we can discuss the details later.
I would imagine 450 KG should be enough for no furniture.
Question: Thanks,
