Advice
Organizing your move
1. We recommend that you supply us with a list of your belongings, in order for
us to better carry out the removal.
2. Advise us in advance of breakable or fragile items (such as mirrors, art pieces,
glasses, etc.) – they require special handling and attention.
3. Choose the most suitable route for our vehicles, preferably one with wider streets
and better pavement.
4. Reserve a parking spot as close as possible to the address where the removal
will take place.
5. Make sure the elevator works.
Dismantling and packing tips
1. Do not fill the boxes and sacks in such a way, which makes them too heavy – that
adds to the difficulty of moving them, and it poses a threat to the security of
your items.
2. Use heavy-duty reinforced sacks.
3. Label all boxes – their content and the rooms they need to be placed in.
4. Empty all drawers and cabinets.
5. Dismantle shelves and glass-cases. Tape the drawers and cabinet doors.
Select a removal company
1. Beware of “phantom” removal companies – want-to-be “students” in their fifties,
scruffy looking blokes that show up at your doorstep offering bottom-low price and
ultimately delivering bottom - low quality of service. What you end up paying for
is broken or damaged belongings, possessions not being unloaded and placed indoors,
but rather left on the street in the elements of nature, no invoice for your money
or a fake one issued.
2. Under no circumstance should you accept an offer that doesn’t clearly state the
price and time for the service, one containing numerous conditions or dubious terms,
or an offer where issuing an invoice increases the price of the service by 10% -
a sure fraud indicator! All companies are obligated to issue an invoice for the
payment received, at no additional cost!
3. Do not trust people, who claim to be the one and only in any field – that is
never the case! Carefully consider the various possibilities and decide on whether
to pay a top price or a standard one for the Bulgarian market, for a job of equal
quality – make up your own mind and don’t let others decide for you.
4. Use common sense when dealing with people declaring they have no competition
or asserting you of everyone else’s incapability – they are trying to gain customers
by discrediting their competitors. And mentality far from the European! There are
at least ten removal companies operating professionally in Sofia and offering a
high quality service. Advertisements in newspapers like “24 Hours”, “Trud” and “Capital”
aren’t phony – they are placed by real companies.
