FAQs

Removals

Is my deposit refundable

If you postpone or cancel your move, we may retain some or all of your deposit according to how much notice is given. If you give us more than 10 working days before the removal was due to start then we would return your deposit in full. If you give us between 6 and 10 working days inclusive before the removal was due to start 50% of the deposit amount would be retained. If you give 5 or less working days before the removal was due to start 100% of the deposit amount would be retained.

"Working days" refer to the normal working week of Monday to Friday and excludes weekends and Public Holidays.

Do you charge a deposit

Yes - we charge a deposit for all moves at the time of booking. For hourly rate booking we charge a deposit equivalent to the minimum charge and any liability cover or for fixed price moves we charge a 50% deposit.

Do you need a Beard to work for Bearded Bros?

No! We have both bearded and unbearded employees!

Can I travel in the vehicle with you?

Unfortunately we are not insured to carry customers in the vehicle with us.

What should I do with my gas cylinders or flammable liquids?

Gas cylinders or flammable liquids cannot be transported on our vehicles so you would need to make an alternative arrangement for these items.

Can I make a provisional booking?

We cannot take provisional bookings. If working on a sale and purchase, we can only confirm a booking at the point of contracts having been exchanged. If you are moving between rental properties, we would require your date of access to your new property to be fully confirmed. We do take a deposit for all bookings - should you have to amend or cancel your booking, depending on the notice given you do run the risk of losing part of all of your deposit.

What areas do you cover?

We are based in Brighton but we work all over Sussex and cover the whole of the UK!

How much notice do you require?

We generally have approximately a two week lead time, however, we would advise trying to give us as much notice as you can. Where possible, we will always try to accommodate last minute bookings.

VAT is included in all quoted prices, unless stated otherwise.

Do you dismantle and re-assemble my furniture?

Yes! But we do ask that you make us aware of any items needing to be dismantled/reassembled at the point of booking in. Our team cannot reassemble an item that they have not dismantled in the first place.
