By “pirates” we refer to unqualified practices, companies and persons who perform unauthorized removals for low prices BUT without any guarantees. They are uninsured and will not warn you of the risks. What happens if a box is lost or “disappears”, if a piece of furniture is damaged or if the agreed delivery dates and deadlines are not met?
If any problems show up, you’ll not be able to present a complaint because they are acting outside the law. Remember the saying “you get what you pay for”. If they’ve got a website or Facebook profile, verify its authenticity. Many post photographs of trucks that are not theirs and are mere intermediaries who get a commission without actually offering you a service.
Would you let anyone into your house? Would you leave your belongings in anyone’s hands? Choose professional companies that specialize in national and international removals and offer the best storage service.
