Contract
Sign the contract only when it meets your requirements. You are perfectly within your rights to insist on this, and thus, avoid being taken advantage of.
Check the items to be relocated

When changing home
Make sure the furniture removal coincides with the day you move into your new home. If you are moving outside your city of residence, take time to organize the trip, and have all necessary items at hand, including the keys to your new home. The majority of removal companies also offer storage facilities.
