Good stuff. I think I have arranged for 3 of our Eastern European friends and a van to move our stuff. Couldn't actually believe just how many were advertising from Bridgwater - The hub of the Eastern European Exodus in the West Country?

I would not trust any couple of guys to move house. They could make a note of what you have and then burgle next week

I paid them double what we agreed cos they worked seriously ******* hard until 10pm on a Friday, and it was still a bargain.
Worth a punt I think.

I've used them a few times, check the van is going to be big enough.

Temp labour sites.
Any ideas how to get help in?
I have just been called about completion on our house sale. I was expecting to move on Monday next week, then fook off for a few weeks on hols. I have just been called to ask if I can complete on the 1st. I can, of course, but ringing around removals peeps suggest no one is available, and the one we have booked for Monday can't change. Wifey has suggested we rent a van and do it ourselves, but I can't really lift tulip and carry it about, as my right knee is about as useful as MF's penis. Are there places you can call for temporary labour? A quick google suggests no, but there must be some kind of places that do this, they kept me through uni second time around.
Offering £15 per hour is anyone is benched and wants a quick few quid.
Oh, and the reason it would be beneficial, is new owner says he'll pay us extra moving costs, and it means I can get away without paying mortgage for August.Tags: None
