Moving...
Does anyone know the approximate costs of removals companies?
Specifically I'm going to be moving stuff from a reasonably full mid-size 3 bedroom house approximately 100 miles. Like with storage firms, websites are bloody useless. They want to give me exact quotes, or send people out to asess my needs. All I want at this stage is a ballpark figure - I want to know if I'm talking about 250 quid or 2000 quid for this sort of thing in order to consider alternatives such as friends, family and van hire.

Plus, if you do get removers, I'd suggest getting insurance against cancellation or change of date. Firms who are members of the British Association of Removers will be able to offer you that option.
House buying can be a chancy business: you never know when there's going to be a last minute delay. Last time I moved the removal men were booked to turn up and start packing the day before completion. On the same day the solicitor phoned to say that we might not be able to proceed, because one of the vendors further down the chain couldn't be contacted.
