Our Accreditations
Our Removal Crews Are Fully Vetted And Trained
The NGRS requires that all staff – especially those directly involved in packing, loading/unloading and driving – must complete certified training programs. These cover critical areas like safe manual handling, security protocols and handling valuable/delicate items. Crew members also undergo full background checks before being cleared to work in customer homes.
By mandating such thorough vetting and training measures, the NGRS upholds the most professional service standards across its membership base. So when you book with Straight
Straight There Removals – you’re guaranteed to have fully qualified removal teams handling your possessions at every stage.
We’re Fully Insured For Your Protection
To become NGRS-registered, removal firms must take out extensive transit and storage insurance policies. This protects customers against accidental damage, loss or theft at all stages – during packing, in transit and while goods are in storage facilities.
Straight There Removals maintains comprehensive cover that exceeds basic NGRS requirements. On domestic moves, goods in transit are covered up to £50,000; for European/international shipments, this rises to £100,000. Additional coverage options are also available for items of especially high value like antiques or fine art.
