We may collect personal data in the following ways:
Directly from you when you request a quote, make a booking, contact us with an enquiry, provide feedback, or otherwise communicate with us.
Indirectly from third party partners or platforms where you have submitted an enquiry about removal services that is then shared with us in order to respond to your request.
Automatically through basic analytics tools when you interact with any forms or online content we operate, subject to applicable cookie or tracking rules.
We process personal data only where we have a valid lawful basis under data protection laws. Depending on the context, we rely on the following lawful bases:
Contract: We process personal data to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, and to perform our contract with you. This includes providing quotations, confirming bookings, planning and carrying out removals, and managing your account.
Legal obligation: We may process certain information where necessary to comply with legal and regulatory requirements, such as record keeping, tax and accounting rules, and responding to lawful requests from public authorities.
Legitimate interests: We may process personal data where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests and these interests are not overridden by your rights. This may include managing and improving our services, handling queries or complaints, and protecting our business from fraud or misuse.
Consent: In limited cases we may rely on your consent, for example for certain types of optional communications. Where we rely on consent, you have the right to withdraw it at any time.
We use the personal data we collect for the following purposes:
To provide and manage removal and related services, including handling enquiries, preparing and sending quotations, organising logistics, performing moving services, and following up on work completed.
To communicate with you about your enquiry or booking, including confirmations, updates about your move, and responses to your questions or requests.
To manage payments and billing, including issuing invoices, processing payments through payment processors, and handling any payment-related queries or disputes.
To improve and develop our services, including monitoring performance, reviewing customer feedback, and enhancing the efficiency and safety of our operations.
To comply with legal and regulatory obligations, including record retention, tax and accounting requirements, and responding to lawful requests from public authorities.
To protect our legitimate interests, including fraud prevention, ensuring the security of our systems and personnel, and defending legal claims.
We may share your personal data with trusted third parties where necessary for the operation of our services or as required by law. These organisations act either as independent controllers or as processors on our behalf.
Examples of data sharing include:
Service providers and subcontractors who assist us with carrying out removals, storage or specialist services. They will only receive the information necessary to perform their functions.
Payment processors who handle payments and refunds on our behalf. These providers process your payment information securely and in accordance with applicable regulations.
Professional advisers such as accountants, insurers or legal advisers where necessary to manage our business, comply with our legal obligations, or handle disputes.
Public authorities and regulators where required by law, court order or other legal process, or where necessary to protect our rights, property or safety.
Where we use third parties as processors, they are required to process personal data only in accordance with our instructions, to keep it secure, and to comply with applicable data protection laws.
Where we transfer personal data outside the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, we will do so only where appropriate safeguards are in place, such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses, to ensure that your data is protected to a level essentially equivalent to UK standards.
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
In general, we will retain:
Enquiry and quotation records for a period allowing us to respond to your request and maintain basic business records.
Contract and service records, including move details, invoices and related documents, for the duration of our relationship and for a subsequent period required by tax, accounting and limitation laws.
Communication and complaint records for a period necessary to manage and resolve any issues, and to demonstrate how we have handled them.
When personal data is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymise it.
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction or damage. These measures include limiting access to personal data to those who need it to perform their duties, using secure methods to store and transmit information, and regularly reviewing our security procedures.
While we take reasonable steps to safeguard your personal data, no system can be completely secure. You should also take care in how you share your personal information with us, particularly when using public networks or devices.
