Free Financial Risk Guarantee

If you are planning to emigrate, it’s important that you are aware of the risks involved. 

For example, what if your removals company goes bust mid-move? If they have not provided a financial risk guarantee, you may lose your money. Worse still, if your goods happen to be in transit, you will also have to pay someone else to continue your removals –  assuming the goods can be recovered. 

So what should you do? 

First, it’s vital that you choose a company with British Association of Removers’ (BAR) overseas bonding. This financial bonding scheme is similar to the better-known ABTA protection for holidays, by making sure customers don’t suffer if their removals company goes into liquidation. 

There are more than 6,000 moving companies in the UK, but fewer than 100 offer this advance payment guarantee. Even companies who are members of the BAR may not be members of BAR’s overseas group. 

Robinsons is. By choosing a bonded company like Robinsons, you can ensure that your payments are protected. With Robinsons you are entitled to a free financial risk guarantee that covers you for any advance payments you make. It also guarantees that if a company goes under while your goods are in transit, arrangements will be made for the move to be completed at no extra cost.
