Friday and Saturdays when demand peaks—prices jump accordingly.

Usually a deposit upfront, with the rest paid after the job’s done.

Label all boxes, keep valuable/fragile items aside, confirm access/parking, and have kettle handy.

A typical house move takes 4–8 hours in one day for packing, loading, and unloading.

Early 20s for independence, or any age if it’s for a better quality of life.

Midweek (Wednesday or Sunday) beats busy Fridays and weekends every time.

July and August, traditionally—most families move then, so demand is highest.

€60+/hour for van-and-driver, or €1,000+ for full house moves in Ireland (house size, distance, services affect price).

Ask for “the best price,” mention competitive quotes, and see if non-peak days get you a deal.

For a 3-bed: about €1,700 on average, larger homes or extras can double this.
