So what to do? There is a need for an exchange where customers can post their loads and vetted, customer oriented removal companies can make up grouped loads, and, find return loads as well.
Removal companies already get many enquiries for small loads and single items which they cannot economically satisfy - and these would be thrown in pot bringing strength to a student exchange.
Why students? - Because students need to travel long distances at (broadly) same time. They will also be interested in being flexible enough to achieve savings, and may even go extra mile to maximise savings.
It's a win/win situation in which removal companies can offer drastically lower prices and increase their profitability. In other words students can be attractive to good professionals in removal trade.
Note: We are probably not talking about large removal companies here - their structures and profiles are not suitable. We are talking about many professional family businesses.
