When planning an international or even a domestic move, one of the most important first steps is the pre-move survey. This is when we determine exactly how many pieces of furniture, boxes, and special items need to be transported, as well as what packing materials and logistical solutions will be required. A proper survey ensures that your moving cost is fair and transparent, and that the process runs smoothly from the very beginning.
In recent years, new digital solutions have also appeared in the moving industry – one of the most popular being the video survey, or online pre-move survey.
How does a video survey work?
With a video survey, there is no need to meet in person – everything takes place via a video call. The process is simple, quick, and convenient:
-
Scheduling an appointment – together we agree on a date and time that fits your schedule.
-
Downloading the app – we provide the necessary application, you only need to install it on your smartphone or tablet.
-
Virtual walk-through – at the agreed time, we start the video call, and you walk us through your home, showing the rooms, furniture, and items to be moved.
-
Questions and notes – our consultant will ask questions, take notes, and record all the necessary details.
-
A recording is made – the survey is recorded, which provides extra security. It can be reviewed afterwards, ensuring that nothing is missed or misunderstood – giving peace of mind to both you and us.
Why is a video survey beneficial for you?
-
Time-saving – no need to wait for an in-person visit; the survey can be done online at the agreed time.
-
Convenient – it can be carried out from the comfort of your home, or even if you are abroad.
-
Fast quotation – shortly after the survey, we prepare your tailored moving quotation.
-
Secure – thanks to the recording, all details can be double-checked.
-
Flexible – the appointment is arranged according to your schedule.
When is an on-site survey recommended?
Although the video survey is convenient and increasingly popular, there are cases when a physical, on-site survey may be more suitable:
-
if you live in a large house with many rooms and pieces of furniture,
-
if you have particularly valuable or fragile items that require special handling (such as artwork, musical instruments, or a wine cellar),
-
if you would like to discuss the packing, transportation, or storage options in detail with our consultant in person.
Both methods serve the same purpose: to accurately assess your move, so you receive a clear quotation and we can prepare for every detail in advance.
Conclusion
The video survey is a modern, safe, and convenient solution that saves time and fits flexibly into your lifestyle. With the recording, the process becomes transparent, verifiable, and reassuring for both parties.
Whether you choose the quick and practical video survey or the traditional on-site survey, Euromove’s mission remains the same:
-
accurate assessment,
-
safe moving,
-
complete peace of mind for you.
