The man from Breton Déménageurs came
He quickly zoomed round the house and estimated our volume. He said they could move us out on 31st and move us in on 2nd November. (1st November is a bank holiday)
I said that would be OK (without consulting the family!) because we slept for 2 weeks on camp-beds when we first arrived in France. 2 nights will be no problem.
His price was actually slightly more than the British guy said, but the volume he worked out was twice what the British guy guessed. If we applied the Brits prices to the calculated volume the price would be doubled.
I signed on the dotted line there and then. We'll do all the packing and Bob's your uncle. They supply boxes, tape and sticky labels to indicate the room where things are to go (blue for kitchen etc.)
It'll work OK because we'll have a bit more time to get the house ready and work out where to put things.
So now I need to phone the British guy and let him know.
