Modern Slavery Statement for Removal Services and Removals Operations

Company logo overlaid on removal truck representing anti-slavery commitment Our organization is committed to operating a transparent and ethical removal service that actively prevents modern slavery, human trafficking and forced labour in every facet of our moving services and relocation solutions. This Modern Slavery Statement explains how our removal company identifies risks, enforces a zero-tolerance policy, and maintains robust controls across both residential and commercial removal services.

We take a firm stance: zero tolerance for any form of exploitation. Our removal service operations require that all staff, contractors and third-party partners respect human rights and adhere to labour standards. We communicate this expectation through contracts, staff training and visible leadership statements that reinforce our commitment to ethical removals and relocation services.

A family of four, including a man, woman, young girl, and young boy, standing outside a residential building on a driveway or garden area, each holding cardboard boxes used for packing belongings during a house move. The man and woman are smiling, with the woman holding a large box close to her chest, while the children carry smaller boxes. The background features a brick house with a black garage door and a slightly blurred green lawn. The scene is set in natural daylight, suggesting daytime, with a casual atmosphere typical of a home relocation in the UK. The children, dressed in casual clothing, appear happy, indicating a positive moving experience. The presence of packed boxes and the residential setting connect the image to house removal services, with a subtle emphasis on family relocation needs in the local area near town or postcode region. This photograph effectively illustrates household packing and family participation in a residential move, relevant to removals service providers like Removal Services. To manage risk across our supply chain, we carry out targeted due diligence and supplier audits. These audits inspect labour practices, working conditions and documentation for drivers, loaders and subcontracted crews used in house removals, office relocations and specialized transport. Our supplier assessment process evaluates compliance, remediation capability and continual improvement for all vendors engaged in removal services.

Supplier Audits, Policies and Training

Three removal service workers, dressed in blue uniforms, are positioned around a white moving truck with a partially red and white exterior, parked on a driveway near a residential building. They are handling several large cardboard boxes of various sizes, some stacked on the ground and others being carried by the workers. One of the workers on the left is lifting a small box wrapped in blue packaging, while the worker in the middle is holding a medium-sized box, and the one on the right is carrying a larger rectangular box. The scene is set outdoors in a suburban area, with a paved driveway, greenery and trees in the background, and an adjacent brick house with a pathway and a garage door visible. Bright, natural lighting illuminates the scene, emphasizing the process of loading or unloading household items during a house removal or relocation, indicative of professional removals services near a UK town or postcode area. The background suggests a typical residential neighbourhood environment, suitable for house removals in the region. We operate a structured audit schedule for suppliers of packing materials, vehicle hire and ancillary moving services. Audits include site visits, record reviews and interviews. Where issues are identified we require corrective action plans and follow-up verification to ensure sustainable remediation. Our procurement criteria favour suppliers with clear anti-slavery policies, legitimate payroll systems and verifiable worker protections.

Our policies are reinforced through regular training for managers and crew members. Training modules cover recognition of exploitation indicators, appropriate reporting pathways, and the obligations of our removal company under applicable laws. We maintain a whistleblowing-friendly environment and provide anonymous reporting channels so concerns can be raised without fear of reprisal.

We view continuous improvement as critical. Our supply chain oversight uses a risk-based approach aligned to geographies, subcontractor types and labour intensity. High-risk partners receive enhanced scrutiny, including unannounced audits and documentary verification of worker contracts and hours.

Reporting Channels, Remediation and Annual Review

A room with white walls and a light wooden floor, filled with several cardboard boxes of varying sizes stacked on a small wooden pallet, ready for moving. The boxes are sealed with packing tape and appear to contain household items. On the right side of the image, there is an open window with dark blinds partially pulled up, allowing natural light to illuminate the space. Below the window, a white radiator is mounted on the wall. The overall scene suggests a house relocation process, typical of removals services in the vicinity of [POSTCODE] or [TOWN], with an emphasis on professional packing and moving preparations, as facilitated by Removal Services. The environment is tidy and organized, indicating either the beginning or end of a residential move, with no additional furniture or personal items visible in this part of the house. To ensure issues are identified and addressed promptly we maintain multiple reporting channels. Staff and third parties can report concerns through internal grievance mechanisms, secure hotline procedures and direct escalation to compliance leadership. Reports are investigated impartially and confidentially, and we document outcomes and corrective measures to prevent recurrence.

A man and a woman engaged in house moving preparations inside a bright, well-lit room with large windows. The woman, standing on the left, has long blonde hair, is smiling, and is dressed in a white top and grey pants. In front of her are several unpacked cardboard boxes, some stacked, with a green potted plant placed on top of an open box. To her right, the man, wearing a white shirt and light-colored trousers, is smiling and holding a picture frame, possibly preparing to pack or move it. Additional empty picture frames are visible resting on the boxes, ready for transport. The room has a light green wall with a decorative wall-mounted lantern, and the large windows reveal a snowy scene outside, suggesting a residential property in a town or suburban area. The scene depicts typical house removals activity focused on packing and moving household items, with no other furniture or personal belongings visible. Our remediation approach centers on the welfare of affected individuals. When exploitation is found, we take immediate steps to secure safety, restore rights, and apply disciplinary or contractual actions against responsible parties. Remediation may include liaising with authorities, assisting with access to medical or social services and ensuring workers receive due wages.

We publish an annual review of our modern slavery programme and update this statement to reflect evolving risks, audit findings and policy enhancements. The review assesses the effectiveness of our zero-tolerance policy, supplier audits, reporting channels and remedial actions, and sets measurable objectives for the coming year to strengthen prevention across all removal service activities.

Key commitments include:

  • Maintaining a zero-tolerance policy across all tiers of the removal supply chain.
  • Conducting routine and risk-based supplier audits for removals and moving services.
  • Providing multiple, secure reporting channels and protecting whistleblowers.
  • Performing an annual review to measure progress and update controls.

We are resolute that ethical practice and respect for human dignity are non-negotiable in every removal service, relocation project and transport solution we provide. This statement is an affirmation of our ongoing work to eradicate modern slavery from our operations and to promote responsible business conduct throughout the removals sector.
