Complaints Procedure for Man and Van Colliers Wood
Man and Van Colliers Wood is committed to providing a reliable, professional and friendly removals and man and van service. We recognise that occasionally things may go wrong, and when they do, we want to know about it so we can put matters right and learn from the experience. This complaints procedure explains how you can raise a concern, how we will respond, and what you can expect from us at each stage.
Our Commitment to Customers
We aim to deliver removals and man and van services that are efficient, safe and respectful of your property and time. If you feel that we have not met these standards, we encourage you to tell us. We treat all complaints seriously, investigate them thoroughly and aim to resolve them as quickly as possible. We also use the information gathered from complaints to improve our planning, handling, loading, transport and customer communication processes.
What Is a Complaint
A complaint is any expression of dissatisfaction about our services, whether justified or not, that requires a response. This can include concerns about the quality of our removal work, staff conduct, punctuality, damage to goods or property, communication before or after the move, or how a previous concern was handled. You do not need to use specific wording or mention that you are making a complaint for it to be treated as one.
Raising a Complaint Informally
Where possible, we encourage you to raise any issue informally at the earliest opportunity. Often, concerns that arise on moving day or during collection and delivery can be resolved quickly by discussing them with the team on site or with our coordinator. We will always try to put things right immediately if we can, for example by adjusting how goods are loaded, protecting items more securely, clarifying a misunderstanding about the service, or revisiting an address if practical.
If the issue cannot be resolved on the spot or you remain unhappy with the outcome, you can proceed with a formal complaint as set out in the next section.
How to Make a Formal Complaint
You can make a formal complaint in writing. Please provide as much detail as possible so that we can fully understand what has happened and investigate properly. It is helpful if you include the following information:
The date of your move or booking, the locations involved in the service, a clear description of what went wrong, details of any damage or loss, and any steps already taken to try to resolve the issue. If you have supporting information such as photographs of damage, inventory lists, or written communications regarding the move, please make this clear in your complaint so that we can request them if needed.
We recommend that you make your complaint as soon as possible after the event, and within a reasonable period of time, especially if it relates to damage or loss. Timely complaints enable us to investigate more effectively.
What Happens After You Complain
Once we receive your formal complaint, we will acknowledge it and begin our investigation. Our typical process is as follows:
We review the details of your complaint, including any notes made by our staff on the day of the move. We may contact you to clarify points or request additional information. We will also speak to any team members involved in the service, review schedules, loading notes and, where applicable, any photographs or records taken at the time.
We aim to provide a full response once the investigation is complete. In this response, we will explain our understanding of the events, confirm whether your complaint is upheld in full or in part, and outline any actions we will take as a result. These actions may include a practical remedy, a goodwill gesture, staff training, or changes to our operational procedures.
Timescales for Handling Complaints
We aim to investigate and respond to complaints as promptly as possible. The exact time needed will depend on the complexity of the issue, the need to gather information from staff and any external factors relating to the removal or transport. We will try to keep you informed if more time is required to complete our enquiries.
If your complaint involves potential damage to property or goods, we may need to request additional evidence or arrange for an inspection before confirming our position. We appreciate your cooperation in providing the information needed for a fair assessment.
Outcomes and Remedies
When we find that something has gone wrong, our focus is on putting matters right where this is possible and appropriate. Depending on the situation, this may involve practical solutions, such as returning to complete an agreed service, adjusting an invoice, or considering a contribution towards repair or replacement where damage is clearly linked to our actions and within any applicable terms and conditions.
In some situations, we may be unable to offer the outcome you are seeking. Even where we do not agree with all aspects of a complaint, we still value the feedback and may use it to refine our approach to scheduling, handling, packing, route planning and customer updates in future moves.
If You Remain Dissatisfied
If, after receiving our final response, you remain unhappy with the outcome, you may ask us to review the decision. When doing so, please explain why you believe the response is incomplete or incorrect, and provide any new information that you feel has not been considered. We will then arrange for a further internal review, where possible by someone not directly involved in the original investigation.
Following this review, we will confirm our final position. While this will conclude our internal complaints process, you are still free to seek independent advice about your consumer rights in relation to removal and man and van services.
Continuous Improvement
Man and Van Colliers Wood treats each complaint as an opportunity to improve. We regularly review the issues raised, looking for patterns that might indicate where processes can be strengthened, whether in booking procedures, confirmations, staff training, loading and unloading methods, or the way we communicate with customers before, during and after a move.
By following this complaints procedure, you help us maintain and enhance the quality of our removal and man and van services in the areas we serve, and we appreciate the time you take to share your concerns with us.
