In answer to Miles, yes, I think they didn’t find it easy. I helped - because I had been to the USA six months’ ago and randomly bought some one time use face masks. I got them pre-coronavirus for my daughter, who was newly pregnant and simply worried about exhaust fumes and toxic air in London when she was out and about. Still had loads left so offered them up to the removals guys, who were amazed and found them really good. We also had lots of hand gel (again purchased in the US) which we dispensed to them one each. They had quite a lot of moving devices, which meant a lot of the time, they were able to move articles by themselves. Most of the time, they were able to keep to the regular distancing requirements, but i am sure, not always. It is a very difficult balance to make. In our work/industry, we have had the same problems with ensuring distancing rules. Having masks and having hand washing facilities AND anti-bacterial gels is the minimum. We were really grateful for our movers, as we would have been potentially in a terrible position if they hadn’t been able to do it. We provided packed lunch/sandwiches and cold drinks from the supermarket rather than the riskier making tea and coffee option for them, which also prevents transmission risks. The other point was that our house had been empty for eight months prior to us moving in. I imagine most people’s house sales and purchases have fallen through due to this current situation. It was important that we had absolutely everything ready and packed for them, to make it quick for them to load and go. We spent weeks packing beforehand, into stacked boxes put into our double garage.

Did anyone move? We moved on 9th April, using a local removals firm ... house was empty so all good. But been without TV, Wi-fi/broadband, landline.... but that’s another story. Two weeks on, we now have basic TV but still no Wi-fi (thanks, BT) and a load of stuff we didn’t want to take with us, but had no choice due to no recycling/refuse centres open or charity shops! Luckily, a friend knew a local farmer and they took away an old mattress to be burnt, (apparently it is normal for farmers to have a little dell to burn their unwanted things in...) but still have loads of packing boxes. The other problem is, due to no deliveries, we can’t get the new bed frame we ordered or wardrobe (was able to get clothes rails as a last resort) so it’s not all that convenient.

Peter, No lawyer is even going to look at it. These are unprecedented times. Let him try to sue you. He will get nowhere.
