ST01393: Level 2 Removals Operative

Version 1.0

The broad purpose of a Removals Operative is to pack items into boxes or crates and move the packed items, furniture, equipment, specialist items and any other customer possessions. They will assist with the loading and unloading of items onto and off specially built removals vehicles.

This industry covers different types of removal including household, international, commercial and government buildings and provides warehouse storage for customers.
Removals Operatives may work in various locations and surroundings when carrying out removals.

Examples are residential houses, offices, schools, factories, shops, libraries, museums, and hospitals. Removal companies vary in size providing national and international coverage and may have several sites they work from. All locations are different, and no two moves are the same.
