Committee CEN/TC 320 “Transport - Logistics and Services" for approval as a draft for CEN Formal
Vote.

Introduction
This European Standard is the second part of a two-part standard, intended to establish a minimum
level of service and performance, in enterprises dealing with the storage of furniture and personal
effects, for private individuals. Together with Part 1 and EN 12522-1 and EN 12522-2 Furniture
removal activities- Furniture removal for private individuals, it forms a suite of European Standards
developed to ensure that appropriate, minimum, standard of services and facilities for the removal and
storage of household furniture and effects for private individuals are available on an equal basis,
across the European Community.
Within each activity, it has been necessary to make a distinction between the "service" on the one
hand, and the "provision of the service" on the other:
the service: all the services agreed upon between the service provider and the customer within
the framework of the contract; include characteristics which allow this said service to be
assessed;
provision of the service: all the factors employed by the service provider which include the
personnel, the equipment, the organization and the budget with a view to carrying out the service.
The systems of reference constitute a beneficial means of achieving the following objectives:
create a dialogue with the consumers which is favourable to the profession;
permit customers to identify and compare the services offered by companies in order to benefit
from the positive spin-off of fair competition in an open market;
protect customers against provision of services, the characteristics of which may not be in
compliance with the standards;
allow the professionals of the trade to conduct their activity with the aid of technical specifications
that are clearly defined by a common understanding;
finally, as regards the single market, to allow the activity to position itself efficiently in order to
meet the needs of the European customer by having at its disposal, in particular, harmonized
general conditions of contract.
