A public appeal has been launched to help a couple with a very unique removals request - specifically, one that involves wearing no clothes.
A naturist couple contacted removals site Shift to see if anyone could help with a 'bespoke moving job', saying in a message that they hoped to find someone with a van to help them move next month.
They explained that they'd be happy to pay around £2,000 for the 'right person'.... who would be required to work 'also be without his clothes'.

The team at Shift responded to say that the job couldn't be listed on the website 'due to operating policies', but offered to share the plea on its blog instead.
Shift wrote: "Last week we received a request from a naturist couple with an extremely unique request, one that was related to their ideologies and traditions (we're sure you can see where this is going)."
The post adds that staff had taken screenshots of the original conversation so applicants could 'read what's required directly from them'.

In the message to Shift, the wife had said that they were planning on moving in mid-September for her husband's work, and were looking to hire a removal worker to take them around 50 miles from Reading to London.
She continued: "They'll need a large van as we've got quite a lot of stuff to take with us! I know this all sounds reasonably normal, however my husband and I are nudists, and the reason I mentioned this request being bespoke, is that we'd like the mover who comes to our house to also be without his clothes.
"Normally we don't expect other people to follow our traditions, however as this mover is going to be insider our house and coming into contact with our belongings we'd feel more comfortable if he could mirror our practices."
While Shift was unable to fulfil the contract due to the, ahem, unique nature of their request, the team offered to help find the right person for the job with an appeal.

"We've launched a public appeal to find a removals pro to fit the couples' needs," Shift said, saying you'll just need to be 'handy at helping people move house, and quite like being in the nude'.
The removal site added: "We'll be passing all details from interested movers to the couple, who will be contacting potential candidates directly."
