Recommendation wanted for removals company

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

We are moving from lordship lane to forest hill in a few weeks and are looking for recommendations of a good local company to move us. We have quite a lot of furniture and lots of it is old so I'd love to hear about any nice companies who are strong and careful, and not too pricy!

Many thanks,

Pippa

Hi Pippa,


We just used Bridges Removals last week and they were excellent. I was planning to hire a van and ask some friends to help until MissusF persuaded me otherwise. Lovely, polite, and very professional. Cost us ?200 for a one bed flat compared to the ?100 the self drive would have cost me, but Stephen and Dean did in an hour what would have taken me all day, leaving us free to clean, plan and worry about the legal stuff. So much easier. Never moving by myself again!

I found Steve's number today on the forum. It was for an embarrassingly small and lastminute job - from a time point of view rather than weight (carrying a 90kg exercise plate up three flights of stairs). Steve couldn't have been more polite or professional. I was so impressed. He and his colleague arrived within 3hrs of my phone call (at the end of a busy day) called 40mins before arrival, did the job efficiently and was very reasonable. I almost wish we were moving again so that we could give him more business! It's really lovely knowing that companies like this exist. A massive thumbs up for Bridge's Removal Company!

    • Just as one example, the grass in a least some of  the tree pits in Ulverscroft Road appears to have been sprayed. If it's not the council who has done it, then I wonder if someone is trying to kill the trees 😭 although I doubt if that would work, as the council have sprayed tree pits in the past (ignoring handwritten notices by my then very young grandchildren asking them not to spray as they had sowed flower seeds there) 🤬 Grass in the pavement nearby appears to have been neither sprayed nor scraped out. I'm quite confused.
    • They aren't. They are removing them manually, scraping and cutting them out. I've seen them doing it on my road and surrounding roads. I can't imagine that they would have different methods in different parts of East Dulwich.
    • I see. But as I read it, Tesco would still need the agreement of the owners/ leaseholder to submit proposals, so would need Poundland’s cooperation? I suppose we’ll have to wait while this plays out. There’s applications re this site on the Southwark planning portal dating back over 70 years. In 1954, Woolworth’s applied to convert the original 4 shops here (Nos 29-35) into one Woolies but the council refused because the flats above the shops would be lost and there was a local housing shortage following the war. Small businesses being displaced by big chains on Lordship Lane was already a trend back then.
