House removal company recommendation?

Recommended Posts

We used Harradines when we moved recently. They were superb from start to finish and removed a HUGE amount of the stress of moving house.


They packed almost everything for us and unloaded and re-assembled beds and flat pack wardrobes at the new place.


I can honestly say they were worth every penny.


One thing to note - although they pack and label, they don't sort. So random items can end up in the same box just because they're near each other in the same room. And lots of boxes end up being labled "Odds" (as in odds and ends). So pack and label any boxes that you'll need as soon as you move. They're happy to provide boxes in advance so you can do this (and they'll collect unpacked boxes for re-use, so a green thumbs up there too!)

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
