Jenny I Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Hi,when we moved from Brixton to ED nine years ago we used Harradines (SE15) and they were great. Reasonable costs and the two removal men were really helpful, even helping to clear the house we were moving into (it had been rented out and the landlord didn't want the furniture) when the clearance company let us down on the day. They took apart and rebuilt beds and wardrobes - i think this is pretty standard though.good luckJenny Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/43261-looking-for-removals-company-recommendation/#findComment-739038 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppermum Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Highly recommend Robert and deny's who are based in Peckham. Such great service and really friendly chaps-they did our packing too at a v reasonable rate (I was 8m preg with 2nd child so a necessary luxury!)

JessM Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Second Roberts & Dennys, have used them 3 times and they were fab all 3 times. Our "chief mover" on the day each time was Ollie, ask for him cos he is great Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/43261-looking-for-removals-company-recommendation/#findComment-739097 Share on other sites More sharing options...

R11 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 We moved locally last year with a 3 year old and 8 month old and used Smile Moves. They did the whole packing service too and were absolutely brilliant - such nice guys and did a great job. They were also our lowest quote.

peleparso Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I'd give another shout for Harradines - they're local and very efficient.

etta166 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 OIS removals in Herne Hill helped us move (about 5 years ago). They were good value and very helpful. I was 6m pregnant at the time and althugh we hadn't paid or asked them to pack they arrived with boxes on the assumption that we'd need a hand!

pearcesa Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 We've had Harradines pack and move us twice and would highly recommend them.

jenc Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Just another vote for Smile Moves - they packed and moved us last month and were excellent.

madmum Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Robert and Denny's have used them for 3 moves including a big office move.

Emily69 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Hi, I would recommend Elephant Removals and here are my reasons why, first of all I was quiet happy with the way they approached me, I never moved before and this was something a whole new experience for me.The gentlemen over the phone were polite, do listen to your needs and give you the best advice.At first I was worried but when the movers arrived, they knew exactly what to do and I did not need to hover on top of their heads to keep an eye on them.Very polite, excellent understanding, good management, careful and most importantly friendly.Highly recommended.PS moved to ED Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/43261-looking-for-removals-company-recommendation/#findComment-778082 Share on other sites More sharing options...
theasidonio Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 We used Harradines back in April, they were quick and reasonably priced Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/43261-looking-for-removals-company-recommendation/#findComment-778151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
K18PED Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 We used Bridges for our move in August and they were brilliant. Steve was easy to contact and really helpful. He dropped round boxes, bubble wrap, wrapping paper and tape before the move and on the day he and his team made the whole process smooth and hassle free. They took care to ask where all boxes etc went the other end too.

matnurse1983 Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 We used Pavel and AndMove in the end. They were very competitive and super polite. I've never seen people work so fast. They only took a short break for lunch. I would definitely recommend them.
