removal company recommendations and advice

Hello Maxie. Well, it depends on what kind of budget you have for your move. Naturally if you pack everything on your own and just call a man with a van you'd save some money. However I too recommend you hire a company which does packing and not just moving. They know what they're doing and have special boxes for items of all sizes. Plus they can pack your home a lot faster than you can. For my last move in Dulwich I called Best Move and they saved me a great deal of nerves by both packing and transporting all my belongings.

Good luck with your move!

I just moved using Superb Moves www.superb-moves.co.uk


Chris and the team did a great job from the initial visit to assess my move to delivering the final box.


The team arrived on time and worked tirelessly to pack all my belongings with great care and attention - there wasn't one broken glass or cracked plate which I'm sure wouldn't have been the case if I'd done it myself! Large pieces of furniture were wrapped and moved carefully, even taking a door off its hinges at one point to ensure nothing was scratched. Finally, they made the dis-assembly and reassembly of large wardrobes and beds look easy. Nothing was too much trouble, even moving heaving pieces of furniture between rooms as I changed my mind on where things should go.


I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris and the team at Superb Moves.


Best of luck with your move!

Hello Maxie,

Not sure if this is still relevant but we moved just before Christmas and went will Parkers Removals. They were friendly, polite and efficient. They provided an excellent service and even helped us to assemble some of our furniture. The number is 07415719824

You can surely find a company that could do the packing and moving of your furniture expertly and in a fast manner. Hence, it?s really a good idea to hire a removal company. I advise that you should get free removal quotes first before hiring one. This will help you locate a removal company UK that provides cheap but quality removal services.

Hello


I moved a couple of weeks ago between two houses in ED. I used Harradines - used their full packing service, disassembly and reassembly etc. totally worth out - no stress at all. They did everything. Affordable, professional and efficient. Very good service. Highly recommend.

Hi Willow,


We are a removal company based in East Dulwich. I would be happy to view your job, make an assessment and send you a quotation accordingly.


We are big enough to take on any job, and small enough to care how well it is completed.

Hi, I used VP removals (Vitek and Peter) after reading a good review about them on here... I got quotes from about 6 other companies and theirs was by far the cheapest, and they were very friendly.

They were very reliable and dead on time for coming round for the quotation, arriving for the packing (on the 15th December) and arriving for packing and transporting and unpacking, and reassembling wardrobes etc on the 16th...

I am pregnant and single and they worked solidly for around 18 hours on the 2 days without even stopping for lunch. They provided 2 vans and loaded the first one the day before....they were very honest and trustworthy and helped to ease the stress after nearly 20 years of living in London.

I would NOT hesitate in recommending them !

Hi, I have moved this week. I got several quotations - VP Removals were the cheapest so I chose them. My sofabed and bookcase were too big to go through the doorway so they removed the door, dismantled sofabed and bookcase and built them again in the flat then put the door back on. All done quickly and calmly and patiently. Extremely professional. They are also very friendly and made the whole moving process much more pleasant. I totally recommend them.

We used VP removals after recommendations on the forum and they were great and exactly as described, polite, effective, efficient and excellent value. I had to add to the job I'd described on the day, and the address we were dropping off at was down a much narrower lane than I had realised, and they were unphased by the changes or the challenging circumstances. Great chaps, would highly recommend.

We are just sitting in our new house after moving today and thanking Providence for VP Removals - they were AMAZING. Turned up bang on time. Found a parking space like magic. Calm, friendly and kind (I was a bit stressed and they made me feel so much better). Nice to the cats. Packed up 14 years of life with no fuss. All boxes clearly and helpfully labelled. Not a single breakage. Consistently nice, never even raised an eyebrow when I was overwhelmed and didn't know where things went. Everything transported to our new house in a twinkle of an eye, used their initiative and are possibly telepathic.


after they'd gone, we realised we didn't know where my partner's MacBook was. Panicked. Rang them just in case they knew...thought they would say "we packed over a hundred boxes for you today - we have no idea" - but Vitek rang back to say he remembered AND REMEMBERED which box it was! Astonishing.


Absolutely excellent service and very reasonably priced. We are very grateful.

A glowing recommendation for Chris with Superb Moves. I loved these guys. Chris was fantastic from the beginning, giving us a highly competitive estimate and was flexible with our timeline when our move date had to change. He and his team showed up promptly both days with smiles on their faces, ready to tackle anything. They never complained, they got on with the job and they moved everything in absolutely perfect condition. I would use them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and hardworking team. Thank you, Chris!

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
