Over 4 intense days, Harradines packed up my home of 33 years, including many, many paintings and fragile items, and unloaded everything at the other end, including refitting the washing machine and dishwasher.

We used their comprehensive packing and moving service and that was definitely worth the extra money - the packers

They have moved stuff in and out of a variety of houses and flats for us, as well as keeping some of our belongings in their storage facility. They also did an unusual job of packing up all our possessions and putting them in our own attic (when we had tenants for a year), then getting them all out again afterwards. Nothing is too much trouble, everything is wrapped carefully and sensibly, they follow instructions properly, and always want
