Where to start on the accolades to shower over this brilliant company. It's all about the people isn't it? Sarah was our original contact to handle the quotes after we gave a video tour of the property to move from. She has been friendly and flexible the whole time. We moved from a large bungalow to a three floor house, with two teams handling this. The first team of packers were fantastic - fast, hard-working and good-humoured, as well as extremely respectful and careful. The unloading team were similarly focused and took great care with everything they handled. Considering we're moving with a

From start to finish they were very helpful and professional. On the day of the move, the guys on the lorry were efficient and conscientious. When off loading, there was a delay due to the solicitors but again Reads were patient and understanding. I would highly recommend this company

This was complicated 4 location move and executed faultlessly by Shaun and Michael - guys, many, many thanks, I still don't understand how you worked the volumes and got it all in that little truck! Kudos and many thanks.

Used Reads Removals to move a relatively short distance , we decided on Reads Removals as they were quick to visit our home to evaluate the job . On the morning of the move four Gentleman arrived and introduced themselves and instantly put us at ease , nothing appeared to be a problem and due to the immense amount of belongings they wasted no time in packing , all the time they were polite and helpful . The whole process was believe it or not was an extremely easy operation due to the professionalism of Reads Removals.

Just wanted to say how pleased we were with the Reads removals team during our recent move (about 100 miles) in particular Michael and David. They were endlessly helpful, friendly and hard-working and took great care with our belongings. They were very efficient and getting us out of our old place and into the new, and we have them to thank them now we are all settled in!
