We booked a last-minute move after deciding we couldnt shift everything ourselves. The team were very responsive, helpful and polite in generating a quote and booking our move. On moving day, the guys got everything across efficiently and with great care. I really appreciate that they took the time to put boxes in the applicable rooms on the other side, even though we hadnt had enough time to label them by room. I would not hesitate to recommend.

Kerr's were absolutely amazing and I would recommend Kerr's without any reservation whatsoever. They moved us from Edinburgh to Wales - and planned and executed the move in a highly professional, efficient and friendly manner. This is a fa family firm and you get a dedicated person service by a firm that really know what they are doing. In all an outstanding experience. Thank you.

We moved from a large family home in Surrey to a large upper-floor flat in central Edinburgh in November 2021. And we started the process with a quote from Bill Kerr via a video-tour call from my mobile phone at home in Surrey. Kerr's planned perfectly for the move to take place over four days - starting with efficiently and securely packing up our Surrey home over 1.5 days (including a baby grand piano and several potted olive and lemon trees!) and our possessions were delivered and unloaded in perfect condition into our new Edinburgh home on day four. Our possessions were moved from Surrey in

Can’t recommend Kerr’s enough. Made a difficult process as easy as it could have possibly been.
