Report
We only had six boxes to send from Devon to Nottingham. The van arrived early on the morning of collection and the lead man came and greeted us before loading the boxes onto the van. They were put in a compartment in the back and locked. On the morning of arrival a week later, they took the furniture up the stairs and helped to unpack. The two man crew were pleasant and friendly, careful and efficient. Top marks from us.
