Dan and Maciek handled our removal. They were punctual, hard working, polite and respectful. We were very happy with their service. They had the van loaded shipped across to the new property and unloaded within less than 6 hours. They obliged by placing items in the required rooms and nothing was too much trouble. A glass item was damaged and they called the owner immediately who agreed to repair on our behalf without hesitation. We would highly recommend this firm. The owner, admin and removal staff are an absolute pleasure to deal with and all at a very reasonable price.

I luckily managed to get a booking at short notice, the price was very competitive and the service excellent. The 4 guys helping with my move took great care, were polite and really professional.
Unloaded everything where I needed it and made sure everything was OK before leaving.

They offered a substantial discount due to some mix up on the moving date. The day of the move was about as stress as it could have been. 2 bedroom house moved entirely in around 3 and a half hours. Would happily use their services again.

AR had my move done really quickly. Reasonably priced and the guys who came to move all the stuff were really friendly. Cain was super helpful after informing me that one of the vans had broken down, they managed to get a van sorted and got all the stuff moved on the day I had booked. Will definitely be using you guys again in the future :)
