Required to move out of home for 12 weeks during a renovation, Kennys team were thoroughly professional and efficient at removing, storing and returning all of our household goods and furniture. They were very flexible about the return date when we had to postpone a couple of times. The crew members were polite, helpful and considerate. Would highly recommend.

Over the past fifteen years I have used Kenny and his team for both removals and storage for myself personally. I have also recommended Kenny to clients ( I am an independent Fine Art Valuer) and he and his team have handled complicated and large jobs with the utmost care to detail. This includes shipping objects all around the world for my clients. I cannot recommend him more highly.
