Report
I am not someone who normally writes reviews, but I have been so impressed by this company's assistance I feel it's the least I can do! Being over 150 miles away, and having the mammoth job of clearing my late uncle's flat, I found Lee, who dealt with the whole process efficiently and professionally. The flat is on the 2nd floor with no lift and my uncle was a hoarder, but Lee moved everything including a piano and his fees were extremely reasonable for the hard work involved
Lee communicated with me the whole way and made a very stressful time, so much easier for me. I can't thank him enough

Let down by other company at last minute. But lee was able to clear a property for me after a job he had finished. He started at 16.00 and was finished by 21.30. Lee and his team went out of their way to help and it was even slightly cheaper than the company that let me down.
