They packed all our household possessions over 2 days and took some to be held in long term storage. We found delicate items unboxed and damaged. Light fittings damaged. No thought or care as to how items should be stored. Lots of loose items laid on the floor underneath heavy objects. Utterly appalling customer care. Needless to say we are moving to another storage company. On the day on moving all the men did was complain about the owner of the business. They ran out of space and we had to bring items that had been left. Very very shabby service. Disappointing as they had been recommended

Used this company recently and just want to say how professional the team was who dealt with my removal. Great team of lads who handled everything with utmost professional care and took a lot of stress out of a pretty stressful day. The manager, Mr David Brown is very courteous, professional and makes sure everything is done according to your requirements. The quote was very reasonable and I had no issues with the job . It went very smooth. I would highly recommend this company if you need removals or storage . Cheers everyone for a hassle free day .
