Report
Superb service at a very sensible price. Weather (snow and ice) delayed our move at the last minute but they communicated brilliantly and made the following day go as smoothly as it possibly could. Would both recommend them to others and use them again without hesitation.

Report
I cannot praise Walsh transport enough. Our house move proved to be very protracted and complicated over a six month period and ended just before Christmas. Trying to marry up a removal firm with vague and not so definitive dates was almost impossible when all other local firms turned out to be either unresponsive or too busy to assist. Simon at Walsh transport stuck with us from initial contact to the moving date and when we finally were able to give him definitive dates he was there with his team for us despite being very busy themselves. I thought we had very little property to move, how wrong

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Walsh Transport. Simon came to see us at the house prior to booking and was very helpful. On the day of the move the lads arrived at 8am on the dot and our 2 bed was empty and in storage by 11! Friendly, efficient service - thank you, you made our move stress free!
