From the minute I spoke to Chris at Dolphin, I knew our move from London to Liverpool was in safe hands. I showed him around our flat via Zoom call, and he sent over a competitive quote. We confirmed our booking via email and paid using bank transfer. It was all very straightforward. The packing team in London arrived promptly, were extremely professional, and packed up our 2 bed flat efficiently. They didnt let us lift a finger! Equally, the team in Liverpool unloaded the truck quickly and placed boxes in the relevant rooms making our unpacking straightforward. They also assembled our beds

An excellent experience from start to finish, including an initial virtual visit, an in-person visit a few days before the move and an efficient and friendly move itself. They arrived on time and completed the job quickly and competently. I would thoroughly recommend.
