VIA Removals and Storage Ltd
17 Newport Street, Nelson, BB9 7RW
At Via Removals and Storage, we have the expertise to ensure your house or office move is completed safely, smoothly and efficiently.
based on 12 reviews"Via did a fantastic job for me. I can't recommend them highly enough. Legal difficulties meant that I couldn't book a mover until the day before and it was not only a regularly full four-bedroom house, but also a garage and loft conversion containing 1000s of heavy old 78rpm records (140 boxes), which we didn't know till late in the day that the team would also have to move those after being let down by the friend who was going to help with this more special job. They were absolutely fantastic, and, as if these circumstances weren't bad enough, they also had to deal with the new owners being completely unreasonable and vile to them and even throwing them out of the house at one point, but they were totally professional down to the last man. I can't thank them enough. I'm sorry its taken a month for me to be able to get this review written, but I couldn't do it from my phone for some reason and I've only just got the laptop set-up with the internet in the new house. I wish Via all the very best for business in the future and I similarly wish all the very best to each and every one of those wonderful lads who were fabulous under those awful circumstances. HEROES !!"

based on 40 reviews"The firm was booked moving week. Very detailed quote completed over the phone. Everything advised was delivered on. Very professional and efficient on the day. I would suggest there is a clause in the contract, so when C&G Removals customer receives keys to their new property. The new property is vacant ready for C&G Removals to unload in a timely manner. This was clearly a downside of the day for C&G Removals. Especially due to how late the day ended for the guys. The packing and unpacking is amazing. We could, and still can access everything due to their skills. We very much appreciated the fact we could easily sleep on our mattress having been up 21 hrs on moving day. "
