    I couldnt recommend these guys highly enough. I was dubious about using a company that wasn't recommended by my family or friends but these guys really put me and my partner at ease on moving day. They arrived on time, went above and beyond, and nothing was broken in the move. 100% would recommend to our nearest and dearest.

    ALJ Moving Services were a real revelation. They were prompt, courteous, helpful and caring. They went the extra mild and provided very good guidance. They also went the extra mild to ensure that the move was a success. They conquered all of our initial stressful fears of moving - by eradicating it. A big "Thumbs Up" and 5 Star Quality.
    Thank you Liam and Dave, who were very well supported by Gillian in the office - who also went the extra mile. THANK YOU - ALJ Moving Services.

    Thank you SO much - we really appreciate you taking the time to leave us this feedback!

    Thankyou so much for a stress free move. We were moving my Mum from Norfolk to Kent. Dave and Liam were really friendly and totally professional. They were punctual (slightly early in fact) and just got on with job. No fuss and nothing too much trouble. At the new flat, everything was put where we asked.
    Booking through Gill was really easy and the quote was considerably less than all others we tried!
    A huge thankyou thankyou to all involved.
    Highly recommended! Five star service!

    Thanks SO much Peter - we really appreciate your kind words!

    An excellent experience with ALJ. Both the guys were really friendly and helpful. They were very careful with the furniture and did a great job. I always worry prior to a move, but from the get go, with the service Gill provides in the office, arranging everything, through to the move, everyone was prompt, professional and courteous. An all round great team, all for a very good price. Thanks!

    The best moving company I have come across. The service from Gill in the office through to Dave and Liam was fantastic. I can't thank them enough for their professionalism, yet friendly and down to earth approach. It was pleasant to have them do the work for us. I would highly recommend ALJ Moving Services, you won't regret using them. I can truly go on and on.

    I'm a disabled former serviceman with mobility problems and lived in a small bedsit, but still had all the 'stuff' like I lived in a 2 bedroom flat. All the quotes I had to move did not include ANY packing nor taking my bed apart. ALJ where cheaper than all the others, more than half as much than the most expensive quote, who told me when THEY would do it !
    ALJ turned up on time, were not phased by the amount of packing to be done, (I'd done what I could), took the bed apart and moved me with no fuss or hassle, putting the bed together at the new flat too !
    OUTSTANDING, is the only way to sum them up.

    Response:
    Oh Chris thank you for your kind words! We really appreciate it!

    Dave & Liam were amazing, they made a stressful time so much easier. I was completely disorganised and unprepared but that didn't faze the guys! They were friendly, had a joke or two but were still very professional. They went above and beyond what I could have expected. I highly recommend the team, including Gill from the office. They weren't the cheapest quote I received but were still amazing value for money and I am so glad I chose ALJ Moving Services

    Response:
    That's so kind of you! Thanks SO much Lyndsay - we hope you're very happy in your new home!

    I moved from a first floor flat over a pub and because of the layout and a tight space at the bottom of the stairs, it was never going to be an easy move, plus there was time constraints due to pub opening times but the guys made an early start and cracked on with it , I couldna??t have asked for more, all three were polite and took it in there stride , a big thank you guys, I would definitely recommend you to anyone.
