Reviews
Absolutely the worst moving company I have ever used. Their business model is to undercut pricing, win a project and then slap extra charges for as much as they possibly can. In our case they also lied about the charges for extra packaging material. We have an email where they say no extra costs are added if we need more packaging material albeit we ended up paying hundreds of pounds for that. Along with extra trips and whatnot. We really didn't even have much alternatives because they didn't start unpacking before we had paid. At this point I felt they held our stuff as hostage. Obviously they never came back to any of our attempts to discuss this afterwards. Also, everything was delayed and took more time than what we had discussed causing extra stress. And don't expect to get a receipt either. Extra costs came up to be around 60% more which is quite a lot given that they use surveyor. I don't believe a "professional" surveyor can estimate costs and required work so grossly unless it was intentional and is evidenced by their extortionate manners during the day. Disgusting and shameful operation.
The vehicles were not as agreed in the contract. The hanging wardrobes were missing despite me phoning beforehand to remind them. The competitive quote turned out to be no better than the others when you factor in the surcharges for our incomplete packing and the distance we were going and hence the after hours work involved. I would have liked this explained up front rather than being held to ransom on the day.
On the plus side, the removal guys were careful and worked hard.
We had thirty years of stuff to move as we were retiring and with hindsight, I would advise anyone in similar circumstances to be ruthless in their decluttering and get their removal company to pick up one truckload a few days before to give you space to pack the rest. Rule of thumb, our cluttered 3 bed semi filled three 5 ton Luton type vans, about 2200 cubic feet of stuff if you can box it well. Get any remover to give you their estimate of the cubic feet so at least you are comparing quotes realistically. Then it is down to which one you trust. You get what you pay for.Haven't moved yet. OK so far.
