Britannia Bradshaw International Removals in Manchester & Birmingham
Britannia Bradshaw began life in 1884 as John Bradshaw & Son removers in Stockport, Cheshire, Greater Manchester. Our removal company headquarters are now based in our modern, purpose-built warehouse in Trafford Park, Manchester, which was specially designed for the storage of household furniture and effects.
For removals in Birmingham, our Birmingham branch and storage warehouse provides our customers in Birmingham and the West Midlands with the same professionalism and quality service with a smile that we've been providing to customers in Manchester since 1884.

A moment in time
We wanted to capture a moment in time that reflects how our business looks after all our years managing removals, so we had this painting commissioned by. I. G. Mackay. It is brilliant to have this piece of art on show to demonstrate how quickly things change over short periods of time and remind us of the present. The painting will sit in our Manchester headquarters.

My move on the 17th went very smoothly, and the 18th also went very well. It was a nightmare in Lymm. We only got the key at 3:30 p.m. and into the property around 5:00 p.m. Your team were excellent and unloaded everything by 18:15. Brilliant!
Best Wishes
Careful and considerate and despite very difficult weather conditions

Last week we moved to Anglesey, Rhys, Luke and Ben did both days of our move, loading and unloading for us. They were a fantastic team, they were careful and considerate and despite very difficult weather conditions when unloading they managed to get everything where we needed it. Thank you so much for making 2 potentially stressful days so much easier. J
A very professional job

Would you like to tell us anything about your move team?
Dave and George made a titanic (to me!) job look easy. They took every heavy lift, awkward shape and tight corner in their stride, were fast and knew exactly what should go where. They approached all the furniture manoeuvring with a can-do attitude, the heroes of the day really, a very professional job!

I've sent Dave & George a glowing review but I`d also like to say how much I appreciated you and the others I spoke to over the phone in advance of the move. My sale wasn’t easy and you were all really helpful in all my repeated enquiries about dates and arrangements: in fact - you were downright kind.
So, thank you Claire.
