Do you have any comments about our removals crew?
They were excellent
Where can we improve our removals day experience?
Everything was perfect apart from the fact I had labelled all boxes top and side and the removal men didn’t stack the boxes in the garage with the labels facing. This meant that we had to turn each box around to see what number it was.

Quick, friendly, polite, efficient
Just to let you know that everything went well today. Paul and Luke were absolutely great. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They were quick, friendly, polite, efficient. They were very careful in their work. The company should be proud to have them working for it, and you too Jacki. I would definitely recommend the company because of all of you,and not to forget Martin too.
I hope all the employees in the company are like you four (Paul, Lucas, Jacki, Martin).
Thank you very much
