      HOUSE REMOVAL WITHIN MANCHESTER

      Having moved a lot over the years including Overseas, I can honestly say AMS Removals are the best Removal Company I have ever dealt with.

      After searching Removal Companies online, I contacted David and arranged a Removal at very short notice, he was incredibly accommodating and updated me regularly.

      They moved me this morning, Ben & Matt arrived on time, they were Professional & efficient, placed everything exactly where I wanted it in each room, nothing was too much trouble for them and they smiled all the way even though they had to move large heavy items up 4 flights of stairs because they wouldn't fit in the lift.

      I will be highly recommending them to Family & Friends.

      I would give 10 Stars if I could, well done and a massive thank you for making my moving day 100% stress free.

      Really Great Price too!

      Thank you so much, Fantastic Job!

      House Removal.

      Ben and Rob moved us recently and they were superb ! Our moving date kept changing dues to solicitors and paperwork etc, but AMS were very patient and worked with us every step of the way. On the day they were very professional and efficient and at the new house everything was put into the correct place in the correct rooms AND if needed rebuilt. They were also very reasonably priced.

      Well Done and Thank you.

      Excellent Service.

      This was our second move with the company and as with the first move they were amazing.

      The two lads we had were fantastic, they were really professional friendly lads who work exceptionally hard.

      Would highly recommend and would definitely use again.

      House move.

      We were originally considering moving ourselves but after 3 years had grossly underestimated the amount of stuff we had amassed and after reading the reviews and advice on their website about DIY moving decided that this was a job for someone who knew what they were doing.

      Could not be happier with the service provided. From start to finish AMS were nothing but brilliant, and more than accommodating even working round the builders I had in plastering a bedroom in our new house. What would have taken 4 of us 2 days took 2 of them just 2 trips leaving me feeling a bit like a spare part but able to relax a little.  Would not hesitate to recommend.

    • On the first move they packed all our belongings, and helped label them with things we would need out temporarily versus things we weren't going to unpack.

      Superb!

      Alan and his team were exceptionally helpful, professional and did a superb job.

      We used AMS twice in quick succession as we were moving to a temporary address first. On the first move they packed all our belongings, and helped label them with things we would need out temporarily versus things we weren't going to unpack. They also emptied a difficult to access loft. The whole house was packed and emptied by 2pm and on delivery they were happy to put the boxes in all the right rooms.

      Second time was a little easier as they only had to pack a small amount, but this time they were packed, and fully loaded withing 3 hours of arriving. Again delivery was perfect, and in addition they helped with the building of a new bed without warning.

      Overall the team are extremely professional. Clean, tidy, and they pack everything (if you chose this option) very carefully and extremely well packaged - no breakages at all.

      Would definitely recommend.

    • All of my goods were expertly packed, nothing was damaged and everything was placed exactly where I wanted it to be left in the new flat.

      Move from Manchester to London.

      I found AMS van hire online after reading a number of excellant reviews, I was extremely impressed to find that AMS lived up to their reviews. Alan was extremely helpful throughout the whole experience. AMS were flexible with my dates and times and as it was more convenient for me I could split the move over two days. All of my goods were expertly packed, nothing was damaged and everything was placed exactly where I wanted it to be left in the new flat.  I was moving from a shared flat and AMS were very flexible regarding what needed to be packed and what should be left in the flat as it wasn't mine. I also ended up having cleaners in cleaning the old flat while they were packing up and they were very flexible and able to work round them. I would definitely recommend Alan and the team at AMS for moving, compared to other companies I looked at I found them to not only be cheaper but also more personable and flexible.  AMS made what could have been a very stressful day relatively straight forward and enjoyable. .

      Faultless.

      Having struggled for weeks to find a company that was willing to move my stone table and other items, and receiving quotes of around £1000 plus various 'waiver' fees (Britannia Bradshaw, P.Fahey - total rip off merchants!!) AMR quoted for around 1/3rd of this, turned up a few days later, and did the job in a few hours, including dismantling and reassembling a large bed, cot, wardrobe and baby-changing unit. I can't recommend them highly enough.

    • the people AMS sent to our house were polite, efficient, hardworking and of course very careful with our property

      Excellent.

      This is the second time we have used AMS and again 100% satisfaction. Last time we moved from Manchester to Reading and this time we moved back up to Manchester. On both occasions, the people AMS sent to our house were polite, efficient, hardworking and of course very careful with our property. We were given a competitive price and definitely received value for money. We did not have any negative experiences and will recommend AMS to anyone.

    • The whole job (including carefully storing wardrobes & bed parts in our garage only took just over six hours

      Two stage move!

      Excellent service from AMS. We needed to move my sons belonging (sliding door wardrobes, bed, mattresses, clothes, drawers, coffee tables, chairs etc) from Salford Quays to North Manchester and then take some on to our home in Jarrow. We agreed a price & time with Alan and he & his team arrived on the dot at 8.30. They removed all the materials, dismantled the bed & sliding door wardrobe, took the moveables to my sons new flat in North Manchester , then in no time brought the rest to us here in Jarrow. The whole job (including carefully storing wardrobes & bed parts in our garage only took just over six hours and the lads were finished at Jarrow just after 2.30.

      I cannot speak highly enough of the two workers who lifted and carried the gear and were pleasant and professional in their approach, meaning the whole job was less stressful than we expected

      Well done to Alan & his team.

      Easy, hassle-free and cheap!

      Great experience really. Turned up bang on time, professional attitude and a quality van. Much better than I would have expected given that AMS were literally half the price of the other quotes I received from other Manchester-based delivery companies.

      Apparently this has to be 250 characters - didn't realise they expected War & Peace. Other things.. had a good chat, Alan, the propreitor, seemed like a sound guy, like the way the business is run as the cost was very reasonable.

      I really would recommend AMS to anybody and hope the business continues to do well.

    • cost very reasonable and from my research worked out more cost effective than hiring a van and doing it myself.

      AMS Review.

      Difficult to fault the service. No hesitation in recommending this company to others. Came out on a sunday over a bank holiday weekend at relatively short notice. All items were strapped and secured during transit with no damage. cost very reasonable and from my research worked out more cost effective than hiring a van and doing it myself. Moved from a second floor flat with no stairs with no issues for them getting heavy items out.

    • Alan and his team are efficient, punctual, accommodating, reliable, cheerful and very reasonably priced.

      Brilliant - would definitely use them again.

      We've used AMS removals three times now and each time they have been fantastic. From moving house between London and Manchester to a local garage clearance we have been impressed by their faultless service each time. Alan and his team are efficient, punctual, accommodating, reliable, cheerful and very reasonably priced. They could not have been more helpful, no problem is insurmountable and everything was moved quickly and safely which made moving a surprisingly stress-free experience!

      Excellent service.

      I used AMS to remove my belongings from storage to my new home. The two guys were very professional and friendly. They were a few minutes late arriving due to traffic but called me to say they were held up. At the house they thought through how the more bulky items would be best manuveured to get them in and were very careful not to knock any walls or doors. The move went very smoothly and I would definitely use them again.

    • running a little late because of an earlier job going a little over time

      A surprisingly stress free experience.

      I'll start by saying that I can unreservedly recommend AMS. I chose them for a move from a two bed flat to a three bed house on the basis of their good reviews and their thoughtful and good value quote. I am very happy with my choice. Communication was excellent throughout; for example, when running a little late because of an earlier job going a little over time (not a problem - it happens), I very much appreciated Alan's diligence in keeping me up to date on revised arrival times. The move itself was remarkably smooth and went entirely without a hitch; this was aided in no small part by Alan and co's meticulous and considered approach. Would definitely use them again.
