Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Very good service.

We have completed our flat move with this company.As time is on the short side we have also asked them to pack.After this experience I think no one should ever self pack.3 men packed our flat in under 4 hours..AMAZING.And they packed everything very well with no rush.
The move itself was a breeze.The crew was experinced and nice people to hsve around.They spoke good english and understood instructions very well,not that they needed to many.
They also took stuff out from the loft for us.
At our new place we asked them to take their shoes off as we had new carpets and also dmall children.Instead they immediately placed caroet covers in the whole house.Impressive stuff.
A very good service that I can wholeheartedely recommend.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Move on 24 August from Surrey to London.

Mike and his team arrive on the dot and were quick and efficient throughout. They were careful and responsive to ad hoc changes when I needed to change placement of items at the new property. Beds were dismantled and reassembled very fast and the team was courteous and communicative, taking a shorter lunch break than originally planned to get the work done. 
This was not a straightforward move, as there were in all three delivery locations in SE16, N4 and N16. I was also not charged extra for adding additional drops :-)
Mike was a great team leader, he even gave me a spare blanket to protect a table in storage, and his two colleagues were very effective throughout. Everything was delivered intact and I felt the experience lived up to the apparently very positive reputation of the company. My father met the team and was most impressed by the courtesy and efficiency.
I would not hesitate to recommend City-Removals and use them again.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to Leeds, Yorkshire

London to Leeds: as good as it gets.

The van turned up exactly when arranged. The two packers were courteous, listened to my instructions; and explained very clearly the process. They packed efficiently but also with great care, taking time to properly wrap delicate items and labelling boxes logically. Our stuff was taken away for overnight storage and they returned to finish packing the next day - because of the distance involved, it made sense to get an early start. When I met them at the storage unit in Leeds, again exactly at the estimated time, they were again swift, careful and efficient in unloading our things. Now we have finally moved our stuff into our house (there was a delay between moving out and moving in) I can vouch that nothing is broken and everything is there. Having undercut Pickfords by about £1000, I honestly can't imagine what I would have got for the extra money: the move was timely, efficient, hassle-free and undertaken in a friendly, professional manner. As such, I wholeheartedly recommend City Removals.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Great service.

My experience was very positive from start to finish. The lady who came out to do the estimate was punctual and friendly also managing to fit around my difficult schedule. We had both packing and removals service - the men arrived on time for both and were very courteous and efficient. They also reassembled furniture in our new house - including a bed that had not previously been assembled. I was very impressed at how quick they were. They were also incredibly good value for money - the quote was less than half that of another highly rated firm but the service was superb.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to Newport, Gwent

Excellent all round.

I obtained a number of quotes, and despite being one of the cheapest I found they also had some of the best reviews I had read.   City Removals turned out to be more professional and diligent than any removal company I had used in the past.   The men were great, knew their stuff and helped out on things outside of the usual remit. 
I cannot recommend them highly enough..hire them and you will not be disappointed.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Great.

I was left totally impressed by the service provided by this company.
First of all everyone I dealt with was extremely polite.By this I mean everyone..the moving men the office staff .The office staff always answerred my emails quickly and all my queries were answerred without any hidden stuff.The quoted price was the price we ended up paiyng.At no point had they tried to add extra charges or use dodgy terms and conditions.
To the 3 men that moved us on the day..you will not meet a nicer bunch.They came on time,presented themselves and immediately put me at ease.I was impressed by the care they took in carriyng every single item.Their skills I think are amazing.Not a single item broken or scratched at the end is quite a feat.
 Also our 2 beds and wardrobe  were dismantled like they were not there.
I feel very confident in recommending this company and I could write more about my experience.In the end all that matters is that we have received a service that we are very happy with therefore I would net hesitate to recommend them to anyone that is moving.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Job well done.

Altough they also quoted us for a packing service in the end we only hired this company to take care of our move.
It was a pretty simple move from our side and the company made sure it did not get any harder.They came on time and knew what they were doing.The guys were fully equipped with tools and other bits anf pieces.Their vehicle was new and very well taken care of.Also both guys were uniformed ,clean and spoke good english.They needed mininal guidance throughout the whole day.
The only possible glitch was that we needed to be out from our flat by 12.The company knew this and with a 7 am start they managed to empty our  property well before the deadline.
At our new flat they followed my wifes instructions precicesly as to where to place our furniture.They even moved a few pieces several times as she ws trying to find the best place for everything.
A job well done.

Very good on all aspects.

The service we received was nothing short of what we were expecting.On the contrary at the end we were quite surprized at how good and polite the men were,at how accomodating and friendly Nicola and Alex were in the office.
I am sure we weren't  the easyest of customers but the guys never moaned and helped us throughout the whole day.
We had no incidents on the move day.All out stuff arrived intact and in on piece with nothing missing.
Also the men dismantelled and reassemebled our bed and wardrobe and again these 2 pieces were put back together in a better shape than they were before.
Really can t fault the service or the atitude.TOP JOB.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Very Good.

This was a nightmare move on all counts apart from the removal itself which was admirably performed by this company.Incompetent lawyers left right and center ,impossible buyers,completion day moved several times,missing paperwork,etc.
The removal however was a differrent story.Very proffessional from start to the end.We had a home survey executed by a very nice young lady.She was smartly dressed, polite and knew her trade.She gave us the confidence of using this company and the choise was sound.
The men packed all our house the day before in record time.Fragile stuff was verry well protected, boxes were marked and they did not spare any protective materials.Aso on this day they did some dismantelling.
On the second day we had a 6 men crew.Acces was a little bit tricky as they could not get the truck very close to where we were.This was however compensated by the number of men and we managed to be out by 1pm.
All the workers were in good spirits and very hard working.Apart from the odd ciggie brake they worked on and on.Antique furniture was wrapped , sofas and matresses were coverred and eveything was protected.
Our new place the acces was much easyer.Unloading was straight forward with the men asking al the time where to place furniture.
I could go on but the bootom line is the service we got was almost impressive and I would happily use them again altough I hope I won t have to.

Good value and service.

Great value considering the service we have received.We booked the service well in advance as we wanted to make sure we hire a good company. For £350.00 we got a 2.men crew and a van that were with us for 8 hours.The guys came spot on time and were fully prepared,instructed and equipped.They even had a printed jobsheet with our details and other usefull things. They had tools blankets covers etc.We did not have too much furniture but our matress wad very well protected from dust as they wraoped it in a zipped cover. We also asked them to pack our fragile items.Again they had boxes tissue buble wrapp etc.Everything was packed impeccably and all the boxes were marked and handled with care. Top marks for a great service.
