City-Removals and Storage

A very good service with no hitches.Everything was done properly and the company did their job very well.No stress was added to what was already a stressfull day.
They were recommended to me by a friend,but just to get an indication of the price range we aleo asked for another 2 quotations.They were slightly more expensive but in the end it was well worth it.
The whole job took a little longer than expected because of the total and utter incompetence of Camden Council who forgot to put our parking suspension in place even though we paid for it 3 weeks before our move date.But this was not the removal companie's fault.They did everything they could to overcome this by working harder and not making a big issue out if this.
I would give them a 9 out of 10:There is always room for improvement but they provided us with a really good service and I can t pick anything that was not done right.
Well done.

This is the second time when we have used this company and they have been just as good as the first time.We have now moved back to our newly refurbished house after spending the last 6 months in a rented property.
We specifically asked for the same team and they provided the same men.They made the whole move incredibly fast and easy.I guess having the same team made things that little bit easier as they knew what our requirements were.
Also whenever we had a query In the lead up to the move Ioana in the office was very helpful and also the other ladies whom i spoke to.
The whole move was very well organized and everyone we spoke or dealt with did their best to provide us with their best service.
I have already recommended them to my sister who has already been visited by their surveyor and is now waiting for their quote.
Fantastic service all around.I won t surely be moving again but I would definitely recommend this company.

We asked 5 companies to quote and in the end we chose to 3 companies who came and visited our flat. We were left most impressed by Nicola who was very through in her assesment.She was the only one who opened all the cupboards and even went up in the loft.We received the quote via email on the same day and we immediately booked. They were a tad more expensive than the others but we felt they would do a good job and piece of mind was more important to us than the price of the move. The whole job lasted 2 days.We had 5 very nice and professioanl workers who did their jobs perfectly well and made sure our day was as pain free as possible. What was a relatively easy removal could have been a nightmare with the wrong people but fortunately it  was not our case.The men were very organzied and worked very efficient. The whole service was as good as it gets and we felt well looked after by everyone.

We have recently moved from London to Cambridge.We did not have a great deal to move but still it was to much if we were to do it ourselves.
We contracted this company as they were the cheapest from the 5 quotes we have received.
They provided us with a very good service.We have moved without using a removal company before but after seeing these guys in action we saw what a massive difference using professionals makes.
No stress whatsoever.We wanted to help but the men told us we do not have to.It was a massive difference to when we did it ourselves.
They did not brake or scratched anything either.The move took 8 hours taking into account the trip to Cambridge which is about 90 minutes so it was not bad at all.
The crew were from Romania and after meeting them I was left with a very good impression.
It was not the hardest day for them nor the easiest but they had a good attitude to the end and made our day a lot better than it  could have been.

City Removals moved us into our new property mid december last year.Unfortunately our landlord has decided to sell and we had to move again.
The service provided was as good as the previous time.There was no need for another home survey as we had the same stuff.
I have no idea how these men do removals everyday but the fact is they do it and they are excellent at it.
This time however we bought some new furniture from Ikea and we asked them to put it together.They gave us a separate price for this which we thought was reasonable.It took them around 3 hours in total so it wasn t an easy job,but they managed to do it.
One very tiny incident was that they broke a lamp.The crew appologised  for this on the day and took it with them for repairs.2 weeks later they brought it back fully functional.Excellent customer service.No hassle at all.
Also as repeat customers they gave us 10 per cent off what we paid the first time.

We used City Removals after they have been recommended to us.Just so that we were aware of the sort of price we should pay we also asked 3 other companies for a quote.
They also gave us a 10 per cent discount for being recommended so in the end we went with them.
The whole move was as smooth and stress free as possible.We wanted to do it all in one day as we did not want to be disturbed over two days.In total we had 5 men who came at 06:30 am and they have managed to pack load and deliver all our things by 07:00pm.A long day but it was absolutely worth it.We also left the kids with my parents for the whole day so we had one less thing to worry about.
All the guys were very polite and did a great job.Nothing was too much trouble for them and they went out of their way to make sure we were happy.Beds and wardrobes were taken apart and put back together without a problem.Also a very long and heavy sideboard was dealt with swiftly.I never thought that thing can be dismantelled but it was not a problem for them.
I would definitely use again and recommend them.

A big Thank You to everyone at City Removals involved in making our moving day that almost made the whole thing go unoticed.Starting with the men that did all the hard work and all the heavy lifting and finishing off with Nicola who was so professiknal and friendly during her assesment and Alex who always answerred oir queries and dealt with the council in organizing the parking.
Everyone was extremely friendly and eo willing to help.We felt very well looked after and we felt they have done everything to make things as easy As possible for us.I think more people should know about them and other removal companies should take a note or two out of their book.
We were recommended to this company by a friend who used them almost a year ago and clearly I can now see why he told us to give them a try.
A very good and honest service and some of the best monney we spent in the whole moving and buying process.

These guys arrived early, took our stuff away very professionally using specialised bags for the couches, shrink wrapping the wooden stuff etc. Bit of a hiccough when I rang a week ahead and said I thought I may need a second van  (would have been good if someone offered to come and estimate what was required) and the price went from £320 for a van and two people to £790 for two vans and three people! I pointed out the stupidity of this to the girl on the phone who then rechecked with her estimator who then confirmed that the price was correct but that they would on this occasion charge £720! I booked them for 0930, they arrived early and got on with it. They drove straight to our new place and loaded everything in very quickly, offering to hook up TV's etc. Best of all they got our super king bed up a low staircase and into our bedroom without issue. That can't have been easy. They assembled the bed as well. I think the best thing I can say is that I don't tip very often and I gave these guys a score each as I was genuinely impressed with their work. They came to us WOM from a colleague of my wife's who used them after doing a lot of research on the subject. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Not much to say.A pretty small move that was completed in under 6 hours.The 2 men were probably eastern european but both spoke english and were highly skilled.They came on time at 08:00 AM and after we showed them around they got on with it. We also had a good experience with the office during the booking process.The quote was very clear and most importantly had no hidden charges.What we agreed with them before is what we paid on the day. We also had an hourly rate option but for the sake of our piece of mind we chose the fixed price, which in the end worked out about the same. We also gave the crew some unwanted furniture which they took away to the dump for a small fee. I would sugest to anyone that needs moving services to do their homework and research more companies.There are plenty of cowboys out there,especially in the removals industry and you do not want to be left high and dry on your moving day.                                                                                                                                                        .
