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

Very Good Staff, Very helpul.

Just had the pleasure of using Abracadabra Removals. Such a professional and friendly service. The work men were very friendly and thorough. It really took the stress out of my move and I'm so happy that it went so smoothly. Thy were very punctual, and they had great customer service from start to finish. The staff all had on uniforms. Happy to report that nothing was broken. They packed all my of my property and labelled the boxes. the van was also the right size, so all in all I was impressed with their high level of service

I have already recommended them to my Friends.

Service cost: £1500

Appalling.

Half an hour late. They GUARANTEED could fit everything in (clearly showed them everything that had to go) they couldn't fit a large item in and said they'd have to come back for it (that journey time would cost an extra hour in time and money !) One of the men was chatting away to me instead of working, what could I say? Please stop talking and work? They disappeared for 30 mins between loading & the unloading venue (we left at the same time) to have lunch without telling us. Overcharged us by an hour. I was too afraid to confront two large men in my new house, Mark said tough luck. I also complained that it took them 4.5 hours to load up and yet 1 hour to unload..
Mark guaranteed they'd collect the final item next evening at 6pm..they didn't arrive until 9pm, I had to keep my 7 year old awake as there was no one to babysit, Mark knew this! Then he said he was charging me £95/hour when it was his mens mistake he was meant to fix!..Mark lied & was rude, in the end we used another company, highly recommend! much cheaper, honest, much harder workers, Chris 07943 006 981.

Official company response

This customer likes to make false accusations, we never charged £95 per hour at any point. The item that didn't fit was in a different location and the team had to drive to the mew location to see the item before saying that it didn't fit. We had to finish the removal early due to the rules of the Jewish religion and come back on the second day. There was no promise of time but she was assured that when the removal team finished their first job they would come to her. They finished their job at 8pm and went straight to her, after loading the van with all the items she said she wasn't going to pay and started screaming on the phone to me and her husband was also rude so I told the boys to unload the van and leave the job, I didn't instruct the boys to just unload the van onto the street and leave it there or hold their goods to ransom. I am a very reasonable person but I do not respond to threats or rude behaviour, we have been in business for ten years and if we were as bad as this customer states then there would be many more reviews like this. She has not just wrote a review on this site but on any possible place she can find. I would also like to add that we did provide our services to another family member of hers and she was recommended to us so our service cannot be that bad.

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

A Good Removal Company.

We used Abracadabra Removals to move to London because they moved my friend up to Edinburgh and we met the movers whilst they were moving our friends in and we enjoyed the rapport that we built with them.
They came up helped us pack everything especially the fragile items and then met us in London the next day. Everything got delivered and they even offered to help set things up for us. We didn't take them up on it though.

Service cost: £1600

Avoid!

They made our moving day hell. they turned up 2 hours late having given a range of different excuses depending in who you spoke to at the company. They then couldn't fit our 2 bed flat into the Luton van as they had promised. We had to get a transit can and do 2 further trips.

They wouldn't reduce our fee and ended up not answering our calls when we tried to call to find out why they had added on £20 onto our bill for no reason and with no authorisation.

I would avoid at all costs.

Service cost: £600

Excellent packing and delivery service.

We used Abracadabra removals for a three bed house move. We also got them to pack our stuff.  They were sensible in their approach to packing - very efficient but more than happy to leave items unpacked to the last minute so we could comfortably stay in the property we were moving from overnight! They also moved a piano for us and were extremely careful with it.
The removal men were professional and cheerful throughout the day despite some delays with the sale going through and therefore a bit of a wait at the new property.  We would highly recommend them and I would urge you to look at the reviews on their own website.
They came in significantly cheaper than some other quotes with no difference in quality.

Service cost: £800

Marvellous Removal Company.

Great company, great staff. Really friendly and helpful bunch. We had to move our 5 bedroom house and their guys came in, packed all our stuff and moved it to our new home and even emptied the boxes and took them away. It was really helpful for me because I have a young family. Would definitely recommend.
The removal was well organised over the three days and all I did was make the guys a cup of tea (as requested by Mark when making the booking). .

Service cost: £1800

Great value.

We had a very smooth move thanks to the guys at Abracadabra. Friendly and fun help made the day a total success. I would happily recommend them and use them again. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Box delivery and pick up following the move was a great help.
One of the staff, Wayne, even saved the day by finding a wallet that had fallen from a bag and almost got lost on the day.

All in all, a great experience.

Thanks guys!

Great value & even better team.

Team were helpful, polite and incredibly efficient.   Was only a small move, but everything was made incredibly easy with their presence. Having never used movers before, they made our move into our first home stressless. They handled our possessions with care and were very careful of the new property. It was also a pleasure dealing with such friendly individuals.

Service cost: £200

Very Good Staff, Very helpul.

We moved locally in Borehamwood, and Mark was very helpful in organising a quote for me. Terry came round and looked at the job, after this they gave me the price and I was happy.
Everything went according to plan and we had a good laugh with the movers. I would absolutely recommend Abracadabra Removals to anyone.
There was nothing left behind all of my stuff went into the two vans that arrived with ease and all the furniture was put back together.

Service cost: £1200
