Worst moving company—my belongings were destroyed

Purdie Worldwide absolutely failed in their basic duty to protect my furniture during a move from Glasgow to Dubai. Their packing was so careless that more than half of my belongings were damaged or destroyed.

A fragile coffee table marked "FRAGILE" was given the same inadequate single-layer bubble wrap as everything else and is now useless.

A glass tabletop shattered because it was thrown in without any padding.

My expensive TV was wrapped in only a thin layer of bubble wrap, leaving it chipped and damaged.

They clearly lack the expertise to handle delicate or valuable items. I have photos to prove their incompetence. Even with insurance, I’m left covering significant costs to replace my items. Avoid this company if you value your possessions.

Move size: 1 Bedroom Flat Service cost: £2840

International removal

I have moved quite a lot internationally and not had to make and insurance claim before. But I do now.

I would never use Purdie Worldwide again.

The packing was so so bad. Artwork packed with garden stuff and broken, shoes just scooped up and thrown into boxes. All clothes in boxes rather than wardrobe boxes, all crumbled.

Where they get their accreditation from on their letterheaded paper I do not know.

Do not use them.

Official company response

Hi Marion, thanks for taking the time to write your another review for us. We're very sorry you've had to endure a below standard move. I can assure you that this was an isolated incident, and does not reflect our usual level of service. Fortunately the majority of your goods arrived intact, and it would appear that only a few boxes had been incorrectly packed. As such, the member of staff who failed to pack these boxes correctly, is no longer with us. Thankfully insurance was taken, and this issue has been dealt with in a swift and professional manner. If you have any further questions, please do get in touch.
