Long-distance move from Greater London to Vale of Glamorgan

Careful, communicative, efficient

I was impressed that they were the only company who we'd contacted for a quote who came to visit our property and assess the amount of furniture and possessions we had to move. They gave us a competitive quote and as Krystian could not have been more helpful we felt we could trust him with the job.

On the day of the move they were prompt, efficient with the load, and very careful with the furniture, wrapping the larger items to avoid any damage. They dismantled wardrobes and put them up at the other end. Nothing was damaged in the move (unlike the removal company I used 4 months ago!)

I would absolutely recommend this company. Superb movers.

Move size: 1 Bedroom Flat Service cost: £700

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

Excellent Packing and Removal service.

Krystian and his team were all excellent throughout the process of moving. They turned up on time and efficiently packed the entire contents of our flat up the day before we moved, and were similarly efficient when it came to loading up the vans on removal day.

We were, unfortunately, scuppered in our attempt to move in on time due to a delay in the Seller moving out by a couple of hours but the guysremained patient throughout. They managed to unload two vans worth of items in about three hours and all of our items were well looked after including fragile contents.

I would thoroughly recommend the guys to anyone looking to move.

Service cost: £900

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

Not enough men.

The guys worked hard but we were expecting 3-4 men and got two. As a result we had to help out and left the property late.

Service cost: £980

Official company response

Dear Karen,

I am sorry to hear you had a bad experience. Unfortunately I cannot find this move at all. Are you sure it was us that moved you or maybe another company with similar name?

Kind regards,
Krystian Tusinski.

Could not ask for better.

Having just been let down by Taha Removals I was frantically searching for a company which could help me at very short notice. Luckily, I came across Thames Removals on the Which magazine trusted trader website. Krystian and Peter could not have been better (or nicer). They slaved away until the job was done, worked very fast and efficiently whilst being very careful with my belongings. I had some fragile items such as glass shower screens etc and it all arrived at the new place without the tiniest damage. They said that they enjoyed their job and that actually came across. I really could not have asked for better. Whilst their hourly rate might be slightly higher than others (I know Taha are cheaper) they work twice as fast and thus are cheaper in the end. I know it shouldn’t really matter but the fact that they are such nice men did also help a lot and put me at ease at a potentially stressful time. I’d have them back any day.

Removal.

It was the second time we used Thames Removal and still very happy with the service. They are super friendly, polite guys that work hard and get the job done with a smile on their face - even despite a tricky move to a flat on the 4th floor with no lift. They were cheerful right until the end of the day and did not leave us until they were certain we were 100% happy. We paid the agreed price with no issues. Very professional, smooth service that I would strongly recommend!

Service cost: £470

Superb. Use these guys.

If you want to move home with professionals then use Thames Removals. They know their job, and do it very well. Any concern I had about the move were quickly annulled when they took me through the process.
The team were efficient, polite, and considerate. Everything arrived as it should, with furniture as emblem without even asking.
If I need to shift stuff again Thames Removals are for me.

Service cost: £350

Thanks for the help !

We have used their services in the past and have continued to be impressed with their professionalism throughout the move. Despite the short notice, they were able to arrange a convenient day and time to work on this move.

They made our move stress free and as smooth as possible. They were friendly, well prepared and super-efficient throughout the move. They also helped us with dissembling and reassembling most of the heavy furniture without leaving a single mark. Great work as always and will definitely use them again.

We would highly recommend them !

Excellent Removal Service.

We used Thames Removals at the beginning of November and were very impressed by their service and professionalism. Krystian was very responsive and able to fit us in despite a change in our dates. On the day they packed everything very well and in an efficient manner. They were polite, friendly and accommodating. They carried out the move with expert professionalism and did all they could to make the move smooth. We were slightly delayed in collecting our keys but they remained patient and smiling right to the very end late that evening. I have recommended them to my family and friends and would definitely use their services again in any future move.

Removal of furniture and boxes from storage to new home.

Second time using Thames Removals. First time was to move out of a 2-bed flat into storage. This time it was to move out of storage into a house. Great service from a courteous pair of guys! Very careful when moving furniture. Everything was packed into the lorry carefully. Care was taken not to damage walls or furniture during move. Was happy to move boxes and furniture and place them in the correct rooms!

Service cost: £180

Best possible experience.

Kind, courteous, decent people, and hard workers - I highly recommend this company especially Kamil and Krystian who moved both me and my stuff to Brighton from East London. On quite a stressful day for myself they made it much less so by their relaxed yet constructive approach to any problems (like with restricted parking). Rather than complain or get impatient they just tried to help me. They made me feel very comfortable and I trusted and liked them a lot. Will definitely tell family and friends to use them.

Service cost: £460
