      Amazing Service and Cost!!!

      Nicholas and his team were simply amazing. They arrived right on time and worked non-stop until the job was finished later in the day, without even taking a lunch break.

      They were extremely professional, friendly and helpful throughout. Honestly, it’s probably the first time my IKEA furniture has been assembled better than when it was originally installed!

      Their quote was also one of the most competitive I received, making the service excellent value for money.

      I’ll definitely be using them again. Highly recommended. Top service!

    • They were very professional and took great care of the furniture and the boxes.

      Great team!

      Great service from start to finish. The office team were very helpful and provided clear detailed packing instruction and patiently answering all my silly questions. Thank you team!

      The team arrived on time and got straight to work. They were very professional and took great care of the furniture and the boxes. I spent the morning sipping a Starbucks and watching the satisfying sight of three floors' worth of belongings being expertly packed and somehow fitted into two vans. I definitely couldn't have done it myself.

      I had loads of plants and I was worried they will get damaged in transit, but everything was in perfect condition. Moving day as part of a chain is stressful, but the team made sure the removals were the least stressful part of it all.

      House move - highly recommend!

      Bolt were excellent throughout. Customer service during the quote stage was fantastic, with the breakdown of costs clearly explained and absolutely no pressure to accept. The team on the moving day were amazing. On time and efficient, they packed everything up quickly and carefully. Professional throughout, and incredibly kind to me on what was an incredibly difficult day. Unpacking was also seamless, despite a wait for keys and terrible weather - everything put where I wanted, and frequent check-ins on where things should go if it wasn't clear. I would absolutely recommend them!

      First class removal team!!

      Bolt Removals were frankly amazing from start to finish. From the initial visit, quote and information pack, to the packing boxes and packing material, ongoing dialogue as completion dates changing to the move day itself. Now to the move, the guys turned up bang on time ordered logistics for the day and were incredibly polite and professional. The stress of the of day got pretty hectic due to vendor's solicitor being worse than useless...and finally receiving keys 3 hours later than we should have. Bolt Removals were patient and professional throughout when we arrived to find the vendor had only half moved out! I myself worked for 2 hours helping the vendor move the last of his unpacked 'stuff' out while Bolt worked around him! The guys were superb throughout and finished the job in the dark, again polite, professional and good humoured which is everything yiu need on a stressful move day. Couldn't rate Bolt more highly!

      Removals

      From start to finish they were great.Assessment for moving our 3 bedroom has was conducted over video call and an estimate was received the next day. It was very reasonable and on a par with other local companies that couldn't accommodate our original moving date. The date subsequently changed 3 times but they had no problem in moving our date.

      They arrived promptly at 8 in the morning as agreed. The 3 guys who did the move were polite, friendly, and very professional. Nothing was too much trouble.

      At the other end, they arrived within 20 minutes of us collecting the keys and had us unloaded promptly.

      All in all it was a great service and we would have no hesitation in recommending this company.

      House move

      We were absolutely delighted with the service we received from Bolt Removals. From the highly competitive quote (that included extras compared with other companies) to the professional, friendly service that was excellent at every stage. Our move was undertaken over two days with a partial packing on day one and full move on day two. The team were careful with fragile items and considerate with our valued items. One point of constructive feedback - items being packed by them could have more detailed labelling on the box. A single K for kitchen led to quite a bit of confusion when there are multiple boxes.

      All Bolt staff, from the office to operational were professional, engaging, affable and hard working.

    • Prices were very competitive too

Absolutely exceptional. They packed up our entire house, so efficiently on day 1. Then did the same with furniture day 2 before taking it all to our new property. They were personable, considerate & confident, making our move so much easier & taking the stress away that always comes with moves. Could not recommend more highly.

The Bolt removal team were brilliant from start to finish.

Every question I had was answered before the move - the move took place over 2 days and the team were really great.

Took a great deal of care and were a pleasure to have them help us move.

If I ever move again (hopefully not) I WILL be using Bolt removals again.

Removal.

The moving was as stress free as possible thanks to the kindness, efficiency and experience of the removal team. From the time Julian gave us his expertise and quote to the last piece of furniture in the new home, I was impressed by the professionalism of the team, they were very helpful, polite and approachable . Adrian and his fellow workers kindly asked where we needed everything to go and dismantle and reassembled wardrobes and tables without any scratch! I would certainly use their service again should I need to. enjoying a cup of coffee whilst they were working (as they suggested) did the trick! It effectively became stress free!
One point: I would recommend asking for special wrapping paper for glassware and plates. I did not particularly needed but it would have been a bonus.

Long-distance move from Cardiff, South Glamorgan to Lincoln, Lincolnshire

Outstanding service.

We moved from Cardiff to Lincolnshire and packed our own belongings. Bolt gave us a very competitive quote. Communications were great-we had the quote on the same day within hours of the survey, he confirmed all the details by email and texted us when he was one hour from the destination. Mr Popa fitted in with all our requirements for day and timing of the move which included having the move on a weekend and leaving Cardiff on a Saturday morning, which most companies would not. He didn't charge extra for having to wait half an hour for us to arrive at the destination to meet him. He and his colleague worked hard, courteously and cheerfully at all times and treated our belongings with great care. Everything arrived intact. All in all it made the move a pleasurable and easy experience and I have no hesitation in recommending this company.

Home Removals (Bolt Removals).

I would HIGHLY recommend Bolt Removals to anyone considering using the company and their services. Julian and his team have been nothing less than professional, helpful and completely exceeded expectations from the initial stage of the process right through to the end. Bolt Removals not only assisted me in the process but effortlessly made what is usually one of the most stressful periods, a smooth transition from one home to another. They packed each and every item with due care and attention. I have used other companies in the past that simply do not compare to Bolt. Would use this company again and recommend to EVERYONE.
