Great moving experience!

Just moved with Bolt again on Sunday and I've had yet another 5 star experience. I have used their services for every move for the past few years and they are great every time. The team were very professional and handled all of my belongings with a lot of care. This company gives great service constantly and take all the stress of moving away. Thank you guys!

Bolt Removals.

Bolt Removals provided us with outstanding service and value for money. Julian and his team worked tirelessly to pack and move our belongings over two days. Their service extended to dismantling and rebuilding a large wardrobe that did not want to fit through one of our new doorways – this was beyond my expectations. The piano even kept its tune! The whole team were polite, helpful and conscientious. I definitely recommend this firm to anyone who cares about their possessions as well as their wallet!

Recent house move.

We chose Bolt Removals as a friend had had them last year and was impressed with them. I cannot agree more Julian and his team were prompt, polite, friendly, and so hard working, they could not have done any more. They came over two days as we had a lot of garden statues and furniture on the first day and then the house move on the second. When we move again we will not hesitate to use this company they were outstanding.

Bolt removal Cardiff.

We hired Bolt removals in Cardiff for our down size move.
Mr Julian Popa the Managing Director came to the house to assess the request. He was very professional and very helpful. He came in with shoe protectors so as not to damage any carpets.
He listened to everything we said that was going and not. He went through every room and outside.
He email me the quote in hours with various options that suited us.
On the day they showed up on time and started with mats down to protect the floors for moving everything.
Everything was moved carefully and delivered safely into the new house.
I would strongly recommend this company to anyone who is looking to move and have some of the stress of moving removed by them.
Paul.

Bolt removals professional excellent team.

Professional team, I had a few quotes from removal firms I found Julian the most professional. The team arrived on time Stefan, Gabriel and Alin, they were brilliant, worked tirelessly, were professional, patient and supportive despite a number of problems, none of their doing. Arrived at 8am, house packed by 11am, there was a delay until 1.30pm not the teams fault. The house not being ready as the previous owner did not leave until 6pm, they worked over time to get us in and remained calm and professional, the whole time.
Definitely highly recommend exceptional team of hard working people. Thank you all so much.

Excellent service.

Bolt Removals moved my house contents into storage in Cardiff, looked after it for a year, and moved it all to my new home in Aberystwyth. Very professional company, always reply promptly if I had a query and the staff were friendly and very efficient.
They put my beds, sofa and dining table back together before they left.
I highly recommend them. They were in turn recommended to me by a work colleague after a local large company let me down. I am so happy with their excellent service and professionalism.

Superb service!

I can't rate these guys highly enough. A very competitive quote and a friendly and hard working crew. It was very short notice with less than 48 hours from Julian's visit for a survey and quote to Gabriel, Joshua and Moses beginning to load the van. With a move from a second floor flat to a third floor flat - and no lifts - my only regret is that I could only afford to tip them a fraction of what they deserved.

Great moving company.

Julian and his team are truly excellent. We used their full service (packing & moving) to get us from Barry to Cowbridge in South Wales. The most obvious quality you’ll immediately find is how professional they are. From my initial meeting with Julian to the packing day and then final moving day they were all extremely polite and hard working and efficient. We have moved internationally before (Australia) using a multi national company (Crown) and whilst they were good too, they didn’t come close to the overall care and attention Julian and his team take. We invited 6 removal companies to quote us and I knew straight away I’d be offering the job to Julian. I honestly can’t recommend them enough.
Thank you Julian & the team.

Excellent Service.

We chose to use Bolt Removals having had quotes from a number of companies. Bolt was by far the cheapest quote and despite other companies trying to persuade us that the service would not be as good, we decided to go ahead with Bolt. This was the best decision we made as they were excellent! I found myself standing around on the day with nothing to do as they were so professional and took care of everything. Both men were extremely careful with all our possessions, covering sofas and televisions and nothing was too much hassle for them. We were moving 65 miles from Cardiff to Carmarthen and they got to the new address before us. All items were removed from the vans to exactly where we needed them in the house and we could not believe how proficient they were at their job.
The responses when booking were quick and clear and I would use Bolt with no hesitation if we were to move again. Highly recommended! Thanks for making the day easy and stress free.

Great Service at a Great Price.

Really happy with both the packing and moving service provided by Bolt. We had the full packing service for our large two bed flat, moving to a five bed house. As previous reviewers have said, they offered the best value quote, but the professionalism through the booking process assured me of the quality. They were really efficient, and friendly and trustworthy on the day. Would recommend and use again.

Long-distance move from Newport, Gwent to Cardiff, South Glamorgan

House move.

Bolt Removals were brilliant with our move. Julian came to our house to assess how much we had to move and how many vans it would take. He was polite and honest and gave a great price (I had two other quotes from different companies). I went with Bolt because they seemed the most professional at a great price.
On the moving day two vans and two gentlemen arrived promptly and they literally did everything in a professional and calm manner. They are obviously very experienced in the way they packed the van and knew what to place where for maximum room. They didn’t stop until it was all done and then drove to our new house and unloaded our possessions into the rooms we specified on the boxes. All our goods were intact, no breakages.
They were quiet, polite, calm and friendly throughout and I would highly recommend them to anyone considering a removal company.

Service cost: £510

Long-distance move from Glamorgan to West Sussex

Fantastic service from start to finish.

Delighted to recommend Bolt Removals. They were excellent. We moved on March 13th 2020 from Cardiff to West Sussex.

We chose Bolt ahead of two other quotes - value for money, professionalism and rapport stood out. Great communication in the lead up to the day, with good prices on packaging materials.

Prompt arrival for removal, friendly guys - who were amazing. So fast, efficient and capable. Managed to unload the whole lorry into correct rooms in less than an hour!

Thanks Bolt for a totally stress free experience.

Long-distance move from Gwent to South Glamorgan

Fantastic Service!

Bolt Removals were absolutely fantastic throughout our move. They turned up on time and simply got on with the job whilst being polite and friendly.

They were extremely efficient and patient whilst waiting for the approval to collect the keys from the new house.

Once at the new house, they moved swiftly to unpack everything into the suitable rooms including rebuilding our bed.

Fantastic from start to finish, thank you Bolt!

Long-distance move from Cardiff, South Glamorgan to Beccles, Suffolk

Fantastic!

Had a fantastic move with Bolt, can't fault it at all. Communication before the move was fantastic. On the day they turned up exactly on time, and took real care with packing our furniture and boxes into the van. At the other end they took real care making sure we got things put in the right rooms. Would definitely recommend, and great value for money too.

Long-distance move from Glamorgan to Glamorgan

Moving house in a pandemic.

If you move house in exceptional times, you need an exceptional removal firm. Bolt Removals tick all the necessary boxes and more - knowledgeable, efficient, reasonably priced and above all reliable - having direct access to the owner is a real plus. Moving on the hottest day of the year tested them to the full and they passed with flying colours. I would use them again without hesitation.

Long-distance move from Newport, Gwent to Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire

Move from Newport to Pembrokeshire.

From start to finish Bolt is a very professional company to deal with. Julian was very pleasant and helpful when producing our quotation. The removal team were very hard working, obliging, pleasant and professional as well as being quick and efficient. The whole team made our move as stress free as it could possibly be. Very competitive price. Have used bigger well known companies previously which are more expensive and in my experience not as good on moving day. Highly recommend this company.

Long-distance move from United Kingdom to Mid Glamorgan

Would highly recommend

We were extremely happy with the service Bolt removals provided. We used their online calculator which was easy and they responded with a call straight away. The removal men were on time in the morning and worked extremely hard emptying the house. They were polite and friendly and took great care of our possessions. We had a delay moving into our new home and Bolt were very patient and didn’t complain once. I would highly recommend Bolt removals, great service and at a very reasonable price.

Long-distance move from Cardiff, South Glamorgan to Truro, Cornwall

House Move

We have just had a split move (with storage) to our new home. We were badly let down by another company and Bolt Removals stepped in at very short notice to save the day. We can't praise Julian and his brilliant team highly enough. They were reliable, efficient, polite and nothing was too difficult - despite some large and heavy furniture items and difficult access. We have moved frequently over the years and would recommend Bolt Removals without hesitation - one of the very best.

Long-distance move from Mid Glamorgan to Vale of Glamorgan

Highly Recommendable Company

I used their service for Disassembly/Reassembly, Packing/Unpacking and a transport of 30 miles. It was perfect. They deal with all my stuff in a 3 Bedroom house in only one day, very efficiently and carefully, using 3 trucks and 4 professionals.

They were very nice and attentive to details.

I think it is the best Quality/Price for this sort of service in the Area,

I recommend highly this company and reuse it next time I move.

Long-distance move from Southend-on-Sea, Essex to Swansea, West Glamorgan

Brilliant Removals

Julian and the team were fantastic from start to finish. Highly responsive in the initial booking process to understand our needs and always quick to reply with any questions. On removal day the team arrived on time to the very minute and after a quick walk around the property got to work with the removals.

The entire team were so highly efficient, helpful and brilliant. They really made the move much less stressful and with a 250 mile move it was a long day for them but they were all highly professional and just got on with the job at hand. I'd happily use Bolt again and recommend them to family and friends. Thank you!

Long-distance move from Glamorgan to Gwent

Fantastic service from Christian and Dani!

Our initial call with them was fantastic. They were very friendly and answered our many questions. Compared to other providers, they offered a competitive price and were a lot more polite and detailed in their customer service approach. They were punctual in their arrival on the actual moving day and started working straight away. They were kind, professional, helpful and patient with our many requests. They disassembled everything with extraordinary speed and managed to vacate our flat in record time. When arriving in our new home, they took care not to obstruct traffic too much and unpacked everything as quickly as they could. They took extreme care with all of our items and ensured everything was properly and securely packaged. Everything arrived in pristine condition and they reassembled all our furniture with great care. Could not recommend them enough!

So happy with the service I received from Bolt Removals. Julian was fantastic dealing with the initial enquiry and the quote which was very reasonable.

His 2 lads on the day Fabian and Nico were brilliant. So helpful and friendly and went above and beyond. I was so impressed with the service I received.
