      Long distance removal Sussex to Cornwall

      Just before Covid struck in 2020 we were preparing to make this huge move. Having got some estimates we chose Britannia Beckwith and are so glad we did. We decided to go with the full packing service and although we have a lot of things, it wasn't long until the biggest lorry available was fully loaded and we were spending our last night at our old house. In the morning we set off in our car and were kept fully advised where the lorry was at all times and in fact they beat us there! The unloading was just as smooth. All the operatives were efficient, helpful, polite and felt like members of the family by the end of it.

      Move

      Absolutely fantastic company. From first contact they were totally professional. Mark and CJ loaded and delivered our furniture at the arranged time, and handled everything very .carefully. They never complained about anything and asked if we needed anything else before they left. If you are looking for a moving company who knows what they are doing, and who will handle your possessions with care then I highly recommend Britannia Beckwith in Newhaven.They may not be the cheapest but you get what you pay forin service and professionalism.

      Local move within Hove.

      Our move date kept changing through no fault of our own but Britannia staff were very understanding.

      We had the packing done for us by Rob the day before the move and on moving day, Rob and his team did an excellent job. They were very careful with everything especially our grandfather clock.

      Also importantly, they have collected all the empty boxes.

      Overall a very good service, we would definitely recommend them.

      House move

      We used Britannia Beckwith for our move from East Sussex to Mid Sussex. Although our move date changed a couple of times the removal firm were able to accommodate our requirements. The employees on the day before (pre-packing) and on the day of the move were all excellent. They were efficient, courteous and careful all day. Given that a couple of weeks later we are still unpacking boxes we are so glad we chose a company to help with our move and feel Britannia Beckwith were excellent value for money. I would definitely recommend them to anyone considering a house move.

      A really efficient company with a hard working and cheerful team and reasonable price for the work. Everything was packed up for us and moved without any drama or breakages.

      Move locally in Eastbourne

      An extremely courteous, helpful and skilled team. They took great care over everything. We had the packing service and all our goods were securely dispatched. The transport was modern. We moved to our new house which had light coloured carpets. The crew took great care - especially when it started to rain. Dismantled beds were expertly reassembled and furniture delivered to the correct rooms. The crew had good team spirit.

    • Britannia did a superb job with packing and moving us.

      Poor service

      Having used this company a few years ago and finding them excellent I decided to use them again. The service this time was extremely poor, the attitude of the site manager was rude, dismissive and everything was a problem. They didn't deliver on the service paid for, beds were not dismantled and reassembled as paid for, garden furniture was not moved as paid for as they decided on the day they didn't have room so we had to do it ourselves. There was pressure to sign the documentation (they waited until my husband had left to collect some nuts and bolts for the beds that they had not deconstructed properly at the old property) despite being dissatisfied by the service. I complained to the management but to date I have not had any response. Items were not placed in the correct rooms and many chips to items on inspection after. Most of the time I felt we were an imposition when they moved us from West Sussex to East Sussex despite having paid a significant sum for their service. Avoid, this company charges high and delivers low, a real shame as they used to be great.

    • one item was discovered to be missing.

      Loss of item in move - resolved

      The move was the second part of a move done by the same company to storage about 15 months ago. The first part was perfect. The second part also the same, until one item was discovered to be missing. It had a value slightly in excess of £100, and I completed the insurance claim - the whole consignment was valued at £8,000 for insurance purposes. That claim has been dismissed as the insurer spoke to the removal team who claimed the item "...was not sighted."

      So folks. Use the company by all means. Just don't bother with the insurance which refuses to pay out. The customer definitely does NOT come first.

      Since this, Beckwith intervened, and the insurers paid out my claim. So it is 5 stars to Beckwith and 1 star to the insurers.
