Caledonian Moving & Storage

WARNING - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY Before using this company I urge you to look at the number of court actions and claims against them. I also suggest you visit their premises to see how poorly run an operation this is - customer items discarded and lying all around the warehouse, evidence of damaged furniture in skips. They are a totally dishonest and unscrupulous company. Do not believe anything they say to you. They have failed to return items from storage (totalling several thousands of pounds), have consistently lied when contacted by police and lawyers, and have failed to defend actions in court. They also do not hold the insurance they claim despite customers paying extra for it so any damage/theft is unprotected.

Service cost: £2500

I can only agree with all the one star reviews already posted. Packing and pick up and delivery to local address fine. The problems all relate to items in storage and then delivery. Moving is a stressful time but Mr David Howie and his company only added to that by: 1. Not storing items in sealed containers as initially told 2. Not delivering the full load until 3 weeks later,  after many frustrating phone calls made. One whole container missing!! 3. Total lack of curtesy, excuse after excuse why we had not received goods 4. They got another company to deliver our goods which turned out OK but to date have still to be informed by Mr Howie that this was happening. Only got details of delivery by phoning the other company ourselves. 5. Still at least one box missing as weeks later I am remembering items that were put into storage. If this company cannot cope with storing goods as promised by Mr Jim Howie then they should not be offering this service. Would NOT recommend this company to anybody as would not want other people to experience this shambolic service.

Guys were fantastic. Turned up on time. Think there was more stuff than they expected however they worked extremely hard the whole day. They never even stopped for lunch ( I went and got them something which they ate on the move ) There was not enough room to get the lorry up the drive so they carried everything from the end of the road. I think they were glad to see the job finished to be honest but they never complained once and were always extremely helpful. They were well worth the money, a very resonable price too.

Whole move couldn't have gone better, carefully planned and well executed. Jim visited me to survey at my old house in Bearsden and an hour later I got a quote through from David. I booked the move the following day and in the three weeks before they removal guys were due out David dropped me regular emails to see if I needed anything. The removal guys were also very helpful, they dismantled my bed which I had told Jim I would do, and put it together at the other end which was a great help. I had over 100 boxes, and they arranged for a local company (I moved down South) to collect all the empty boxes yesterday. These guys run like clockwork.

Got this company November 2015.. What a disaster complete joke.. AVOID AVOID AVOID.. Bunch of cowboys.. missing items goods damaged . Worst experience I have had with a moving company. Ignored our calls when trying to get our missing items back and when they did try to return our items were so badly damaged we had to put them in the bin.. They also tried to give us other peoples items.. DISHONEST,UNRELIABLE, THIEVING CHEATS.. Definitely not professional.. After six months still discovering lots of items missing.. The pictures on the website are nothing like what will actually turn up at your door.. It's all a big con.. please do not get involved with this company.. Caledonian removers and storage.. Lots of items came back damaged but they don't care.. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE..

So disappointed our goods have been damaged and although being told we would get our tables back after repairs are carried out and compensation for the missing and damaged items. We have heard nothing. I am fed up chasing this up with them and the next step is Citizens Advice. I think they are avoiding our calls. Don't book, sorry they are just a bunch of cowboys.
We have waited over 5 weeks now and had to go and buy a new dining room table as we couldn't wait any longer to get our one back.
