Cavendish & Country Removals and Storage

Cavendish & Country just recently moved us from a flat to a house in SW London and we were very happy with them. Nothing broken, nothing gone and a charming team of guys. I think perhaps Nick had slightly under estimated the size of the job as they ended up moving us for 13 hours and we had to go back another day for furniture in a storage unit as it wouldn't fit in the van/was going to be too late in the evening. That said, the guys worked tirelessly the whole day and we'd thoroughly recommend as well as definitely use them again.

My family and I moved from New York to Geneva and needed our London storage sent to our new house in Geneva. Given that we had just completed one complicated international move, the thought of going through more moving hassle didn't appeal!  I contacted Cavendish and Country for a quote as they had been recommended to me by a friend in London.. the quote came in very quickly and competitively and so I went with them.  From the quotation process (quickly dealt with by Nick), to dealing with the customs paperwork (Switzerland is not the easiest place to get your stuff into!), to arranging a time for delivery (taking into account said customs), C & C were spot on and made everything very straightforward.  I would highly recommend them to anyone considering an international move as it's great to know that during a stressful time there is at least one job that you can hand over to someone else and not have to worry. Keep up the good work guys. Matt H.

Cavendish & Country made our move feel completely seamless - we were incredibly impressed with the professionalism of Nick and the team. Everyone was friendly, competent and calm at a time which is frankly a tad stressful.They were punctual, very careful with all our belongings, worked incredibly hard and the team were very polite too; we felt like nothing was too much bother when both packing and unpacking. Having got three or four quotes, I found their pricing to be very competitive as well. Were I to move again, I would not hesitate to book Cavendish & Country. .

Cavendish & Country were excellent, very professional and reliable. We moved from a house in Kingston to a property in SW13. Nick came around with very short notice and we were provided with a clear and competitive quote for the date we wished to move. The removal guys were very professional and did a fantastic job, very careful with our belongings and our newly decorated house. They were very flexible and didn’t mind to move our heavy sofa around a couple of times! We would highly recommend Nick and his team to anyone we know who is moving.

We were moving house within Putney, and although the distance was small, the move felt quite daunting as my husband and I both work full time and had busy travelling schedules.  Nick came round at short notice and gave us a comprehensive and competitive quote.  We felt we were in safe hands immediately.  We opted for Nick and his team to do a full packing and removal service for us over 2 days.  One Day 1, Nick's team arrived on time and were very professional, friendly and trustworthy.  By the time I returned from work that day it was truly impressive to see how much they had packed up, and also the great care they had taken in packing all of our items so carefully and neatly.  On Day 2, Nick's team arrived on time to finish the final packing and loading of the van and then we were off to the new house.  Once there, it felt as though nothing was too much trouble for this team - they even helped my father unload a very full car of boxes he had brought separately from another property.  Nick's team operate efficiently as a team, are always curteous and were careful to ensure all furniture was placed where we requested.  They also have a great sense of humour which made the moving process stress free and a fun day for us. I would recommend this team without hesitation!

A hugely professional service from Cavendish and Country for our move from Weybridge to Walton. Cavendish were able to accommodate our uncertain move date even though we only had 10 days between exchange and completion.
They made the experience very painless, packing up all our belongings very well, nothing was damaged or lost. All we had to do was sit back and watch. They even coped admirably moving the contents of a garage that was 50% of the size of the house, and a large number of pot plants.
The after move service was equally as good as the move day itself. Cavendish called me up to agree a time to come and collect the boxes, they actually turned up at the agreed time, and then they called me up to get my bank details so they could pay me the 'box return' refund. It would have been very easy for them to let me arrange it all - but that is not the way Cavendish and Country work.

On moving day, the C&C team, who looked like World's Strongest Man contestants, turned up, bang on time. To a man, they were friendly, polite and extremely professional. They packed the house with Germanic efficiency, taking great care to wrap & pack each item, as if it was their own. On arrival at the new house, everything was put in the right rooms, the bulky furniture was reassembled and they went to great lengths to ensure we were entirely happy. Throughout the move, there were no problems, only solutions, and they left still smiling, as they had been when they arrived.
What more could you want ?! .

We had our removal done by Cavendish and Country, based on reviews found on the internet and our meeting with Nick Whittington for the quote. We had a great experience and we would definitely recommend them.

Nick Whittington has a great entrepreneurial spirit and has managed to built a strong team of movers. All the people who did our move knew each other and work perfectly together in a great team spirit. They were not people hired for the day but employees of Cavendish and Country, which is not always the case for other removal firms. The entire team was very friendly, well mannered/educated and very careful.

The removal was done over two days: a team of two on a Sunday for the packing of Fragile items and furniture (we packed our clothes, books, etc..) and a first truck was loaded. A team of four on the Monday to finish packing and moving furniture in another truck. Both trucks delivered our content the same day.

We have done 12 moves in 17 years and have used many removal companies. Cavendish and Country was clearly the best.

Service cost: £1830

We were very pleased with the highly organised & professional manner with which Cavendish & Country organised our move. Nick provided a very clear & detailed initial quotation, Clare in the office was very helpful & reassuring & the delivery team themselves were excellent.

The team leader was extremely polite & courteous at all times & constantly made sure we were happy with how things were progressing. The 4 man team worked tirelessly for 2 days to pack & move our belongings.

Thank you to the removal guys for making the whole process as smooth as possible & delivering on what you promised.

This is an excellent & professional company & I will be recommending Cavendish & Country to my family & friends.

Seriously, I have never been so happy to review a service as this. Spoke with Nick and gave him a rough idea of what was being collected from London and delivered to Wales and then other items collected from Wales and delivered to London. Nick was thorough and suggested exactly what I required. 3 men and a 7.5t lorry. he certainly knows his stuff, he was spot on. Price was extremely competitive, service was exceptional. Good work guys! Would I use them again, yes definitely, would I recommend them, 100%. I can not thank them enough for all they did, they worked so very very hard. In the middle of it all, Nick even popped in to see that everything was going well. What more can you ask for. Seriously the best money I have spent in years. I had some seriously large items and nothing was a problem for these guys.

Service cost: £1400

Cavendish and Country were amazing, moving us from London to Northamptonshire, everything was packed quickly and efficiently and labelled carefully. They guys were charming and polite. Everything was unloaded into our new home with care - they even had to take a door off to get one of our large sofas into our new snug. I couldn't praise this company enough and would recommend to anyone - for once a company that does exactly what it say's on the tin - Thank you.

Service cost: £1800

We had a quote from Nick who was very professional during his visit and reassuring. Clare at the office was always quick with her responses to any questions I had, and to be honest the packing service made moving house nowhere near as stressful as I had imagined. The guys were efficient, worked well to our requirements and everything came over to the new house safely. They didn't bat an eyelid when, inevitably, we were not as prepared as we should have been, or when I changed my mind about where things should go in the new house which, to me, shows how professional they are as a team.
Thank you so much for making moving so easy, I would highly recommend this company even if the cost is slightly higher than competitors.

Cavendish & Country were simply excellent. From Simon's assessment to the wonderful crew of three who packed up everything and transported it to my new home everything was done as requested and on time. With only a week's notice they could do the dates I needed. The crew were friendly, nice and incredibly efficient and hard-working (and calm - always useful when you're the stressed mover!) They happily dismantled the bed and wardrobe and re-assembled them at the new house without any damage or problems. Fragile items were carefully packed and all arrived safe and sound. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cavendish & Country to family/friends and will definitely use them again myself.

Honestly, C&C exceeded our expectations and managed to make a potentially stressful move with two young kids in a flat with lots of clutter appear seamless.
Firstly, Nick was a pleasure to do business with and his understanding and flexibility was thoroughly appreciated. He kept me up-to-date with developments and was utterly professional in all our dealings.
The move was perfectly masterminded by Stefan and Gabor. They methodically removed and packed all the boxes in such a tidy way and were a pleasure to be around. They were very diligent in transfering the items to our new property and we really appreciate their care and attention to detail with how they treated our new place - a very human and professional touch. It was hard work for them but they did their jobs so well and always with a smile on their faces - really a pleasure to have them orchestrate a very stressful move and were always in control of the situation.
C&C have a great formula here with Nick and these guys - I hope future customers have the same experience that we have had. Their service is not cheap (the most expensive quote we received) - however you really get what you pay for and we would repeat it 100 times again.
Thanks again,
Hari & Joanna.

We were very happy with Cavendish. From the start till the end. The guys arrived in time on both days, they worked quickly, very efficient, professionally done, and also nice guys on the days of the moving, which is also important. Clean and neat working, no damage. Also when finished in the house on both days, all was stored away, and left the house without any rubish. All our things were very well packed and good advice as we needed it at a certain moment and therefore flexible. Also the sales and aftersales are well done. Received a call after day 1 which is nice to know that they think about you. On second day again. After the moving a good follow up. Definitely recomment Cavendish and Country!

We used Cavendish & Country for our move - from a four bed house to a four bed house - so it was a big move - and we have two kids. From the very first meeting they were by far the most professional company that quoted. Their pricing is very fair by comparison and their service was excellent. They turned up on time, the team were exceptional; they worked fast and efficiently. They were so patient with our kids and worked alongside other things that were happening (dishwasher being fitted, new beds delivered etc!). They were knowledgable and advised us on furniture placement when we got ot the new place (what would fit and what wouldn't) and nothing was a problem. It was really a great experience and exactly the kind of team you need when doing something as stressful as moving home! .

Service cost: £1136

Nick was very honest and professional in his approach talking through how he would handle all aspects of the move including handling fine china, glass and delicate antique furniture pieces. The team were very hard working and got the job done in the time they said they would. They were asking for guidance on where to put items as necessary and taking extra items back into storage for us. Nick and his team are reliable and trustworthy with an excellent all round approach.

Was very impressed with the team at Cavendish&Country during all contacts; from the initial visit and quote through to the packing and moving days. The team made my move so easy and relaxing!

I took advantage of the packing service which meant no annual leave was required to move and no need to live surrounded by boxes for weeks before the move. This was an excellent decision - the removals team did great job and were very quick and considerate and labelled everything clearly making it really easy to unpack and settle in to my new home.

When I arrived the new house was spotless, super impressive given the terrible rainy weather!

I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know who is moving.

Cavendish and country provided an excellent removals service for our recent move. We have three young children and busy lives but they made our move as stress free as it possibly could be. They were very efficient, arrived on time and packed everything amazingly quickly and carefully in clearly labelled boxes which we really needed with all the stuff we have. The team were very courteous and made sure to check exactly what our requirements were. The move was really seamless and made far easier by Nick Whittington and his fantastic team. I would definitely recommend them.
