Long-distance move from Bristol, Bristol to Bristol, Bristol

Move in Bristol

The movers arrived in good time and worked efficiently. It turned out we had significantly underestimated the amount of stuff we had to move, meaning they were on site a lot longer than they anticipated, but they got the job done with only a little complaining. They successfully disassembled and reassembled some complex Ikea furniture. There were one or two breakages, but nothing worth getting upset about.

Move size: 4 Bedroom Home Service cost: £1715

Long-distance move from Pembrokeshire to Hampshire

Move: Cardigan to Eastleigh March '21.

On the whole, very good and highly recommended. I would have given 5 stars but had one small gripe in that we'd been scheduled for an 8am start for the move out. That changed on the day before to 9am (which we were told about) but on the day, it became 10:30. There were good reasons apparently but we weren't told and had to find out why we were being left standing around. Having said that, the following day's move in went like clockwork.

Move size: 3 Bedroom Home Service cost: £2723

Long-distance move from South Glamorgan to Greater London

Move: Swansea to London

The move went well and was reasonably stress free. As long as you email them about exceptional items they will do their best to accommodate. Every move causes damage and there were quite a number of minor(ish) dents and scrapes not so much from moving out but the seeming rush to offload. With all that said it was professional. We also took the dismantle/reassemble option which was worth it. Turned up around 8am on both days in the 2-day move. Before the move there was a WhatsApp video call (during lockdown) and in the list for insurance they had itemised almost everything in the house already, though we did not take out the insurance in the end as we did our own packing.

Move size: 3 Bedroom Home Service cost: £2028

The team arrived on the Thursday and did all the breakable packing. They were prompt, polite and worked really hard all day.

On the Friday, the team got us packed up, moves to new house, unpacked and rebuilt the stuff they'd taken apart.

They were great. Thanks to Harry and the team.
