Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Faultless removal over weekend.

Can't get over how amazing the team who moved us were. We had 3/4 quotes for packing services varying between £1.6k and £4.6k. we went with the cheapest because of the reviews on here, no premium for Sunday delivery, and Nicole was just as professional as the other companies. They moved a 3 bed house from North London to Surrey in a weekend. All polish team I think, all spoke English, full break down of cots and wardrobes, all put up again in super quick time. Why pay extra for the premium services when these guys do the same job for a sensible price? Complete professionals, showing up 7.30 Sunday morning to load the vans, accomodated my kid's nap times as much as possible, and worked really hard. Would definitely recommend.

Removal.

We had booked this company well in advance.We did our part of research before booking a moving company as we heard a lot of bad stories about the removal industry.It was important to have a reliable a company as we had to vacate our flat by 11AM.
The service was exactly as expected.The crew knocked on our door 30 minutes earlyer but they were wiling to wayt.Also they even had a jobsheet with instructions  and some special request that we have made.
The men were fast and proffessional and at all times they knew what they were doing.I could tell that they were experienced.Our furniture was beatifully wrapped and manouvered with no walls scratched and nothing damaged.The boys managed to load everything by 10:00AM.
Unfortunately  we did not get our keyes untill 03:00PM but they wayted without any complaints.I am sure they did not like it but they behaved proffessionaly.
Also they stuck to the agreed price even though we had slightly more boxes than we thought.
A very good job which was executed proffessionaly and on time.Recommended.

Service cost: £380

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to Leeds, Yorkshire

Outstanding.

We relocated from London to Leeds due to work purposes so the company coverred all the costs with our move.Due to 2 small todlers and a few expensive pieces of furniture we were very carefull in picking the right removal company.After receiving a quote by email we decided to call City Removals to do a home survey.They inmediately accepted this and someone cane the following day.After the visit the price remained unchanged so we decided to book.We agrred on a 2 day removal..the first day load the truxk and the following day deliver.
On the first day two lovely chaps came as agreed at 11:00 am.We showed them thw house gave them a cup of tea and 4 hours later our house was empty.They were extremely carefull and as agreed with the surveyor they used floor protectors and all our furniture was wrapped.
They were in front of our house in Leeds at 07:00am and wayted untill the agrred unloading time of 09:00AM.Evergthing went smooth again with no incidents.By 12:00 tgei werw on their way back to London.
Outstanding service by any standards and exactly what we were looking for.Well done.

Stress free move.

Nick and Cosmin took away the whole stress from our move.They performed a brilliant service from start to finish.
They came on time and as we were not fully ready they even helped pack the last bits.When we ran out of boxes they provided us with some spare boxes from their van.Really polite and proffessional.
Though this was not the biggest move as we only had a 1 bed flat with not much furniture they worked fast ,they were carefull and happy to help.
Before unloading we had to wayt around 1 hour for the key so we provided them with lunch.
Unloading was double quick with good acces.
No incidents at all and I would be happy to recommend.

Splendid.

A superb service and excellent comunication with the office made our moving day a pleasurable experience.
Everything went as planned .The men worked very hard and nothing was too much trouble.
They were courtious and super efficient in what they did with no time wasted.
The quote was transparent with no hidden charges or terms and we got exactly what we agreed.
A week after the move they came and collected all the empty boxes.This is a very good service as it saves us time going to the local tip.
Good job.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Good service.

This was  only a small move from E1 to the Heron Building.I did all the packing myself so I cannot comment on their ability to pack.
I can however comment on their ability to carry things and they were extremely good at it.Two not very big but strong and smart lads helped on the day.They were polite and clean and experienced and helpfull and I could go on and on.
Also they recycled a desk I no longer wanted at a very reasonable price.
The office people dealt with the parking.As this is always difficult in central london they arranged  for suspensions at both my addresses.The council charges are a rip off but not too much choice.Anyway it was very handy they dealt with this.
Nothing broken or scratched.All my things arrived perfectly intact.
Would be happy to recommend and use again.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to Romford, Greater London

Quality service.

I have chosen this company to move my stuff from a storage facility in Kensington to Romford. It was not a big move as I only had a 100 square feet room.
I wanted them to meet me at the storage place at 12 as I was only getting they keys at 04,and this was not a problem.Also I was given a free ride to the new place as the guys agreed to take me in their van.
To the move itself the 2 men were very good.They were fast,talented and very professional.
They were able to put all the furniture back together for me even though it wasn't them who took it apart.
Also their language skills were very good and I had no problem in communicating with them at all.
Very good service.

Excellent service, very happy.

City-Removals did excellent job helping us move home. The communication from the quote to paying the final bill was prompt and friendly. The guys showed up on time, did their job quickly but still carefully and were friendly and polite indeed.
As I asked for quotes from several companies we feel that the costs with City-Removals were quite reasonable. On top of actually moving our items they supplied all the packing materials, packed all of our fragile items, dismantled (and later reassembled) two really big wordrobes and stored our imtes for 7 weeks before moving them in to our new home.
There were absolutely no problems what so ever. All in all, we are very happy with the quality service we received from City-Removals. The move was pleasurable and stress free. I mean what else can you ask for? .

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

A job well done.

This was a relatively small packing and removal job but it was very well done by this company.|We did not want to have the stress of moving over 2 days so we wanted to do it all in one day.
The men had an early start and as agreed with the office they were in front of our door at 7AM.They were very well equipped prepared and polite.Their attitude imediately put us at ease.
MAybe is just us but we never thought it possible to pack a 1 bedroom flat in under 4 hours.The amount of stuff we had I think it is standard anyone can expect from a property this size.
By 3 PM our flat was empty.
After a short break they arrived at our new address at 05PM and by 07 they were gone with everything nicely arranged in the rooms.
Unpacking the boxes we found everything very well packed with special care and attention given to our fragile items.All the boxes were properly marked and no materials were sparred in ensuring the safety of evrything.We ended up with 10 bin bags full of paper which says everything about how they packed.

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to Edinburgh, Midlothian

London to Edinburgh.

We had a long distance move done by this company and I canot but agree with all the reviews on this website.We have chosen them because of this and we are happy we made the right choice.
Our house was visited by Nicola prior to agreeing to use them.She was very nice,friendly and gave us the trust to use them.
On the first day the crew came in the morning and loaded everything nicely.Our furniture was properly wrapped and handled with care.
Delivery took place the following day at 11.When we got there the guys were waiyting for us in front.
We checked everything and  no damage occured during handling.They also moved some furniture inside our new flat that was already there,but not in the right place.
We were very satisfied with the service provided.We felt very well looked after and it looked like the moving crews actually carred about what they were doing.
All the credit goes to them and to the company for emploiyng such people.

Nothing wrong.

Nothing to complain about.We had two pick up adresses.One was mine and the other my girlfriend's.The men came on time.There was not too much to load from my place so they quickly went over to my girlfriend,where to be honest the bulk of the stuff was.They were very polite and easy going and very good people to have around.
They also helped pack my girlfriend s kitchen which they did in record time.
Being a rainy day they also took their shoes off when necessary and also placed carpet covers on the floor.
Also I have arranged with the office to dispose of some stuff on the day so at the end they took away all the rubish we had.
All in all a positive experience.

London to Birmingham Move.

I am not an expert at judging removal companies as I have not used one before.However all my dealings with this particular company have been very good.I got all the answers I wanted from Nicola in the office.She was at all times availible to speak to and answered my emails in a speedy manner.She also dealt with the parking arrangements at the London address.
Their quote was simple and clear and very well presented.Also all the services were described very well and I knew what to expect on the day.
The guys came on time in the morning.I oferred them a cup of tea and biscuits and after this they did not stop untill all my stuff was loaded.
We then set off to Birmingham.I followed them in my car.
Everything was unloaded safely and placed where I wanted.They were really carefull with everything and all in all top proffesionals.Also they spoke very highly of their company and it seemed to me they get treated very well.
Price wise they were in the middle of all the quotes I got.

Removal from flat to flat.

We moved recently and we have used this company to help us.
They completed their duties admirably.They came on time,worked flawlesly and timely and they did not brake anything.
Communication was also one of their strong points.The persons working in the office were lovely people to deal with and they always helped.
The 2 men that we had on the day worked very hard and they were experienced.
I especially loved the way they packed the truck.Pure lego science.
This was an honest service which was also reasonably priced.

Impressed.

We have used this company to relocate to our new house in Epsom.
It was a very straightforward move.Loads of stuff but nothing over-complicated.
We had our property surveyed by a number of companies but from all of them we liked Nicola the most.She is a real asset to the company and I hope she gets treated well.We have received the quote by email on the same day as the visit.The price was more than reasonable so we decided to book.
The move went very well.All the guys were on time on both days and true professionals.They did not panic when they saw the amount of stuff we had.Guess they seen it all before.
Overlipolite and willing to go out of their way to help at all times.
We had a very positive experience over two days and I would not hesitate to recommend them if they perform like this all the time.

Absolutely excellent.

I used City Removals to move me from my London 2 bedroom house to North Yorkshire. They turned up 10 minutes before our 6am agreed time and didn't stop working until everything was loaded on the van -which was before 7.30am . They were even kind enough to take my cat with them as I was travelling up by train. They arrived at the new place before myself, as I was delayed on the train, and worked incredibly well with my family who were waiting for them. Everything was put in the correct rooms and nothing was damaged at all. I cannot stress enough how quickly, calmly, and efficiently all 3 men worked. They made the whole moving experience as easy as possible.

December 2015.

They arrived 10mins before the 8am arrival time so great first impression.
They were focussed and hardworking and didn't stop until everything was on the van.
We had forgotten, so were relieved to see they had brought mattress and couch covers.
When they arrived at our new house, they were respectful of our carpets and put down a protective sheet all throughout. They didn't damage any walls or items, nothing was missing and they dissembled and reassembled our beds properly.
If they were unsure of anything, they always checked with us first.
Great service.

Excellent service.

I was very pleased with the professional service from City Removals. Team was on time, worked quickly but carefully, and checked in with me as the day progressed to make sure everything was OK. They were pleasant and professional. Delivery at new house was efficient and rapid. When I have gone to unpack boxes everything was where it should be. Nothing damaged. Would highly recommend this company and would use again.

Best removal company ever!

We have never come across a removal company that performed at this level - we have moved internationally several times. Brilliant job! Finished ahead of schedule, no damage, and made a challenging move easy! We have zero regrets in our selection!
Absolute value for the work performed. We had a large 3 bedroom flat and moved into a 4 story terraced house.
The crew was very professional and helpful. Would use them again in a second.

Pleased with the service.

We found this company while trolling the internet for reputable well reviewed company.We were kind of dreading our move as our new neighbor did not have a very good experience when he moved in our street and he used one of the big removal companies.
City Removals were responsive from the first point of contact.We got in touch on a Monday evening our estimator came around Tuesday morning and by noon we had the quote in our inbox.
The good start continued into our removal and packing and at the end we could not have been more pleased with how our move was completed.
The men came spot on time for the packing.They packed and packed and packed..I don't know how they do it everyday but they can.And they packed very well.
The next day the same men plus 2 more arrived with 2 trucks and moved us with lightning speed and quality.Nothing was damaged nothing was missing and it all got placed around the new house according to my wife's instructions.
Great service.5 out of 5.

Good service.

A good service provided to move our items from storage in London to a house in Kent (Ashford, but that's not an option here). The two guys were friendly, polite and helpful and moved a lot of things quickly, taking care not to damage anything. I took a number of quotes for the move and City Removals was one of the cheapest but went with them based on the reviews and I would definitely use them again.

House removal.

City Removals provided a fair quote - not the least expensive - but one that was clear and simple. Their team arrived early and worked quietly and efficiently throughout the day. There were no problems at all, and by the end of the afternoon I had moved into my new place with many of the boxes already removed. City Removals returned two days later to pick up the remaining boxes. I've used them before, and I like the quality of their work.

Great service.

City Removals provided a very quick, professional and uncomlpicated service. Their quote was not the cheapest we had but had a fix price, which was easy to follow and without negative surprises at the end. They also collected the empty boxes a few days later after we had unpacked. It was always easy to reach the office when we had questions in advance. The only unexpected thing was the fact that we had to move the moving date from a Saturday on a Sunday but that wasn't that bad at the end. I can highly recommend them.

Highly Recommended.

We moved from Hackney to lewisham in one day. I cannot praise the team highly enough. They were polite, prompt, efficient, generous and speedy. They didn't quibble about any of our items and continuously asked for our instructions.
None of our items were lost, stolen or damaged. They also offer a recycling pick up for the mountains of cardboard we will be left with.
As stress free a move as they could ensure. Many, many thanks!

Excellent.

We have hired city removals after seeing them at work moving our next door neighbour.We were impressed by their work on the day and we decided to give them a try.
They also came and saw our property.The nicest lady estimator you can meet called Nicola came at 07:00pm one evening.She calmly explained the whole process to us spending around 45 minutes in our house.The quote was sent to us the following morning.
Being so impressed by their approach to date we booked them for our move.
2 men did the packing and the same 2 men plus 2 more came on the following day to move everything.
They came on time they were polite and reassuring and most of all they were proffesional.Communication with them was also spot on.Not that they needed to much talking to.We showed them around and after that they just go on with what they do best.
Nothing damaged during the whole process.Everything is now safely in our new house.We are also waiting for them to pick up the empty boxes which they promised they will shortly.
We would definitely recommend the company and use again.
