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

Great Service - Used them twice already.

Using them the second time says it all. I was very happy with the service and will use them a third time.

Friendly, punctual, efficient.

The move happened within London and the challenge was the lack of the elevator of the new flat on the fourth floor.

All items were well wrapped and protected and therefore no damage has happened. During the day they managed to get an additional fourth person to make sure that the move is finished in time.

Great service.

We used City Removals to move less than two miles down the road from a two bedroom flat to a three bedroom house. We used the packing plus removal service and were hugely impressed throughout. All members of the team were smartly dressed and very polite, and the guys doing the work were very efficient workers who put in an almost 12 hour day to get everything completed. High quality packing materials were used throughout and all items put in the correct rooms and disassembled and reassembled as required. We used City Removals after a recommendation from a friend and we will now be recommending them to anyone we know who needs to move in future. Thanks very much to City Removals!

Polite and speedy.

We used City Removals to pack and move just before Christmas. The quote was reasonable. The guys arrived bang on time. They were very polite and took good care to pack our things properly. It would have taken us so much longer to do the job ourselves that I would not think twice about the packing service next time. Overall we were very impressed by their speed and efficiency. Would definitely recommend them - in fact we already have!

A first class move.

Taking a "Which" recommendation is a good starting point for any service and we were not disappointed. We were delighted with our move last week. The team arrived promptly, wrapping everything that we had not boxed or bagged. They could not have been more efficient , helpful or patient - there was nearly a three hour wait for completion and the handover of our keys. We would certainly recommend City Removals.

No hassle.

From the initial contact through to the last box taken out from their van everything about the service we received from this lot was superb.
You cannot meet 2 nicer removal men. They were polite, courteous and did their job extremely well. They spoke good English were smartly dressed and all in all did their company proud.
Nicola the office lady who we dealt with was also helpful and always tried her best to make things as smooth as possible. She also organized the parking with the local council.
Nothing was damaged or missing. All the furniture was properly wrapped and protected. bed and a wardrobe were taken apart and reassembled without any problems.
We were expecting a good service but this has surpassed our expectations in a good way.
All in all a very good service and would recommend.

Everything went perfectly.

They guys turned up right on time, packed the van efficiently and quickly and unpacked the other end carefully, following the room labels written on the boxes perfectly. They were friendly but not chatty, which was fine. I was amazed at how they managed to fit all the strange shaped stuff I have into the van without damaging anything. I'd use them again if I ever move from my new place.

Excellent Service.

Fantastic service from City Removals all the way from our first phone call until the last box was unpacked.

City Removals took all the hassle out of moving and even organised the car parking suspensions on our behalf.

The 4 removals men worked tirelessly over two days to ensure we were as happy as possible. They went the extra mile to ensure our furniture was exactly where we need it.

Thank you!

Consistently good service.

No need to say that we were dreading our moving day.With 2 kids and 2 dogs it can never be easy.But we did our homework before choosing a company and this paid very good dividends.
City Removals provided us with an outstanding service.They did a visit to our home before providing us with a price offer.We had a 3 day service: packing moving and unpacking on the 3rd day.
If there was to be a text book with how to move home than this company should have written it.
We moved before but we never had this level of service.
Everyone we got in touch with was easygoing and willing to help.
The workers worked with lightning speed and also with great care.They were very communicative always asking questions to make sure they do not do anything wrong.They took very good care of everything and in the end our move finished without a single minor or major incident.
Keenly priced, good value for money and no stress at all.Once they get inside your house you can consider that you have already moved.
Top job.

Recent Relocation.

I moved from East Ham to Ilford and employed them for my relocation.
I am so impressed with their politeness and efficiency executing the task at hands. They patiently waited for the conclusion of house sale and purchase that happen on the same day. No damage occurred on any goods. In the new place, they placed them where I wanted and reassembled as needed for some furniture

I hardly have words to write my gratitude to make my relocation day with least hassle and worry

A big thank for all the lads involved in the job. I have no hesitation to recommend them.

A quality service.

Not much to say.A quality service came to no surprize as based on their on line reputation this was to be expected.
Packing,wrapping,dismantelling,reassembeling they did it all without any problems.Also incredibly fast given how carefull they work.
I would say this was our best move.We moved two times before.All was ok but this time it was outstanding.I was left very impressed when they coverred our sofa and mattress with some zipped covers they had.Good and usefull stuff.
Recommended service.

Great value for a carefree removal.

Booked last minute a day before, great service, competitive quote, friendly guys and everything was moved in time and undamaged. They came 20m early but would have waited if required. They also helped me bring up stuff that we brought ourselves in a zipvan. I helped out a bit just to speed things up and not feel helpless but they gave me the lighter stuff and I didn't feel like I had to do anything. The van is fully prepared with blankets, packaging bits and they gave me padding for frames we didn't have time to pack. Would highly recommend and use again, took all the stress out of moving.

An outsanding service.

The service we received was outstanding from start to finish.All the people we spoke to and met were courteus and always willing to help.
The guys on the move day were so nice that the whole experience was relatively stress free.A pleasure to deal with all of them.
Even though I am pretty certain that they were eastern europeans their english was very good and they understood our instructions and knew what to do all the time.
The packers a day before were equally nice and to our surprize a young woman was part of the team.She was as proffesional and as strong as all the other men.
We had nothing danaged or missing.All our things were treated with the upmost care and attention.
We already gave them a call to pass our gratitude but thought that an online review was pretty well dezerved as well.
Top sevice and pretty much impressed.

Fantastic.

This is how a move day should be for everyone.No stress,evrrything went along calmly and here we are writing a review about this company in our new house 
I guess like everyone we chose them based on their reviews.There is nothing more important than researching the company you want to use.With so manny cowboys out there this is of paramount importance.
They are more expensive than your average man and a van but cheaper than the big companies.
My opinion is their service deserved even more.
Everything was as it should be,on time,proffesional and with a smile.

Complete service.

City Removals provided us with a complete service.We took the packing option the removal and also the unpacking service.As we did not have a massive amount of stuff all was done in one day.A long day I must admit.They were with us for app. 12 hours,but it was worth it as we were back to our normal lifes in just one day.
Also as they unpacked they took away all the rubish and the boxes.
All of the guys were nice people and worked very hard.A 12 hour shift is not for everyone I guess.
All in all a very good and efficient service.

Great Stuff.

We used this company for our recent house move from W11 to SW6.
It was a rather complicated move as some pieces of furniture were to wide and they had to be hoisted through the window.Because of this we had a surveior who came and did a proper asesment.
On the day we had a 6 men crew.Using straps and blankets they safely took everything down.Not a single scratch and nothing damaged.Very impressed.Clearly they had the know how and this wasn t the first time they did this.
The rest of the move did not pose any problems and everything went along nicely and smooth.

Excellent in every way.

We feel that this has been an outstanding experience in every aspect,from the lovely and very helpfull office people to the poor men that moved us.
The whole thing has been above and beyond our expectations.We did not know removal men can be so helpfull and approachable.Throughout the whole day we felt that they actually carred about what they were doing.
Also their attention to detail is present in all they do.For example being a long day the first thing they did at our new address was to assemble the cot and unload the boxes from the babys room.This was very helpfull as we wanted to put the baby to sleep.
Also they were very fast but without neglecting our furniture.All was wrapped and handled with care.
Nothing was damaged and everything was as before.
A very good service tgat we would certainly recommend to others and use again.

Happy Customer.

I ve used the services of this company to move the contents of my flat. I had an average 1 bedroom flat with loads and loads of books. The guys also packed up everything for me. The moving itself was very good.They took apart my wardrobe and put it back together at the new place.Also the bed was dismantelled.The men were polite fully equipped and very very hardworking.
A very good and pleasant experience overall.

Great service!

We used the services of this company to move from London N16 to SE9. We had a quite large 1/2 bedroom flat in a warehouse conversion, and quite a lot of stuff to move. I was very stressed about the removal, but the team handled everything with professionalism and great care. The team was very polite and very helpful, and the whole thing was above and beyond our expectations. We had already dismantled most of our furniture (control freaks!) and packed most of our stuff but left them to pack the fragile items. They wrapped every single small glass or plate in multiple sheets of paper so that nothing would be damaged, with great attention and care. And in such a short time! After going up and down two floors dozens of times with our boxes to load the van, they even offered to help us reassembling the furniture once at the new house, and did so with care and very quickly. I hope we will stay in this house for a long while now but if I ever needed to move again, I would definitely use their service! .

Good move.

Over 30 years I ve moved 10 times and I dare say that the experirnce I had with City Removals was at the top in terms of quality,communication and flexibility.
They packed all of our belongings in one day where as other firms said they needed 2 to 3 days.Also the packing service was of a very good quality with boxes labelled and no materials spared.
The whole house was moved in one day and I must say I have never seen 5 men work so fast,being so carefull and so polite.They used 3 vans and they were on time.Sharp 7 they knocked on the door.
Highly recommended.

Top notch.

Our removal van arrived early but the crew wayted outside untill the designated time.
Sharp 8 they knocked on the door and we gave them a tour of the property.We showed them what is coming and what is staiyng behind.They followed our instructions precisely and worked very fast.
As we had a strict landlord we asked them to cover the floors,which they did.
They were also very carefull throughout the whole job and they did not scratch or  damaged anything.
Money very well spent as we had a quite move day with no incidents.Top service.

Flawless moving service.

Where do I start?!The service we received from this company has been flawless.From the extra polite cheerfull and skilled men to the office personel,everyone was just right.
Like manny people here we had a home visit.Nicola was the nicest person you can meet.She was friendly proffessional and all without the ussual sales tehniques.She answerred our questions to the best of her knowledge and for some reason we already felt in safe hands.
The best bit of advice was to buy their packing service.When I look back it is incredible how much time and stress this saved us.The packers were very very fast,all our boxes were labelled and everything nicely packed and wrapped inside.Clearly this was out of our league.So..never pack yourself.
On the actual day again the men made feel at ease from the morning.The best thing about them is that of course they are proffesional and know what they are doing but they are also friendly and with a can do attitude.This is so important when you move.
Very good service.

Back from storage.

We just took delivery of our stuff from storage.They kept our goods for 5 months .
Everything seemes fine with nothing damaged or missing.Our furniture was still wrapped when they brought it back, just like when they took it away.
We have now unpacked most of the boxes.Everything was incredibly well packed inside and the boxes were marked.
We had a differrent team now but they were just as good.Always polite ,very helpfull and happy to follow instructions.
Our goods were kept at Big Yellow.It seems like they have an agreement with them.The price was very good also,in fact better than if we would have storred with Big Yellow directly.
Very good service.

Move review.

I have been asked to review this company as we had used them recently and I can t fault any part of the service.
All the packing has been done a day before.The team worked together and they were organized.
Also communication was excellent and they were very polite and well mannerred.
On the move day itself they came on time, in fact a litle bit earlyer, we showed them around the house and this was all the instructions they needed.They worked as a team and were very efficient.
The whole experience took much of the stress out of the move and I would recommend them unreservedly.

Piano Move.

We contacted this company after reading so manny good things about them on the internet.
We only had one item to move but this was a baby grand piano.
The first sign of proffessionalism was when they recommended a home survey so that they can check how the acces is and identify other potential issues.The surveyor explained the procedure to us and said the job nedeed a 4 men crew.The quote was with on the same day.
On the move day the men came on time and were fully prepared.The piano was very well wrapped and handled.They had piano skates,covers,tools and piano shoe.
The whole move finished nicely with our piano hopefully in it s final resting place.
A very well done job.

Happy move.

We have recently relocated to a newly refurbished flat in Romford coming from central London.
The service we received was exceptional.Mike and Silviu were the nicest and most proffessional guys we could have met.They were experinced, knowing what they were doing at all times.Also their vehicle was clean and new, and they were very well presented.
Apart from moving they also packed our pictures in furniguard.
I am happy to recommend them to anyone and I can only hope that their other employees are just as good.
