A good service.

We recently moved from our 1 bed flat in Hammersmith to Birmingham.This company came highly recommended by a work coleague So choosing them was fairly easy.
I told them what I have over the phone and I received their price offer by email.
On the day the guys came on time.I was most impressed with their appearance and with the fact they were very well equipped.
Also they handled all our stuff with care and attention.
Also they came with a brand new vehicle..they said that it was being used for the first time..lucky me I guess.
Nothing missing nothing damaged.Very happy with the service.

Removal.

We relocated from our 2 bed flat to a house in Kingston.We have done all the packing so we only wanted to find a company who could only do the move for us.
We found City on this website.Their price was competitive so we decided to give them a try.
Everyone we dealt with was polite and proffesional.Phone calls and e mails were always answerred quickly.They also did the parking for us with the local council which was helpfull as because I do not drive I do not have a clue about parking.
The 2 men we had on the day were very good.They did it all without any fuss and with no damages.Also very polite hard working and helpfull.
To cut a story short we have no problems in recommending this company as they provided us with an excellent service.Always do your research before choosing.

London to Epping.

City Removals moved us to Epping around 2 weeks ago.We had 2 brilliant removal men.They were polite,hard working and experienced.We also had a piano to move but they made a piece of cake out of it. In the office Alex was always helpfull and prompt in answering emails. The price they quoted did not change and we had no other charges on the day. We chose this company I guess like many others after finding them on this website. Our Ikea wardrobe was also taken apart and put back together without any fuss. Excellent.

Great job.

I have used this company for my recent move.
Everything went as smooth as I could have wished.The 2 men that were assigned were very polite organized and hard working.
I had a small extra charge on the day but found this fair as I had a few more boxes and also forgot to mention a few of the bigger items.
They guys were extremely carefull with everything they touched.They had packing materials with them and covers.My sofa and matress were all covered for the move.
The whole job lasted 7 hours time in which they also took apart and put back together a bed and a double ikea wardrobe.
I would be more than happy to use them again and would recommend to anyone.

Good.

We only had a small move but still the company provided an exemplary service.We packed ourselves and in the end we ended up with around 20 boxes and 5 pieces of furniture..so not a lot.
The crew came on time introduced themselves and started to work.It took then about 90 minutes to load everything.It was impressive to see that they had a cover for our mattress as well.
At out new address again they were ultra carefully and followed our instructions precisely.
Top service.

What a great team!

We had a great experience with Ciry Removals. Mike and John were amazing, super helpful and very resourceful. They were also patient and accommodating. We are not good packers, our things were quite messy but both were so nice about it! They even helped us with some last minute packing! I would definitely recommend the company to anyone who needs a moving company. Thank you guys!

Great Moving Service !

A great experience from start to finish. An estimator came round the same day that I called to get a quote. They were really helpful and offered many packing tips. I had a large table to move with a granite top that is heavy and fragile to move. This was quoted as a separate item as it would require special packing and an additional guy on the moving team. On the day, the 3 guys were great and nothing was an issue, they just got on with it and had a 'can do' attitude. The granite table top was carefully wrapped and crated up. The move was to East Sussex and they we ready to start unloading as soon as we had had the keys. Everything arrived in perfect condition. I have not yet found anything damaged or missing. I would throughly recommend City Removals for a house move. They were friendly and helpful in what can be a very stressful time.

Moving.

City Removals made moving completely stress free. I had never used one and their packing service made it so easy. Their service was fantastic and all the team were lovely. There was no drama when removing a sofa from a small flat. They helped with any queries and we're happy to wait at the other end, when we were waiting for completion. They dismantled and put evreything back together. They were really honest, and  I would highly recommend them.                  !

Excellent work.

We found this company on line on this website.We selected the first 5 companies by the number of the reviews.City Removals were the first company to come to us.We were impressed by Nicolas who did a very good job of assessing our needs and answering our questions. The quote arrived later on the same day by email and we found the price competitive so we decided to book them. As my wife had the time we decided to do the packing ourseves.  On the move day due to the poor acces at our new property 2 smaller trucks arrived and 4 men.All of them were polite , clean and spoke good English. They were extremely hardworking organised and efficient throughout the whole day.Also their main strong point is that even though they are a bit on the slow side this is only because they are extremely carefully when they carry things..so nothing really to complain about here. Dismantling is a piece of cake for them as well.They had all the tools and we're very skilled at taking things apart and put in them back. Once at our new home we showed them around and in about 4 hours they were gone.My wife was with them for the whole time and they followed her instructions precisely as to where and how to place stuff. Very good service and value overall.

To storage and back.

This company kept our stuff in storage for three months.All was delivered back to us in good shape with nothing damaged or missing.
The same team that collected our stuff also delivered it.
On both occasions they were on time polite and extremely professional.We made it clear when we booked that we would like all our furniture wrapped which they did.
The office always answered emails in a timely manner.We had no hidden charges and the quoted price was the price we paid plus the storage.
We were also been given full access to our storage unit in case we ever wanted to visit.
5 star service.

No stress move.

All went as planned.The removal crew came on time ,they were extremely polite,very hard working and diligent.
Clearly this company puts a lot of effort into choosing their staff as both of them were smartly dressed, spoke good English and my feeling was that they get a bit of training into speaking to customers and answering questions.
They came fully prepared with covers and tools.My sliding door wardrobe was no match for them as in about 5 minutes it was in pieces and of course put back together at our new address.
They even gave me a job sheet to sign where I had the opportunity to write a bit of feedback a sign that the company wants to know how their men perform.
top marks from me as the service I received was everything I was expecting.Not the cheapest nor the most expensive but how they say..you get what you pay for.

On time and very helpful.

We had to move our removal date several times due to building works being delayed and City Removals were incredibly accommodating, finding alternative dates and solutions at every turn. They were courteous, punctual and a pleasure to work with. An excellent move, I would not hesitate to recommend them. They were always polite and helpful on the phone too. Thankyou City Removals!

Excellent.

This was a small move from a 1 bedroom flat to another 1 bedroom flat.I moved the small things myself so they only had to move the furniture and stuff I could not fit in my car. I went for their hourly rate option which was 65 pounds per hour.It took them 3 and a half hours to move everything including taking apart a wardrobe and a bed. I thought the whole move went very well.The price also was reasonable for over 3 hours of quality work. I would defo use again and recommend.

As good as it gets.

The whole experience was from our perspective as smooth as it gets.It all started with a home visit by a very lovely lady by the name of Nicola.She was patient and was with us for 45 minutes.She answered all our questions and she made us feel at ease.
The price altough not the cheapest was within our price range and also was what we were expecting to pay.Overall very good value for money considering all went smoothly and with no problems whatsoever.
For 1300 pounds we had a lovely team of 6 strong men with 3 vans who worked very hard and showed professionalism in everything they did.
i could go on and on but time is precious.Perfection does not exist but I would give them 9 out of 10.

Happy customer.

Very good service on all the 3 days.This was a full packing , removal and unpacking service.Wonderful lads with a positive attitude.Also their estimator was the most professional from all the estimators we had (and we had 4).
Parking was also dealt with swiftly.They arranged 4 bays at each addresses.It is a shame people do not look for signs as all the spaces were occupied at both addresses and some time was lost calling the council to try and get them removed.
This was the only downsize but it was not their fault.
Apart from this everything ran like clockwork and the men made sure we moved on time and with no stress.
Wholeheartedly recommend.

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent.

This company can't be beaten - from the start they were so efficient polite and informative. The quote was competitive (and now on reflection - excellent value)

We opted for packing, removal, storage and then delivery service.

Packing! They turned up on time and took great care. They wrapped everything with care and labeled every box. We had packed some of our clothes already but honestly there was no need.

Removal. They took our beds and flat packed stuff apart. We lived on A 4th floor no lift! No problem!

I forgot to book the parking bay outside the house When they turned up - said not to worry - I explained that I might be liable for a parking ticket but mostly the traffic wardens ignore removal vans. In 4 hours our hous was empty.

Storage. I have no idea. They took it away and it came back the way it left. £55 per week. And we had a lot.

Delivery! When they turned up it was raining cats and dogs. It was a couple of minutes walk from the van to our front door. The supervisor explained with the walk and the conditions (it was pouring) the couldn't off load. To much risk of slipping etc. but they waited till it started to clear and then states to move. When the rain re started they carried on. They reassembled our furniture and helped us sort it all out.

Honestly I can't recommend this compay enough. Real people real service and real delivery. Top class!

First class.

A very good experience with everything you would expect from a reputable company.If not a premium service than very close to what someone would call a premium first rate service.
Things like they came on time and did their job very well I do not think are worth mentioning.This should be part of every service.What really struck us was how nice ,polite and willing to help everyone was.They ve done more than we expected and in many ways things that are not in their job description.
Needless to say nothing was missing or damaged in any way.
It was a pleasure to watch the men work and also to speak and deal with Alex and Nicola in the office.
Well done.

Outstanding.

Outstanding service.We booked with this company well in advance as we were lucky enough to know our moving date 1 month before.
As we only had a 1 bedroom flat they sugested there is no need for a home survey as if we provide them with an accurate list of what we want moved they can give us a quote and keep to their prices.
And so it was.The 2 men turned up on time.They were very polite  and worked very well.They were careful with everything and showed consideration and respect.
Also we had no extra charges as they promised.
Well done.

London to Frankfurt.

Excellent service.This was only a small move from  a studio flat in Holborn to Frankfurt,Germany.I had very little to pack but still asked them to do the job of packing.They came and loaded everything the evening before,drove all night and at around 12:00 the next day they knocked at my door in Frankfurt.
The 2 men were amazing.Very hardworking and polite.
Everything arrived intact and nothing missing.
I would recommend this company.

As for the move it all went as expected.The 2 men provided us with an outstanding service.They were nice to deal with friendly and most importantly organized and professional.
5 out 5.

Easy move.

Everything looks easy when done by the right people. I hired this company at the last minute so not too much time to research.A very good service backed up by what seems to be a very good on line reputation. Packing,moving and also they oferred to dispose of some unwanted furniture for a small fee. The men worked well and fast.They took very good care of everything wrapping and protecting with blankets and covers. They finished it all by 3:00 pm. Would recommend.

London to Bristol.

Top marks for an excellent service.They were recommended to me by a coleague who used them on two previous occasions.Based on my experience I would recommend as well.
We moved from London to Bristol.Two lovely Romanian chaps came bang on time at 06:00AM.The poor men caught an accident on their way to Bristol and were stuck for 3 hours.They managed to unload everything by 07:00PM.Not their fault but credit to them they they got on with the job on hands without complaining.
Communication with them was also very good.They spoke english and understood all our instructions precisely.
A job very well done with little to complain about.It was just what a removal is suposed to be and what anyone would expect.

Very good service.

We had to move our belongings in storage for a few weeks as we had a new floor fitted in our flat.
We completed their online quote form and the quote was with us within the hour.
£270 to take everything to storage and another £270 to deliver it all back.In terms of storage they work with Big Yellow which is quite a name in the storage industry and we felt reassured.
The men came on time.They collected everything and brought it all back in the same condition it left.We also had an inventory which we crosschecked at the time of delivery just to be safe.Nothing missing or damaged.
Very good service and experience.

Moving home.

Everything started with a visit from their surveyor.Incredibly patient and polite..she was with us for 45 minutes.All our questions were answered and she explained very well what we had to expect in terms of service if using them.
The price was midrange. If their service was as described than we thought it is well worth it so we decided to go with them.
Our moving day was as we thought it will be.The men came on time.They presented themselves  ,we showed them around and that was it.Some 9 hours later we were already unpacking in our new house.
They were very organized,well equipped and hard working.All from Romania..not that it matters if they perform all the time like this.
Well done.
