George Bird Removals.

Thank you for the exemplary way in which your staff carried out my move last week.they were all on time and dedicated to giving me the best service possible. I was particularly impressed by the care taken in wrapping the delicate items. The company helped no end to take care to alleviate the possible discomforts of the move! I would have no doubts about recommending George Bird as a removal company.

George Bird / CJS Removals.

Several people recommended George Bird to us, and it was slightly confusing as CJS Removals is apparently the same company.
In any case we were exceptionally pleased with the service provided. Everything was arranged at very short notice because of the timescale on our house purchase. Chloe in the office was absolutely charming and very accommodating and helpful.
Martin and Darren came to pack the day before the move. They were incredibly efficient, there was literally nothing for us to do!
On the day of the move there were 5 professional, quick, polite members of staff who carried everything down our 5 flights of stairs without even breaking a sweat. We were amazed at how they lifted full chests of drawers and other heavy items, they packed everything quickly and carefully and even dismantled a desk for us, before reassembling it at our new home.
I cannot recommend this company highly enough. We felt very extravagant paying other people to pack our belongings but it was absolutely worth every penny. If you are hesitating about whether to have the packing service as well as the move, definitely do it. They were so quick and efficient and achieved in a few hours what would have taken us days. Everything seemed to happen incredibly quickly and we were absolutely delighted with the service provided. We were particularly impressed with the way our boxes were labelled - not just "kitchen" but detail such as "mugs, kettle" etc made unpacking and settling in much easier.
Highly highly recommended and I wouldn't hesitate to use CJS / George Bird again.

Businesses Services.

I use CJS as my company often need to move some delicate models to exhibitions. They have always been reliable and efficient, with a professional attitude when they come into the office environment to collect.  The items are very delicate and of high value and have always been well protected and arrived in tact both in the UK and Europe. As a corporate client Paul is our Relationship Manager and I would highly recommend him and his team for their professionalism and attention to detail.

Office Move.

CJS Removals did an excellent job in our office move and accommodated professionally to our demands even on short notice. The team who did the move were friendly and helpful, and they made the move happen a lot smoother than we had hoped for. We hold no reservations in recommending this company to anyone who expects a great service and we would surely be using them in the future.

CJS Removals.

Totally professional and very competitively priced. Hire CJS Removals if you want experts on the job and a smooth, hassle-free move. I've used them twice and could not recommend them more highly. Most of the team have been with the company for 10 yrs - they're loyal and experienced and very pleasant and helpful. We are so happy we returned to them for our most recent move, showing us that these guys get it right every time. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Personal service from experts with experience.

From start to finish CJS was a great firm to deal with. It is a family firm, so you get the personal service and attention to detail you associate with that kind of organisation, and they are experts in their field, very professional, and with years of experience.

The owner/managing director was prompt in providing a quote and - best of all - responded to any query I had very quickly by phone or email, even out of office hours: he took the stress out of moving.

The team who came to pack and remove my things were a joy: friendly, patient, hard-working, courteous, professional.

Basically, I got a great service for a good price and would recommend CJS to anyone.

House Move.

The moving process with CJS removals was perfect. I received a flyer in the post and gave them a ring and they came out on the day and gave a quotation by immediate return, which I thought was very fair (£714), so I didn’t look elsewhere. They were good with providing information throughout the process and they arrived on time with 4 great people, who were polite, professional, efficient, thoughtful, humorous, hard working and they made the whole experience enjoyable. It gives me great pleasure to recommend CJS Removals to anyone wishing to move.

The move was from Harrow to Berkhamsted, the website doesn't allow me to put that in.

Recommended for any move.

We cannot praise CJS Removals enough for their reliable and professional service. We had a local move, (but had lots of stuff!), and they organised the whole load and unload impeccably. Their quote for an 18 tonne lorry and Luton van came in at £1500 (incl vat) and was half the price of a competitor. They loaded more than half the house the day before the move and stored it overnight; this enabled a swift and timely exit on the day of completion and a totally stress free experience! Our crew was headed by Paul and he had a team of five who were all faultless and made us feel more like family than clients. We would have no hesitation recommending them all to any move, near or far, large or small.

Highly Recomended!

As promised Paul and the team took away all the stress on the day.  They expertly disassembled and reassembled the beds, dining room table and dresser.  Piano and pictures were bubblewrapped and glassware was boxed. A valiant effort was made to place an oversize wardrobe in one of the upstairs bedrooms. They were kind enough to move a couple of single beds that had been left behind into the garage. All very personable, professional and hardworking.

Excellent move.

I used CJS removals on Monday 1st October 2012, and they were there right on time as promised at 08.30hrs. We departed the old house right on schedule and they arrived at the new house on time and got unloaded quickly and without any damage to possessions or to our beautiful newbuild house despite the pouring rain. Dustsheets and mats were provided on the day, and prior to the move plenty of boxes, bubble wrap, tape and paper were supplied. The removals men were all courteous and good humoured all day, despite it being a gruelling job with a large number of boxes and furniture being delivered to the top floor of the 3 storey house. We felt that they really earned their money on this one. I would recommend CJS to anybody looking for an efficient and caring removals company.  .

Moving house from London to Cornwall.

We wanted to say how pleased we were with the service CJS Removals gave uswhen we moved from Ealing to St. Breward, Cornwall in July this year. The move went very smoothly for us, the crew  did a fantastic job withpacking, loading and unloading. The unloading especially must have beendifficult as it was a warm day, and there was a long drive back to London tolook forward to. Having the beds assembled for us was especially helpful. .

House move from London to Herts.

A daunting and overwhelming relocation for our family resulted in a smooth and very efficient transition with George Bird/CJS Removals. From the beginning, the whole team worked professionally, they were very helpful, considerate and supportive during the whole process. All of our items were packaged extremely well and the dismantling and then reassembling of beds was priceless! We found the quote to be great value and we will be recommending this company to all who require a top class service. With many grateful thanks to the whole team!

Really good experience.

We want to thank the team who moved us last week. Adam and the others whose names I don't know were a real pleasure to have inour house. They got on with the job, were pleasant and respectful, and madeus feel no request was too much. We had a delay on the day we were meant tobegin to move in to our new place, and they were patient and supportive. They had to carry some items up 9 flights of stairs, which we had agreed,but they did so with grace. In all of our unpacking we have only found 2 small items that were damaged -nothing to worry about, and very grateful for the care that was taken of ourfragile objects. I can't thank you , and them enough. Please pass on our thanks.

CJS Removals London to High Wycombe.

Clever marketing of a leaflet through the door whilst the for sale sign was up was the first we knew of CJS Removals.  We decided to invite them to quote along with three other firms.  The salesman came round at a convenient time and made notes as we went round every room and included garden and garage (one firm relied on me filling in an on-line form rather than visit; they were not considered).  When we received the quote shortly after, it was broken down into all the services they offered allowing us to choose how much we wanted to do ourselves.  We decided to take up the full package of CJS doing the packing, dismantling and re-assembling at our new home and their quote saved us hundreds of pounds against the other firms.  At this stage we didn't have a firm date for moving but this was no problem for CJS who penciled in a date as soon as we had a probale date. Soon the date was confirmed and CJS arranged to come the day before to pack most of the non-essentials leaving anything we said we needed.  They arrived at the agreed time and worked through most of the day packing everything agreed before taking the van to their secure storage over night.  On the day of the move the team again arrived on time and everything was safely packed by about 12:10. CJS met us at the new house and with great efficiency carefully moved every box into the house/garage/shed as we required and re-assembled all the bigger furniture in its correct position.  I was amazed at how quickly the van was empty and the house was full of boxes. Overall we were extremely happy with the Service we received from CJS from start to finish.  The removal team were on time, very polite and checked what we wanted whenever it was needed.  All the items were packed safely and securely and nothing was damaged or broken in the move with every reassembled item as good as prior to the move.  Apparently moving is suppossed to be stressful, with these professionals the move itself could not have been smoother and I would recommend CJS to anybody moving house.

CJS Removals.

CJS moved 'me' from Harrow to Slough on 30th May. The men came the day before to pack everything and I was impressed with the speed and efficiency with which this was undertaken.  All boxes were marked with contents and rooms where they were taken from.  All fragile items were carefully bubble wrapped.  They part loaded the removal lorry on the Thursday and came back the next morning to finish the packing  and loading.  There was a delay in collecting the keys but the lorry was waiting outside the house when we arrived.  The lorry was unloaded very speedily and boxes placed where we requested them.  The guys were all very courteous and helpful and very efficient.   I would have no hesitation in using CJS again and recommending them to my friends.

Great service a a great price.

CJS moved us from Edgware to Huntingdon. Paul and his crew were brilliant.  They came the day before we moved and boxed up all of our things ready for the move the following day. All the boxes were packed with paper or bubble wrap to protect the contents and the boxes were marked up for the individual rooms. The crew worked extremely hard all day and put the boxes in the rooms for us.  I would certainly recommended them to anyone.  Great service at a great price thank you CJS.

Our move to the south coast.

The service we received from CJS Removals was faultless. From the personal service at the quotation stage, the helpful team in Kenton to the fantastic removal team, a stressful time was made a great deal better. Bill and Ben (no kidding) were brilliant and the move could not have gone smoother. I would recommend CJS Removals to everyone. Thank you to all the team. Michael and family (Brighton).

Highly recommended professional removal company.

Great removal company.  Have always been extremely flexible and helpful in the run up to the actual move.  During the move the team are really supportive, very calm (much appreciated as everything else around you seems to be going wrong!!), they work together extremely efficiently.  Their friendliness and incredibly helpful way of working makes moving a great deal easier and it has always been very much appreciated.  We could not recommend CJS highly enough.

Excellent service.

From start to finish, they were so impressive. They delivered a perfect service, being very helpful and efficient. Meaning they didn't spend all day doing the job, but in the short time they were working they did exactly what we needed. We had such polite men helping us, and made the move a much happier day. So so so happy with the service and the choice we made to use CJS removals!!

Truly professional.

CJS removals

They did the job I asked for, seemless, professional and with lots of care and attention.

Firstly, one of the director's of the company personally came to my home and did an estimation. He gave me lots of advice and options, he also explained the ins and outs of moving and what to expect.

I would highly recommend you ask for Bill, Ben and Paul, a great efficient and hard working team. They literally bent over backwards to make sure I moved home in peace.

House move.

This was the second time in two years that we have used this company and their professionalism, efficiency and friendly attitude make what can be a very stressful event very stress free. Wardrobes and beds dismantled and reassembled, no damage to them or anything else. It would have taken us a month to do this ourselves. This web site is asking for us to exceed a number of characters in order to be able to submit this review! We feel we have said all we can about the excellent service we received from CJS Removals. Therefore this additional rubbish is no reflection on CJS removals but simply filler so we can submit this excellent rating.

Excellent company.

CJS removals are thoroughly professional and reliable removals company. The whole experience seemed daunting but they made life very easy for us. We did our own packing but they packed the large items such as mirrors, sofas and beds. I would have no hesitation in using CJS removals again and would definitely recommend them to others. Nothing was too much effort and the staff were very friendly (and patient as I couldn't find our tea/coffee or kettle). They were very careful not to bump or scrape anything at either end of the move and its a testament to the service and care they provide.

Great service, fantastic team.

I can't praise Paul and his team highly enough. They did everything expected and asked for, but went over and above what was required with their calm helpfulness.

The only annoying thing about the process is submitting this review which requires me to write 380 characters! Which is why I'm now filling up space with rubbish. And more spacefilling nonsense. So five stars to the movers and zero stars to the review site.

Office Removals and Relocations.

Having used Paul at CJS Removals on more than 3 occasions over the years I have nothing but positive feedback for him and his team. They are a pleasure to deal with from the initial booking through to the completion of the move. Punctual and efficient every time we do business. Thoroughly recommended as a firm. I would have no hesitation in putting forward Paul and CJS removals as a reliable company to use for any type of removal and relocation project.
