I can highly recommend this company.

Both staff were courteous and very calm.

They moved me in a quiet and very efficient manner.

I felt very relaxed throughout the whole process.

Thank you so much.

Long-distance move from York, North Yorkshire to York, North Yorkshire

House clearance - highly recommended

Andrew and his team of two arrived on time to clear out my mother's house following her move into a care home.

They came highly recommended - and no wonder - they took all the 'stress' out of a very stressful situation.

They worked with care and speed and sorted items for Auction, charity, and skipping - they wrapped boxed delicate items and found a few 'lost treasures' and returned them. All items where then delivered to the right places leaving me with an empty house.

Simply excellent service and such lovely people. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andrew and his team at Hooks.

International move from York, North Yorkshire to Dublin, Dublin

Removal to Ireland.

I would go nowhere near this company. They returned my mothers property damaged and items missing. A dinner service in a suitcase, a missing drawer in an antique sidebord, painting missing, weights from a grandmother clock packed with a stereo. When I refused to use their 3 Van's for transport to Ireland they refused to release property until payed in full, knowing damaged items and property missing and no will not answer emails.
If you value your property, go nowhere near them.

Service cost: £4000

Official company response

Dear Mrs Waugh, thanks for sharing your feedback. We take these matters very seriously and are sorry to hear that you had an unhappy experience.

You stored items with our storage partner for a long period of time and were charged accordingly. We take great pride in a long history of treating our customers possessions with the greatest care but unfortunately we are not able to take responsibility for items reported missing/damaged after they were moved to Ireland by a different removals company.

Please do contact us if you still feel these issues are unresolved – 01904 762609.

Long-distance move from Yorkshire to Yorkshire

Local move (to a new self storage unit) within York

Once again Andrew and the team did a fantastic job. We have used Hooks several times and each time they have done a speedy and efficient job, while looking after our belongings. We have another 3 moves in the pipeline and will use Hooks for all of them.

I would recommend this firm to anyone/everyone without hesitation. They really do deserve their 5 star rating.

Fabulous efficient home moving service

I hired Hooks to help with all the “big stuff” in a recent house move. They turned up on time, were friendly and even helped us to move some furniture around that was already in our property and helped us to connect washing machine. All of our things were handled with care and it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. Thanks again, a hard recommend from me!

Long-distance move from York, North Yorkshire to York, North Yorkshire

Such great guys!

We have used Hooks several times over the past year and every time they have definitely gone the extra mile. Really helpful with short trips as well as longer and more complicated deliveries. Helping carry stuff in and out of the premises, with a cheerful and positive attitude. Taking great care with the breakables and lifting the heaviest of items with no problem!

Would recommend them to anyone.

Moving half a mile down the road

I can’t praise Andrew and his team highly enough, they worked extremely hard, they were friendly, polite and professional. Nothing was too much trouble, even when I changed my mind about positioning of furniture! I would definitely use. Hooks again and have already recommended them to two friends.

NB the cost of my removal may sound high compared to others however not only did I have the house contents, (including 55 boxes) I had a dozen garden statues and about 30 potted plants

Local removal

Finally got around to writing this review! We used Hooks Removals in January of this year to move locally from a large house to a much smaller one. Andrew and his crew were punctual, professional, polite, friendly and very hard working. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They made a stressful time a lot easier by their kindness. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and recommend them to friends and family. Thank you Andrew.

Fast & highly efficient tailored service

My family and I have used Hooks 3x over the last few years for house moves, storage and transport (within York area and also from York to Staffordshire). I can’t fault Andrew and his team at all who are friendly and courteous. They advised and tailored our needs prior and during to the moves and everything went perfectly.

Very good advice on maximizing charity +recycling opportunities and estimating storage space needed. Also, very clear, simple and competitive pricing.

If you’re around York area please support this local family business!

Long-distance move from York, North Yorkshire to York, North Yorkshire

Move within York

It was a short move, but complicated as our sale-dates kept shifting, and we had a lot of pictures and books. Andrew was calm, supportive and reliable. His team worked speedily and efficiently. Lots of laughter too. They even made a special journey to deliver an overlooked orange tree (no, really). VERY STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.
