Long-distance move from Poole, Dorset to Poole, Dorset

Genuinely excellent

We read many positive reviews about J-Load and after discussing our requirements with Matt, went with them because of their personable approach, flexibility, pricing and positive attitude. On the day we had the pleasure of Chris and Dean, both of whom were exemplary throughout the move and worked a hard / long day to ensure all stress was taken out of our move - which they succeeded in. My opinion is that J-Load has a very unique culture, staff enjoy their work, they go the extra mile and the flexible pricing options cater for all needs. Delighted to have them in my network, both personally and professionally, we will be using again for sure.

Moving

We did not have far to move. We still had to use a removal company. We are very pleased we used Jload. Matthew kept in touch with us. We had to change dates a couple of times but it wasn't a problem. On the day they arrived 10 minutes early. Loaded the vans quickly and efficiently. The same with the unloading and kept checking everything going in the right room. Very polite and nothing was too much. Made our move very easy. Thanks Matthew and team. Christine

Long-distance move from Dorset to Somerset

Move from Dorset to West Somerset

From the initial quote to the day we moved Matt & his team were on hand and constantly checking we had everything we needed. On the day before the move the house was packed up quickly and efficiently. Our removal team of 3 were excellent (Matt - apologies for not remembering their names can you name them for me). Nothing was too much trouble, they worked hard and were incredibly careful with everything. Really top blokes.

We were delayed getting our keys at the other end but the guys remained cheerful and assured us not to worry. When we did move in, they did not rush it instead made sure everything was where we needed it and unloaded carefully. They had a long drive home so we appreciated that. All in all would highly recommend to anyone!

Better late than never!

We moved 17 Mar.Lift at new block out no problem the 4 guys worked like demons. Best price no quibbles about last minute date changes. Totally brilliant in all aspects of the move. All nice guys just kept the drinks coming(Cokes). Absolutely brilliant the actual move/quote process quick and easy. Not intending to move soon but J-load would be our first, second & third call.

Excellent Service

Upon finding J-Load Removals, I was contacted by Matthew who organised to come round and take a look at the inventory they’d be moving (outside of his own working hours). I then decided to book the move with them.

On move day, two very professional & friendly chaps arrived, sussed everything out & went about their work. They were fantastic all the way through, helping out with bits that they weren’t even expected to & making the move as stress free as possible. I would strongly recommend J-Load Removals to anyone! Can’t go wrong with them.

Long-distance move from Bournemouth, Dorset to Bournemouth, Dorset

Brilliant all round

I recently hired J-Load to complete a local move in the Bournemouth area, from a storage space to a 1-bedroom first-floor flat. I can't praise J-Load enough. The two-man crew on the day, Darren and Dean, were polite, helpful and efficient, and went the extra mile to reassemble a challenging wardrobe. The reassembly proved hard to complete on the day, so J-Load director Matthew returned at a convenient time a few days later to finish the job himself. It makes all the difference when a company is helpful in this way, and fairly priced, so I would have no hesitation in hiring J-Load again, or in recommending them to other customers.

Quote was very reasonable..I moved 25 miles,from 4 bed to three bed home...the communication was great,and all my things were packed on the vans with great care,including around 40 potted plants...the guys were lovely and tried really hard with two large sofas which we thought would not go up to the lounge but they persevered and we got them in!...I cannot thank them enough, and if I ever move again ,would use J-Load Ltd,they are the best!!

Courteous, careful and cheerful

Our move from Poole to Ferndown was delayed 4 times. J-Load managed to adapt to every change, and still managed to do a great job, on time and with smiles all round. Matt was especially helpful, and led a great team of guys to do everything he had promised. I was glad to see 4 vehicles for the job, as it allowed for some flexibility in loading. We were very pleased with everything, including price, professionalism, service, flexibility and adaptability. Highly recommended.

J-load Exceeded all our expectations

We initially selected J-load because they were the most competitive overall and we really liked Matthew Bell when he came round to quote. Then on moving day the chaps who did the move could not have been friendlier or more helpful. They were cheerful, calm, positive and hard working, and kept us at ease. They took all our large furniture apart and rebuilt it in the new place and couldn't do enough to help. They even helped to select good locations for furniture in our new home, and were still there at 5.30pm on a Friday asking us if there was anything else they could do. I would thoroughly recommend J-Load and would like to thank them for their efforts with our move. I feel like they went over and above what was expected of them and it was a pleasure using them.

Long-distance move from Poole, Dorset to Lytchett Matravers, Dorset

House move

From the moment Matt came to provide a quote(1 out of 5 companies) he made me feel at ease about preparing to move house, providing advice and tips. I even decided if J-Load came in more expensive I would use them as Matt made me feel at ease with the process. Turns out it was the most competitive quote.

It was a 2 day move, with the garage and garden being moved the day before and the house on completion day. The crew arrived on time both days and were hard-working. They took control of the move and we sorted the cleaning! It was a really smooth home move and stress free. To move a 5 bedroom house in one day and have left by 430pm shows how hard they worked to get the job done. Great communication and care throughout. I would recommend and use again. Thank you, J Load Ltd.

Can’t say enough positive things!

The team were wonderful from first contact to the removal day. Matt was great to work with, he sent a staff member around to check my inventory to ensure that everything was accounted for and the price was correct. Talking of price - amazing value!

The guys were on time, clean, friendly and respectful. Really lovely guys. They even hoovered my house before leaving as they knew I was running short of time, which was so kind!

Everything was packed so well and so carefully, and they put the furniture back together in no time, which was amazing in terms of helping to settle in.

Honestly - cannot recommend highly enough!! Just fantastic.

Moving House

We had several quotes for moving, and though J-Load was not the cheapest, they were so thorough, from the moment Chris walked through the door to do the survey, to Matt, always being there at the end of the phone, and to the actual move itself over two days. Darren, Gabriel and Warren who came to actually move our belongings were lovely friendly lads, and nothing was too much trouble for them. Everything was carefully stowed on the trucks. Not having to empty wardrobes or chests of drawers was a huge bonus as it saved a lot of time at both ends. Within a few hours they had loaded the truck, driven to our new home and unloaded everything. Beds were dismantled and then put together again in the new house. I wanted to leave my freezer full till the last minute, and they even emptied that for me and put it all in the container with the ice I had bought. Brilliant service all round, and very highly recommended.

Amazing friendly and accommodating service.

J-Load Ltd were truly exceptional in my house move.  Unfortunately our dates to move house changed quite a few times and each time they were accomodating and always understanding.  It is a stressful time moving house and J-Load took all the stress out of our moving.  I can highly recommend this company and would not hesitate to use them again.  Professional and effecient staff.  Also competitive pricing the icing on the top!  thanks again. .

Survey.

We have no problem recommending this company, the team were helpful, cheerful, and worked like Trojans.
Theydismantled large wardrobes,  re-assembled when we arrived at our destination, at a very reasonable price. 'cuold not access property , so our furniture had to go into storage, the guys just took it in their stride, even though we couldn't provide refreshments, to keep them going.
They had a late finish, and a long tiring drive home, but did a great job.

Great moving company!

Matt and Steve from J-Load did an excellent job all around, from planning the move to doing much of the packing (including lots of books!), to the transport, to putting all the furniture and boxes where they should eventually go in the new home (even assembling the big pieces!). With their help, the move was relatively stress-free, and Matt gave really good advice beforehand and helped a lot with the planning and taking the stress out of moving! I'd definitely use their company's services again :).

Professional Approach.

We chose Matt from J Load due to his professional but light hearted approach. Nothing was too much trouble and with them turning up the day before we moved meant we were packed and loaded well in time for completion. We would have no hesitation in recommending J Load and are happy to speak to any potential clients.
