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

Excellent Service.

I used James removals as I wanted a stress free move (as possible).. And this is exactly what I got.. They were absolutely brilliant.. I could not have asked for a better service.. I would definitely use them again.. They arrived on time and they worked hard.. They delivered all boxes to each room where they needed to go. After the move I had a problem with my dryer.. They collected it and fixed it for me. As I said an excellent friendly service.

Service cost: £860

Standard bearer for first class service.

I recently hired James Removal to assist me with a move from my house that I had sold following a set of challenging circumstances and significant trauma over a period of twenty one months. The staff at James removal were wonderful in their care and support of me and sensitive to my needs during this process. The removal guys turned up on time were wonderful in their assistance and support in the organisation of my belonging into those that would be moved to my rental property and the remainder that would go into long term storage.

I have bought and sold seven properties to date and I can honestly say I have never had such a excellent and well managed move that was delivered with grerat professionailm and care. The professionalism and care is embedded into the culture of James Removal and is evident on first contact with the office based staff who are wonderfully helpful and supportive and are solution focussed and helpful to any last minute changes.

I will be recommending James Removals to family, friends and coileagues and consider this firm to be the standard bearer for excxellent service and will use them into the future.

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

Poor aftersales care.

The team was very helpful prior to the move and also on the day.  However, I would not recommend this company outside the small area that they work within.  I moved from London to Oxford but this is considered 'out of area'.  They have not collected the moving boxes and I am unable to drop them at the depot as there are too many to fit in the car.  6 months later they are still holding my deposit.

Service cost: £850

Fantastic removal company.

If you are considering using a removal company then I would definitely recommend James Removals. They are a really professional company and made the whole process as stress free as possible. I could not book them until I had exchanged and had a completion date but I was able to get packing boxes from them for a refundable deposit as we decided to pack ourselves. On moving day 4 men turned up on time and in uniform and just got on with loading our furniture and boxes really efficiently and with utmost care. They dismantled anything we asked them to and reassembled it in our new house. The whole day went very smoothly and cannot recommend them enough- it certainly is worth the money you pay and would use them again.

Service cost: £990

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

First rate move.

This is the second time in two years we have moved, and have used James Removals both times. The service they provided for was excellent on both occasions.

The packers on day one were very careful with all our possessions and there were no breakages at all. They stayed until very late in the evening, but were back on time the next morning with four colleagues for the move. In spite of the miserable task of moving from a three storey house to a fifth floor flat, including some long, heavy items that had to be carried up seven flights of stairs (from a sub-basement!), they kept up a cheerful banter all day and we didn't hear a single groan. They dismantled and reassembled several pieces of furniture and were very efficient.

Every member of the team was smart, professional, polite and hard working - a real credit to the company. We would definitely use them again.

Service cost: £2000

House move.

I’m not one for writing reviews but feel I should for the great service we received with our recent house move with James Removals, this is the second time we’ve used them because they are very professional and can’t do enough for you during a very stressful time in house moving.
Many thanks to James and his excellent team yet again, 5 stars!!

Quality of service.

This company treated my mothers bits and pieces as if they belonged to the queen. They couldn't have been more helpful. They completed this move in 4 days from first contact to the moving day. I don't think you'll get a better service anywhere else.
As we were on a tight schedule we asked for the items to be packed into boxes which was fantastic as my mum didn't have to do a thing. It really took all the stress away for her. Also the boxes are refundable on return (and they collect them!).

Service cost: £588

International move from , Nouvelle-Aquitaine to Bromley, Greater London

International move.

Having had a good experience when James moved us to France seven years we asked James to quote for our return move to the UK.

They were very competitively priced relative to the other quotes we received and given our good experience we decided to employ James again.

Despite temperatures over 30 degrees Gary and Connor worked tirelessly to pack our belongings and then to load them onto the truck.

Gary and Danny then did a great job of getting our belongings into our London home when we returned.

Long-distance move from Greater London to Herefordshire

Move house and some storage

I was recommended James Removals by a friend and I’m very glad to have used them.

We used their boxes and will have our deposit refunded when they are empty and they are collected. The boxes are really strong, reliable and don’t collapse so in effect it makes great sense. These are then reused when in good condition. They are recycled by James Removals when worn out. Very good ecologically.

Everyone was great especially the team on the move days; Jeani, Micky, Charlie, Harry, and Wane. They were fantastic! All were very professional and careful with their work. They we’re very calm and helpful. It was a bit complicated with some storage required and some on a straight move. We had four move days over a few months.

Everything was taken in their stride. Nothing seemed too much effort at all. Everyone was so pleasant and a pleasure to work with, with plenty of good humour.

The loading and unloading of the lorries was planned very well and safely done.

I will definitely recommend them too.
