Moving Home Made Easy

I’ve have realised that finding a good removals company is always tricky – you only do it occasionally and there’s not going back if things don’t work out on the day! I have usually used a friend’s recommendation or other local knowledge before, but being new to the Glasgow area that was not so easy.

My move was a local one (only 8 or so miles in the Garelochhead area) and I really wanted it done in a day, so I got 4x quotes. The most highest was outrageous and they obviously didn’t want the business. The lowest was just too low and I couldn’t see how they could make any money and I really didn’t want to trust my entire house to some guys who were probably being paid less than minimum wage.

That left two, who both did a proper survey and I chose ‘Moving Home Made Easy’ as their quote was reasonable, the surveyor who did the survey was very knowledgeable, offered good advice and easy easy to deal with. The whole ethos of ‘Moving Home Made Easy’ appears to be around customer service and I thought I would give them a go – especially as the personal contact and information given by David Reed the MD was second to none.

The move went fine, the guys were great and took good care over the boxes (I packed myself with boxes provided by them and some I already had) and with furniture etc. Nothing was broken or damaged. All in all I would recommend ‘Moving Home Made Easy’ as they seemed to live up to their name.

David and the team made our move so simple. We are being moved for 6 months whilst our insurance make repairs to our home, so our stress levels are through the roof, but Moving Home Made Easy really live up to their name.

From David making a personal visit on the day to do a walkthrough, and to explain when the team would turn up and what they would do, to the good natured banter from the removal tea m. Seriously, they had me proper gut laughing.

That said, they might have a laugh with each other but they take their work very seriously. Nothing was too much for them, and I was absolutely amazed at how quickly they worked. Quickly, but thoroughly.

On the other end, they were absolutely fantastic in getting everything in the new house, placed and put together. Special notice to Jack who was a great point of contact whilst the removal was happening. Incredibly professional and friendly.

There are lots of local removal companies, and I’m sure loads of them are great at what they do. But I won’t be using anyone else if I can help it - the value, service, and overall experience from the team at Moving Home Made Easy really is second to none.

Service cost: £1236

The guys that carried out the removal were extremely nice and polite. I was quite sceptical about this company at first but when I met David my mind was put at rest.
I would really love to have given this company 5 stars, but I'm finding too many things damaged. My leather suite has suffered nicks because of rubbing door edges. My table is chipped, my brass light is full of dents. I have a washing machine that no longer works because the older guy fitted it (which was kind of him) but he didn't check if the pipe under the sink was capped and it was. Now I'm washing clothes in the bath because I can't afford a new machine after the price of the move..(which was reasonable by the way) I could go on but I won't. Suffice to say the whole group of guys are great and work very hard. I'm just disappointed that so much damage has been done in the process. Sorry guys you were great but someone maybe needs to take better care. I seem to be the only one here that's given a less than perfect review, but I'm being honest. The pick up was South Lanarkshire but have to put Glasgow because SL not on list.

Since writing my former review, I have had a meeting with David Reed.
He very kindly came out to see me to inspect the damages I referred to in that review.
On inspecting the damages, we came to an amicable agreement on this matter, and David reimbursed me to cover these damages.
This now makes David's company a complete 5 star rating from me!
Thank you David. I would highly recommend people use your company for moving home.
Very satisfied customer indeed!

MOVING MADE EASY
‘Really does make moving made easy ‘
I found the service and professionalism of the removal company 'Moving Made Easy' to be second to none. Totally a 5 star company.
The first thing that I was impressed with, was the fast response from David Reed the MD of the company within 30 mins of my request, he was straight down to business and it gave me a feeling of, this guy knows what he's doing. Very impressive!
He was polite, knowledgeable and most importantly totally professional.
David knew his job and put me at ease straight away, which for me was ideal as I was extremely stressed out about moving house.
David just talked calmly and guided me every step of the way.
Within the first week he had kept in touch several times to relieve me of any apprehensions I had.
He brought me boxes, tape, bubble wrap and even sent some of his team to help me start the task of packing.

I would like to add that this was not my moving day, this was just an added service that he kindly afforded me, which was a life saver as I couldn’t cope with everything strewn about my house and for a very reasonable cost, he put the boxes into storage for me until I had completed my big move..

Regarding the removal day, the guys were just fantastic.
Everyone of them was extremely polite and knew exactly what their job was , and I was very impressed with the care that they took whilst handling my furniture, my antiques and my precious ornaments, carefully wrapping them and carrying them with tender loving care.

My carpets and my sofas were protected (ivory colour) with covers and there was not a mark on them when the removal was completed, I couldn't fault their professionalism of every aspect of my removal.

The staff who were involved in my removal were just full on in every level. This is a first class team who conducted their work with the utmost precision and care.
I could not believe that a house move could be so stress free, I certainly wasn't prepared for the expertise of the staff. They packed my belongings and reminded me of small silly things that I had overlooked.

I personally feel that the day I was dreading so much was dealt with ease and I actually felt that this was just fantastic. Apart from my own small personal items, I was done and dusted by mid afternoon, totally unbelievable and amazing, these guys had a special ability to make the horrendous job of moving a piece of cake, (absolutely true).
I would not hesitate to recommend David Reeds Removal company as they definitely lived up to their slogan "Moving Made Easy.

Had to move my stuff from home to a storage place. The first contact I had with them was really good. They send someone to visit he property to ensure instructions on what to remove and what to leave was understood.
The 2 movers who did the job on the day were also absolutely amazing. Really nice, very professional, didn'the have to be on their back to check if everything was done properly, I immediately felt like they knew what they were doing.
Everything was very well packed with great care and in a very reasonable amount of time.
Really happy with these guys, will definitely used them again.

I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Moving Home Made Easy. Moving Home Made Easy were first to respond when I started my search for a reliable removal company. I got a good first impression - quick, clear and straight-forward communication with David, Managing Director. The excellent service continued until the job was completed. David personally visited my home to assess the job and made a follow-up visit to hand-deliver boxes and packaging materials (after I requested some help at short notice). The majority of my furniture and possessions were pre-loaded the day before my official move day (which helped considerably to make the process less stressful). The team responsible for the move were punctual, polite and careful. I had a 4-bedroom property so calculating the number of people required and the size of the removal vans couldn't have been easy - but, like everything else, it was really well done. Unloading was seamless. First class throughout.

I moved from Milngavie on the outskirts of Glasgow to Evesham in Worcestershire. I chose to self pack, was supplied with boxes,tape and bubble wrap.
I ended up with about roughly 14 boxes and a few loose things like vacuums etc. The van came bang on time, the people were great and very efficient and had loaded up in no time.
I chose next day delivery and that was excellent too.
If you're thinking about using Davids company to move you, don't, just do it,you won't be disappointed.

Service cost: £2240

We had excellent service from the initial home visit to the removal itself. David did exactly what he said. The quote was sent quickly and there were no additional costs for any kind of insurance. Alan and George arrived on time, loaded up efficiently and professionally. A few pieces of furniture had to be dismantled and rebuilt. The bed is better than before!!
There was even a separate van for our 75 garden pots.
I would recommend the services of this very professional company.

We cannot recommend this company highly enough and have used them twice now. On both occasions, our moves were not straightforward and we were extremely grateful for the patience shown by David both times. This patience, respect, manners, courtesy, advice and assistance extended to every member David’s staff (with a particular shout out to Alan who supervised and co-ordinated our moves). Having moved a number of times and dealt with different companies, after our last move five years ago, we returned to Moving Home Made Easy. David returned any calls, emails and texts promptly and displayed great patience with the logistical delays and changes we encountered. A very professional service and one that we would not hesitate to either recommend or use again ourselves. Linda & Ian.

David and his team really make moving home easy. From quoting for our double move and storage through to our final move to our new house the service was 5*. The care taken during our moves and to storage was beyond what we had hoped.
On the days of our moves the teams could not do enough for use and were so polite and mannerly. They performed an outstanding service on both moves for which we are truly thankful.
Looking for a removal company - look no further Moving Home Made Easy lives up to their name.
Thanks to you all.

We selected MovingMadeEasy from 3 quotes - their pricing was competitive and importantly they did not charge additional fees for waiting times whilst we waited to collect keys or working past specific time - which for us, was just as well as we did not receive our keys until 4pm!

Team arrived in the morning with 2 vans and 4 personnel - all were very polite and careful with boxes and goods. - Guys went at their own pace and didn't rush - which was fine as we didn't have keys and secondly it was a very hot day (25c)

After we finally received keys the guys were onsite quickly and starting to unload - team worked very hard in hot conditions and were again careful with all items there were no breakages or damaged items :)
In addition, the team also re-built cot which had to be dismanteled initiallly and also moved couple of larger items between rooms.

Would absolutely recommend this company to family and friends.

I moved house at the weekend and the team that arrived to carry out my move were professional from start to finish. Starting by introducing themselves, this gave me an immediate feeling of confidence in them. The guys carried out the job with ease and care. They didn't make a single complaint about the many many stairs they had to climb either. They were so polite and very very tidy, putting items where I requested and ensured everything was packed correctly, especially all of my fragile items. Even when one of the boxes I had packed fell apart, they immediately repacked it for me. I have never encountered such a stream-lined move, without any hassle. They really do live up to their company name, as they did make my home move easy!! Thank you David, and your team are amazing. I recommend these guys without a doubt.

A fantastic and professional service from start to finish. David and his team provide a first-class service, where nothing is any trouble.

From packing on a Sunday, to some emergency overnight storage and finally to unpacking the house, this was a service like no other.

Every item was packed carefully and nothing was damaged. An old Japanese tea set which lost pieces during previous house moves survived intact. A remarkable feat!

The flooring was covered was up in both houses and the polite team ensured everything was perfect.

This is a company which lives up to its name!

A big thank you to the Moving Home Made Easy team for taking the stress out of our move across country. Thorough, efficient and friendly from start to finish, they collected our furniture and possessions and stored them overnight, at no extra cost, giving us more time to collect keys. The team travelled the following day and delivered our things in perfect order, making the move-in painless.
Moving house is full of uncertainties but we were always confident that MHME would get us there with minimum fuss. We would certainly go straight to MHME if we move again. Great job.

Service cost: £1300

I would highly recommend using MHME as your home removal company as they provide a very professional and efficient service.
We had to change our moving date several times and David was particularly accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble and he was always available by text or phone with any query. He promptly responded to all messages and emails and has a very calm and relaxed manner which really helped allay any concerns we had ahead of our house move.
Alan and his team arrived promptly on the morning of our move and each member of the team introduced themselves on entering our property. They were each courteous, friendly & professional and worked swiftly on the job. Nothing was too much trouble. Our property and belongings were respectfully and carefully handled. All in all they really were terrific. Not the cheapest and not the dearest but definitely worth going with!

Research has shown that moving home is more stressful than a relationship breakdown, divorce or even a new job so I was expecting the worst when I moved on the 23rd August. Working with Moving Home Made Easy, certainly took the stress out of the move, and if fact, the team were fantastic. From the initial meeting with David Reed, the preparation for me with additional wardrobe boxes delivered ahead of time, and the service on the day was nothing short of outstanding. The team were on time, efficient, friendly and respectful with all my things and myself from start to finish. What a lovely team of hard working gentleman.

To finish off the service, there was an error in my acceptance contract that the washing machine was to be included, which I didn't know about and took my machine with me to my new home. As a result, the new owners requested it back. I contacted David and he came out of his way to collect the washing machine, pick up all the boxes, and delivered back to the owners free of charge from Ayrshire to Glasgow. Outstanding service and without doubt, made my move easy. Highly recommend David, Alan and all the great team at Moving Home Made Easy - Anne B.

Service cost: £1120

David and his team get a 100% rating from us.

From the first visit through the final wave goodbye the whole service was outstanding. Brilliant communication, brilliant working methods. What impressed me most initially was the thoroughness and careful attention that was paid to drawing up the inventory. Everything was accounted for and a really clear outline of the process was offered. With the move itself, the team were really friendly and helpful, making sure to ask questions when anything needed clarification and treating every item with genuine care. The install was seamless. The team were so efficient, quickly gaining an understanding of the site and setting up a smooth working process. The job was done in no time. Everything arrived without a mark and because of the careful packing and labelling, we were able to find everything easily. Moving can be so stressful with these guys all the hassle was taken out of it. Genuinely, can’t recommend them enough!
