Long Distance Move with Storage

Dave and the team assisted my partner and I with a short-notice move collecting everything from a 3 bedroom house and storage unit, storing it all for 3 weeks and then delivering it all in a single day to our new address 3 hours away. This is the second time we have worked with Dave after he carried out a single day move for my parents. On both occasions the accuracy of quotations and timescales, level of service and communication we received from Reliable was outstanding. The team that both collected and delivered our items were extremely hard working, respectful and careful to ensure that things weren't damaged and that they were put in whatever locations we asked, no matter how awkward. I have already recommended Reliable to others and will continue to do so in the future given the way I've seen them operate.

Move size: 4 Bedroom Home Service cost: £5000

Official company response

Thanks Andy, It was a pleasure working for you. I am equally pleased your move went exactly as planned and your appreciation of the hard work & planning to make everything run smoothly.
Myself & the team wish you both every happiness in your new home.

Superb Removals

A big thank you to Dave, George and Kieron for moving our "small" 2-bed house & overflowing garage from Essex to East Kent in the worst weather possible. We were really impressed with the speed and efficiency that the team used in getting everything packed up and relocated. The communication from start to finish was without fault and Dave updated us with ETAs for the entire process.

We also had items in storage, which were packaged carefully & professionally

Would 110% recommend Reliable Moving & Storage for any move, whether near or far.

Thank you guys so much for making a stressful day more bearable.

Long-distance move from Basildon, Essex to Witham, Essex

Great Service

Dave and his team done an amazing job, moved out from storageking basildon (honestly wished I knew about Reliable Moving & Storage before, I would have saved a lot of money). They met me at 0800 on time, took about 2 hours to load up and then a hour or so to unload, was all wrapped up by 12.

I highly recommend Dave and his team

REliable Moving

Excellent service and a competitive price. There was a decent sized library to move down sixty stairs in boxes! A team of five worked like trojans. It started on time and was fast. Would certainly recommend them to anyone.
