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

Move from St Albans to London.

Alfie and his team were very helpful moving a few treasured belongings from St Albans (not Bedford which I cannot delete) to South London for me and my niece. All arrived promptly, all safe and were carefully put back together. The additional journey to my niece was bolted on and all done for a sensible price. Many thanks.

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

St Albans Removals, Co. & Staff- excellent service.

We were fortunate to have St Albans Removals move us from St Albans to Hayes recently. We found them to be professional and friendly, caring of our possessions, calm and methodical, prompt and very very helpful. In fact they even fixed things that we had previously broken too (ie. a smoke detector on the ceiling) - a first class service. When we moved 3 years ago and were moved by another removal company, we were quoted a very cheap price BUT we ended up paying double the quoted price because that company charged by the hour.  St Albans Removals is not like this. St Albans Removals give you one fixed price for the whole job, how ever long it takes, and the price they quote is the price you pay. Which is brilliant! You know exactlly how much it will cost you. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending St Albans Removals (www.stalbans-removals.co.uk) to anyone wishing for a smooth, calm, first class and reasonably priced move. We will most definately use them again in the future.

Long-distance move from Luton, Bedfordshire to Norwich, Norfolk

House removal St Albans to Norwich.

We used St Albans Removals for a house move from St Albans to Norwich. They got the job done in one day, despite a long drive there and back, price-matched a competitor, and helped at every stage of the move, from providing boxes to advice on how to pack a garage full of junk! Alf, the owner, is very friendly as were all the team.

St Albans Removals.

We were moving furniture and boxes from a storage unit in Luton to a house in St Albans. Alfie and his assistant did an excellent job. We found them to be prompt, courteous and they got the job done quickly and with care. St Albans Removals were competitively priced and charged what we had previously agreed. I would recommend St Albans Removals.

3 bed in Marshalswick to 2 bed in Fleetville, St Albans.

Moved from 3 bed in Marshalswick, St Albans to 2 bed in Fleetville, St Albans. Overall a great service from Alfie and the team. Great price due to low content and lack of bulky items to be moved. Boxes dropped off a few days prior to move, arrived promptly on the day at 9.30am, everything moved and unloaded by 3.30pm. Would use again.
