      4 bed house removal

      Alfie, Matt and Arran helped us to move from Chorleywood to Harpenden yesterday. We are a family of 6 so a lot of things to move! Alfie and his guys are hard working, efficient and always smiling with a good sense of humour! They made a stressful process much better for family with young kids and I would recommend their service.

      Move whitin St Albans.

      I hate writing bad reviews and normally don't but our experience with St Albans removals and Alfie was exceptionally bad.

      Initially on the phone with Alfie, after I clearly listed all we have to move and moving literally 5 minutes away, we were told a price of 'around £450'. Then on inspecting our contents and opening all our cupboards and draws which we found very weird especially as we said we will be packing ourselves, we were told 'around £900'. We said their price seems unreasonable and we don't like the 'around'. He asked how much we are willing to pay, we said not more than £750. Agreed.

      But then as our house was not ready for us to move in on the agreed day, we called Alfie to ask if we could postpone the move for a couple of days as we have a two year old child and we will not have heating and hot water in the new house nor a working kitchen. Very rudely he stopped me talking and said none of it is his problem and he will not move the day at all, he will await a confirmation for the day already agreed then put the phone down. We already had a bad feeling about this company and their boss, this just confirmed our feelings and we really didn't like how manipulative he…

    • the fixed price has to move due to the size of the move is not what was assumed by each party.

      Great service.

      Alfie and guys(Liam and Ricky) were very professional took care of all the stuff. Loading the prepacked falt and packing the kitchen. The guys took care of the fragile stuff very well. Made sure to ask us where we wanted our furniture in the new place and assembled the ones if requested. All in all happy with the service provided. A tip to remember if booking them,always request them to visit the property prior to the move else there are awkward moments where the fixed price has to move due to the size of the move is not what was assumed by each party. Happens to the best of us. Alfie gave us a good deal, covered the second trip without charge for the extra bits. Would definitely do business again. Cheers guys!

Our move and storage.

We moved from a 5 bed to a 3 so there was a lot to organise and some to store.
Alfie and his team helped with both.
They did all our packing and storing and were amazing..
Also helped that they stayed calm whilst we got freful, I would highly recommend this team.
Helps enormously that they were 2K cheaper than Pickfords too!!

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.
