      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!

Great removal company!

Alfie and the team ensured from start to finish that our move in St Albans was extremely smooth and efficient. From the beginning Alfie ensured we had packing materials delivered with ample time for us to pack and on the day, the team worked quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend!

The team were all very nice, friendly and respectful. We felt that our possessions were in safe hands. Very convenient as we were given the option to store our things overnight, which meant less hassle for the actual completion date. Very efficient and reliable service, would use again and recommend to friends. Thanks Alfie, Rick and team!

Long-distance move from St Albans, Hertfordshire to St Albans, Hertfordshire

A very good job

The weather was very good and I was only moving 6 doors away so Ricky, Ritchie and Billy physically carried everything from one place to the other carefully and well. Ricky and Billy's packing was excellent. I have a lot of stuff! Alfie oversaw it all really well too. And he fitted me in when nobody else could. Full marks to Alfie and his team.

House move

Alfie and his team were fantastic. We booked them a week before we moved and from the start Alfie was accommodating and communicative. He gave us a complete price for packing and moving which we felt was very competitive compared to other companies and the team worked tirelessly over the two days. We would certainly recommend St Albans Removals!

Assistance with removal and house clearance

Alfie was very helpful with advice for moving and disposing of unwanted furniture. He came to view the property and gave honest answers about cost and timings etc. Offered to take for free any furniture that could be given to charity. Went above and beyond to help out with final clearance to assist with house move.

Great moving experience

Just wanted to pass on my thanks to Alfie and his team, who moved us locally within St. Albans.

The entire team were punctual and hard working, and actually had us ready to leave our property a bit ahead of schedule. Alfie took a huge chunk of stress out of what is clearly a fairly unpleasant couple of days!

Thanks again!
