...your best recommendations for a removals company pleeeeease!!

We'll be moving from Murcia region in Spain back to the Northwest (HURRAH) in July EEEK. There's a Pickfords branch actually quite near us, has anyone used them before? Or does anyone know of a company they'd recommend? When we moved here it was on the cheap and we booked a miscellaneous Man With A Van who was good but I can't find him again!

Anyone ...?

Thank you!

Pickfords is supposed to be good. My SIL uses them and she has lots of nice things to protect

(sorry for late reply!)

Pickfords sounds promising - they actually have an office just up the coast I think, having taken a quick look at their website. Thanks! I¡ll give them a ring

Bonners moved us from uk to brussels and then from brussels to new zealand. gave us cheaper qoutes than pickfords and were fab.

I used pickfords to move from Candada to UK. They were v good - nothing was broken or mouldy. But I think they are more expensive than others.

If you look on british-expats.com they have an informal review of removals people.
