No recommendation but Hoults utterly trashed our possessions. God knows what roller coaster route they took but some items were smashed beyond repair. Over £3,000 damage in one van alone. They did the packing too.

Visiting all the websites of every removal company you can find online, and researching about their services can take up so much of your time and effort. If you want to find and hire the best movers for your removal needs, the fastest and the most hassle-free way of doing this by getting a free removal quotations online!

I would recommend Abracadabra Removals in North London, they were very friendly and professional. We were very careful about our selection process and searched for removals north London. They charged a fair price and we had fun with the movers. You can see their website Abracadabra Removals

We moved locally and used And Move. Pavel and his team worked phenomenally hard when packing the house and moving the next day. I used them on a recommendation and now could not recommend them highly enough to others. Thanks guys !

We were moving 3 bedroom house within London. We used Thames Removals, which we found on Checkatrade. We had 3 guys with 2 Luton vans and I must say they did an excellent job. They work very hard and the price is very good for the service they offer

Hi, when I loved to London from Reading last year, I used a great removal company called Four Square Removals: www.foursquareremovals.com/

The owner, Steve, did the job himself, and he was really chatty and interesting, telling me all about the celebrities he'd moved and the work he does in the Houses of Parliament moving office furniture! I had a really fun experience - not like most moves I've done in the past. His company has offices in SW London and Henley. Highly recommended.

I found his company by using a removals comparison website that a friend told me about. It's a cool way of finding more than one removal company at a time, so you can compare. If you want to check it out, it's www.buzzmove.com/

Hope that's useful for anyone looking to move in London or the Thames Valley area.

I hired elephant removals to pack my items and move. Overall rating for their service was 10 out of 10, excellent communication between myself, contractors and office team, everything was transparent and no hidden charges. Brilliant company would not hesitate to recommend. //www.elephantremovals.co.uk

Aside from getting recommendations from various people, you can also try searching the Internet for removal firms. In addition, why not consider getting quotes from these companies, so you’ll have an idea about the prices they charge? Doing all these can make your search much easier. While thinking about your question, I came across this link, www.themanwithvannetwork.com/removals-south-west, which might help you further in finding the best removal firm out there! Hope this helps.

We've used Elephant Removals for the first time to move within London and the overall result was amazing despite tricky access, bad weather and plenty of walking involved. We were shocked how quickly they moved, definitely a good Move and most importantly a good mood.

I've recently useAtlas Removals & Handymanin south-west London area and I was very pleased with their services. I'm a very busy person and I just needed someone to take care of the whole process while I was working on my own projects. I've found them online through my own Adsense ads :) after I've made some search on google and of course Google did map out my searches and it came up on my main website :). Their quote far best amongst the others, one of the main factor why I did try them.

We recently moved house from London to Brighton and had very bad experience with our removal company. I am not the type of person who name and ShameBrew

But all I can say from our personal experience always read the lines and check what service you getting I know cheaper price is tempting but you should know what you are paying for.

There many good companies in London e.g Pickford [[https://www.pickfords.co.uk ]] , Bishope Move, Apex Removals [[https://www.apex-removals.co.uk/branch/london/ ]] etc.

Get at least three quotes to compare before choosing the moving company.

Best of luck. Smile
