EXCELLENT Based on 30 reviews Posted on amanda goodeyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a great service. From the moment that Martin stepped inside our house, I knew that this was the removal company for us. That, and the fact that all communication with Richard was prompt, honest and he got back to me when he said he would! Booking the correct date was stressful as solicitors are really not very helpful so in the end I had to take the plunge and hope for the best. Luckily it worked out well. On moving day, Simon and Isaac arrived nice and early and got stuck in. A larger team had packed for us, a few days before and this was fantastic. It amazed me at the speed that they worked and I felt that they really took care with our belongings. Once we had the keys, unpacking was prompt and with 2 hours all of the beds were made, furniture positioned and cups of tea were in hand. I can’t thank everybody enough and would definitely recommend!!Posted on Madeleine PakulaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service from Martin and the rest of the team, would definitely recommend Simply Moving. They took a lot of the stress out of our house move- money well spent!Posted on Joe CooperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team were fantastic from start to finish. So professional and made everything so easy. Communication was great the whole way through, and there weren't any hidden charges added on at the end so the quote that they gave initially was accurate as well which is rare. We had a situation were our move date was rushed through and we were actually abroad until the evening of the night before the move. Simply Moving came to the house the day before whilst we were still on our house and packed the whole house up for us anyway even though we weren't there to help, and nothing was missed at all. Couldn't recommend them enough, in fact we did to our friends that have just moved and they have had a similar experience too!!Posted on AnonymousTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great job and team that helped the process of moving go through so smoothlyPosted on One Drop Nina LaurentiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Would recommend Simply Moving Removals to anyone needing to move house, this is the second time we have used them and the team were great, we did not have full house to move so went with the half hourly option, they arrived on time and did not waste time getting the items into the Van and to the new house.Posted on Sandie NicholsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5th time the Simply Moving team have provided a full pack and removals service for me, and each time it is exceptional! No breakages in any of those moves. They consistently hold a 'can do' attitude, nothing is too much bother and their staff are friendly, efficient and professional. The full pack service means beds, wardrobes etc are deconstructed prior to move, and then reconstructed in the new home. On occasion, I have tagged on some unpacking, using their half hourly rate, to lighten the load on the other enough.. Can't recommend this company highly enough!Posted on Simon LewisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Polite, efficient, careful, tidy, turned up on time and worked really hard for the time they were booked. It's the 2nd time I've used Simply Moving and would recommend them highly.Posted on Ed BryningTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Simply Moving in December 24. The exchange date had slipped several times until it was pretty much the last Friday before Christmas. We had a couple of other movers that we had been speaking to but availability disappeared as the date slipped so it was almost as a last resort that we used Simply Moving and we were slightly nervous. However, we were really pleased with the move in terms of the team working through the morning to get us out and then in by the afternoon with no damages. An excellent service and very well priced.Posted on Samuel BrownTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hands down the best moving/removals company around. They made the move completely stress free and easy. Would definitely use them again.
Flexible Start Times to Suit Your Move
We understand that moving day rarely runs to a perfect schedule. For fixed price removals, especially where you are waiting on key release or completion, we tailor your start time around when you need to vacate your current property. This is discussed in advance to ensure the day runs as smoothly as possible.
For hourly removals, charged in half-hour increments, we offer flexible start times throughout the day. Typical options include early morning, midday, afternoon or evening starts. There is no strict limit on how long you can have the team, and we always work efficiently and safely to give you the best value for your move.
Your Dedicated Removal Team
Your removal team is allocated based on the specific requirements of your move. If your property has difficult access, stairs, lifts or restricted parking, we plan accordingly. Some moves require additional movers or multiple vehicles rather than a single large truck, and we organise this in advance.
If your move involves multiple pick-up or drop-off locations, this can also be arranged. Every local move is planned to suit the property, access and logistics involved, ensuring nothing is rushed or overlooked.
Furniture Dismantling and Reassembly
Our removal vehicles are fully equipped with the tools needed to dismantle and reassemble furniture as part of your move. Beds, wardrobes and larger items can be taken apart and rebuilt at your new home by our team.
If you know in advance that furniture dismantling will be required, letting us know helps us plan the right team size and timings. There are a few tasks we cannot carry out, such as electrical disconnections or wall mounting, but if you are unsure about anything, just ask and we will advise.
Optional Packing Services
Packing is often the most time-consuming part of moving home. Our professional packing service is designed to free up your time and remove stress. Usually completed the day before your move, our team carefully packs everything for you, from kitchen items and fragile belongings to pictures, garages and storage areas.
Each item is wrapped and boxed properly, clearly labelled by room, and prepared for safe transport. Furniture dismantling and reassembly is included, and unpacking services are also available if you want extra support at your new home.
All packing materials are included in the service, and once you have unpacked, we return to collect boxes and materials for reuse or recycling. With Simply Moving, you can focus on the legal and practical side of moving while we handle the heavy lifting.
