Removal Van Recommendations
November 08, 2010, 01:16:25 pm
I couldn't find a thread about this

Moving from Sheffield, though I guess with larger firms the location isn't so much an issue.

Anyway I've never hired movers before and would really appreciate any advice.


Thanks

When we moved a while ago we used Speights. http://www.henryspeight.co.uk/
Professional and cheap I seem to remember.
Been doing it since 1891 it says on their site

I hired movers first time last time.  I say I.  The missus did.  She asked on a forum for a recommendation, and got one for some polish dudes.  They rocked up, didn't like her tea, busted a gut and moved everything very quickly.

They didn't box it though - we saved cash by doing that.  Apparently they will come round and box everything for ya, but I think it costs much more.  But saves you the stress of boxing.

If you box yoursen, A1 boxes are the shit.  http://www.a1box.co.uk/

Another shout for Speights.
