Better Removals made the process of moving to Plymouth from Biggleswade so much smoother for us. Charlie and Ben wete so efficient and helpful. They arrived exactly on time and were so hardworking and patient at both ends of the transition. All of our belongings arrived safetely and carefully placed at the end of our journey. We can't thank them enough and would defimitely recommend them to anyone else moving home.

Despite chasing and chasing, filling in forms taking photo's and doing everything asked of me, you can't even get a quote from these people and I was recommended by my agent, I don't believe even if we agreed to a quote I would have any faith in them turning up, Such a shame as I used them to move before, I don't normally leave negative reviews but feel I needed to as they have wasted so much of not only my time but also their own.

Received a quote for a 3 bedroom house removal to a 2 bedroom half a mile away from each other. No packing or dismantle of items literally just put the stuff on a lorry and take it off the other end, 3 hours work tops. Bearing in mind 1 of my bedroom's is empty so essentially moving 2 into a 2 charge 1700. Why because it's a peak time! I have worked within the housing market sector for a lot of years and never have I heard of peak times for moving! Got 3 much better quotes from other reputable firms, who don't look to rip you off because you want to move in September!

We recently used Better Removals to move house. They were brilliant from the very start. They arrived on time and instantly took charge, putting us at ease. I would highly recommend this company for any house moves, I would certainly use them again in the future. Services: In-county removals, Local removals

I moved home from Cambridgeshire to Merseyside which was quite daunting. The removal guys turned up on time, knew what they were doing and great. This was during Covid 19 epidemic that made things all the more harder for them. They were able to move me in a day with no mishaps, no damage to items and properties. I would strongly recommend this company who have been brilliant throughout, thanks to all involved.

Charlie and James were brilliant. They were on time, cracked on and loaded the van by midday. We didn't get the keys until 5pm. When we got to our new home they had about 6 guys in total lugging things from the van to our home. They all worked so hard to get us moved in. I can't fault them. Thank you to the staff who all joined in to help. You made a stressful day seem okay! We would highly recommend.

I have used Better removals and Pickfords within the last 2 years, although more expensive, Pickford's are worth every additional penny. Better Removals' operatives are not bad guys, however, they do not supply a sufficient amount of labour to efficiently deal with the workload and they therefore rush everything. They caused damage to a tumble dryer, mirror and large chest of drawers, as well as digs and dents in walls, I only claimed for the damaged mirror as it will cost a fair amount to replace, the whole claims process has been long winded, made as difficult as possible, and ultimately I am now out of pocket. They are a company with no idea about customer service and its importance.

A few weeks back I used better removals to move me from Baldock to Manchester. The guys handled the job fantastically and with real professionalism from start to finish. I can really say that they took the burden of stress off my shoulders and despite having a 4 hour journey back after the job was finished didn't leave until they'd made sure I was totally happy with where everything was. I can not recommend better removals highly enough.

We moved from Harlow to a nearby Village on the 16th Feb 2018. The removals team of Rhys and Ben arrived early in two of the smaller lorries. From the start they were very professional and put our mind at ease. Nothing was too much trouble. Everything was packed up fairly quickly with no hassle. We then had to wait several hours for the keys to our new property to our frustration.
I phoned the Ben and Rhys to let them know and again there were polite and professional despite hours being added to their day. Once we had the keys everything was moved in quickly but without rushing. Everything was put in the correct room and everything treated with care. I couldn’t praise them highly enough even having a laugh and joke with them throughout the day.
The whole service was highly professional from the initial contact to the quote, the box delivery through to the actual move. Would highly recommend Better Removals. Great service at a reasonable price!

Can't recommend Better Removals enough! These guys were very accomodating despite me changing dates more than once, and Paul and Mac who came out on the day were brilliant. Do yourself a favour and hire Better Removals. Hard work, cheerful service and high standards - all at a good price too. Perfect!
