Professional and pleasant

They were the most helpful, professional company I approached. They were the only one who could accommodate the date of our move when we had such short notice. The admin staff, the person quoting us a price for the move and most importantly the Removers were all helpful and pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend them.

International shipments from Uk to Canada

I shipped my household belongings from England to Canada, and everything arrived safely and in perfect condition.

Charlotte kept me consistently informed via email and responded promptly to all of my questions. I truly appreciate the professionalism and clear, reliable communication throughout the entire process.

Everyone involved, including the movers, was highly professional. The movers took great care to ensure that my property was handled properly and arrived without any damage.

Thank you for such an excellent experience.

Pickfords provided an excellent service

To arrange and book a date staff were very helpful and informative. Pickfords were NOT the dearest quote we had. The removal guys, 3 of them very polite and curtious, they worked very hard loading a full house of furniture and belongings from a third floor flat with no lift to a ground floor flat where they patiently waited while we were waiting to get the key to our new property. They did amazing, nothing was a trouble to them. Excellent service.

We appreciate you sharing your experience. We're happy to hear that our staff were helpful during booking and that the removal team provided excellent service, especially with the challenges of moving from a third-floor flat, who needs a gym membership :-) . It's great to know their hard work and patience were appreciated.

I will ensure your kind words are passed on to all involved.

The Pickfords Team were fantastic from start to finish. Professional, friendly and highly diligent in their execution of our move. Regularly checking in with us to ensure we were happy with item placement, and quick to ask any clarifying questions. This is the second time we've used Pickfords, and will continue to recommend and use them again. Furthermore the team took great care with all our soft furnishings, fragile items and our piano !

Lost valuables never to be seen again.

They lost some valuables with sentimental and financial value. These items did go on the crate and I am very disappointed with Pickfords and would never use them again. They have very poor after care.

Platinum standards

Chris T, who gave us the quote using video call was amazing, Bryony on the emails organisong stuff, Chris C who was move coordinator was also amazing, the lads which turned up David, Jamie, Mark and Michael couldn't have been nicer, turned up on time, called ahead. They worked exceptionally hard loading whilst being professional and super friendly, but loaded logically, and left by the time they said. We had a delay with keys and they were all brilliant waiting and worked so hard unloading. They were careful with all our stuff, had a nice chat and laugh despite working...I honestly feel we got a platinum standard service. It feels like a local family business how well everyone got on and how quocl.and helpful they all were. Would recommend them to anyone and if we moved again i wouldn't even consider anyone else. Perfect all round. I cant thank them enough.
