AMAZING
Nothing is too much to ask. We did a huge move from South of England to North Scotland and these guys were amazing. They took all of the stress out of it and could not have been anymore accommodating. Tony and Conell are an absolute credit to this company.

Excellent International Service
We were very pleased and impressed with the level of service we received from Brittania Leatherbarrows, when we packed up our home in Spain and moved to Suffolk in the UK. They were responsible for collecting our goods in Spain and delivering it all to Suffolk, and everything went exceedingly well. Steven and Chris were the 2 professionals who handled our move here in the UK and they were very efficient, careful, hardworking and trustworthy. And very nice they were too. We highly recommend Brittania Leathbarrows for moving and storage facilities.
Thank you again.
Jim and Mairi

Very good experience
We used Britannia last month to move from a storage unit in Dorset to our new home in Lancashire. We were very impressed with the crew - Neil James and another guy, a young chap who was not only super strong but incredibly polite. After a really terrible experience with a Britannia-affiliated company in Scotland, the Leatherbarrow crew really restored our faith in Britannia, which we had used before and had been very happy with.
Overall, efficient delivery, polite and respectful crew and actually a lower price than other removers had quoted us.

A continuing journey
We have just had the first part of our belongings returned out of storage. Neil asked Chris where superb. They arrived in time, extremely courteous and very patient with us as we are still living in a part building site!! Could not have been more helpful and supportive of our circumstances. Everything handled with care and respect. However, must say we have found all the people we have dealt with - the guys who came and packed up or home in the first place and those in the office - have been very good. Cannot recommend them enough. Just one more step to go to have all our home back together. Thank you all.

The house move
From start of the first assessment of the house contents to be moved to a new home in a different county , the process was well managed , friendly and professional
At all steps of the process from the packing to delivery and then collecting the used boxes it was easy and felt part of the contract
Thank you and would recommend the company in the future

Making moving fun!
Neil, Danny and Jordan came over today to remove precious family furniture and other items to storage prior to my house move.
They were on time and worked fast, but it wasn't just their efficiency that was so great. It was a difficult day for me, because I was recently widowed. They were sympathetic and fun, plus they made me laugh. Great team.

Neil and Andy are incredible
Neil and Andy did an absolutely incredible job helping me to move home. Despite some of my stuff being in carrier bags because I ran out of boxes, they cracked on without a single complaint.
They were incredibly efficient and just amazing people. I honestly would have been lost without them.

Short Notice Removal
Circumstances meant we needed to arrange a removals firm at short notice. Rob came to assess our needs and give a quote. Within two weeks we had arranged a date, Craig and Ade arrived and loaded a van that we never thought would be big enough and by mid afternoon my parents in law were in their new home. A huge thank you to everyone who made this happen.

Staff arrived when they said they would. They were helpful and well-organized, and quickly loaded the items.
I would recommend them to friends

House unpacking
Jordan, Chris, Dave and Neil were great in unpacking all our belongings after relocating from Belgium back to the UK. They were friendly, efficient and particularly helpful in unpacking items carefully as unfortunately the packing done in Belgium - which was done by another company - had not been done to a high standard. Would recommend and use again.

Absolutely horrible team
Absolutely horrible team. DO NOT USE. Rude, arrogant removal men. Broke the law by working day and night. One threw a tantrum in the middle of the car park and used disgraceful language. Blocked a fire exit and refused to move it. Also breaking the law. Abused the neighbours, refused to move when blocking entrances, and left unsafe material everywhere. Harassed a disabled woman, an elderly man, and a young lady, threatened people, and encouraged unsafe practices. They destroyed other people's property and seem to know how to behave in public.
