We did consider asking our family to help out with hiring vans etc – although this would have been a cheaper solution. Also it would have lacked the professionalism needed as some of the items were extremely fragile. The other important factor for removal service was distance involved, as we were moving from just outside London to Fife in Scotland.     What were your requirements for a removal service company? There were two main requirements. Firstly, to move our…

Happy2Move did a great job moving my belongings from North London to Walthamstow. Manny asked for detailed information about the job to be sure that there was sufficient space in the van and the quote I received had no hidden extras. Very pleased with the whole experience.

From the initial enquiry to the confirmation, I was kept fully informed. The guys turned up on time and were very polite and helpful. They removed the items from our flat, transported them to the ground floor and loaded onto their van. They then drove the van to the storage units behind our flat, unloaded the contents, carried them down the stairs and neatly stacked them between the two units. I dealt with Manny throughout the process and I would have no hesitation in recommending him and his team for anyone looking for similar or other moves. Their services are first class both in quality and price.
