Mr Shifter was formed in 2003. We chose the name from the PG Tips advert featuring two chimps carrying a piano down the stairs. Can you ever forget Irene Handel saying, "Cooee Mr Shifter" causing the father and son to drop the piano and the immortal lines that followed. "Dad did you know the piano`s on my foot" to which the father replies, "You hum it son- I`ll play it!"
No we don`t drop piano`s but we are a father and son operation. In fact the family connection has grown because not only has my son in law joined the business but my 15 year son old helps us out as well. So you can rest assured of a hands-on personal service which is both efficient and reliable with a bit of banter thrown in for good measure!

The Really Moving website was really helpful in cutting down on the leg work involved in the move, easily finding local companies and accurate comparative prices.
Mr Shifter were very helpful and flexible, as we were working to short timescales with a complex move. They consulted us at all stages of the move, and took care of our belongings. I would certainly recommend.

Nothing was too much trouble for Paul and his team. Helpful advice from the very beginning. He did little extras the day before the move to ensure that the main move went very smoothly. A really great and economical service. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone.
