Via removals were excellent in helping us move. They were very friendly and worked incredibly hard to make our move as easy as possible. Some of our furniture was very heavy and would have been impossible for us to handle ourselves but the team managed to move everything without any problems. Was well worth the (very reasonable) cost. We would use them again.

Via Removals did a brilliant job, with our move. Kaas visited our house prior to moving date, and provided a quote, which was competitive and answered all our questions, giving us all the time we wanted. Kaas was always available to discuss the move, even in the days leading up to the big day. On the day of the move, Kaas and his colleagues, arrived promptly, and began by protecting carpets / flooring. His staff members were always courteous, and smiling, and kept alleviating our anxieties. They performed a brilliant job, moving heavy objects, dismantling furniture etc. Very time efficient, and hard working, I must say. We were told we would need two vehicles for the move, however, it turned out mid-process that we required another vehicle – this was accommodated by doing a ‘second run’, at no extra cost, or discussion. We are very pleased with the whole process, and we would recommend Kaas and his team to anyone who requires this service. Kaas and his team even returned to our house the next day, to assemble our furniture – again, they were accommodating of our needs, and did not hesitate when we requested that the furniture be moved to a different place in the room. Given the high costs of removal services in general, Via Removals provided a very good quote and this did not change, irrespective of any additional work that was required – that’s commitment! Very happy customer(s).

do not touch this firm with a barge pole, they totally rip you off on the day you are moving so you have no choice but to pay all the extras they charge you, when we first booked them they asked me what type of house we were moving, I told them it was a three bed house and everything that goes with it, on the day a 3.5 ton van turned up which is absolutely useless, I spoke to the office and they said they will send another van but at an extra cost of £395, like I said it was completion day so we had to move, they just rammed everything in, not protecting anything with blankets, and low and behold we have a very damaged dining chair. we could see they were never going to fit it all in the two vans so we did 4 car runs with the stuff that was left, the cost didn't stop there, the vans rushed off to the new house even though we hadn't completed up to this point , within 30 mins we had a call from the driver say ing they are at the house and we will be charged £65 an hour waiting time, this company should be looked at by trading standards as I believe they do this on a regular basis. keep well clear!!!!!!!!!

Dear Customer, we feel this review is completely false and an unfair representation of our company. We record each call made and received by our office, and we have listened back to your conversation in which you make very clear not everything from the house is moving. We carried out your survey and created an inventory over the phone, as you refused a home visit by our surveyor. We were contracted to move 30 items so a 3.5-ton vehicle was sufficient, on the move day you informed our staff the whole house needed moving including the shed and its contents. We arranged for an additional vehicle which of course came at an additional cost. All your contents were protected in high quality wrap, we provided a free dismantling and assembly service for your beds and moved the contents of your shed all of which we were not contracted for. We also informed you prior to the move we accept payments in Cash or bank transfer to avoid charges incurred by card transactions, but you insisted on paying by card. Our staff worked tirelessly to ensure your move was smooth, and we have never been contacted about any breakages. Our T&C’s clearly state there is a £65.00 per hour key waiting time which is completely normal across the industry. Our 6 guys and 2 vehicles were left waiting close to 5 hours outside your new property. We feel we carried out your move to the best of our ability and your feedback is unfair. We thank you for your custom. Replied by Kass (Area Manager)’
