CJS Removals.

CJS Removals did a brilliant job for us ! CJS are a local family firm and loads cheaper than the likes of Pickfords. The staff were friendly and professional and really went out of their way to help us. They took all the stress out of the moving day and provided everything we needed to move home. The van arrived early and delivered everything in perfect condition. Totally recommended.  .

Service cost: £700

CJS Removals.

We just wanted to write to say thank you for making the move go so smoothly. The guys were really friendly, helpful and hard working and provided and excellent service. The fragile packing service was especially impressive with everything packed safely and securely. It was a shame that we were delayed at the new house but once we were allowed in they worked hard and fast to get everything to the right room. We have been very impressed with CJS from the initial visit to the final move and would certainly recommend them in the future.

George Bird Removals.

Thank you for the exemplary way in which your staff carried out my move last week.they were all on time and dedicated to giving me the best service possible. I was particularly impressed by the care taken in wrapping the delicate items. The company helped no end to take care to alleviate the possible discomforts of the move! I would have no doubts about recommending George Bird as a removal company.

George Bird / CJS Removals.

Several people recommended George Bird to us, and it was slightly confusing as CJS Removals is apparently the same company.
In any case we were exceptionally pleased with the service provided. Everything was arranged at very short notice because of the timescale on our house purchase. Chloe in the office was absolutely charming and very accommodating and helpful.
Martin and Darren came to pack the day before the move. They were incredibly efficient, there was literally nothing for us to do!
On the day of the move there were 5 professional, quick, polite members of staff who carried everything down our 5 flights of stairs without even breaking a sweat. We were amazed at how they lifted full chests of drawers and other heavy items, they packed everything quickly and carefully and even dismantled a desk for us, before reassembling it at our new home.
I cannot recommend this company highly enough. We felt very extravagant paying other people to pack our belongings but it was absolutely worth every penny. If you are hesitating about whether to have the packing service as well as the move, definitely do it. They were so quick and efficient and achieved in a few hours what would have taken us days. Everything seemed to happen incredibly quickly and we were absolutely delighted with the service provided. We were particularly impressed with the way our boxes were labelled - not just "kitchen" but detail such as "mugs, kettle" etc made unpacking and settling in much easier.
Highly highly recommended and I wouldn't hesitate to use CJS / George Bird again.

Businesses Services.

I use CJS as my company often need to move some delicate models to exhibitions. They have always been reliable and efficient, with a professional attitude when they come into the office environment to collect.  The items are very delicate and of high value and have always been well protected and arrived in tact both in the UK and Europe. As a corporate client Paul is our Relationship Manager and I would highly recommend him and his team for their professionalism and attention to detail.

Office Move.

CJS Removals did an excellent job in our office move and accommodated professionally to our demands even on short notice. The team who did the move were friendly and helpful, and they made the move happen a lot smoother than we had hoped for. We hold no reservations in recommending this company to anyone who expects a great service and we would surely be using them in the future.

CJS Removals London to High Wycombe.

Clever marketing of a leaflet through the door whilst the for sale sign was up was the first we knew of CJS Removals.  We decided to invite them to quote along with three other firms.  The salesman came round at a convenient time and made notes as we went round every room and included garden and garage (one firm relied on me filling in an on-line form rather than visit; they were not considered).  When we received the quote shortly after, it was broken down into all the services they offered allowing us to choose how much we wanted to do ourselves.  We decided to take up the full package of CJS doing the packing, dismantling and re-assembling at our new home and their quote saved us hundreds of pounds against the other firms.  At this stage we didn't have a firm date for moving but this was no problem for CJS who penciled in a date as soon as we had a probale date. Soon the date was confirmed and CJS arranged to come the day before to pack most of the non-essentials leaving anything we said we needed.  They arrived at the agreed time and worked through most of the day packing everything agreed before taking the van to their secure storage over night.  On the day of the move the team again arrived on time and everything was safely packed by about 12:10. CJS met us at the new house and with great efficiency carefully moved every box into the house/garage/shed as we required and re-assembled all the bigger furniture in its correct position.  I was amazed at how quickly the van was empty and the house was full of boxes. Overall we were extremely happy with the Service we received from CJS from start to finish.  The removal team were on time, very polite and checked what we wanted whenever it was needed.  All the items were packed safely and securely and nothing was damaged or broken in the move with every reassembled item as good as prior to the move.  Apparently moving is suppossed to be stressful, with these professionals the move itself could not have been smoother and I would recommend CJS to anybody moving house.

CJS Removals.

CJS moved 'me' from Harrow to Slough on 30th May. The men came the day before to pack everything and I was impressed with the speed and efficiency with which this was undertaken.  All boxes were marked with contents and rooms where they were taken from.  All fragile items were carefully bubble wrapped.  They part loaded the removal lorry on the Thursday and came back the next morning to finish the packing  and loading.  There was a delay in collecting the keys but the lorry was waiting outside the house when we arrived.  The lorry was unloaded very speedily and boxes placed where we requested them.  The guys were all very courteous and helpful and very efficient.   I would have no hesitation in using CJS again and recommending them to my friends.

Service cost: £1400

Great service a a great price.

CJS moved us from Edgware to Huntingdon. Paul and his crew were brilliant.  They came the day before we moved and boxed up all of our things ready for the move the following day. All the boxes were packed with paper or bubble wrap to protect the contents and the boxes were marked up for the individual rooms. The crew worked extremely hard all day and put the boxes in the rooms for us.  I would certainly recommended them to anyone.  Great service at a great price thank you CJS.

The relaxed way to move!

When someone does something well you just have to write about it and let others know.  After receiving a few quotes from various removal companies we settled on CJS based not only on price but also reviews read on line which were exemplary.  Well now I know why they were so good.  As soon as they arrived they just went to it,  the speed at which they wrapped was amazing but more importantly the way they wrapped was equally amazing, with not one item being vaguely damaged.  Even my sons shells which were meticulously wrapped individually!  The guys were all lovely really friendly and incredibly professional.  When we got to our destination yet again I was amazed by the speed at which they worked but also their attention to detail.  No walls, stairs or doors had any slight marks on when taking furniture upstairs and believe me they had to take some large pieces of furniture round some very tight bends!  We have only moved out for a short period as we are having building work done to our house and will be moving back within the coming year.  Would I try another company? Absolutely no way!
