Long-distance move from York, North Yorkshire to York, North Yorkshire

House clearance - highly recommended

Andrew and his team of two arrived on time to clear out my mother's house following her move into a care home.

They came highly recommended - and no wonder - they took all the 'stress' out of a very stressful situation.

They worked with care and speed and sorted items for Auction, charity, and skipping - they wrapped boxed delicate items and found a few 'lost treasures' and returned them. All items where then delivered to the right places leaving me with an empty house.

Simply excellent service and such lovely people. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andrew and his team at Hooks.

Fast & highly efficient tailored service

My family and I have used Hooks 3x over the last few years for house moves, storage and transport (within York area and also from York to Staffordshire). I can’t fault Andrew and his team at all who are friendly and courteous. They advised and tailored our needs prior and during to the moves and everything went perfectly.

Very good advice on maximizing charity +recycling opportunities and estimating storage space needed. Also, very clear, simple and competitive pricing.

If you’re around York area please support this local family business!

International move from York, North Yorkshire to Dublin, Dublin

Removal to Ireland.

I would go nowhere near this company. They returned my mothers property damaged and items missing. A dinner service in a suitcase, a missing drawer in an antique sidebord, painting missing, weights from a grandmother clock packed with a stereo. When I refused to use their 3 Van's for transport to Ireland they refused to release property until payed in full, knowing damaged items and property missing and no will not answer emails.
If you value your property, go nowhere near them.

Service cost: £4000

Official company response

Dear Mrs Waugh, thanks for sharing your feedback. We take these matters very seriously and are sorry to hear that you had an unhappy experience.

You stored items with our storage partner for a long period of time and were charged accordingly. We take great pride in a long history of treating our customers possessions with the greatest care but unfortunately we are not able to take responsibility for items reported missing/damaged after they were moved to Ireland by a different removals company.

Please do contact us if you still feel these issues are unresolved – 01904 762609.

Long-distance move from York, North Yorkshire to York, North Yorkshire

House packing

We chose Hooks to pack up our antique holiday cottage before we rented it long term. Andrew was exceedingly courteous, prompt and efficient throughout. He provided a detailed estimate and a soon appointment. He arrived - and finished - exactly on time. He provided his own excellent range of packing materials and worked fast but always with punctilious attention to our many fragile antiques. His price for the work was very reasonable. We should be delighted to use Hooks again and again

Driffield to Allerton Bywater

Andrew and his lovely lads moved my 81 yrs old mum. What I thought was going to be a stressful day for my mum was made so much easier. Andrew and his team were punctual,very well mannered and very courteous. The whole team worked really hard to make this big move for mum a hassle and pain free experience even working around a very excited yapping dog! Not one single damaged item. All items put in correct rooms on arrival. I would highly recommend Hooks Removals for anyone seeking a first class removal service.

Long-distance move from Yorkshire to Yorkshire

Local move within York

Early in 2022 we shipped our belongings from a large house in North Florida to York, where they occupied two very large storage units for well over a year, until we were able to buy a house in York. Over two days, Hooks moved our belongings from the storage units into our new home, and were very friendly, helpful and professional throughout. We could not be more pleased, and will certainly use their services again in the future. We highly recommend them!

House move

These guys moved my parents from York to Wakefield and nothing was too much trouble. They are extremely professional, polite and very reasonably priced. They kept in contact up to the move date as this was put back a few times and new move dates agreed.

I wouldn’t use anyone else as the service from start to finish was outstanding and they took the stress out of the actual move.

Thank you so much

Long-distance move from Cambridgeshire to Yorkshire

Excellent movers

Moved back into York from a couple of hours away using Hooks for the second time. They were amazing as they were the first time.

This moved needed 2 vans and 3 guys, they arrived on time and were so friendly they made what is always a stressful experience much easier.

They are super professional and expert movers (and quick) but always made me laugh throughout and were really helpful with everything. Both times I’ve used Hooks I have found I’ve had no need to worry about my belongings or the property, they take really good care of everything and made sure I was completely happy with where everything was after unloading.

I would never use a different firm after two great moving experiences with Hooks. Cannot compliment them enough.

Thanks so much guys!
