We moved last week with these guys, 4 energetic lads arrived and was very polite and helpful throughout the move. Packers came the day before to ensure everything was packed safely. Would highly recommend them to friends and family.

Long-distance move from Bedford, Bedfordshire to Bedford, Bedfordshire

Do Not Touch This Company.

We booked this company for our move, to supply storage for a month and then redelivery to our new house. The quote was reasonable and they seemed polite and helpful. Their website informs you that when you book you get free boxes and packing materials. When I asked when these would arrive I was told that the deal had now finished but they had applied a discount to our quote, although there is no evidence of this. On the day of the move - they were unprofessional, rude about the people who were moving into our house who had also booked them. Instead of two teams they had one team moving our buyers into our house and our stuff out. Consequently the move took over 12 hours!! 3 days after the move we received an email asking for a further £700 (we had already paid £1200 plus an additional £180 for boxes). When we questioned it we were met with highly unprofessional and rude responses via email. They then would not inform us of which the unit our furniture was being stored in and basically held our goods to ransom until we paid. After discussion with the Citizens Advice Bureau we paid "Under Protest" and informed them we would be seeking to reclaim the additional costs via the courts. After being told that they might not redeliver our goods if we took them to court I informed them I would contact the police as it would be classed as theft. That did the trick and they redelivered as agreed. However, once again they were rude and unprofessional, late delivering, and managed to lose a mattress and a bookcase for 4 days! Furniture was damaged and they have refused to take any responsibility. The photos posted are of the damage they caused to our furniture. We are currently actioning legal proceedings.

Service cost: £2000

Dear Mr Mardlin,
Thank you for your review, I hope you and your family have settled into your new home. However your review contains some incorrect information. Firstly you did not pay the amount stated, secondly your move did not take over 12 hours. we did your's and your friends move within 12 hours as we arrived at 8am to start and was finished the second load to store by 6pm- YOUR BEING 10 HOURS INCLUDING TWO TRIPS TO PETERBOROUGH STORE. We sent a four man team using two large 3.5 tonne vans your first load was taken to storage by 1pm on the move day. You was given a discount of 20% which you would of read within our terms that only one discount or offer can be used at any one time. you also did not pay £200 for our packing materials a discounted offer of £120 was refused and your purchased your boxes elsewhere at your cost and preference. I personally advised you not to send the items reported as damaged without adequate packaging your response to this was I don't care about a few scratches but then tried to claim on our insurance for something that was your own fault. your items was stored and returned to you minus a mattress and a cabinet which we did apologise for at the time and it was delivered back as soon as we located this. we would of been quite happy to claim for you had the item of been protected properly upon its collection. You was not at the property when the second load was delivered instead we was met by a load of loud partying teenagers dancing allover the house hardly ideal when trying to complete a removal. Your dogs bed became damaged on its corner because the item was wider that your doors upon speaking with your daughter we was told to just leave it where it was. Insurance fraud is very serious how can we claim for items we told you not to send without being adequately packaged for storage your goods were moved 4 times before being delivered back to you and that's why they need packing properly!
We're sorry you was not happy with the service if the items had of been packed properly the outcome would im sure of been very different. You also failed to inform us of your home office equipment on your quote request this is why the quote was adjusted to the correct charge as per the t&c's sent and agreed to by yourself. When a customer changes their mind after the service start eg does not now agree with the terms agreed to qwe as all companies seize the service as its not covered he insurers without the customers agreement as its not a bound contract. we delievered everything back to you and was absoloutly nothing to do with the police if you reasearch this this case is a civil dispute anfd the police have no power whatsoever to intervene. We don't mind your review but do the incorrect facts I consider to be added to add some weight to your argument. Please correct the information you know is wrong!! Kind Regards Joseph Miles The Director of Homelink

The facts below are correct///

1. You took a discount rather than the free packing materials offered,
2. your move took 10 hours not over 12 as stated.
3. your goods became damaged as you did not heed the advice I gave you and sent them unprotected.
4. You then tried to claim from our insurance for goods your where advised not to send.
5. your quote was adjusted because you failed to tell us you had home office equipment to move.

Great movers.

Fantastic service was moving back from Exeter to hull, was given several quotes and this was was by far the best. They turned up on time like they said and started packing my items straight away taking care of everything they moved and packed, when they arrived in hull they took great care of moving all the stuff in to a awkward move in to our pub Which was not the easiest place to unload in to we also had all the garden furniture for our new pub which was assembled for us and put in to place which gave us a great head start in to having the pub up and running quickly many thanks.

Long-distance move from Derby, Derbyshire to Sheffield, South Yorkshire

My moe from Derby to Sheffield.

Was very satisfied with the service ii got from homelink when moving from derby to sheffield. They was the best price so was a little unsure to start with as cheap usually means poor, im really glad to say they really do go the extra mile and in my opinio have given us a service far beyond our expectations. The workers was especialy thoughtfull and helpful and nothing was to much trouble for them. I still wonder how they offer a service of this standard at a low price. Thanks to you all you made our move stress free couldent recommend you more.

Service cost: £598

Long-distance move from Leicester, Leicestershire to Leeds, Yorkshire

Removal Desborough to Halifax.

The guys were efficient and dealt well with a difficult end location (over 4 floors) despite a long journey from loading to unloading.  They followed my requests on the few items were additional care was required and communicated through the whole move. The only downside, there was insufficient room for my bike and outdoor plant meaning I needed to make an additional journey, luckily I was renting and had a week cross over to enable me to go back. On the whole, pretty efficient service.

Service cost: £800
