Long-distance move from Edinburgh, Midlothian to Edinburgh, Midlothian

Can't recommend highly enough.

The team at MoveStore were absolutely fantastic. From the video call to discuss the removal requirements through to the day of the move they were always professional, polite and respectful. They were right on time, took extra care to protect my items and the furnishings between the two properties. I'd like to extend my profound thanks to Cameron and James for their friendliness and professionalism, and for making my move stress-free. Highly recommend MoveStore for anyone looking for a reliable removals service.

Long-distance move from Edinburgh, Midlothian to Edinburgh, Midlothian

Great service

Booked a local move for a one-bedroom within Newington, Edinburgh with these guys and everything was great. Did a quick video call beforehand to take a look at what we were moving, booked us in nice and quickly and were very accomodating to the fact that we couldn't 100% confirm the date till quite late on.

Turned up on time on the day and were very friendly and professional. Got the move done nice and quickly with minumum disruption and, basically, couldn't recommend them more.

Exceptional removal firm - MoveStore

Due to an unfortunate bout of lurgy in the run-up to removal day, I was woefully behind on packing. Thanks to the truly exceptional team at MoveStore, who went above and beyond to help pack a mountain of stuff at the last minute, I was able to flit on the scheduled day.

From the first point of contact from quote through to the last box off the van - and another last min request to pls rearrange the sofa and (v heavy) bookcase back the other way in the new living room - nothing seemed to faze them.

James and Cameron are the definition of helpful and professional. Thanks again, both - v much appreciated!

Long-distance move from United Kingdom to Midlothian

Move from storage to new house

MoveStore provided an excellent service to move our belongings from our storage locker to our new property. They completed this move in in its entirety in around 2 hours. They went above and beyond with the courtesy to let us know they were slightly behind schedule to arrive at the storage facility due to traffic and to even take their shoes off when entering the property to place furniture items. James and Cameron could not have been more polite and helpful during the process.

Long-distance move from The Scottish Borders to The Scottish Borders

Highly Recommend

Never used a removals company before and I am so happy we did this time. We opted for a full packing service as I am heavily pregnant. We were so stressed about getting unpacked and the house ready before our new born came and in a matter of days I already feel at home and ready for our next chapter.

Special thanks to the crew who moved our large collection of pot plants!! Nothing was an issue for the MoveStore team and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them.

Long-distance move from East Lothian to East Lothian

Reliable and great value!

We recently used MoveStore to move house and can't recommend them enough. The guys arrived promptly to pack up our things the day before and were efficient and friendly. They then packed the vans in super fast time the next day and despite some issues in getting the keys to our new house, they worked non stop to get us in that day.

Great service from start to finish, and great value (although not the cheapest quote we had, we're so glad we went with them).

Long-distance move from Edinburgh, Midlothian to Glasgow, Lanarkshire

The easiest move of my life

We used MoveStore for our move from Edinburgh to Glasgow and from the initial contact, they were incredibly professional, efficient, and respectful. We had an initial video walkthrough of our flat with Cameron, who promptly provided us a quote for a variety of services. We decided to go for the full packing service (for the first time) as we were on a tight schedule for moving and couldn’t have been more delighted. Cameron and James were the fastest packers I’ve ever seen! They were excellent at communicating what their plan was, asking questions when needed about certain items to be moved, and very respectful of our home and our belongings. The actual move day was a couple of days later due to a schedule conflict, but they made sure to not pack essentials we might need for cooking, bathing, etc in the interim. The move itself was smooth and, again, Cameron and James were communicative and efficient. At one point, they noticed a small scratch on one of our wardrobe doors and immediately called us over to see it and reimbursed us for the cost of replacing that door. All in all, we are extremely happy with their services and are very happy in our new home thanks to MoveStore.

Long-distance move from Edinburgh, Midlothian to Cowdenbeath, Fife

Excellent Move

Best price, great customer service, friendly and professional team.

Recently moved home and sought the help of Move Store. Friendly and professional engagement from the start, quoted after conducting a quick video call/inventory of our old home.

On the day these guys turned up on time and took great care with our belongings with plenty of packaging and protection to ensure no damage. They unloaded all of our stuff on the other end with the same level of care and attention.

I would use their service again when the time comes and would highly reccomend Move Store. Brilliant service all round.

Long-distance move from Edinburgh, Midlothian to Edinburgh, Midlothian

Fantastic service

MoveStore moved my mum across Edinburgh last weekend and we can’t recommend them highly enough.

From the very first communication Cameron and James offered a friendly, efficient and highly professional service. Thanks to them, the move day itself was a stress-free and actually enjoyable experience (something I never thought I would say!)

From the moment they, arrived Cameron, James and their colleague did a fantastic job. They took great care, covering carpets, dismantling large pieces of furniture and protecting everything (pictures, matresses, sofas) with specialist covers. They worked quietly and tirelessly, always friendly and helpful and nothing was too much bother.

Unloading at the other end was similar: they carefully reassambled large items and checked my mum had everything in the place she wanted it (they even put her planters of flowers on the Kitchen windowsill, having noted this was where she had them in her last flat - now that’s attention to detail!) My mum was delighted.

I would recommended MoveStore without hesitation and can confidently say Cameron and James will be the only movers I will be using in the future.

Thank you guys for a great job!

Long-distance move from Midlothian to Renfrewshire

Lovely, fast, caring efficient guys

I dont know where to start from the minute I had the inital call to the video chat with Cameron he was really professional and explained the whole process. This never changed throughout the whole move.

They called on the morning to let me know when they would be there. They kindly returned the following morning to collect my bed to give me longer in the house as I hadn't secured a flat yet and had to put my belonging into storage.

Both cameron and James were so lovely, my friend didn't show up to help me pack my car and I have a 3 year old. They kindly carried what I needed and packed my car. They didn't need to, so very kind.

They handled my items with great respect and were honest as the last company I used took all day to fill the storage and when I emptied the unit they hadn't packed it well things were broken and missing and I had to pay for another unit. Theses guys were able to tell me the items will fit and packed the storage appropriately and with care,and still had space. They were happy to pack the uunitson there Own and call when complete. These lovely men took about about 3 hours they were so fast.

Would i recommend them 110% yes. Do I think they cared 110% yes

Were they quick 110% yes

Were the efficient 110% yes

Were they professional 110%

They were genuinely lovely guys and I would definitely use then in the future and would have no concerns about recommending them.

Thank you

Jill
