Excellent service.

The chaps from Simply Moving arrived 30 mins early whilst we were in the middle of a kitchen flood nightmare, Richard helped us out in getting the water turned off and the room dry in lightning fast time.. I am sure they didn’t expect to find us soaking wet with my husband in his boxers at 9:30 in the morning - but they weren’t phased!!

They provided an excellent service and your chaps were incredibly well mannered.

Massive thanks for us.

Service cost: £470

Official company response

Hi Helen, thanks for the review. Seeing your husband soaking wet stopping the leak in his boxer shorts was a highlight or almost 15 years of moving. Glad we stopped the flood and moved you into your new dry home! Martin.

Moving house.

We used Simply Moving to relocate our furniture into storage and into our new home. The team (Martin, Wes, Owen and Kian) were all really helpful, courteous and responsive to minor changes on the day (including getting our big fridge/freezer through a door!). It made it a very slick and professional move for us, so thank you to all of you as your service to us is/was appreciated.

Service cost: £600

Thanks Mark, just let us know when you are ready to move out of storage and we'll look after it for you.

Long-distance move from Derby, Derbyshire to Derby, Derbyshire

Two removals in one day.

I needed two removals on the same day in different locations.  The first was to empty the ground floor of a house, and part of a church, and store the furniture on the upper floor and the garage.  The second was 18 miles away and was to swop over two offices in an academy that were about 100 metres apart.  Both were very complex moves with heavy items and included computer equipment, filing cabinets as well as with the first move the ususal three piece suites, beds and cabinets. After the moves I wrote to the company as follows: 'Can I just say how impressed I was by the service from your two removal men.  They were on time, flexible for our needs - both at the church and at the academy in the afternoon - worked non-stop with barely a pause even for a drink, and did it all with a smile.  I can truthfully say it was the best removal experience I have ever had!  They were a credit to your business.  I shall certainly recommend your company to anyone I hear about who is intending to move home.' Because of the unusual nature of the moves I didn't know what to expect, and now, several days later, I still feel the same as above.  I have alredy passed their name to a colleague that is considering moving.

Long-distance move from Derby, Derbyshire to Leicester, Leicestershire

House move.

The team at simplymoving.co.uk were fantastic! I would highly recommend them. Great friendly and professional service! Very efficient and careful on the day. The team clearly loved their work and worked so well together. Great price which I was worried might be too good to be true given other quotes, but they did not disappoint on any level. All delicate items were wrapped with great care, but so were the soft furnishing too. Made the moving process almost pleasant!!

Long-distance move from Coventry, Warwickshire to Coventry, Warwickshire

Amazing service!

After a difficult exchange which left us with very little time to find a removals firm, I frantically searched the Internet in the hope of finding anyone who could help with less than a week to go! I'm so pleased that I stumbled across Simply Moving, as Martin's first communication put my mind at rest - he was so helpful and reassured us that Simply could fit us in on one of our potential dates (we only had a choice of two!) After confirming, Martin brought round all packing materials we needed on the same afternoon (all at very reasonable rates) which was just fab. The removals team (of 3) on the day were really polite/friendly and highly professional - and so helpful with everything. It really made a stressful experience a whole lot easier!! I can't recommend this firm enough - and their rates are highly competitive too. .

Service cost: £326

Long-distance move from Coventry, Warwickshire to London, Greater London

Prompt and professional.

Simply Moving arranged my move with just a few days notice.
The online inventory was clear and useful to estimate costs. My follow up phone calls to a particularly friendly team then clarified the details.
The team confirmed all arrangements in writing, delivered boxes on time, and sent a reminder text with packing tips.
On my move date, the team were efficient and careful. Also polite to me and my new neighbours. No damages.
Thank you
Philip.

Long-distance move from Coventry, Warwickshire to Coventry, Warwickshire

Prompt, professional and great value.

Having never used a removal firm before and only moving myself, I was unsure what to expect and did my research. Simply Moving had a great reputation and my experience lived up to that. They arrived slightly early and the whole process was painless. The three guys doing the moving were polite and respectful and helped us feel at ease. I will, and have, recommend them to others in the future. Thanks.

Service cost: £285

Excellent well priced company.

Excellent professional removals company. We walked around the house with the coordinator and show them what to do. They were very diligent and moved all items from our house in a very speedy but controlled manner. When we arrive to the new house, the checked with us were all the items were meant to stay and they did the work in a professional manner. 2 weeks later, we have unpacked 80% of our boxes and only 1 glass chipped. Fantastic company, would recommend to anyone.

Service cost: £540

Long-distance move from Coventry, Warwickshire to Coventry, Warwickshire

Friendly and excellent price.

We only contacted Simply Moving as a last minute decision because the original removal firm (a friend of a friend contact) was fully booked. However we would recommend to anyone to contact them first because they were flexible, helpful, reliable and the best quoted price. We originally dismissed them because they were a Coventry firm and we were moving within Rugby but needn't have worried. Not that we want to move for a while but we'd use them again.

Service cost: £450
