Long-distance move from Wrexham to Dorset

Long distance move from N. Wales to Dorset.

From the start, this company was helpful & adaptable, as well as offering a reasonable quote.

Both sites had difficult approaches, the Welsh house being on a narrow unadopted road on a hillside & the Dorset house being on a main road with very narrow entrance. These problems were dealt with calmly & efficiently.

On the first day of removals, the three movers were on time, extremely polite, listened to my concerns & then just got on with the job. Everything was sorted & packed extremely well, with no breakages, scratches, etc. Beds were carefully dismantled.

It was planned as a two day job & on the second day, the men worked just as efficiently as on the previous day.

The delivery of the furniture & boxes went without problem. Furniture was reassembled carefully in the new home & all boxes were placed where requested. Nothing was scratched or damaged. The company also came to collect the empty boxes as prearranged.

I would definitely recommend Thomas Pardy Removals Company. They were brilliant!

Move size: 3 Bedroom Home Service cost: £3336

Long-distance move from Southampton, Hampshire to Southend-on-Sea, Essex

Awful removal people.

If you're ever moving and want a stress free move never ever contact Thomas Pardy removals. They are rude, arrogant, don't care about you as the customer or your belongings and are just in a hurry to get the job done and even asked for money prior to completion of the work. They are a bunch of weasels!

I booked them for packing and moving a small two bedroom furnished flat, they came late for packing and were dissatisfied with having to do any packing all the way through my move ! They weren't helpful in any way and after loading half my stuff in to their can demanded that I pay them the full amount of money. They were a bunch of thugs. They literally bunged my stuff in to boxes with no proper labelling and half didn't know which things were in which boxes.

They wanted also to come before 8am in the morning to drop my stuff off to my parents place even after telling them my mum wasn't well and my dad left for work then. They were inconsiderate and rude and I felt intimidated and quite frankly bullied throughout my move.

Take my advice never ever book them ! Save yourself unnecessary stress!!

Official company response

I have been trying to respond to this incorrect, false accusations and possibly libellous review which appears to be written by a person of low intellect, with such comments as weasels and thugs, yet comes from a person within the medical profession. To respond, this person contracted our company for a removal quote, including packing. It was a quick move from her contacting us to us carrying out the move. In that time, she was extremely hard to tie down to times and date for her move after sending emails, texts and leaving emails and finally booked us the day before we were due to pack and load. We agreed to arrive at Southampton about 2pm on a Thursday, pack and load all for delivery to Southend on Friday and as we were to leave early, suggested to arrive around 0730am. We arrived at 1420pm (20 mins late) on the Thursday. She left us standing in her flat for about 10 minutes while she finished her phone call and was in no obvious rush. As we started packing, Thomas Pardy asked whether she wished to pack her own underwear and garments which for some unknown reason had decided to wash and leave hanging all around the flat. This is her comment about us not wanting to pack. This also applied to the stinking kitchen area, the sink had been blocked for sometime and we had to pack the dishes dirty, with food on them. We were always pleasant and accommodating, the complete opposite to this person who herself was rude, arrogant and unclean. Two of us went to deliver the next day and arrived after 0800am as requested. After waiting about 20 minutes at the door, her father opened and was very pleasant, she appeared about 10 minutes after. She told us that the two very heavy sofas would be easily managed but the hall, due to the staircase meant that they would not go into the dining room at the rear of the house. We spent time moving them into the garage and through another door but again a very large chest was in the way which we moved. As we finally got the sofas into the dining room, she then asked us to push a huge display cabinet which was full of china further down the room We pointed out that she would have to remove all the contents to do this(common sense?) She started to unpack some boxes, although she told us that most were remaining in the garage and thought that we were going to mark up each box with every item in it. (we pack and mark up eg kitchen china, utensils, lounge ornaments etc) her reference to marking of boxes. In conclusion, in all of my 50 years of removals, this person ranked as one of the top 5 in terms of rudeness, very intimidating and I believe was trying to get off without paying. Most removal companies do ask for payment in advance as do holiday companies and a host of other services. We allowed her to pay in arrears. If you ever come across this person in a hospital bed, I would suggest you make a run for it. David Pardy.

Long-distance move from Bournemouth, Dorset to Bournemouth, Dorset

Moving Day.

 During what was a stressful time for me the Thomas Pardy team of three were calm and friendly.   Everything was well wrapped and boxed.  I was a little bemused by the order in which they packed however it was better than having to do it myself and at a very reasonable price. A cupboard has been damaged so I intend to contact them about it. I would recommend Thomas Pardy Removals.

Long-distance move from Bournemouth, Dorset to Bournemouth, Dorset

Great, efficient service.

Our move was made so much easier thanks to the team at Thomas Pardy Removals. Having taken the time to research the situation at our new property, they made arrangements for two smaller vehicles to be used and turned up bang on time to collect bulky items to be stored for the day at their depot. On return, the team of three guys proceeded to to load the rest of our contents with speed, care and efficiency. Unloading at the other end was quick and hassle-free and we would like to say a big thank you to the guys for being so polite and for working so hard through the day.

Moving House Review.

This company was cost-effective, professional, helpful & dealt with many challenges on the day without any fuss.
At the last moment, we found out that we could not move in the garden stuff as planned the day before but David took it in his stride & laid on a third lorry to store overnight.
This was a big move for us as we had not moved for over 30yrs & despite it raining most of the day & it was the Thursday before Easter they made it look easy & in a friendly manner.
I do not hesitate in recommending this company & will use them again.
Note true cost not disclosed.

Long-distance move from Bournemouth, Dorset to Bournemouth, Dorset

Absolutely awful company.

Totally agree with the other 1 star review on here and we also moved in 2014. The owners response gives an idea of what type of person he is.
The owner of the company harassed us with calls and texts all day long while waiting for completion.
When we eventually got our keys at 4 pm and opened the house mr pardy demanded that we pay an extra £100 as his men had waited for so long or else he would keep all of our possessions and take them back to his warehouse. Luckily we are not easily intimidated like a lot of people would be and said we would just call the police.
Eventually the two men working for him calmed him down and offered to unload our property from their van and leave it all in one room of the house, not taking it into the individual rooms as had been agreed.
Totally ruined the happiness of moving into our new home and it amazes me that the company is still trading with an attitude like that.

Review and recommendation.

I would like to thank Mr David Pardy and his team members for moving my house. They have done the job professionally. They looked after our furniture and both houses (no scratches and no damage). They packed the kitchen professionally. They were really nice. The price was competitive to the market. The move was smooth and stress free for us. I would use them again and highly recommended.

Move in February.

I cannot praise this company enough. After being let down by another company. I put out a quote request as I had tto move the next day. Within the hour Dave came out, costed the job and the next day he and a colleague packed my house and moved me. Nothing was too much trouble. They worked like beavers and were polite and cheerful. I am now recommending them to all my friends. BRILLIANT COMPANY. Use them for your move.

Long-distance move from Southampton, Hampshire to Leeds, Yorkshire

A Stellar Service.

Thomas Pardy and David in particular were absolutely brilliant all through our move from Southampton to Leeds. David visited our flat and assessed the items that would either go to our flat in Leeds or into storage and he advised us on the best way to complete the move. We took his advice of a 2-day move, which worked out perfectly. The team of four polite and hardworking men arrived on time and took all our belongings down two flights of stairs in a professional manner. All items were carefully taken care of and important or bulky items such as the tv and the settee were protected with clean blankets.
The loading took about 2 hours while our 15-month old son walked about the flat, sometimes getting in the way. The Thomas Pardy team were understanding and never once complained.
In Leeds, Thomas Pardy visited the storage facility and the new flat to assess accessibility so they were ready for the following day. The next day, they were waiting for us at the storage facility and after unloading half the items there, they then unloaded the remaining items into the new flat. Once again, they were courteous and careful.
We cannot thank Thomas Pardy enough for their help, advice and service. We would definitely recommend their services to anyone.
