What customers near Galashiels say
The two man team turned up on time, and were polite, friendly and helpful throughout. They took down a double bed and rebuilt it at my new home very quickly and without fuss, and also moved several items at my new address. Excellent service and well worth the money.
The team who helped me move on Saturday 25th were fantastic. They were super quick in removing all my furniture and even quicker when placing everything in my new flat. Nothing was a hassle; they were both very professional and hard-working.
The two men who did my removal were excellent Couldn’t do enough for me and so honest, one found money in my bedroom and immediately handed it to me. They unloaded my stuff carefully and it was a pleasure meeting them.
