We recommend

People we're happy to send you to

A calm move takes more than us. We unpack and organise, but the right removals team, storage and specialists make all the difference. These are the people we trust enough to pass on to you.

How we choose

Only names we'd give a friend

  • We recommend teams we've worked alongside on real moves, or who come to us through people we trust.
  • We look for the same things you do: careful crews, clear communication and homes treated with respect.
  • Nobody can pay for a place on this page. If we wouldn't use them ourselves, they aren't here.

This list grows as we work with more teams worth sharing. If you need a recommendation for something specific, just ask us.

Our recommendations

Removals teams and services we trust

RH Removals logo

Removals

RH Removals

House removals, packing and storage, run by Ross Hitchen and his team.

Based in Wiltshire and covering the Cotswolds and Bath, with regular moves to London, Surrey and the Home Counties.

A good removals team makes our job possible. Ross and his crew survey first, send the right vehicles for the contents and the access, and place furniture and boxes exactly where they need to be, which means we can get straight on with the unpacking. Calm, careful and organised: everything a moving day needs.

What they do

  • House removals carried out by their own crews and vehicles
  • Packing services, from fragile items only to the whole house
  • Large property and estate moves, spread over several days where needed
  • Fine art, antiques and specialist items, with made-to-measure crates
  • Containerised and de-mount storage for when dates don't line up

Removals & Clearance

Move It Max

Home and office removals, packing, storage and waste clearance, based in Cookham.

Based in Cookham and moving homes and offices across the UK and into Europe, with weekday and weekend moves.

Max and his team are the friendly, flexible kind of movers every move needs. They handle everything from single rooms to full homes and offices, and their clearance service is a genuine help when a declutter leaves you with things to dispose of responsibly. Helpful drivers, quick to respond, and happy to move at weekends.

What they do

  • Home removals, from single rooms to large household moves
  • Office relocations, including furniture, IT equipment and documents
  • Professional packing, from fragile items to the whole house
  • Secure short- and long-term storage between moves
