R & D Schofields moved me to my new home last week and I can not thank them enough for their help and support. Sam, Jason and Matty were careful, helpful, and above all efficient and managed the whole process with professionalism. The team in the office was also very helpful and this made my whole moving experience a stress free and relaxed process from start to finish. Thank you guys for a brilliant service.

This company is simply outstanding. We were very apprehensive about what we knew would be a difficult move and the other removal companies we approached didn’t seem to get it. Matt was totally professional, reassuring, and realistic. He actually came to our flat to check thoroughly what was needed - all the others did it online. He quoted promptly and planned the work meticulously. We could tell from their whole approach that this company were a number of notches better than the others, plus the fact they’ve been going over a hundred years. Communication was exemplary. They always returned our calls and were flexible as our exchange date kept changing. When it came to doing the actually job, the team worked brilliantly well together - two days of packing and one to load the van. I am so impressed by the care and attention that they put into looking after our things. Everything was carefully and respectfully packed. They worked hard and with great sensitivity. Nothing was lost or broken and they were brilliant at placing things in our new home. Always they worked with friendly good humour and what seemed like superhuman strength. Thank you so much to Jason, Barry, Jem, and Matt. They made a potentially horrid drudge, memorably positive. We’ll always remember Schofield's and highly recommend this brilliant bunch of people.

They could not do the original date due to our late confirmation but the one a week later went faultlessly over the two days. Phil and his crew were pleasant and capable. The three-piece suite would not fit in the first-floor apartment but they remained cheerful despite having to remove doors and feet in an effort to ensure it was not possible. Provided polythene covers when storing it in the garage. Would definitely use them again.

Schofield (unknown) worked professionally and efficiently. If unsure of the location of furniture/boxes they always asked. They were helpful and calm on the actual moving day. They took extreme care over our possessions and nothing was broken or lost.

My experience with Messrs Schofield was excellent, no problems at all. I hope I don't have to move again, but if I did I would certainly give them a call.

We used Schofield’s to move us from two separate addresses in Colchester, store our belonging for a few months and then deliver items to our new home in Halesworth. Very friendly company and fair competitive rates. Many thanks to Tony Ben and Sam for your efforts and skill manoeuvring large items of furniture into a town house with tricky stair configurations. Also for dismantling and rebuilding existing wardrobe that needed relocating to a lower floor.... your humour and patience was fantastic. If you want a suited, cap tugging service maybe Schofield’s aren’t for you, but if you just want a reliable friendly efficient move then give them a call. Many thanks for getting us safety moved without a single breakage or mishap.

Schofield packed up the contents of the house I was selling, loaded their vans to 3 different locations and did an excellent job in transporting and unloading at the destinations. Very friendly, polite, careful and efficient. Thoroughly recommend to anyone moving house.
