Very impressed with the whole service & competitive price. They did what we asked of them & more & we felt very safe in their hands. Good sense of humour helped on the day.

Abbeywood moved us twice in 6 months and, on both occasions, they were excellent. The quotations were competitive and the move days went very much to plan with the team leads keeping us informed of activities at all times. Would definitely use them again!

i used Abbeywood a while ago.Only now have I full unpacked and have discovered many problems. I received a very poor service,though the team were friendly The estimate included removing many many things that I didn't take and emptying the loft. However, I emptied the loft myself. The men therefore had far less to pack and do than expected. They initially worked well but left early saying it would be done next day There then was a panic on moving day to be out on time Unloading appeared really rushed:things were dumped in the shed that didn't go there. Boxes labelled living room left in the garage. Plants were broken; They couldn't get a wardrobe upstairs till i said to take it apart. Suddenly it was upstairs! I felt like they were desperate to get away. i didn't check everything very well. Mattresses were still in plastic; the table put together wrongly; some furniture wasn't rebuilt, On unpacking i discovered many breakages as some things were unwrapped.Dirty walking boots were thrown on top of bedding;towels were used for wrapping things;heavy winter clothes were rammed on top of summer things as clothes weren't in wardrobe boxes as had been promised. They were very creased. i received a small amount of compensation i have finally unpacked the pictures and glasses. Many are chipped and had to be thrown out. Picture frames are broken/chipped and the glass smashed due to lack of wrapping paper. i rang to tell Abbeywood but they seemed uninterested! I do not recommend them.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review as we appreciate all feedback. As you can see from the many reviews on this site and the letters we enclose with our moving packs the issues presented by yourself are not indicative of the service we provide. Your move took place over a year ago and following your original letter your concerns were raised with the appointed crew. Following a review at the time, our findings were discussed with you on the phone and email on numerous occasions over the past year. Prior to your removal a full two page damage inventory was produced by our crew prior to them packing and moving your effects. Your move was always scheduled over two days as you had also requested two additional deliveries on route to your sons homes. Our vehicles are all tracked and on review I can see our crews clocked out on day one at 5pm and 5:30pm on day two. With regard to the wardrobe our crew were not scheduled to dismantle this as they all came out of your old home in one piece, but as a gesture the crew did dismantle and re-assemble one for you at your new home as access was tight at no additional charge. We always place mattresses in mattress bags for transit and the crew should of removed these for you on delivery. If you had dismantled furniture prior to the move our crews would not normally re-assemble these items and this was not requested as a service required by yourself. You were offered transit insurance with our insurers but declined. As a gesture of good will following your removal and to bring this matter to a close we did compensate you financially, which you were happy to accept.
Very efficient team

A very friendly team who knew exactly what they were doing. Our move went very smoothly - our fastest ever move! Prompt with times, supplying packing boxes and collecting once finished with. Returned 'calls' without delay. Just 'one' person was off-putting when trying to discuss things - bit stern!

We engaged Abbeywood to carry out our home removal and were impressed from the start. Adrian did the survey - nice guy, professional and pitched the price exactly where we hoped it would be. We took the full service, the packing service was brilliant and the removal service matched it perfectly the following day. A 5 hour delay in completion could have been a disaster - it wasn't. Lee, Jamie and the team were absolutely faultless. We would highly recommend these guys. First class.
