Chris and his team were thorough and very professional, very flexible and considerate with our needs as it was a short turnaround over the easter period. They went above and beyond to help us with a smooth transition from one property to our storage facility. The whole team were very happy which is a sign of good leadership and management. it was an incredibly hot time during the move, and not one of the team complained or moaned, they just got on with the job in hand with courteous professionalism. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

I always use Barley Corn when I have to move anything too big for my car or too heavy for me to lift. Over the years I have moved house with them 4 times and used them for dozens of smaller jobs, distributing furniture to friends and family all over the place. I have always found Chris Cox very helpful and considerate and he always provides great value for money. My last move was especially complicated; we needed to pack up a 4 bedroom house and distribute the furniture to both a storage unit and a new rental home which were 80 miles away. The team was so energetic, friendly, and helpful. The contents of the house were packed into the storage unit with impressive expertise, and then the team tirelessly drove to the rental property and unpacked what was left. Setting up the beds on some very uneven floor boards and making sure the drawers under the bed could still open took skill and patience, which I really appreciated. The whole team was great, helping us to arrange the furniture in all the right places before driving the 80 miles back. It must have been a very long day for them. I feel very lucky to have found Chris Cox and Barley Corn. It is a wonderful firm and I would heartily recommend them.

Barleycorn and the team made the process very smooth and slick. They turned up on both days exactly at the time planned and worked efficiently. We were guided through the packing process and they made us feel at ease.

I just wanted to say what a great team Barleycorn has. We are having building work done so we had to move everything out of the ground floor into long term storage. They were incredibly efficient and worked well on the different tasks; for example, straight after arrival Trevor was on kitchen, Tom on furniture and Ben on books. They finished the task within 4 hours. They were also fun to work with. I also want to point out how clean and shiny their lorries are. Very smart. Very professional. I think this makes a real difference as it helps with brand recognition and reassurance for potential new customers. I would be very happy to recommend them to anyone. They have carried out lots of moves in the village so clearly they have a good reputation as an excellent local company.

We used Barleycorn to move a 4 bed house and garage from Oxfordshire to South Wales, including a fragile pack over 3 days. The level of service, hard work, and politeness from this company was outstanding, and they made the move very easy. The speed with which they packed the house was frankly astonishing. In some cases, where we'd not quite finished packing some items, they did this for us without issue. I'd recommend this service to anyone looking for removals services.

We exchanged and completed on the same day. Chris and his crew helped take the stress out of that day They were patient and reassuring. It all ran pretty late but they did a lot of unpacking that day and finished off the next day. They were all very kind and did an amazing job. I would fully recommend Barleycorn.

Part removal from family home to new flat

Barleycorn were wonderful through the whole moving process. They gave us a prompt visit to quote for the removal of my daughters possessions from 3 rooms in the house and garage and the quote arrived quickly. They coped cheerfully with the removal date changing several times. On the moving date they arrived promptly, and were shown what needed moving from each of the room, laid out mats to keep the floor clean, and were very quickly packing and removing things to the van. They double checked on any item they were unsure was going, as none of the rooms were being completely cleared and they were soon ready to set off. We were moving into a second floor flat that involved either 2 flights of stairs or a lift and corridors, plus security and fire doors. One of the 3 men had to stay with the van as it was on the road, and we needed one of us in the flat, and one dealing with doors. The removal men were cheerful and quick with what must have been a very longwinded moving in, due to the stairs and corridors. Very quick. tidy, careful and helpful. Thoroughly recommended

Chris and his team moved us from Sonning Common to Kingston Bagpuize in April 2024. They packed everything for us over a couple of days and were incredibly thorough. The guys made sure they asked us what needed packing and what didn’t. They were really pleasant and extremely helpful. This company was recommended to us and we can see why as they were really very professional. We would also say that they removed furniture we were not taking with us, which will go to auction and proceeds given to a homeless charity👍. We would and have already recommended them to others. The cost was around £5600 for clearance of furniture and for packing and removal to new property.

We used Barleycorn to move house over Easter. The crew were great - really friendly, respectful, and asked questions if they were unsure of everything. They took great care in making sure everything was packed properly and the move went incredibly smoothly. They were also really flexible about picking up the empty boxes after we had unpacked and came round twice to do a collection. I highly recommend Barleycorn. They made what could have been a stressful experience an easy experience.

Moving is such a stressful time and I was dreading it, I can honestly say not only was the move smooth, efficient and unstressful, I actually enjoyed the process. Everyone was a pleasure to be with and the effort they put in to complete the move was exceptional. I don’t generally give reviews but I really felt this was warranted
