Barleycorn Removals Limited

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.

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

A friendly local firm who were efficient and courteous. The team arrived on time and carried out the removal to our complete satisfaction. We moved into a brand new build house and protective coverings were placed on all the carpeting whilst the team were working. We are more than happy to recommend this firm.

We are very happy with Barleycorn Removals and recommend them highly. We had a big house and they spent three days packing everything professionally. They then moved us four hours away and spent a total of four days unloading and also unpacking the big pieces of furniture. The staff worked extremely hard and were always very courteous and in good humour. Chris, the owner, ensured it was a personal service and we are very pleased with their service

We used Barleycorn's pack and move service, they packed everything up and moved it all to our new property over a period of two days. Absolutely brilliant service! Friendly and helpful team, nothing broken, everything completed on time -actually finished early on the final day! Price extremely reasonable and completely transparant about what the quotation included. Previous moves we have done everything ourselves, honestly couldnt have done it without them this time due to being pregnant with small kids to watch and no leave possible from work. I would definitely use them again in a heartbeat if moving and highly recommend them. You should definitely use this company.

Used Barleycorn for a full pack and removal service. They were great; all the guys were friendly and helpful and happily accomodated delays to the completion which meant the offloading went late in to a Friday evening. Would have no hesitation using them again, if we ever move again!

We used Barleycorn in August to move us from Oxfordshire to Devon and we could not fault the team at all! We had an issue with our move date and they kept our spot until we could finalise it all. We decided to use the pack and move package and we are so glad we did! They arrived as arranged on the Tuesday morning talked through everything made sure we were happy and where we wanted them to start. The just got on with it. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They returned on the Wednesday to finish packing and loaded everything on to the lorry. When we arrived at the new house they unloaded as much as they could, they set up the beds, sofa’s made sure we had everything we needed to be getting on with for that day. They returned the next morning to unload the rest. Again nothing was too much trouble and it was a blisteringly hot day! I would absolutely recommend Barleycorn and have done so already! John, Luke and Ashley were our team and they were fab! Should we ever need to move again we wouldn’t hesitate in contacting them again.

We recently moved house in Oxford and used Barleycorn for a full pack and move service. They were excellent from start to finish. They came to quote promptly, offered a fair price compared to other local quotes and booking was straightforward and flexible. Communication was great throughout the process. The movers themselves were really friendly and polite and took great care of our belongings. They were punctual, the packing time had been estimated correctly and there were no unexpected problems or hidden charges. Nothing was damaged, they reassembled the furniture in the new house, and didn't complain at all about a difficult staircase they had to carry a heavy king-sized mattress up. They also came back promptly to collect all the empty boxes and packing materials. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

The staff gave me service that exceeded expectations. Parking restrictions at the house meant 70+ cardboard boxes and wooden crates had to be offloaded and manually carried 60 metres in the rain. They overcame space restrictions in the house without complaining. Helpful and polite at all times. I have no hesitation in recommending Barleycorn for house removal

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Barleycorn Removals .Chris was informative and communicated well. On the moving day , the removal men were very quick and careful with our belongings. When the move didn’t go as expected, and we had to wait a number of hours , they were reassuring and calm throughout. Although we were late getting into our new property, we never felt rushed and the team went above and beyond to help us settle in.

I couldn’t have been happier with Barleycorn removal’s respectful efficient and reliable of our property. They went above and beyond and would highly recommend them.

From the first visit made to assess the contents for a quote to the final moments of moving day, Barleycorn provided friendly, efficient, careful and patient service. The team of movers worked incredibly quickly and with a great sense of humour. My move covered 130 miles and there was a delay in getting the key so the team had to wait outside the property and then work fast to unload everything so they could get back home in reasonable time at the end of a long day. They did not complain and were unfailingly helpful and good humoured despite there being some extremely heavy and awkward items as well as many that were fragile. Great care was taken to keep everything clean throughout. I can highly recommend Chris and his team.

Thanks to Chris and the team at Barleycorn Removals for taking the stress out of my move. Good communication from the start and throughout. Flexible with my ever changing moving date. My stuff was carefully packed up the day before and moving day went smoothly. Really efficient and friendly service. Highly recommend.

Great removal team and service - packing and moving service used. Respectful, efficient, hard working,

This is second time we have used barley corn for a complete removal. As before their work was excellent. I thoroughly recommend their service

Best moving company I've ever worked with. Thorough, caring, efficient, flexible, and won't try to rip you off!

We engaged Barleycorn Removals as a result of reading Which Trusted Trader which gave them an excellent endorsement. We found they lived up to our expectations completely. We needed to change our plans at short notice necessitating packing up to be done on Sunday rather than in the week to allow completion to take place 150 miles away on Monday. This was done swiftly and in a professional manner . In spite of problems with M25 protesters the team got their vehicles through with the minimum of fuss and in plenty of time to offload our possessions. Unfortunately the keys to our new property were "held up" and delivered at the end of the business day. This meant several hours of delay which the teams managed without complaint. Everything was offloaded and put into the appropriate rooms of the house and the garage before they could start on their return journey. I was very impressed at the calm , professional and helpful attitude of everyone on the teams and their cheerful demeanour by all concerned. There were no mishaps , breakages or confusions largely due to the pre planning and excellent packing / protection of our property and no additional charges for the delays incurred. I can heartily recommend this company for all of your removal needs and hope they get a better break than they received from us.

Barleycorn did our house move from Newbury to Wallingford exceptionally well. Chris did a very thorough job when he came to quote on the job and responded promptly to all our queries in the lead-up to the move. The team who carried out the pack and move were outstanding. David, Lee and Trevor packed everything the day before our move and their care, organisation and humour made the whole process really straightforward for us. They came back the next day to finish packing the lorry and we were at our new address ready to move in by midday. Nothing was broken or damaged in the move and everything was put in the room where we wanted it, even fifteen heavy boxes of books taken up to the second floor room. The communication was excellent throughout and we couldn't fault Barleycorn in any way. If you're planning a move in this area we would recommend them without hesitation.

Barleycorn Removals had already been used by two members of our family and came well recommended. We had a provisional booking initially, reserving our preferred date. The move took place over 2 days. A team of polite and friendly removers arrived punctually and worked hard and carefully on both days. All packing cases and materials were provided. The move went very smoothly, with up to 7 staff moving us in. An appointment was made to collect the empty packing cases a week later. There was slight damage to an item of furniture, which was replaced at cost price, without quibble. We have no hesitation in recommending Barleycorn. Good quality service at a competitive price.

The Barleycorn team made what could have been a really difficult time as stress-free as possible. Everyone was really helpful, professional and friendly from start to finish. Chris did an initial survey whilst I was still working out what contents would move with me and which would go to storage. He was detailed but flexible with his quote, which was competitive. Subsequent communication with Chris and Becky was efficient and helpful. A follow-up video call to confirm the initial survey was really useful. The removals team were lovely and did a great job packing and unpacking. Schedule and budget were accurate - a change in billing as a result of amended storage requirements was dealt with quickly and efficiently. I would recommend Chris and his team without any hesitation.

I recently moved to Wallingford in Oxfordshire and always try to use local tradespeople. Barleycorn Removals moved my stuff from Bucks, put it into storage and delivered it today. Everything was carefully wrapped and stored. No breakages. The trio of Josh Trevor and Cameron worked hard on the hottest day of the year and were hugely accommodating. I would recommend them to anyone.

Barleycorn helped us for 2 days in early April in moving house locally. The first day was spent packing up for us - this was definitely worth the investment given how much stuff we have and how challenging it is to do yourself with two young kids. They did this efficiently and carefully. On the second day there was some final packing, and then a very quick move in during the afternoon in just a few hours - thanks to putting a large team on the job - it was impressive how quick they were. Throughout the process Chris was a great person to deal with and during the move his team were courteous and helpful. I would fully recommend Barleycorn.

Barleycorn Removals Limited provided a very professional, efficient and friendly service. The crew carried out the move in a helpful and good humoured manner and were very grateful of the many cups of coffee and the pizzas. Many thanks to Chris and his team. I would highly recommend Barleycorn Removals.

In the stressful time of our move we had the pleasure to have the experts around. Everything went smoothly and as planned. Great work and great communication! We can definitely recommend the team.

The service offered by Barleycorn was excellent! All aspects were very positive and reassuring. The quote visit was very efficient and friendly and the quote and confirmation of date came through quickly and without any hassle. The packing team was friendly and did a super job of labeling and making sure everything was well cared for - including the anxious person moving! On the day of the move, all went very well with attention to little details that made the whole process a lot easier! I would not hesitate to recommend this very nice team!

Barleycorn packed and moved my family of six to Blackburn. I am really pleased with the service, which was warm, friendly and helpful. Everything arrived safely. Fantastic service and value for money. Highly recommended.

I chose Barleycorn Removals as they are a small local firm and I was not disappointed. Chris called to see me and gave me a detailed estimate for packing and removal to storage. The packing went well and the guys were friendly, courteous and helpful. My belongings were in storage much longer than anticipated, but when the time came to move, Chris was able to squeeze me in to his busy schedule and everything was delivered on the same day. The guys who unloaded were great - again helpful and courteous - and very hard working. I had a minor problem of not being able to locate a toolbox but found it in the following days in an unlabelled box. Given the number of boxes though, this was not bad! Communications throughout were very good and I would have no hesitation in recommending Barleycorn Removals.

So, like many, I have skimped on moves in the past. I used Anyvan for a previous move and one smashed guitar and a police report later I vowed never to do it again. So I looked at reviews - like this one - to assess who to go with next time out for a house move from Berkshire to Kent. Barleycorn came highly recommended already. I am not about to disagree. From beginning to end they could not be more helpful. They moved everything asked of them, positioned it as requested and did so with the minimum of fuss. In some cases they left furniture in better condition in the new property than it was to start with, having dismantled and reassembled it! Moving house is rolling a dice. If you want a service that will look after your belongings go for Barleycorn. If you want to try a different service bear in mind my experience that paying less is a false economy when you need to deal with what goes wrong.

Chris’ team did a full pack & move service for us. I cannot recommend them highly enough - super professional team, they all knew their role and worked hard and efficiently together as a team. They were all lovely people to have around too. Nothing too much trouble and all willing to help and go the extra mile.

Thank you to Barleycorn who worked really hard and carefully to make our move smooth and easy which was a great surprise. Knowledgeable, well organised, and worth every penny. We found the team very friendly, trustworthy and communicative and would one hundred percent use them again.

Although I had some preliminary work the packing service beforehand and the removal on the day was exemplary. It was done quickly and without any issues at all.

Chris and his team really were fantastic. Professional, courteous and very patient! Cannot recommend enough.

Definitely the best removal company we have used and we will definitely use them again. We opted for the full packing service. Chris and his crew packed out goods with such care, making sure everything was done to a very high standard. A very cheerful, dedicated and likeable crew. They put great effort into ensuring we had our furniture set up just right at the new house. We can't recommend them highly enough!

My daughter used Barleycorn a couple of years ago (very satisfied) and as I was moving close to her and Barleycorn are based in this area, I obtained a quote from them. I was pleased I accepted their reasonable quote as they worked diligently and politely for a week moving us. Nothing was too much trouble, including driving a car from Kent to Berkshire for me. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Incredible service - the team of 3 arrived early, helped and asked if I had any queries on fragile items. The attention to detail - from laying mats down to protect floors/carpets, to placing all boxes into relevant rooms on arrival - brilliant. It was an effortless and stress free move! Would recommend Barleycorn Removals all day long.

Chris and his team did an absolutely brilliant job for us this month: they were extremely punctual, efficient, cheerful, and polite. All of our items were delivered safely, including lots of china and a number of plants, without any damage whatsoever. They even helped moved around some of the furniture that was already at our new house, and were kind enough to save a wheel that had fallen off of a chair for over a week until we realized it was missing. We can't recommend them highly enough, and will certainly use them again if the need arises.

From booking a move date through to completion, Barleycorn take the stress out of moving. They communicate promptly, turn up on time, pack and unpack with care and any queries you have are answered with a can do attitude. I’ve used them twice in the last couple of years and when I next move I’ll use them again.

The team who moved us worked so hard, nothing was too much trouble, packed carefully and super fast, delivered everything to exactly where it needed to be and found ways around all obstacles. Cheerful smiles and banter the whole time and even a kitchen disco at one point. The best service of any kind I’ve had for ages.

Chris was able to help us out with packing & removal service when we had just 10 days notice of our move. He came the same day as my call to do a survey & I had the quote by 9am the next morning. The rates were comparable & given our unique situation, he even built in a buffer to the quote in case our move went over 2 days so we knew what the extra day would cost if required. The team he sent were friendly, polite & super efficient - they also had great senses of humour & were a joy to have in the house. With a toddler & a newborn, we were fairly disorganised but they worked around us, guiding us on what essentials we needed for our last night & were back bright & early the next day to pack the final bits & move us. They bought an extra team member in for the afternoon to help with unloading and putting the beds back together & had us unpacked within 2 hours of getting the keys to the property. And in a bid to reduce our carbon footprint, Chris also arranged for one his team to come back & collect the boxes and paper once we'd unpacked 90% of our boxes. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chris & his team to anyone who needs a packing & / or removals. Absolutely first class service. Thanks for making our move that little bit less stressful!

Professional, courteous, careful, efficient, helpful. Chris and his team were just magnificent. We moved our household items to store and then delivered to new home a week later. Nothing was too much trouble. No breakages as all packed with great care. Price was competitive but outstanding given the service we got. Highly recommended and will certainly use in future.

Barleycorn did a big house move and also assisted with multiple tasks, moving items in and out of storage. The team were responsive, helpful, polite, punctual - and very respectful with my belongings. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

A very professional service. They were on time, polite and hardworking. They did not rush the job.

We were very pleased with Barleycorn Removals. They were reliable, helped out when my husband broke his arm and continued with the packing at short notice. The staff were cheerful and willing to help and we would definitely use them again. We also used their storage and they made our two moves stress free.

Absolutely amazing team of movers, best I have ever come across (and I've moved several times!). Chris really knows his stuff, and his various teams of packers and movers are outstanding. All of them were polite, friendly, professional and organised. All our items were carefully packed and loaded onto the van, and on the other side they took the time to make sure all boxes and items were where we wanted them (rather than a dump and run). Even better they were great value. Honestly, if you can, use these guys, you won't be disappointed.

We used Barleycorn to move us from a larger house to a smaller house, which requires work in the future. This meant that our furniture and possessions had to go in three directions - to the new house immediately, into storage for later transfer to the new house , into separate storage for transfer to another location. Chris Cox, the head of the company, visited, explained the best way to do this and prepared quotes. Barleycorn arranged not only the move but the storage and all of this calmly, courteously, very efficiently and with good humour. Dean and his team packed and removed everything going into storage on Day 1. On Day 2 they came back and moved us and remaining furniture into our new house. They were very responsive to all requests to mark up boxes etc and also taking things to the right room in the new house. More valuable and delicate possessions and furniture were properly packed and protected. Emails and phone calls were always answered promptly We feel we had a very personal service and thoroughly recommend this removal company

Pre-sales were friendly and fitted us in during the busy end-of-stamp duty time. They were incredibly good value. They clearly quoted on what we needed & explained what was and wasn’t included. The moving guys were incredible. Strong, fast and respectful. Thanks a lot.

We chose Barleycorn having received quotes from several companies since they were competitively priced and came across as knowledgeable and experienced. We were moving from Ascot into storage, to then be delivered to Broadstairs in Kent once the new house was available. Chris and his team were brilliant to deal with, everything ran like clockwork. They are a super-professional outfit, very careful with your house and possessions, and incredibly quick and efficient in moving everything. We wanted to pack ourselves, so they included a good range of boxes & packing material in the quote. They took apart the big furniture and reassembled the other end. They were careful to make sure everything was where we wanted, and nothing was lost or damaged in the extended process. The team were amazing in manoeuvring furniture through stairs and doorways that I didn’t think would be possible. On top of all that they were all very friendly and helpful. We really couldn't have asked for more and highly recommend them to anyone moving house, they really took the stress out of it. First-class business and service.

Barleycorn impressed us from beginning to end, putting us at ease at the time of quotation and seeing the job through to the end. Chris was amazing and the team were experienced, polite and good-humoured despite terrible weather and awful traffic. We were called Sir/Madam all day and didn’t hear even one swear word from any of the crew. Sounds silly, but this was brilliant for my children and we all felt safe and looked after during what was otherwise a lot of upheavals. The team respected our property and our belongings and went above and beyond to take care with our move. The packing service was super efficient too and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

We thoroughly recommend Chris and his team at Barleycorn. They were highly professional, efficient and courteous and it was a pleasure having them around. Nothing was too much trouble and the whole process, from first contact to completion of the move was stress free.

I can honestly say that using Barleycorn removals for my recent move was the best decision we could have made. I have moved many times in my adult life - internationally and within the UK and can honestly, without a doubt, say that Barleycorn are the most thorough, professional and trustworthy removals company I have ever used. We moved our family from our 4 bed house to a larger property during the most recent Covid lockdown. Barleycorn were sensitive to the need to keep their distance, whilst ensuring that our move was as efficient and timely as possible. Every employee was friendly, competent and a true professional. From quote stage through to completion of the move, every communication was stress-free. There was never a question in my mind that they wouldn't treat either our old or our new home with the utmost of respect. We didn't incur a single breakage, scuffed wall or lost item. Our entire move was conducted in a timely, pleasant manner. Once we'd managed to empty some boxes, Chris and the team even came back to take the cardboard away (we are very local for them). In short, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chris and the team at Barleycorn. They're not the cheapest company (because they are realistic about the amount of people needed and the packaging items you require), but they are without a doubt one of the best removals companies you will find.

I would gladly recommend Barleycorn Removals. Excellent job - professional and friendly service. Thank you to Chris and his team.

Chris and his team provided a highly professional and conscientious service and were a pleasure to spend time with in what turned into a 2 day job with one person returning for a third day to finish off, due to unforeseen difficulties fitting furniture in our new home. They took good care of our properties - old & new. And when a previous house sale and purchase fell through Chris was flexible and understanding with various plan changes and a cancellation. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Used Barleycorn removals as they were recommended to me by a trusted source. Not only did they make themselves available on a Sunday but also did multiple pick ups and did exactly as asked. As we put furniture into the new house, they even helped me move it didn’t when it didn’t fit. Great guys, thoroughly reliable, trustworthy, polite and a great service. Would recommend them 100% and would definitely use again.

We have used Barleycorn twice to move house and the quality of their work has been exceptional. Key things to flag: 1. Their customer service is fantastic. They provided a personalised quote and showed care and diligence to ensure the quote was balanced and fair. 2. They arrived on-time and finished the work as planned. They even came back and moved a piano without charge as we were unable to move this ourselves. 3. All the team were very friendly, supportive and very careful. They took care not to make any damage, and worked exceptionally as a team. You could tell they enjoyed working with each other. 4. They put the customer first - they asked when worked best for us, rather than do it based on their availability, and were able to fit us in around existing work. The cost was very good value for money, and compared with other firms I have used, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. One of the very exceptional firms I have come across.

Chris and his team were superb. From the moment we met Chris, he was professional and assured in meeting our move requirements . On the day, he and his team took very good care of our possessions. We had a long delay due to banking transactions. Chris was patient and when we were able to move in, his team were brilliant despite the late hour after a long day. Highly recommended.

Barleycorn Removal handled our move professionally, We received a friendly and excellent moving service from start to completion. The quotation was reasonable and clear. A move is always unnerving but we felt reassured by the professional handling of our move. The crew was punctual, friendly, experienced and helpful and did a good job. All points of the contract were met to our full satisfaction. We will definitely use Barleycorn Removal & Storage for future moves and therefore, we can highly recommend this company.

I would not hesitate to recommend Barleycorn Removals. The whole team were a pleasure to work with from the initial quote to packing / move day. They were friendly, efficient, conscientious & kept us laughing along the way. They literally became part of the family for two days. Thanks guys!

Barleycorn Removals sorted out my move impeccably. They packed up everything, stored it for 4 weeks and delivered it to my new address without any hitches at all. The team involved were courteous and extremely well-mannered throughout and took huge care with everything. So far only one thing has been broken and that was me dropping a cup on a tiled floor. I really cannot fault Christ at Barleycorn and would very highly recommend them to anyone in this area.

Barleycorn provided outstanding service in packing up my house, transporting everything and ensuring beds were built for the first night in the new home, then collecting the remainder from storage the following day, & building wardrobes. There were no damaged items, the staff were friendly, polite and professional. When I telephoned to say the boxes were ready to collect, one of the guys came straight over to remove them. Would I recommend them? Definitely.

Fantastic service as always from Chris, Matt and Dean at Barleycorn. Totally reliable, efficient and trustworthy, we have have used Barleycorn before and will always use them in the future.

The team were friendly, punctual, courteous and very fast. Good value compared to other companies. A huge help in a stressful process. I felt complete trust that they could just get on with the job.

I would definitely recommend Barley Corn Removals to anyone, there were friendly, efficient and took great care with everything. They also took to the time to check everything was where we wanted and offered to move anything if needed.

Definitely get a quote from Barleycorn. Competitively priced. What stands out is they genuinely do a good job from that first phone call to tidying up when they’ve finished. Barleycorn’s Chris Cox knows what he’s talking about and the team behind him took great care of our belongings and also the walls and floors. We moved from an upstairs flat with no lift to a townhouse with the lounge on the first floor. An expensive exercise bike, leather sofa, piano and large mirrors were among the items carefully moved. Worked round our dog too. Good communication and great customer service.

Barleycorn Removals were efficient throughout the removals process, and the team were good to work with. They took care of everything, and the packing was done well. They worked hard and well together, and helped to make our move as trouble-free as possible. We commend them highly.

Barleycorn provided us with a fantastic removal service - they were always cheerful, well organised, and the standard of packing and care over the removals was really outstanding. It was when we asked them to move more than they were expecting that they really helped us though - and they really went that extra mile to help us and made our move a success. Chris and the team worked really hard to make our move a success - we were so glad we had them on our side.

Barleycorn were excellent right from the start and even during lockdown took everything in their stride. The packing part was very efficient and took away a lot of the stress of moving, especially with young children. Chris and his team were very professional, reliable and friendly, nothing was too much trouble.

I was recommended Barleycorn from friends and we weren’t disappointed. The team were very professional and polite, carefully packed up things like beds and TVs and cleared the house quickly. Nothing was too much trouble the other end and we were settled quickly. Would definitely use again.

Barleycorn provided a pack & move to Suffolk over 2 days, all achieved with no issues and we have been very happy with their communication & service. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Chris and the team did an excellent job for us during lockdown and we were so glad we used their services. We would highly recommend Barleycorn Removals for it's professionalism, kindness and thoroughness. Everything was wrapped with great care. During a very difficult time during lockdown, Chris made us feel calm and well taken care of. They took extra care with everything and we left them to it. It was all handled really well. Thanks Chris and the team.

Chris came to our property to provide a quotation for our house move. We were provided with several options to suit a range of budgets. We decided to go with Barleycorn Removals due to the thoroughness of the quotation and the excellent first impression. Chris and the team at Barleycorn Removals were punctual, conscientious, and friendly. Our belongings were moved with the greatest of care and the packing materials were collected at our convenience at a later date. We always had timely replies to emails and calls and the service was very good from beginning to end. I would highly recommend Barleycorn Removals, thank you for making our move as easy as possible!

Chris and his team at Barleycorn were excellent and I am happy to recommend. From the initial meeting, we were impressed by Barleycorn as Chris talked about environmental credentials (reusing, recycling and biodegradable covers). Chris's price was competitive and there were no hidden elements. He gave us confidence that he and his team would have no problems with the job.The move was done over two days and the team were very professional whilst also being very friendly and helped to create a relaxed atmosphere. The move was done very efficiently, and our possessions were really well looked after - including good wrapping of fragile items and paintings. Thank you.

Easy company to work with, very reasonable price, and the guys who came to do the move were very efficient and friendly. The wardrobe wouldn’t get down the stairs so they dismantled it and rebuilt it in the new place with no problems at all. I’d highly recommend them as the service has been top notch from start to finish.

Great service from Chris and the team at Barleycorn! They were able to book us in with relatively short notice which was appreciated. The team came to pack one day and move us the next, they were all very friendly and professional and very fast in getting the jobs completed. The move was completed with no damage to either furniture or the properties themselves. Fully recommend Barleycorn and would use again!

The principal of Barleycorn reviewed our furniture and effects for removal against a comprehensive checklist and options for the level of service that we required. He promptly provided a detailed timetable and schedule of actions, with each procedure costed. He described the specialist range of protective coverings that would be used, e.g. covers for mattresses, soft furnishings, electrical items, plants, etc. The team of five duly arrived and worked with speed, skill, and care, loading and delivering to a 3rd floor apartment and 4th floor terrace. The effort involved was demanding and achieved with a positive and good spirited attitude.

Chris and his team stepped in at the very last minute to help me after another company had double booked themselves and let me down. In fact Chris cut short a trip to meet my family’s need and I honestly don’t know what I would have done without them. Barleycorn successfully moved my home contents from a larger house into a narrow 3 story house that didn’t quite fit the all of my furniture and belongings! Despite the rain and the amount of work involved the Barleycorn team were professional, calm, hard working, courteous and pleasant to be around all day. In terms of protecting my new home this team couldn’t have done more and took many precautions. To fit furniture in through tighter spaces the guys were prepared to remove (and replace!) anything they could such as handrails etc. I could not recommend this company more highly and admit I have never before felt such motivation to leave a review.

The team arrived punctually for my 2-day move and immediately engaged with their customer’s needs and priorities. Wrapping and boxing was carried out with a brilliant team playing approach, and their positive spirit working together was so helpful in easing the inevitable anxieties around the move. The next day the team arrived again in an upbeat mood. Boxes were placed correctly and stacked neatly on arrival; subsequently every single item was located and unwrapped intact. I have no hesitation in recommending them highly and send them a huge thank you for a job well done and for ensuring an otherwise very stressful process ran so smoothly.

Would definitely recommend - over 2 days they moved me from a big house to a smaller one with difficult access. The quote was very acceptable, and certainly not the most expensive I received, they arrived promptly on time and did an excellent job. All the packing was done with great care including special packaging for delicate items like clocks and canvas paintings. The men were professional, friendly and very understanding of what was quite a stressful move.

We had used Barleycorn for our own move last year, and hence had no hesitation in recommending them for our 70+ year-old mother, moving from London to Oxfordshire. As expected, the service was impeccable - polite, patient, efficient and empathetic service from an outstanding team, from every one of the movers and from the management team. The care which was taken whilst packing and moving was fantastic - great service from a fantastic local business. Thanks guys!

Chris, Matt and the team were excellent - from the moment we met Chris (owner) through to the packing up of a large house through to the actual move from Oxfordshire to Cornwall - and the unloading. Team were all hardworking, thoughtful & personable. Having now unpacked most things, everything in perfect order... and all at a reasonable price. We have no hesitation in recommending Barleycorn, and/or providing a reference.

Did not get much warning of our moving date and needed to book a removal company with little time. Barleycorn were able to fit us in and were friendly and professional throughout. The move was completed quickly and I felt our possessions were treated very carefully. The team were all very friendly. Reassembly was done very well too. Very pleased with the service and would definitely use them again.

Chris and his team were amazing. They went above and beyond to ensure our move went smoothly. I can't recommend them enough. They were professional, kind and did a wonderful job. Faultless. All of our furniture was wrapped and transported with care. We moved over 200 miles. The team worked so hard. It was a long day for them however they did it with a smile. Highly recommend Barleycorn.

We used Barleycorn Removals for our removal, they were very professional, clean, tidy and very polite. they made our move out day stress free and dealt with everything, boxing up, moving out of one property and then moving in to the new property making sure all the boxes went to the correct rooms. Barleycorn were recommended to us and we can highly recommend them and had a great experience.

Following a telephone call to Barleycorn, Chris immediately arranged a home visit. It was an experienced and extremely helpful assessment of what needed to done. Usually companies ask you to empty garden pots but Chris said that this would not be necessary. A real bonus as I have some very heavy pots. On the day of the removal the three men went about their task with a great deal of experience and were polite and friendly. When they arrived at the other property the keys had not been released to me and there was a great deal of confusion with the letting agent, who were very unhelpful. However when Chris heard he asked the men to remain and see the job through. Which they did and remained calm and patient. In the last few years I have moved 5 times and without a doubt Barleycorn has been the most efficient, friendly and fair company that I ever dealt with. Evan to refusing to charge me more despite the fact that the removal men having to spend the whole day at the property. Chris rearranged his rota to accommodate the mix up caused by the letting agent. I do not think you will find a better run company than Barleycorn Removals. They were absolutely marvellous.

Great service from start to finish. I always find house moving very stressful but Chris and the Barleycorn team did everything they could to make this part of the process as relaxed as possible. We opted for the pack and move option and are really glad we did. The day before our move a team of 5 arrived on time, laid down floor protectors before anything else and got to packing. They individually wrapped cups, glasses and anything fragile, dismantled beds and had our whole house contents in the back of the vans in about 6 hours. The next day they met us at our new property, (over 200 miles away) when they said they would. They again protected the floors in the new house and had our beds rebuilt and the boxes in all the right rooms in under 4 hours. Not a single thing was broken in transit and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Chris and his team moved us last week to Hampshire and they couldn't have done a more professional job. They were courteous, polite and most of all exceptionally careful! We had another quote from a national removals company but very pleased we went with a local business. I cant recommend them highly enough!

Chris and his team are fantastic. It poured all day but lads were happy helpful and very careful. We would recommend them time and time again. Price was great too.

Top quality service from Barleycorn removals. Helpful and cheerful staff, great attention to detail, nothing too much trouble - and tidy and efficient with it. Would recommend without hesitation. Mr & Mrs F

The Barleycorn team did a fantastic job moving us to the Isle of Wight. They were professional, courteous, helpful and worked extremely hard. A great team who took the stress out of move day. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Having worked with Barleycorn Removals & Storage at Mayfair Quarters for some time and recommended them to our clients, we have been really thrilled with the high levels of service and quality of their work. Chris has been amazing dealing with complex moves with small timelines and virtually no parking or lift access. However, he's managed to execute every move thoughtfully and brilliantly. We are delighted that through our great working relationship his firm have helped us put together the Business2Schools initiative. We are looking forward to providing much better infrastructure for schools and love seeing the Barleycorn lorries around Mayfair and the City picking up great furniture and tech being donated to schools. We can highly recommend his firm.

Eminently professional and friendly service from the first moment to the last. Everything was done to time and very useful advice was given. All involved were cheerful and helpful; nothing was damaged and the move could not have been more speedily completed. One can use Barleycorn with total confidence.

It was snowing and roads to our house not good but they persisted with good cheer and efficiency. They were very careful with breakables and very helpful negotiating a small access with large items to the extent of having to remove door!! They also put together beds and worked tirelessly until late in the evening when they had to make return journey in icy conditions.

Chris and his team provided a really perfect and on-time service for our house move. We had advice on preparing for the move, and the day before and on the day his team loaded carefully and efficiently - even managing to extract rather large furniture down narrow stairs with no damage to furniture or stairs. On arrival at the new address the team worked hard to get everything in the right places. Nothing was broken or damaged throughout. Added to this you couldn't ask for a nicer team of people - always polite, calm and considerate. Barleycorn were easy to communicate with - a really personal service. I thoroughly recommend Barleycorn and would certainly use them again.

I would completely recommend Barleycorn to move you. From the first contact, they were very friendly, flexible about dates and helpful with practical advice.Nothing was too much trouble. On the day, the team were nice to have around, polite and good-humoured, very hard-working, careful with our belongings and willing to go the extra mile to make everything go as smoothly as possible. It was a great service at a fair price.

Chris and his team were excellent. The pre-move survey was thorough and detailed and quite was very competitive. His team were well disciplined, scrupulously tide and efficient, and yet at no point on moving day did we feel pressured to get out of their way. They were patient and sympathetic to our needs in the day. Would definitely recommend.

From the moment they arrived at our old house to pack our stuff for storage, where it stayed safe & dry for 3 months. To when they delivered it all to our new home 250 miles away in remote Cumbria. I could not fault Chris or his team, the cost was bang on estimate, nothing was damaged-we were worried about putting electronics is storage, but everything is fine. Have already recommended them to friends.

I was recommended to use Barleycorn by one of my family whose mother had used them before. I cannot fault any aspect of their service, from the time Chris Cox came round to discuss the job with me - he was very thorough unlike all the others who I asked to tender - through the removal process on the day and even to coming along to collect the empty boxes a few days after the move. The team were very pleasant and efficient and all the boxes were well labelled and nothing was damaged. While not the cheapest, I would have no hesitation in using Barleycorn again and would certainly recommend them.

Barleycorn are a really lovely team, for whom nothing is too much trouble. Chris the manager took time to work out what we needed and offered us a range of options, which helped us decide what we could do ourselves. Their staff were efficient, practical and kind, especially with our 2 year old daughter. They moved us in just a few hours, breaking nothing. I hadn't expected them to also position our furniture for us, and to be so kind as to ask us if everything was where we wanted it to be and move it if it wasn't. They even returned a few days later to pick up unwanted boxes to be reused, so that we didn't have to throw them away. They feel like an old fashioned company in all the right ways and have the can-do attitude of a modern one. We will use them again without getting other quotes.

Chris and his team recently moved us from reading to wales; a house-full of furniture that included fiddly bits such as a piano. I couldn't fault them- reliable, well organised and polite, and very good value for money for the level of service provided. (They were also tolerant of our toddler and dogs- no mean dear!) Strongly recommended.

From start to finish, Barleycorn Removals have been outstanding. The empathy and care of Chris and his team was amazing throughout, listening carefully to our requirements, providing options for how much or little they could do us, and provided excellent advice throughout. Their patience with fluid completion dates, waiting for keys etc. was faultless. We also chose to have Barleycorn do the packing for us, including dismantling and reassembling beds and desks. They did it so much better than we could have done, whilst being amazing value too. Not a single item was broken or damaged in our move - so they saved us days of effort, hassle and risk, and made the whole moving process as stress-free as it could possibly be. The team who did our move clearly enjoyed their work, getting on well together, asking sensible questions of us throughout, and doing everything with care and intelligent consideration. We always choose to shop local whenever we can, and we're delighted to have found Barleycorn Removals - highly recommended!

Chris and his team were excellent! They turned up when they said they would, did what they said they would and were professional, effective and efficient. Highly recommended!
