Everything about the move was perfect, the timing at both ends was spot on and the work carried out with expert efficiency. I could not find fault with any aspect of the move. Well Done.

A stress-free move!

Extremely satisfied with all aspects of our move to another local property. The team arrived very punctually and worked continually over the day of packing, which they did. There was plenty of (some paid for by us) material to pack our own delicate/personal items. We had some awkwardly placed pieces of furniture to take out and, with great ingenuity and good humour, they succeeded without any damage. I don’t want to single out any one particular team member - they were all great, worked extremely hard over the moving day too, were very helpful and friendly. There were no extra costs, only very minor damage - all at a very competitive price. Overall very happy with our experience moving with FH Smith - thank you again to the guys!🙂

The company really care about their workers ensuring they receive breaks, and training, and are fit and knowledgeable. The workers moved my furniture with care and precision, were fit and able to work at pace, and knew when to break and what challenges to tackle first. I was completely overwhelmed at how quickly one person built my old bed frame. It would have taken me many hours to do on my own. They were a very well match pair who had different strengths and were open about what they found challenging. The teamwork was fantastic. They remembered things I forgot such as covering my mattress. The whole day was soooo calm as they were so reliable and took control. Expensive but I guess very worth it as I had zero hassle. The office staff were super too.

We were fortunate to have F Smith& Son removals recommended to us by a friendly property agent. What a top tip, from the first meeting with our estimator (Steve) very professional to contact with the staff at and finally with the team who worked with us over two days led by Chris & Lee with Jim& Conner. It was a highly professional and friendly no fuss and nothing is too much trouble company. My wife can not speak more highly of this the company and their employees. Thank you for making the transition from our previous home of 45 years to our new home a smooth trouble free and pleasant experience.

F Smith & Sons moved us from Surrey to Co. Durham. The move took 3 days which was the agreed timeframe. They were recommended to us and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others. The driver communicated with us by text and was good enough to do a slight detour. They were polite and efficient in the packing, loading, delivering and unloading. They rebuilt a triple wardrobe and a desk as previously agreed. I was impressed by their processes, a very professional outfit. The staff in the office have always been friendly and approachable.

The team of three arrived early on the day and were efficient in every way. Nothing was broken or lost. We were very pleased. Your quotation was very competitive and much better than using removers from our part of Surrey. We had not thought of using removers from the delivery end and are very glad we did. Excellent.

I had stuff in storage for over five years. Finally had it returned and I was amazed at the condition of everything. It all looked like it only went into storage last week rather than several years ago. Very happy with the staff when they came to put it all into storage and also with the staff who returned it all. quickly done both times with a minimum of fuss. I would happily recommend F Smith and Sons to anyone seeking short or long term storage.

F Smith & Sons were instructed to collected furniture already stored at a warehouse in Dorset and return to Croydon to resume storage at their own warehouse. Throughout the whole matter F Smith conducted themselves with sheer professionalism, fair with their costs and exceptional with their admin. It was a pleasure to liaise with Lorraine and John Smith, both of whom at all times could not have been more helpful to ensure the project ran smoothly. Which it did. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone in Croydon who wishes to receive good old fashioned service. Something that appears to have gone out of fashion these days.

The service provided by the team was excellent from the admin at the start to the loading and delivery on moving day. We had some particularly fragile items which were handled with care and attention. Nothing was too difficult for the guys moving our items, and everything went smoothly on what can be a stressful day. Thank you

This is the second time I've used F Smith and Son, and I wouldn't consider using any other removals firm. They are incredibly efficient, clear in their communications, and very accommodating. It's always easy to get hold of them, and they are always polite and friendly in their dealings. The removals people themselves got the job done in no time. So impressed and grateful!
