Efficient service
I used F Smith & Son to move a piano from one room to another in my house. Whilst this was a small job for the company nevertheless the whole process was dealt with in a very professional manner. The quote was reasonable and on the day I was promised a phone call giving me warning of the crew's arrival which I received. The crew arrived and efficiently and quickly moved the piano - no fuss, no mess and no damage. I have used this company before and following my recent experience would definitely use again.

Professional and Courteous
From my first enquiry to the last of my items being safely delivered to my new home, the whole team were absolutely fantastic. Aiden and John were brilliant on moving day and despite issues with confirming dates on my part they were quickly able to adapt to my solicitor schedule- thoroughly recommend this family firm.

THANK YOU
I would recommend this company to anyone. From my first call enquiring about getting a quote, to the moment the last lorry left my new house I had nothing but amazing service. Thank you F Smith & Son.

Efficient and careful
Had a great experience from start to finish with Smiths. Quote was thorough and answered all my questions. The office were very responsive and helpful when my dates changed, keeping me up to date with their availability. We paid for a packing service and Connor arrived a couple of days before the move to do this. He was certainly more speedy than we would ever have been- would highly recommend, and it was certainly beneficial to have most of our goods bar the large furniture pre-loaded in advance of moving. Our move day went very smoothly, despite being the hottest day of the year. The team loaded and unloaded everything carefully and we had no breakages at all- I was pleasantly surprised that the had unloaded everything before 3.30pm. Would highly recommend, both in terms of quality of service and on competitiveness of quote.

Fantastic job - would definitely recommend
A brilliant job from start to finish. From the initial video survey with Steve and the helpfulness of Lorraine in the office to the unloading at our new place in Preston, we enjoyed a thoroughly professional and friendly service throughout. Ian and Barry, packing on day one in London, and Ian and Richard unloading on day two were thoughtful, good humoured and approachable, and kept us informed of how the job was panning out. Everything was well packed using the proper protective covers where necessary and each box labelled clearly. Cannot speak highly enough of the service and would recommend this firm to anyone.

Great friendly quick service
Really happy - we paid extra to get them to pack for us which was the dream. Meant we could focus on moving our new baby and 2 cats. It was all done quickly with zero breakages. Not the cheapest quote we got but definitely the most professional. Glad we went with them.

Exceptional
We recently moved and requested the move in two parts. We initially moved all boxes and crates followed by all furniture. Throughout the whole process the level of service was exceptional. The team we had were respectful of current social distancing and handled our belongings with great care. All items were placed exactly where we asked. Our moves were totally stress free as a result of all of this. We could not fault them on anything from start to finish.

Excellent removal company
We used F Smith and Son to pack and move for us. We have 2 young children and the packing service was invaluable for us. It meant we could live normally right up until the day before the move. We also moved during lockdown and they wore masks, kept a social distance and as we couldn’t go out while they packed (it was raining), they were so considerate to this too. The day of moving went so smoothly and they made it totally stress free. Would highly recommend.

Professional movers: efficient and careful
I was impressed with F Smith & Son before the move day even began. The virtual 'pricing up' was organised quickly and reassured me I was dealing with a company who valued customer service. Ian and Connor provided excellent service helping me move furniture and fittings during a house move. The dimensions of the furniture and the parking availability weren't the best, but all work was completed effectively and with a smile. I was particularly pleased with the service when we arrived at the new property; care was taken with my items and they were all placed in the correct rooms as specified. Furniture which had been taken apart was back together correctly, almost in the blink of an eye! Thanks very much - highly recommended.

Couldn't be happier
I got quote from 3 companies and was so surprised when this one came in cheapest, as they were by far the most professional and organised - they had thought of so many things that hadn't even crossed my mind. the 2 days of packing and moving were positively enjoyable. The team that came were jolly, polite and very efficient. They were also really considerate, asking about where I might want stuff or if I wanted something left out for the car etc. Thank you so much!

Very well executed flat to house move
Selected them to move us from a two bedroom flat to a 3 bedroom house. One person packed up most of our entire flat up in one day, working very hard whilst still wrapping and packing it very safely and two moved us the next day. Boxes were well labelled so we could find stuff after we arrived. Portable wardrobes for hanging clothes. Original estimate was well done and explained. Cheapest part of the move(!) and well worth it.

I used F smith for my move from Surrey to Lancashire - the journey up was terrible with snow and sleet and the delivered and unpacked as planned. Both the guys were friendly and protected both homes whilst taking things in and out. NOTHING was broken at all and the guys were polite and funny. I would highly recommend

House removal to 2-bed flat on 6th floor building
F Smith & Son did a great job. All went smoothly from start to finish. Upfront visit to give quotation was very professional and friendly. Quick response on my initial phone call. Actual removal went without a hitch, 4 friendly and professional staff arrived, nothing was a problem, the bad weather, the dog, the 6th floor flat to move me into. There was a lift but one item had to be carried on the stairs! This is a firm I can warmly recommend, their experienced staff has seen it all before and do a great job with a smile and understanding. Not a single item was damaged or even scratched.

A great removal company!
I've used Smith & Son for my last 4 moves, and I honestly have nothing but praise for them. They are professional, courteous, and make your move as easy as possible for you at an extremely stressful time! From the initial survey, they offer a service that they have perfected over the years, regardless of any obstacles or challenges that may present themselves. I cannot recommend them enough, and will certainly use them again in the future.

Great job!
Having never used a removal company before, we decided to obtain 3 quotes. F J Smith was the first and from the word go I had decided this was the one! Steve came to give us a quote, he was extremely polite, courteous and very professional, explained the whole process and put our minds at rest. The quote was fair and competitive. All communications with the whole team before during and after the move were excellent and any queries resolved. Chris and Aiden came on the first day to pack, again very personable, professional, efficient and hard working. The day of the move could not have gone smoother, they arrived with 3 other members of the team to continue and finish packing and loading who were also great. On arrival at our new home, whilst waiting for us to arrive, socialised with the neighbours with tea and biscuits and then proceeded to unpack, put certain things where we needed them and left the boxes in the appropriate rooms. No damage done, our new carpets were protected, again all very polite, professional and hard working. They left us in our lovely new home, happy and contented. We would just like to say Chris managed the team and the whole move very well. We also appreciated the telephone call the following to check it had all gone to plan and by the way we found our box containing washing powder etc, as expected!! We have no hesitation in recommending F J Smith and Son for any further movers out there. Once again a very big thank you to you all.

Packing and moving
Chris and the team did an excellent job for us packing and moving us from Alexandra Road to Temple Road. The packing on the day before was super efficient and most of the packing and loading of the boxes and furniture completed in one day which we found impressive. The guys all turned up on time both days, early in fact on the first day, and again were efficient in moving the remainder of our belongs the morning of the move. They exceeded our expectations throughout by having us in the new house midday on the Thursday. This included stopping off at a storage lock up to pick up additional belongings. Throughout the process the guys were good humoured, professional and had a great attitude - nothing was too much trouble. I would have no hesitation in recommending F Smith and Son to others. I have experienced many moving companies over the years and they are the best in terms of service, value and efficiency.

Delivery of furniture
I was very happy with the way this trader delivered my furniture and goods which had been in storage. The men were very pleasant, friendly and helpful. They put back together everything that needed to be and placed them where I indicated The work was completed quickly, efficiently and beyond my expectations.

Excellent, Professional Service
The service provided by Ian, Barry and Dylan meant that our house move was stress free (unlike other moves in the past). They arrived on time equipped with everything to ensure that both the property and our belongings (blankets for furniture, hanging rails, a few extra boxes) were protected throughout. Working with both care and speed, we were settled in our new property by mid afternoon. A really nice bunch of guys too who are professional movers with lots of experience. Thanks again to Ian for reassembling what is quite possibly the most awkward bed ever made. Highly recommended!
