Having sold our second home in Northern Cyprus, my wife and I decided to move a quantity of personal possessions back to our UK home. Greens handled the importation and UK delivery of our goods on behalf of our shipper in Cyprus, and guided us through the process with care and consideration. Communication was excellent and the guys who delivered our boxes this morning could not have been more helpful. Highly recommended !!

We couldn’t be more grateful and happy with the team of extremely polite and hard working men. They went above and beyond our expectations from pickup to delivery, on a hot day, with cheerful banter and a very awkward staircase to navigate. Pauline, Richard and the team were so helpful and we couldn’t have asked for better care.

I used a removal company for first time and I used greens, as local to me. The whole service was excellent. The ladies Pauline and Lynne in the office were exceptional. Richard who undertook video survey, clearly understood the stress of moving. The team on the day were brilliant, worked so well as a team. Made the whole day stress free and worth every penny.

From getting the quote to moving in, the service was brill. We phoned many times and Pauline was so helpful. I went many times to get cardboard boxes, Pauline couldn't of been more welcoming. On moving out day Graham and Lee turned up on time and did a wonderful job, very friendly and obliging. The next day on actually moving in the new house they were there on time, couldn't ask for better removal men. Thank you Greens for a wonderful service.

Just moved to this lovely country and Greens Removal was appointed as my local handling agent after my shipment arrived here early April. Their team took care of the documentation and custom clearances swiftly and on the date of the delivery, I was so impressed by Gary and Mark... not only the two had handled all my boxes with care, but also the good work that they gave when my sofa+ottoman needed to go into the small lift which my building has! You guys are simply the best... thank you so much!

Immaculate service from the day I contacted the company. Not the cheapest quote but I had the feeling you get what you pay for, and this proved correct. The charming admin team were always prompt to reply to any queries before the move, and the removals team on the day were superb, just when you don't need any additional stress. Thoroughly recommended.

Three years ago, we packed up our house in Orford and put it into store with Greens. Their service in moving us out and organising storage was speedy, organised and reassuringly straightforward. Having finally moved out of London to Essex, we were able to call on Greens to deliver the household from store. Everything was clean, dry and in good condition. (I would also note that everything packed by Greens in the move from Orford was notably better protected than the goods we had moved from London the previous week using another firm.) The crews have been unfailingly polite, super cheerful and incredibly helpful throughout and the office staff too have been great.

We had sent a shipment from New York to the UK. Upon arrival, we had to chase the company to find out if the container arrived. They never replied. Many emails later, we were invoiced for additional port charges as the container was waiting not for us but for others sharing the container to pay their duties therefore we should pay the extra costs! We refused as these were additional charges that had nothing to do with us since we settled our duty charges as soon as we were told. (another tactic to take more money from customers, do not fall in their traps) Our items were finally delivered but our most expensive items were missing, so a 4 poster bed, 2 bedside tables and 2 lamps! These were from restoration hardware! There is confirmation that the items were loaded from New York but somehow these items are now missing in the UK. No reply from greens on what they have done or followed up so far.... no answer to calls or to emails (call everyday and email every 2 days)... the office reception is useless, apparently the people we need to speak to are too busy and using gdpr as an excuse not to put anyone through. Oh they are still calling me back since June when the container arrived. Debbie is the only contact apparently that runs the whole company. Please dont waste your time with greens. Do not use this company who do not value customer's business they only want to bill you and not deliver the service paid for. We are still waiting for our items.

As your shipment was received from NY Shipping in New York your complaint was passed to them to respond. Your shipment was under NY Shipping terms and conditions. Any demurrage and quay rent was payable by the consignees as this is not included in NY Shipping contracts. We understood your upset and repeatedly advised that you need to communicate with your origin shipper. We answered all of your correspondence with the same answer as you needed to process your complaint with the origin shipper. When you advised that items were missing the Origin shipper was responsible for loading the container and again we had to refer you to them for the claims process. There are no traps or tricks just the response that we are a service partner of the Origin company and provide import services in accordance to their terms and conditions. We hope you were able to resolve your complaint with the origin company.

We used Green Removals in Stowmarket who sub-contracted our job to TaxiTruck in Maldon with whom they work together. The move, from Clacton - on - Sea to Stowmarket, could not have been easier. These two firms both put themselves out for us and the 3-man crew of TaxiTruck were very accommodating, kind, funny and polite. We were out by 11.30am and moved in by 3.30pm. My wife and I are most grateful to both firms and highly recommend them to you if you need a removal firm. Don’t hesitate, you won’t regret it.

Greens packed our old house to storage, stored our belongings and then moved them into our new place from storage. The office team were quick to respond to queries and really helpful in planning dates etc. The movers were very professional. They were courteous and efficient and very patient with those inevitable moving hitches. All of our things were expertly packed and everything survived the move. The extra attention to detail like keeping cables and remotes together and clear labelling of boxes was much appreciated. We highly recommend Greens!

We were very happy with all aspects of the move carried out for us by the Greens team. This was a tricky move for a number of reasons; Covid restrictions; an unusually busy moving schedule for Greens; short days of winter; a narrow lane at the moving out the end which meant we couldn't use a large van; we had a lot of stuff including quite a few very heavy outdoor planters and some heavy workshop items; a long carry at the moving in end for these workshop and garden items as difficult access to the garage at the back, up a track and across the garden. The team did an excellent job all round. Right from the start, we felt Richard had a handle on what was required to move us, both logistically and personally to make things as stress-free as possible. He was helpful and friendly and worked out a great plan over 3 days to accommodate all the difficulties and on the days involved it all worked out really well. The team were hard-working, careful, courteous and friendly; they turned up on time and just did a really good job. It wasn't the cheapest quote we had but was well worth the extra cost to get the job done efficiently and as stress-free as possible. We trusted them and they delivered on all fronts. Would definitely recommend them. It felt like the personal service it should be but which is so often lacking these days.

Greens removals have helped me move more than once now. I wouldn't dream of using anyone else to be honest. I know i can trust them to deliver and look after my belongings without hesitation. The M.D. is always helpful and the staff are incredibly helpful and more importantly, careful and respectful with everything from decorations all the way to my massive sofa (Sorry lads!). Can't recommend them enough.

We moved from UK to Holland and decided to use Greens Removals. The trader was initially very useful and always replied promptly to my queries. After confirmation of the collection and delivery date (he told me two weeks after collection), I happily signed and payed the deposit. Then, things changed. The collection date was not available anymore. Luckily we had a fantastic landlord that helped us since we were in Holland already. Then: - Wait 2 weeks, I write an email and trader replies "No date, will let you know" - Wait 2 weeks, I send 2 emails and call 5 time in 5 days. No reply or "Will call you or write you later" - I got worried and angry. Finally I managed to speak with someone who apologized and confirmed the delivery day on the 12 of April, just more than 1 month and half after the collection. Of course we had all our stuff in the boxes, if we knew we would have or organized differently. - Today (12th April) we received the boxes and just noticed that the content of one of the boxes was put into another box (I don't know why) in a very messy way. The result is that most of the books are creased and some DVD have the case broken. We never got an apology from the trader only silence.

Thanks for your comments, I'm sorry to hear that you were not totally satisfied with your move. I am sorry that you have not contacted us directly with your complaints as we could have explained your delivery concerns more clearly. I have investigated and can see that your move was a part load groupage consolidation. The price you paid for the move was based on a consolidation (your items are moved in a truck with other consignments, and the truck is not sent to its destination until there is a full load ). Usually this is between 2-3 weeks but unfortunately, on this occasion, it took longer to fill the consolidation load – possibly due to the time of year and/or concerns over BREXIT. The price you paid for your move reflects this consolidation service rather than a dedicated service which would have been much more expensive, but could have provided a firm delivery date. I note your boxes were owner packed. Re-packaging would only have occurred if your packaging was insubstantial and failed in some way.

I used Greens to pack and store my house contents in between selling and buying houses. They were extremely efficient and careful in packing the contents. When it came to removing them from storage were very helpful in following instructions as to where things should go. Not only were they careful but personable and pleasant to talk with. Highly recommended.

This company has moved all our worldly goods three times backwards and forwards to France in the last 10 years. Not only are they very competitive, their guys work extremely hard to pack everything in using the space in the most economical way, with the utmost care. They worked non stop for 10 hours in incredibly hot conditions to get everything packed for us as quickly as possible. I cannot recommend this company highly enough and wouldn't consider using any other removal company. They now have our possessions in long term storage and I know they will be looked after well.

We used Greens as part of our move from Singapore to Portsmouth (for the UK portion of the move). Their HQ staff were helpful and accessible (Debbie) in all conversations. Dealing with the delivery and scheduling the move to suit our moving-in dates with a very tight deadline. The two men who unloaded the container were also very friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and helpful (very strong too), and we moved everything in double quick time. All in all, very satisfied !

We used Greens to move house from East Anglia to Southeast Ireland. Their office staff were knowledgeable, efficient, helpful and always accessible (thanks Sarah!) in taking us through the options, dealing with the marine insurance and scheduling the move to suit our dates with collection on 20th October and delivery on 7th November. We did our own packing. The two men who loaded the 30 cubic metres of stuff were also efficient and helpful (and strong), as were the two from ProLink, the Irish agents. We had a slight hiccup when the surveyor assessed our amount at the same time as Ophelia was heading for our house, and our sale fell through, but discussing it with Greens we decided to go with the amount originally contracted for and it went smoothly with a minimum of stress. The cost was also reasonable. Although we hope not to have to move again, if we did we wouldn't hesitate to use Greens.

We used Greens to move home because they were a local service that were friendly and easy to contact. Everyone we spoke to on the phone was knowledgeable and the man who came to give our quote made the effort to work around us. Greens was great value for money and much less than the other quotes we received from larger removal firms. The two men who came on the day made huge efforts to protect the carpets and walls in the old and new property and all our stuff made it in the same condition that it left. We would be happy to use them again.
