About

Since 1928 Hadley & Ottaway has been a household name for removals, and in particular removals in Norwich. With 90 years experience, carrying out careful shipping, removals and storage services for some of the most discerning clients. No job is too big or too small for our team of expert removals staff.

At Hadley & Ottaway, everyone cares about your move. Many of the removals and office staff have been with the company for years and really understand just how important it is for removal companies to make sure that everything goes smoothly with your relocation. Our experience means that we can make moving home or office as seamless as possible, relieving you of any stress or worry during the moving period.

Our head office is based in the East Anglia region - this is the centre of operations as there is a dedicated training room, where new recruits and 'old hands' learn to pack delicate porcelain, barometers, grandfather clocks and pianos.

Hadley & Ottaway moved us from Norfolk to Bedford in a well planned and skilfully organised operation lasting over three days. The efficient, hard working, courteous and cheerful team took great care with our furniture and valuable possessions to ensure that everything was fully protected against knocks and scrapes. The service provided was not cheap but the cost properly reflected the high standards of care and attention displayed by the team throughout the move. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Hadley and Ottaway as a first class and reliable removals firm

Hadley & Ottaway team, Luke & Ralph were engaged to move our home & unload the same day in the same town. They were cheerful & professional at all times & worked very hard. The work was done on time and nothing was scratched or broken. Excellent in all areas. The office staff & transport manager were all very helpful & marvellous people to deal with. This firm is absolutely the best.

When the estimator came out we got the impression that the company was thorough and professional. This impression was proved correct throughout the whole move. The administration staff were extremely helpful, despite our ever changing completion date. On the two days of our move, the removal men were careful of our belongings and performed their work cheerfully. Not the cheapest, but certainly good value and the best service.

We have used eight times in our married life of 51 years. We have never been disappointed with our removal contractors, but Hadley & Ottaway Ltd surpassed all the others with extremely high levels of prompt and professional service. I was also greatly impressed with the courtesy and good humour of the staff, both the removal operative and the office staff.
