R & D Schofields moved me to my new home last week and I can not thank them enough for their help and support. Sam, Jason and Matty were careful, helpful, and above all efficient and managed the whole process with professionalism. The team in the office was also very helpful and this made my whole moving experience a stress free and relaxed process from start to finish. Thank you guys for a brilliant service.

This company is simply outstanding. We were very apprehensive about what we knew would be a difficult move and the other removal companies we approached didn’t seem to get it. Matt was totally professional, reassuring, and realistic. He actually came to our flat to check thoroughly what was needed - all the others did it online. He quoted promptly and planned the work meticulously. We could tell from their whole approach that this company were a number of notches better than the others, plus the fact they’ve been going over a hundred years. Communication was exemplary. They always returned our calls and were flexible as our exchange date kept changing. When it came to doing the actually job, the team worked brilliantly well together - two days of packing and one to load the van. I am so impressed by the care and attention that they put into looking after our things. Everything was carefully and respectfully packed. They worked hard and with great sensitivity. Nothing was lost or broken and they were brilliant at placing things in our new home. Always they worked with friendly good humour and what seemed like superhuman strength. Thank you so much to Jason, Barry, Jem, and Matt. They made a potentially horrid drudge, memorably positive. We’ll always remember Schofield's and highly recommend this brilliant bunch of people.

They could not do the original date due to our late confirmation but the one a week later went faultlessly over the two days. Phil and his crew were pleasant and capable. The three-piece suite would not fit in the first-floor apartment but they remained cheerful despite having to remove doors and feet in an effort to ensure it was not possible. Provided polythene covers when storing it in the garage. Would definitely use them again.

We used Schofield’s to move us from two separate addresses in Colchester, store our belonging for a few months and then deliver items to our new home in Halesworth. Very friendly company and fair competitive rates. Many thanks to Tony Ben and Sam for your efforts and skill manoeuvring large items of furniture into a town house with tricky stair configurations. Also for dismantling and rebuilding existing wardrobe that needed relocating to a lower floor.... your humour and patience was fantastic. If you want a suited, cap tugging service maybe Schofield’s aren’t for you, but if you just want a reliable friendly efficient move then give them a call. Many thanks for getting us safety moved without a single breakage or mishap.

Removal of our house contents had to be rearranged at short notice after our original company had to back out following delays with exchange prior to completion. R & D Schofield stepped in at short notice and saved the day. Despite a delay in money transferred, the team waited patiently to be allowed to unload at our new home, and wouldn't leave until we had assured them there was nothing else to move.

From our initial enquiry to conclusion in payment of their invoice, we were dealt with by all members of staff as though we were the only customer. The contracted information was clear and complete and insurance and related options were well explained and comprehensive. Some adjustments to the company's standard contract were negotiated to our complete satisfaction. Great care was taken of all our possessions and more was offered by the staff than had been contracted for, including packing of some china and glassware. All staff, whether managers, removal staff, accounts office, etc. were polite, smart and accommodating. All work was undertaken punctually into the rooms as designated. We know we are hard taskmasters but we can honestly say that there was absolutely nothing with which we could find fault and nothing more could have been done to provide us with the finest, most respectful, old fashioned service the like of which it is virtually impossible to find these days.

Following a recommendation we used R & D Schofield to move us from Colchester to Newcastle. We had a thorough pre-visit to assess the move which ensured everything went smoothly. On the day the team were hard working, efficient and friendly packing the van in good time and taking excellent care of our belongings. The team unloading us arrived on time and worked as equally hard. Absolutely nothing was damaged in transit and the guys were very careful moving items in and out of the properties. Both teams were a credit to the firm. This was a big move for us and Schofield's made it completely stress free. The online quotation and payment system was excellent providing an up to date customer experience from a firm with an historic pedigree. We would not hesitate to recommend this company.

I cannot praise all your staff highly enough for yet another fantastic move. This move was not straightforward as we had to take my elderly mother's needs into account but all your staff were incredibly helpful and nothing was too much trouble. As ever, they were punctual, cheerful, helpful and extremely careful with precious items. We couldn't have asked for more!

We have used Schofield many times as a family over the years and they have always been very reliable and cost effective. Very good service and they were happy to come and do a job in London/Hampshire when they are based in Colchester. As a result, the guys were up at 4am, but remained happy and cheerful throughout!

Phil was an absolute star. Everything was done quietly, efficiently and with care and consideration. Jason, Ross and Dom were delightfully friendly, and helped Phil turn what was a difficult couple of days for us into something much less traumatic than we were fearing. In particular, when we were tearing our hair out on the news that my parents’ apartment was not going to be ready until a few hours after it should have been, and we were feeling embarrassed about the consequent delay of the removal, Phil was incredibly understanding and was at pains to make sure that we were still completely happy despite the delay.

Schofields were recommended to me by the company I bought the piano from some 25 years ago. They said that they only used Schofields. When I telephoned I was made to feel welcome and valued. I was very pleased with the whole operation from start to finish which included them keeping my daughter informed (she being the person who was receiving the piano). And they delivered the piano within 5 minutes of when they said they would!
