I've used Schofield Removal for both private and commercial moves, every time the members of staff are efficient, friendly, careful and very helpful, even when you want them to keep moving things to another location. Even someone as fuzzy as my husband with his upright piano has been impressed with the service and this is the fourth time we have used them to move house. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who asks for removal firm and have done so on many times. Big Thank you to all the staff who help with this move.

The company had sufficient resources i.e. vehicles and staff to ensure the agreed plan could be achieved. The plan did have to change a few times but not without our consultation and agreement. All the staff were polite and courteous, handled our possessions with care and ensured everything was protected for transit. The vehicles all carried the appropriate securing equipment i.e. blankets, straps, covers for televisions, mattresses, lounge furniture etc.

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.

From first contact extremely helpful and allayed all our fears regarding moving a piano to 1st floor flat up steep stairs. As promised we need not have worried. Courteous, very friendly staff who could not have done more to make the move seamless.

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!
