We found the service excellent in all aspects. Very clear advice beforehand on packing needs and a very reasonable price. The three guys who did the move were very efficient and careful. They were very friendly and helpful throughout the whole process even when we were changing our minds as to the location of items. Thoroughly recommended.

Grand Piano and household removals

We've used Tripp Removals and Storage 7 times over the past few years, including full household moves, and a 250 mile move and storage of a grand piano. This most recent work involved the temporary removal of a grand piano for the purpose of refurbishing the room. On each occasion, we have found the staff members to be conscientious, good humoured and efficient. The pricing is always reasonable, and I enjoy working with this local family business.

The entire service from Tripps was excellent. From the first visit and quote to Alison on the end of the ‘phone, and the removal team itself, led by Nick, the whole experience was a hassle-free as possible. Everyone was very flexible and can-do. We arrived at our new location to find one end (the convenient end) of our road was closed, which meant detours and a narrow winding approach but the team just got on with it, also having to decant to a smaller vehicle. They remained good-humoured and helpful throughout the four days we spent together! Would thoroughly recommend!

Terrible Service
Customer Service
Quality
Value
Tripp provided a terrible service to us during our move this year. We paid for special packaging of expensive curtains, and found them rolled up at the bottom of a cardboard box, with items on top of them. Delicate ornaments were broken and seemed randomly packed. Our Wardrobes were only partly reassembled and badly damaged in the process. The assemblers (we were told they had 30 years of experience) gave up saying they were impossible to reassemble. We found they had broken metal brackets and fitted parts the wrong way round!! As pensioners with no experience, we managed to reassemble them correctly, but the butchery of them is still apparent sadly. Our complaints were met with a combative and defensive approach, and no offer of compensation.

Recommend them to any and everyone. They have very competitive rates and take good care of your stuff. We used Frank Tripp at for two house moves and storage. Both moves and removals in and out of storage went smoothly and to our complete satisfaction. We originally chose them because we liked their vans-they clearly did not spend too much money on brand new vehicles every year-which keeps their prices just right for us! The moving guys are punctual, careful and professional. I was especially impressed by the assistance of Alison in the office, sorting out a tricky change of contacts and billing with Power of Attorney issues. Couldn't be more helpful.

I was so delighted to find a local, family firm to do this job. Your willingness to take on a tricky task like this has made our lives so much easier and saved a lot of precious things for me. We were under acute pressure to get the house cleared in a very short window. I do feel a very deep sense of gratitude too for the efforts put in to 'managing' this for us all, it means my boys get their inherited things from their Grandmother in perfect condition. I've been so well looked after. Attention to detail, excellent communications with all involved has made it work so well. Thanks to all you staff for helping to make this traumatic and emotional move as perfect as possible.

Tripp's removal crew were on time with covers for the floors, main suite & TV. They worked efficiently, quickly & in an organised way. They were in good humour despite the weather & made it as pleasant an experience as house removal day could be. My belongings were not wet or damaged in any way & the TV was set up & the very large wardrobe put back together efficiently. The whole service was excellent. I would give them the best of recommendations to any future customers.

Superb service from Tripps from the initial enquiry call with the team in the office through to the guys who arrived to pack and then the actual day of the move. Very professional and friendly service. The removal guys have tremendous stamina and handled our belongings with dexterity and respect. They kept smiling regardless of the challenges encountered (our loft space being one of them) and have a good sense of humour too. Would thoroughly recommend.

We moved from Hampshire to Cornwall last week. The lead up during the quote stage with the online system made life pretty easy. Liaising with the office very easy to do with charming and polite staff, and on the move day we were kept informed of arrival time, what was to be done by when and the team worked like Trojans to ensure all went well. 250 miles later the off load was very efficient - nothing broken and all done very efficiently. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tripp Removals & Storage Ltd for what removal needs you have.

We had all the furniture and contents of a large four bedroom house (including the garage) moved into temporary storage.

They always arrived on time and were very efficient. Additionally, their pricing was very competitive. We would definitely recommend them.

Hola from Spain, Simon. Just a quick email to say thank you for the great service provided by your company. In particular, please pass on my thanks to the gentleman who moved our furniture out of our home at Dobwalls and then into our new home in Spain. They did an excellent job and having unpacked everything now, I am pleased to report that not one single item had been broken, not even a bone china teacup from my posh Noritake tea-set that they moved, so a massive thank you to them. Please feel free to show this to potential customers as a testimonial of the excellent service that can be provided by Tripp Removals & Storage.

Did the the job but lots of breakages
Customer Service

Value
The people were really friendly and were able to offer us storage while we completed on our new home. Unfortunately, there were a lot of breakages, which we think were probably due to the extra number of box moves, I.e. on the truck, off the truck, on the truck and off the truck. A number of the boxes were crushed on arrival which obviously affected the contents. We’d probably use them again but wouldn’t ask for storage.

Tripps service with my Mum's move
Customer Service
Quality
Value
Simon and Allison in the office were brilliant in encouragement and flexibility, keeping options open as the move of my 80 year old Mum was delayed. We moved a short distance on the Lizard and the smaller vans had to be used because of the narrow lanes, but with packing some on a previous day by Martyn and being able to complete the following morning after the main moving day, all essentials were carried over and the moving Crew of four made us as comfortable as possible. The property we had bought was being cleared by a different company who were very slow, so our Tripps Crew helped THEM pack their van before unloading our goods and chattels into our new home! The four "boys" were very efficient, tidy and polite.....they certainly didn't hang around, but took care in moving items from house to van and van to bungalow. We would certainly recommend Tripps for moving and we can't thank them enough for what they did and the manner in which they did it.

Alison and Simon were helpful.Brilliant. Moved several times before and they were the best- the men do more than is required from their jobs. Wonderfully friendly, move the furniture and ask opinions on where to place it. Cover all house with sheets to ensure no mess is made and ensure every box is placed in the correct room. Their export wrapping is also wrapped beautifully and never damaged.

Martin and the team packed up and moved all my belongings to new house. They were brilliant! It was a difficult move with delay in completion on my new property but they were brilliant in dealing with any problems that arose during the move. We had to move things in to storage and arrange for someone to take a door off etc, but it was no fault of Tripp who were helpful and oblinging and offered a full, excellent moving service.
