   Excellent service

   Couldn't recommend Bishops Move highly enough. Sharon Hack a steady and sure support in moving my mother, who has dementia, from Australia, securing an equally excellent Australian partner - working together with the hugely helpful Tom at Conroys. Both went above and beyond to make this difficult move as smooth as possible. Brilliant. Don't hestitate to contract them. Would have been so much more stressful without them.

   Moving made easy

   Hi Sharon The move was absolutely seamless, superb service from both yourself and your colleagues in the office, and the friendly and efficient removal teams. Everything arrived in perfect condition. I have already reviewed you guys on Trustpilot, and somewhere else (maybe an internal review?). I wanted to thank you all for making a very stressful time much easier by providing such an excellent service. I will gladly recommend you to any friends and acquaintances.

   BEST MOVING COMPANY EVER

   This was a very personal move of items from my family home in England to the USA. I could not say enough about the professionalism from customer service (thank you Sharon) to the packers and shippersin theUK and process and delivery company in the US. Precious, irreplaceable items arrived to me in the timeline given and with no damage. Don't look any further ... just use Bishops Move!! Thank you

   Great job - From an Ocean Away!

   We had to head back to Canada because of the Covid situation. Because of that, we had to arrange our move from there. Bishops Move did a great job! Sharon was extremely helpful, kept us up-to-date on where are contents were - and did all of this at a fair price. Certainly would recommend.

   Moving from Aldershot (UK) to Stanvanger (Norway).

   My firm asked me to get three quotes , Bishops was by far the cheapest. Barry the Guildford rep, turned up on time, he was dressed smartly and was extremely knowledgeable. (One of the other firms did a video survey and one just asked what size the other firms said). By actually sending a rep, he could advise us better than the other two firms. John and his crew from Guildford turned up on time and immediately started packing our stuff, I'm convinced that our container could have been thrown of a cliff and our furniture would have survived it was so well protected. They all work really hard to get the job done. Sharon at the head office was one of the most helpful people I've ever had the pleasure of working with, I was constantly updated on all matters. She also had the brilliant idea of sending our furniture by sea container, (Immingham to Brevic) rather than doing a road move all through Europe, this meant we got our furniture 7 days faster than the other two quotes had predicted. Thanks to her, we had a lot less stress. A first class service through out and I would thoroughly recommend them/.

   Move from Devon to Greece.

   We obtained several quotes for our move with Bishops being very competitive. Their experience in international moves was proven when they were the only company to advise that we needed an EU declaration form. On the administration side, Sharon was exceptionally helpful and recommended then coordinated with a clearing agent in Greece. We filled a half container with the estimator who visited the house getting the volumetric spot on. Packing took two days with the team, led by Graham, working efficiently and expertly. During the move and up to delivery at destination, Sharon kept us fully informed of progress. All of our furniture and personal effects arrived safely and undamaged. We were really pleased to have found Bishops Move and thoroughly recommend them.

   Response from Bishops Move

   Thank you very much for the kind words! We have passed all of the feedback onto the relevant branch and employees.

   Poor service.

   Removal men arrived at collection house with insufficient clothes hanger boxes for our wardrobe clothes. Consequently, the crew stuffed many of our clothes into a large cardboard box for transit and my wife and I were required to take many clothes in our own car. The crew also stated upon arrival that as they did not have a power screwdriver they would be unable to dismantle our 3 beds within the booked timeframe. As a consequence my wife and I were required to dismantle 2 beds ourselves. The worst act was that the crew decided to remove our fridge freezer doors to allow easier transfer to the truck, despite our informing them that the unit had been delivered and installed without needing to remove the doors. As a consequence the door hinges were damaged and the unit is unusable. Bishop’s move have refused to compensate us for the damage, which was not accidental as the damage was caused by their own employees actions in attempting to remove the fridge freezer doors unnecessarily. We have been told to claim on or own insurance policy, which we feel is completely unreasonable.

   Response from Bishops Move

   Thank you for your review and we apologise for the issues that you have experienced with us. We have since resolved this matter with yourselves directly and hope that you would not be discouraged from using us again.

   Poor communication, awful packing and delays

   Communication was poor, the packing was shocking (leading to damages/breakages at the other end with items rolling around and mixed up) and there were delays with my items arriving (an overseas move).

    You Pay for Insurance but it's a Very Slow Process.

    My removal on the 3rd July was great with only 1 breakage - dropped whilst unloading at new home. Verbal agreement to settle for breakage, forms and photos sent to Oxford branch and then there was nothing! Nobody seems to be bothering about it!
