   If Carlsberg did removals

   Move from Uxbridge to Cardiff. Over 2 days October 2024. Total cost of packing, packing materials, and the move carried out by 5 members of the team over 2 days. £3276.59. I cannot praise Kelvin and his team enough for helping us through the extreme stress that moving house always seems to put you under. We certainly feel that we were very lucky in being able to employ the services of Kelvin, Andy, Joe and the 2 lads for our long move to South Wales. We had a few works of art to move, fragile ornaments and several items consisting of glass shelving so we required a removal company that would be careful, respectful and knowledgeable of packaging and safe transit of our goods and most certainly Allen & Young were excellent and completely faultless in carrying out this task. As agreed, Andy, Joe and the 2 lads turned up on time the day before the move with all the materials needed and proceeded to carefully pack all the items that we required to take with us, mark the contents on the boxes, and put them on the van. All the lads were friendly and cheerful. Nothing was too much trouble for them even though a 10 hr day must've been tough they worked tirelessly until every item was on the van. The following morning two vans headed for Cardiff and 5 cheery faces greeted us in our new home. Each item was placed in it's required room, not an easy task when moving from one 3 story house to another. A 1st class job from a 1st class company.

   Move from Greater London to Hampshire

   Absolutely first rate. Kelvin and team were thoroughly professional, friendly and took great care with the move. Nothing was too much trouble and the whole process was entirely stress-free. Absolutely recommended.

   Saint Kelvin!

   We recently moved from London up to Herefordshire. We had a large, four storey house which was full of furniture and objects acquired over a thirty year period We moved to a much smaller property and knew that it would be quite a task storing all the boxes and furniture. Kelvin had accurately estimated what type of boxes and how many we would need. He planned to move us in two vehicles over a four day period. The move began on a Monday with Kelvin, Andy and a friendly team of very professional guys who arrived on time . Moving house is extremely stressful but we were in excellent hands. Nothing was too much trouble and everyone was polite, respectful and kind as they carefully packed their two large vans. The unpacking of the vans at the new property the next day was as expertly done. The attention as to where and how to stack everything from the old home into the new one was accomplished with constant checking that things were going into the places where it would be easy to see the labels and find again. We really can’t praise this company highly enough and wholeheartedly recommend them if you want a trouble free move by an experienced, kind and very professional crew

   Great packing and moving

   We have used Allen & Young twice to move and on the second move, we used their packing service as well. The movers are friendly, helpful and professional. Their packing service also helped significantly to reduce the stress of the move the second time! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a removal company.

   Absolutely first class service from Allen and Young

   I can honestly say Allen and Young removals far surpassed anything I would have imagined from a removal company. They work very hard, carefully, and quickly. All the gentlemen who helped us were very personable and helpful. We had lots of items to still pack away on our moving day some heavy, some delicate, some big and everything in between, all packed and moved expertly. Without them our moving day would have been very stressful. When we arrived at our destination they unpacked everything where we wanted them and made sure we were happy before they left. I would not hesitate recommending them to my friends, family and everyone else and it takes a lot for me to recommend anything or anyone. Allen and Young were recommended to us and to say we were not disappointed is an understatement. If I could shout how amazing they were from a hill top so everyone could hear I would but since I can’t I write this very honest and accurate review.

   If you have to use removals - you can't do better than Allen and Young

   Kelvin, and his team really set our house move off to a good start. They took the dishevelled state of our home in good spirits as we dismantled 16 years of family life. The only comments they ever made were compliments/ at both our old and our new house. They packed our fragile and electric items fantastically well and labelled everything clearly enough that we have had no trouble unpacking. And they cheerfully put up with the many boxes we had packed far less expertly. Kelvin did his best to keep the costs reasonable. It was a very long day and not one of the team complained or slacked. Our friends commented on how hard they were working right up to the end- traipsing up and down three flights of stairs

   The best movers in London

   Had a really positive experience with Kelvin & the team. They were really friendly, reasonably priced, and got our possessions from A to B hassle free. Will certainly use them again & would 100% recommend them to our friends.

   brilliant

   Moving is so stressful and Kelvin and the team did such an amazing job on this super hot day in summer. I felt really looked after, and they made sure I was happy with everything before they left - totally fantastic to have such reliable and friendly movers. Thank you.

    Professional, friendly and reliable

    Really appreciated Allen and Young's service from start to finish. A very reasonable quote with (unlike some removal companies) no hidden costs; friendly and helpful staff, all done in good time and with appropriate care - no breakages or other damage. Would definitely use them again.
