TFM removals fantastic

TFM removals were great. They worked very hard and were extremely patient while our completion took forever! Their customer service and attitude is faultless. Thankyou so much 🤩

Great experience

This company was excellent. The guys went over and above to help us out on the day. Moving is stressful, and they really helped to minimise the stress for us wherever possible. The sales process was not pushy, the company were really honest about what the best options might be and seemed genuinely interested in getting the most suitable option for us, even if it wasn’t with them. They came highly recommended and I we are very glad we used them, thank you!

Helpful, friendly, professional moving makes life easy!

We used TFM for our recent big move, which including consolidating items both in our temporary house and a storage unit. From the first contact I was confident that TFM would do a great job, and they definitely delivered! They were highly professional, help and advice was given at every stage, nothing was too much trouble, and the move went very smoothly despite poor weather. I would highly recommend using TFM for your move, and if we ever do again and it is logistically sensible we would use again. In comparison to other companies we had contacted they seemed far more focused on providing a great service at a very fair price, rather than selling on being the cheapest possible, which when you are moving your treasured possessions should be the approach. They came and inspected all items to be moved and there were no nasty surprises, which I am confident we would have had with some of the other moving firms. A big thank you to Ralph, Adam, Stats, and the rest of the team (sorry I am hopeless with names)!

Fantastic service from the very 1st…

Fantastic service from the very 1st phone call. Looked after us and our machines during the move, very professional. Will definitely use again

TFM stepped in for us at the last…

TFM stepped in for us at the last minute, after a different company became fully booked. And TFM certainly stepped up. Hard working, polite and focussed staff, removal from the house was done quickly and efficiently. Then, at the other end, when there was a delay in completion, the same staff worked hard to unload so that we did not incur extra charges. Very well done.

After a very long and arduous house moving saga - TFM once again we’re absolutely stupendous. From the very first phone call, during a particularly strenuous time trying to secure suitable moving date, Ralph and Josh were impeccable in their compassion, support and understanding. With the greater removal team then following up on the completion day with an unrivalled service. This meant the important start of a new chapter to my life was one of a complete joyful experience. And I would happily use them again if the need arose. (this was my 2nd time of using TFM for a house move). Thank you…

This is the second using TFM in a six year period. Nothing had changed Ralph and the team are outstanding every time, from booking , paying, accommodating dates, storage, packing and unpacking of containers absolutely faultless in every way- even in the 30 degrees heat did not moan once, professional and understanding. Would not hesitate to recommend TFM to others, hopefully we won’t move again but if we were to TFM will be our first choice always. Very competitive in price too - thank you thank you !

I think we first used Ralph and his team at TFM in 1990 when he moved my elderly grandparents from Suffolk to Essex , since then between our family we’ve had about 5 house moves and will only use this company . Trustworthy prompt incredibly helpful and just make what can be a stressful time better .

Had the guys in for a special job. Moving a large fish tank onto a stand. Absolutely brilliant! Very professional, fast to get more help when it was needed. Went above and beyond. Can't recommend them highly enough.

I was recommended TFM for our house move by a friend and it was a fantastic service from start to finish. Both Ralph & Sarah in the office went above and beyond to get me the date I needed when going back and fourth with solicitors in regards to completion date. Then on the day of removal, the service from the removal guys Stats & Josh was faultless and we were more than confident to leave all of our belongings in their hands moving to our new property. On top of that they also gave guidance on when to chase our estate agent & solicitor on the day to ensure we didn't get charged anything extra for any delays. Would 100% recommend to anyone without a thought.

I had a great experience with this company. They took everything from my old house to the new one in a very professional way. They arrived on time, they were polite and courteous. They asked me if there is anything that I would like moved or rearranged before they left. Sarah and Ralph in the office know what they are doing. TFM is one of the most professional company I have dealt with in many years. I strongly recommend this company to anyone who needs help with moving or storage.

TFM provided a professional, efficient, economic and effective removal service for us over two days in March 2022. The team was a pleasure to deal with, undertaking a complete packing service for our house, garden, summer house and shed on the first day, and loading, moving and unloading on the second. They also disassembled and reassembled bulky items, and treated all our property with great care. I would highly recommend TFM.

Used these guys today and had an amazing efficient and professional service. Only moved less than half a mile but still a big deal for us. They part loaded the day before and the remainder on the day. Unloading went very smoothly despite the heat. They even hefted our three seater settee up and over the first floor balcony when it would not fit up the stairs. Would definitely recommend them.

Great family run business! Have personally worked alongside Ralph and his sons for the last 15 years on moves across Europe. This is one of the few companies I would recommend. Mark (South Park Removals)

We’ll work out exactly what vehicles you’ll require on the day, how many crew members you’ll need and whether you’ll want us to provide packers or just the packing materials.

Through our meticulous planning process and 30+ years of experience, we will ensure the removal part of your move is a stress-free procedure – or at least one less thing to worry about on the big day.
