About Us

     
 
Reputations are not built overnight
In Referenceline's view, this track record is more important than the ratings. Don't be impressed by a few old reviews which may not be representative.  Look for firms with a commitment to asking for feedback - good or bad - from their customers.  We recommend that you look for a track record of ratings and reviews in at least 9 of the last 12 months and that you should not be too concerned about an isolated negative review.  Ask the firm for their side of the story.
 


 
Code of Practice
Businesses have a legal responsibility to treat you fairly, but it's often hard to know what questions to ask or what standards to expect.  They are the experts and you should be able to rely on them to help you make decisions.  These questions explain the commitments that this business has made to follow a code of practice and they will help you understand what you have a right to expect.

 
Code of practice: 76%
Before the move, did your remover make you aware of the Code of Practice?
 
Description: 99%
Before the move, did your remover give you a clear description, price and timetable for the work to be carried out?
 
Loss or damage: 92%
Did your remover draw your particular attention to the contract terms relating to a). Liability for loss or damage?
 
Claims timing: 78%
Did your remover draw your particular attention to the contract terms relating to b). Time limits for making claims?
 
Cancellation: 87%
Did your remover draw your particular attention to the contract terms relating to c). Cancellation / postponement rights and charges?
 
Protection options: 92%
Before the move, did your remover explain your insurance or other protection options?
 
Claims procedure: 78%
Before the move, did your remover make you aware of the procedure for making claims and to whom complaints should be referred?
You can see how many customers have said "Yes" in answer to each question, but please don't expect 100% in every case.  Nobody's perfect and some customers may not be completely sure about the answer.  It's more important that you understand these questions and discuss them with the business so that you both agree what good service means for you.  A responsible business will be happy to explain the details to you and it's always better to clarify these points upfront to avoid misunderstandings later on.

House with easy access but on minor road so small vans used to shuttle things to large van. Long-distance move - nearly 300 miles move over weekend so took from Thursday to Tuesday to complete.
House moving into again in minor road, but managed to park large van outside the house, though arrangements had been made for another shuttle. House up 12 steps and awkward staircase to 1st floor. All dealt with ok
 

"The removal men were very competent and helpful. Some minor damage mainly due to awkward steps and stairs. A couple of pieces of wood (part of a bureau) were missing - but were not essential."

Customer Review
 
We moved across the Solent to a rural location that had restricted access.
The company took our advice and surveyed the property location to ensure that the appropriate vehicles were used.
 

"The team were extremely professional and made the experience stress free. The moving team were very engaging and polite and respected our views.
I would certainly recommended white and co to others in the future. "

We moved from a large house to a smaller one. Whites had to pack the house 48 hours before completion raner than the day before finished the pack on completion day unpacked over 2 days
 

"Whites were amazing even ___ it was not a straight forward pack. The guys who packed and unpacked us were patients, supportive, careful and made us smile. They worked so hard we are so grateful to Ray, Rich and the team!"

We moved from a large apartment to a much smaller one as an interim move with most of our belongings going into storage. Whites were very professional in sorting items and packing them.
