Long distance house move over 2 days from Staffordshire to Cornwall.

"The entire process with them was very seamless! They were very flexible and understanding when we had delays caused by our buyers solicitors, which were postponing the exchange of contracts.

They were also able to offer solutions and contingency plans, such as storage if the proposed completion date slipped. We didn't need these in the end, but it was a relief to know we had options if needed.

The team did the move over two days, packing up our Staffordshire home the day before completion and then unloading on the completion day in Cornwall.

The entire team was excellent- Zena in the office was always on hand to answer questions and communication was fab! Mike and his moving teams at both ends of the move were amazing! They were super efficient, friendly, tidy and moved our belongings 250 miles across the country with zero damages and no problems!

Thank you so much for making our move such a smooth, stress free process!"
 
 
Team:
Mike, Zena... unfortunately I can't remember the names of the men that packed and unpacked our contents... but everyone of them was wonderful, friendly, hardworking and made the process go so smoothly!

We moved from North Cornwall down to just past Truro. Not the longest relocation however we were downsizing which added its own challenges! We had already sold numerous pieces of furniture etc however we have a large number of wall framed pictures as well as the furniture left was large and heavy. We also had a vast amount of garden pots and furniture to be moved.

"The service we received was excellent, we could not fault MJ Christopher & Son. It was a last minute booking as our exchange and completion was brought forward unexpectedly.

Zena who managed the booking from the office was extremely helpful, accommodating throughout the days up to exchange as well as reassuring.

The team of 3 packed up over 1.5 days then unloaded over 2 days. They barely stopped for coffee and worked so hard we could not fault them working beyond what I would assume their normal working hours. Everything was packed with care using plenty of protective sheets and we had no breakages or damage.

Due to the access being up a narrow unmade lane they had to unpack twice once from the main lorry then from the smaller van they used to get up the lane to our new property.

I would highly recommend MJ Christopher & Son and would not hesitate to use again for value and the excellent service they provided throughout.

The move went very smoothly and efficiently, our items went into storage for a month hence the price and they kept us up to date with everything that was happening while our items were in storage.

"They came around and checked what we had to move and put into storage, sent us a quote and told us how much it would cost in total.

Our experience with them was very smooth and I would recommend them to anyone."

Move from Sussex to Perranporth with both locations having difficult access, requiring smaller vans to move contents to a larger vehicle for the journey to Cornwall and then the reverse at the other end with steep access to the house, a fair distance from the parking area

"The team were very friendly and worked extremely hard to ensure the move was completed in time, even working till late on the Friday to ensure all contents were delivered on the day

Packing up the house contents was very quick and efficient with everything labelled up making it easy at the other end to find those essential items"

The move was wellplanned. Zena in the office kept us upto date with developments.

"The removal went very well, ie, packing , loading and unloading at the other end.

They were courteous very professional and consulted us at every turn as to where the items were to be placed.

I would recommend the co to anyone.

Removal of all furniture from a house in advance of extensive building works; storage of all furniture for 11 months; redelivery and replacement of furniture in house

"Very helpful and informative precontract disucssions. Flexibility over precise quantity of furniture and storage required.

The staff who turned up to pack and remove were pleasant, helpful, and a pleasure to have in the house.

Same people came to redeliver and unpack - does not matter in particular, but the continuity was nice to have. No breakages or missing items."

We left our large family home in March and needed a storage facility as well as the actual removals. We know MJ Christopher’s so asked for a quote and went ahead. They loaded the vans in containers, extremely well protected and they went into storage for about 4-5 months. We moved into our new house a few days ago and we were booked in for them to bring our furniture and belongings back to us. They were helpful in moving items around the house when they didn’t suit or didn’t fit. Certain large pieces of furniture they carried to the garage so we could sell them on when they didn’t fit in the new house.

"We used MJ Christopher’s for a large house move that involved storage for five months followed by delivery to our new home.

The team handled everything efficiently and with care. They were cheerful and polite and made the process as easy as it could be. They were flexible throughout — happy to rearrange items as needed.

Highly recommended for anyone needing a reliable removal service in the Newquay area.
"

House contents and garden potted plants from Dorset to Cornwall, with a tranship service at the Cornwall end due to the restricted access. Interesting aspect: move undertaken during a heatwave.

"Second occasion of using this company due to the excellent service received on the first occasion. Was not disappointed second time round.

The team were punctual, polite, calm and orderly, diligent and hard-working and took obvious care with the contents and with the outgoing and incoming homes. Methodical and respectful throughout.

The weather conditions were extremely arduous due to the heatwave but the team simply carried on professionally. There were no signs of rushing to get the job done quickly. The pace remained steady and controlled which was reassuring to us during this stressful house move.

Contents removed from house to storage for building works and then returned to house.

"Advice and pricing was done very efficiently and the company was very accommodating as to dates when moves could be done. Packing was efficient. The staff were also efficient and polite. The company was a pleasure to deal with."

We moved from Cambridgeshire to Cornwall and cannot fault the service we received from Mike, Lewis and Nick. They worked very hard in the July heat and were professional in their service delivery. Prior to the move Mike conducted a site visit to check access restrictions and arranged a trans-ship. We would highly recommend MJ Christopher’s to carry out a stress free move.

"I would highly recommend this company, they moved us from Cambridgeshire to Cornwall and provided a professional service.
Zena took my initial enquiry and became our point of contact.

She answered all of my questions patiently and provided a timeline for moving day. As we had restricted access to both the property we were leaving and the same at our new home, Mike visited site and quoted for a trans-ship service.

The team were polite, friendly and worked very hard in the July heat.

We would have no hesitation to recommend this removal company if moving to or from Cornwall.

We moved a mile from our previous address in Newquay. Our belongings were put into storage and we rented for 4 months and Christophers accommodated us to rearrange our removal dates a couple of times,

"Christophers were very thorough. Very presentable removal trucks . The workforce were very smart on appearance. Our belongings were well protected and loaded on the their trucks responsibly. Everyone was very helpful. Christopher’s are a well established business and are always recommended for service and cost. We would always choose them for removals."

We moved from a rural cottage down an unmade track in Sussex to a seaside house in Falmouth. Both properties had their access problems but MJ Christopher dealt efficiently and promptly with any hurdles

Our move was to another county so our items were packed up on one day and delivered the following morning.

"The move went very smoothly over 2 days as we moved counties. The staff were very professional, polite and attentive throughout the whole process.

Although we packed the majority of the items, the rest was packaged very well, including a very old grandfather clock.

On arrival at our new property great care was given to establish exactly where we needed things put and nothing was too much trouble."

We were moved from Cubert to St.Austell. In addition to the full house furnishings and boxed items, you also moved a large number (about thirty) plants in large pots which also required a long footpath access to gain access to the rear garden of our new property. A second smaller van was almost completely filled by the plants alone.

"As a recently retired surveyor and estate agent, we have had considerable experience in the business of working with removal companies. Personally we have moved house nine times and always used a removal company.

We can say without reservation that M J Christophers and Son have been the most professional and caring company we have ever used both before and during the move.

We had become used to elements of stress on ourselves from removers on the actual day of the move but not on this occassion. The move combined with so many plants in addition, was far from easy and all day Mike Christophers and his staff acted with complete professionalism and not a single moan (as far as we knew!) Although we did our own packing, the standard of packaging for a large number of delicate items was excellent.

I did value the benefit of using a BAR member for our own protection and wish to thank Mike and his staff for their hard work and diligence."

Moved from a 3 storey flat with a large and heavy bed frame and a 2 and 3 piece sofa. Which was difficult as the door frame to hallway was at an awkward angle. All stored and kept with there compound. Till the day of the move. Moved all items in quick and very professional. Made moving, storing and then receiving my belongings a lot less stressful.

"Once contacted and member of the team came and noted all items in which he was able to give me a quote for the move, store and then deliver, which I thought was very fair. On the day the team arrived and immediately got to work wrapping all breakable items and moved all boxes from the flat to the van. Very quickly and professionally. Items were stored in a safe location for a couple of months until I arranged delivery.

In the delivery day. They arrived and started unpacking. Sheets was layed in the hall for protection. Each item they asked where and promptly placed. It was done in brilliant in a timely manor.
Was very impressed with the whole team"

Moved from a large house to storage with Christopher’s then on to a bungalow 7 months later.

"I have used Christopher’s previously on two occasions and time after time they have delivered a faultless move with no damages and a fantastic team of removers on the day.

They genuinely care and take pride equally they are very organised and keep a clear record of storage that enabled us to request specific items on the day being unloaded first. The support in the office is also outstanding and very efficient.

I can highly recommend Christopher’s from the numerous occasions we have used their service. They are simply excellent."
