1 Bed main door flat moved to 2nd floor flat. Bed, sofa, chest of drawers etc and lots of boxes. Required street permit parking which Blackhall arranged for us.
 
Cost: £750
 

"These guys are the best movers I have ever had - and there have been a few! My husband was overseas working at the time of the move and so we contacted 3 different providers, Blackhall were the only response and they responded promptly. Everything ran exactly smoothly, as expected and as they had planned. They made the entire experience seamless and completely stress free. The crew were brilliant, polite, quick, careful and professional. I don't plan to move again soon but will without a doubt only use these guys in the future."

"Moving is stressful. Simon and his team have the emotional intelligence to understand this. They get it. They turn up on time, make the whole family feel at ease and then set about shifting gear with empathy and care. We moved over two days, they made it as comfortable as possible. We had been in our current house for 17 years so had a lot of stuff. Everything went from A to B without so much as a broken glass. Even when we added a trip to a storage unit on the day they dealt with it perfectly. They were brilliant.These guys are brilliant, if you are moving, use them with confidence."

Customer Review
 
Moved from a 2 bedroom flat situated on a busy road to a bigger property in a more rural setting. We required full packing service as we have young children so didn’t have the time to complete ourselves.
 
Cost: £984
 

"I booked Blackhall for a quote a couple of months prior to our moved, and Simon attended and completed this quickly for us. I had shopped around but they came back the cheapest and I was happy to go with them after reading reviews and meeting Simon in person. They were prompt in sending a quote too, and Vicki who deals with emails was efficient and helpful.

Come moving time Blackhall were extremely helpful, friendly, thorough and efficient. They turned up when they said they would, and their estimations of how long things would take were always accurate. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I was worried that we didn’t have an exact entry time but this wasn’t an issue and something they were used to. After gaining access everything was put into the correct rooms very swiftly and they were on their way.

Couldn’t recommend them enough, and will use again if we ever have the need."

Full house move from city to out of town, including dismantling/reassembling wardrobes.

"It has been an altogether excellent service from the first contact with Blackhall to arrange a quote, through to final delivery of the removal.
All questions were readily answered and a thorough survey was done of the property before getting the quotation. The actual move was performed by an impressive team who were well drilled in all aspects of what was required. Everything ran on time and all boxes and furniture were delivered to where we wanted it. Thanks Blackhall, for making it a stress free move!"

We moved from London to Edinburgh and required the team to be very careful with some precious items. Simon and the team were brilliant as always, this is the second time we’ve used Blackhall. Nothing was a problem. We lived in a 3 storey townhouse and moved to a bigger 3 storey townhouse with lots of steps, the guys never complained once!
 
Cost: £2700
 

"Brilliant care and attention. Friendly and fun to have them around. Everything went like clockworks from the moment we booked with Vicki who even went out of her way to being parking cones to our home as the delivery was in a Saturday and the council don’t suspend parking on a Saturday.

As I’ve mentioned above the team were brilliant and I would really recommend them. A terrific family company. We will need them again in about a year for removal and storage next time and will go nowhere else.

Thank you so much again to Simon, Vicki and the guys"

Second floor flat to 3-bed house
 
Cost: £850
 

"It was a great experience working with Blackhall. They were one of the few companies I asked for a quote from to come round and assess the size of the job - and therefore one of the only quotes I trusted. The communication with the office as well as the actual movers was great - a friendly and efficient service, even when I had a lot of questions. One issue was the online portal, required for insurance purposes. Thankfully I was able to submit a spreadsheet instead which was much easier. I would highly recommend."

House move.
 
Cost: £822
 

"Blackhall Moving and Storage did an excellent job helping us pack up our one bedroom apartment.

Vicki, Simon and the rest of the crew were a pleasure to deal with on the day and got all our valuables safely to our new address hassle free.

After getting several quotes from other removal companies it was clear to see the Blackhall offered the most competitive pricing options that suited our needs.

Excellent family run business.

We moved from Corstorphine in the west of the city to Joppa in the east to be near the sea.
 
Cost: £1152
 

"From the beginning, the removal was carried out with professionalism and courtesy. But it was also a personal service, catering for our wishes at every step. The crew were friendly and cheerful, which helps to make a stressful business somehow easier. We would certainly recommend this service to others."

Moving from one flat to another win several large items including piano
 
Cost: £800
 

"Was very happy with the service received. Quote was reasonable and clearly explained.

Staff arrived promptly on moving day, had the flat emptied very quickly, dismantled beds etc, and also moved the piano without a scratch. Basically very little hassle on what is always a stressful day for people.

Would definitely use Blackhall again."

Whole office move, booked and completed within short time frame. Included IT equipment, handling, packing and pre-delivery of boxes.
 
Cost: £384
 

"Fantastic service from beginning to end. Quickly arranged for an estimator to come out and discuss the move ahead of time, prompt in delivery of quote thereafter. Excellent communication between all involved to arrange date and time of the move, arranging the delivery of boxes for us to pack ahead of time.
Arrived prompt on day of move, very friendly, professional and efficient. Continually ensuring all needs met for the move.
Would use this company again."

The move was from a basement flat to a house.

"Blackhall did leaflet drop and that's how I found them. They visited, gave me a quote and timeline, delivered boxes and arrived promptly and precisely on moving day. The move was quick and efficient. The team were friendly, helpful and just brilliant, nothing was a problem. We really appreciated the guys working that day. I cannot recommend them enough!"

Move from a 2nd floor 2 bed flat (no lift) to a house including full packing service.
 
Cost: £928
 

"Really impressed with Blackhall Moving & Storage from initial email correspondence to visit/quotation we were at ease with the friendly personal approach and confident in the experience the firm has.
We had to postpone/rearrange a couple of times and each time Blackhall were helpful and accommodating and it was done without fuss or cost to us.
On moving day the team arrived on time and efficiently packed and move all our items. We went to pick up the keys to our new place and returned to find the Blackhall van in the driveway ready to unload! Again this was done quickly and efficiently and with care to ensure that everything was placed in the correct locations.
The team of 3, lead by Simon, were friendly and courteous throughout and obviously took care with our possessions.
We unpacked over the weekend and the boxes/packing materials were removed on the Monday morning without any fuss (although we were free to hang onto the boxes for longer as required)
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Blackhall Moving and Storage to anyone"

Move from 4 bed family home to 2 bed cottage
 
Cost: £900
 

"Blackhall Moving & Storage made the whole process very easy for us. The quotation was easy, quick and competitive. The house visit by Simon happened when agreed and the written details were quickly supplied. Although we packed ourselves, Simon also came round to provide some advice and Vicki was able to organise delivery of additional boxes when requested.

The actual move out and in went very smoothly with the 2 guys wrapping the big items of furniture and then loading the packed boxes. They were both friendly, courteous and professional. Given the tight parking spaces and narrow roads, the actual maneuvering of the removal lorry was very skillful.

The unload went as smoothly as the load and even included help plumbing in our new washing machine that had moved with us.

All in all a very smooth and professional job with a great team."

We moved from a detached house to a detached farmhouse. Both had on street access but both on narrow roads. In addition to furniture we had numerous pieces of art and extensive clothing that was well packaged to ensure no damage. We brought forward the sale by a day to remove some stress so required storage overnight but this was no problem even though organised after the initial quote.

"We moved house in July and the service we received throughout was fantastic. The communication was prompt and the quote was competitive. After confirming the booking we made numerous changes but were easily accomodated. Being able to do everything online was also very helpful.

Simon and the team were well presented, on time and hard working. Most of all they ensured that everything was packed in one piece and arrived in one piece.

I'd be happy to recommend them to friends and family."

Blackhall removals completes my house move out and in on the same day. They were super punctual, professional and helpful.
 
Cost: £600
 

"Blackhall removals were professional, organised and flexible with every aspect of my removal. This made the move so easy and stress free. They accommodated a last minute change to my removal date without any fuss and dropped off requests for extra packaging same day. The removal team were super quick, friendly and nothing was too much bother even moving furniture round at the other end when it didn’t feel right. Highly recommended."
