Moved a 3-mile distance from existing home - nothing particularly interesting only household/garden items to transport.

"Very satisfied with the overall experience - would recommend; in fact have done already to a colleague who's moving shortly."

Not a long distance move but at very short notice!

"A friendly and professional service throughout. The exchange of contracts was only achieved at the very last minute and Chapmans staff were understanding and reassuring throughout what was a very stressful time for us.

On the day, a very hot day, the movers worked quickly but carefully. There were no losses, no breakages or damage of any kind."

Impressed by the man who came to do the assessment, really warm and friendly and so professional. . V impressed by the two who came to pack on the first day. They were quiet and calm etc and efficient - really really great all round. 5 stars there. Really helped lift the stress. They said the house was much more empty than they expected so they were pleased.

"Less impressed on the move day. Esp the two extra removal people. The remaining stuff on day two was shoved in boxes lots of previous stuff not wrapped and came out battered. Some bits of glass etc. One seemed put out- and was barely pulling his weight. When he asked which room he sighed. I felt bad when I said upstairs, I reflected on how we paid best part of 2.5 K for your service. We were delayed but we paid for absolutely everything inc cover for a delay . It was the hottest day of the year. That was unfortunate.But hard on everyone, including us.

They refused to move sofa to kitchen as said it wouldn’t fits we suggested taking off the wrapping as we had managed and knew it would but they said no. We did it ourseves after they’d gone. I feel that we paid for a service we just didn’t get there! The bed was reassembled in part but screws lose, draws not in etc. I think they’d had enough, the day was getting on and it was hot.

Icing on cake and the most memorable was us getting into our brand new house and one of the lads heading straight for our loo and stinking the house out. Needs must and all that but not cool.

All I’m 5/10
Early on v impressed - but went downhill a bit.
Was incredibly expensive by comparison."

I moved from one house to another house about a mile away

"I moved house and booked Chapmans who advised to move over 2 days. I thought it could be done in 1 day but I was really pleased it was over 2 as it made the process much easier.
The 2 men were very polite, helpful and respectful of both me and my property. They were very professional and very helpful both days

Before the move a gentleman came to the house to assess what needed moving, he was very professional,friendly and helpful and gave me all the information I needed. I also called the company a couple of times and the office staff I spoke to were excellent."

Customer Review
 
Move locally from bungalow to 4 bed house. Included 1400 books, which were not to be unpacked as this is a short term move, and could be stored in garage at new property. New property included 180degree stairs. Previous 2 houses had been 4 bedroom, so quite a lot of furniture, some of which did not go into this property, but into the ''garage''

"People were prompt, fiendly and hard working.
The surveyor had said possibly into 3 days, and, though 2 days were planned for by the removers, a few items were left until the 3rd day. Thius made the last day a bit rushed.
However, everything arrived safely."

Moving from a two bedroom to a three bedroom house.

"My mum used this company about ten years ago for her move so we thought we'd use them too. It was great service from start ro finish, very efficient workers who were happy to advise throughout the move with aspects (i.e. Queries we had about connecting and disconnecting appliances). The cost was a little expensive but for the quality of service it was more than acceptable.We will definitely be recommending them."

A complicated removal and house clearance involving both local and long distance multi drop locations.

" From the outset Chapmans were helpful and highly professional. They were highly competitive on price and always exhibited a 'can do' approach. I was totally impressed with their capabilities and
performance."

The move took place over two days, I had around 50 boxes, plus furniture and contents of the shed and garden. I was packed up incredibly quickly the first day by the team, including dismantling bed, a high sleeper bed and desk, and wardrobes. The second day the team unpacked and rebuilt everything where we wanted it. All of the team from start to finish were great, friendly, polite, respectful and worked quickly.

"From start to finish, all of the team were friendly, polite, respectful and worked quickly. I had a lot of stuff to move but the big team made light work of it, I was amazed at the speed they worked. Care and respect was taken with my property and belongings. The after sales care was just as good.I’d highly recommend Chapmans."

Moved elderly and disabled parent from a large house to a smaller bungalow also moved us shortly afterwards from a large house to a smaller bungalow. Helped dismantle and rebuild furniture over a weekend, helped transport items to different addresses - helped with packing and materials. Excellent all round

"We have used Chapmans 3 times in two years to move elderly relatives and for our own complicated move. Their communication, flexibility and value for money is excellent. They take a personal interest in each job and are kindly, patient and very professional. Excellent quality business.

Latest move involved dismantling and rebuilding furniture in different locations over a weekend as well as co-ordination of the main move from a large 4 bed home to a smaller bungalow.

Helped with packing too.

Always contactable - team shared their knowledge with each other so everyone was in the loop excellent service.

Also were very flexible with numerous dates and delays ."

It wasn''t a simple move, as the dates kept changing. Chapmans were very patient & helpful.

"I was very happy with the arrangements. The bulk of the items were loaded the previous day, the remainder on the moving day. The crew had to hang around for a long time, waiting for the banks to send money over with the extra wait over lunchtime."

Moved at end of March. Move was only a few treats away by a very professional service.

"The removers came the day before the move which proved very advantageous to us. They filled the van which meant on the actual day of move were in new property by 11am. This allowed early access for our buyers.
The team were extremely professional and very friendly. So at a stressful time things were made much easier and all flowed well."

The move involved packing of all domestic and business assets - quite a complex operation, involving high value antiques, water colours & silver - heavy garden features - victorian stone ware and mature plants - plus personal items and clothing. The items were packed from the loft, 2 floors and offices, loaded, shipped 200miles and unloaded at 2 addresses

"Our initial removal was frustrated by our intended Buyer being unable to proceed plus, the owner of the initial property we intended to buy removing the property from the market. Chapmans were extremely co-operative and patient with our issues.

The actual phases of the eventual removal proceeded very smoothly and, despite traffic issues on the M42 the team still completed the delivery to address 2 as promised.

The unloading phase proceeded very smoothly without us feeling under pressure, and after completion, whilst having a very large number of boxes to eventually unpack, we felt comfortable that the unloading team had no intention of leaving until we were settled and they could no longer be of assistance."

Moved from a terrace to a semi detached bungalow

"One small thing, salesman said I could keep portable wardrobes, but removal men said opposite, but they did ensure portable wardrobes were emptied and put in agreed places.
It was a very hot day for my move, they all worked extremely hard in the excessive heat."

We moved from a detached house to a new build 100 miles away where they are still building so builders on site We had lots of garden furniture and plants in pots

"We moved over 2 days, the first day was loading everything on to the lorry and the next day it was to meet us at our new home 100 miles away
The 3 boys who worked both days were polite and helpful, they dismantled huge wardrobes and beds and then assembled back the next day
They checked all the furniture and boxes were where we wanted them
I cannot fault them"

Moving 7 heavy items of furniture from my sitting room to other rooms in my flat so I could lay a new floor and redecorate then putting the back after the work was finished.

"Nothing was too much trouble for the people i spoke to at Chapmans on the phone or the 2 men that came to move the furniture,2 different men came a week later to put the furniture back they were also helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them,they put everything back just as my wife wanted it.They were all excellent and I would not hesitate to use them again.

A relatively simple move from a 3 bedroom terraced house to another.

"A simple move was done quite poorly. On Chapman's request, we agreed to move over two days and arranged things accordingly. The plan was to pack and partially load a wagon on day 1, then return and finish packing/loading on Day 2. We arranged everything in line with this.

On day 1, a single person arrived in a car. Without informing us, the plan had been changed to pack only on account of there "being no wagon available". We'd paid extra to have our son in nursery for an additional day because we were working to our agreement, so that's £70 wasted.

The day 1 packing was slow and ended prematurely when he ran out of boxes. We were assured everything would be fine on Day 2.

On Day 2, they took 45 minutes to get the van in to our non-descript terraced street. In that time, all three people stayed with the wagon when one could have made a start on making up for lost time. It was nearly 10am before the first boxes went on to the wagon, with a 1pm deadline to vacate.

Despite that, the pace remained pedestrian and eventually a manager was called in to assist. This slack approach meant we had to clean the property around removers, which is difficult if not futile. We got out with 8 minutes to spare, but with no small amount of unneccessary stress.

The move in was similarly rushed, with removers visibily agitated at the work they had to do. Work as rushed and damage caused to walls and furniture. I ended up fitting furniture together, despite having paid a premium for Chapmans to do just that.

Eventually, they left and we set about opening boxes. We were completely disappointed to see the standard of packing. Our belongings were bent to fit boxes, boxes overloaded so things broke, and heavy items put on top of delicate things like house plants. It was a complete lack of thought or care.

Worst of all, though, is the attitude received from the manager when we raised this with them. They somehow deduced it was just a single box of things poorly packed despite documentary proof being supplied. Rather than accept the joib went badly, they chose to argue. We have abandoned a claim for damage to our furniture because, frankly, we just want to see the end of Champan's from our lives.

Since moving, we've been asked for recommendations a number of times. Each time the answer has been the same: Don't use Chapman's.
