Removal from a 3 bedroom semi-detached house to a 3 bedroom detached bungalow, both in the Newcastle upon Tyne area.
 
Cost: £480
 

"Quicksilver were recommended to us by a relative who had used them a few times for both personal and business moves.
From the very first call with Tamsin, we found her to be very friendly, understanding and pleasant to deal with. Due to COVID, she sent us a form to complete regarding our belongings to be moved.
The quotation we received was reasonable and competitive compared to other quotes received.
We packed ourselves using our own boxes (many came from a friend who had also recently moved house), but Quicksilver offered to supply any extra boxes we might need.
On removal day Lewis and Liam were expected at 8.30am, but arrived at 8.00am and got straight on with the job. They walked through the house to assess what was to be loaded and proceeded to load the removal van in the most efficient way. They hardly stopped and were finished loading before 1.00pm. They requested another vehicle to load the garden furniture and planters and George came along with that.
At the bungalow our furniture was offloaded into the required rooms quickly and efficiently.
Several times I asked if I could help carry something, but was told thank you, but it was not necessary.
We were absolutely delighted with the whole team and the way our move was handled and not only would we have no hesitation in recommending Quicksilver to anybody planning on moving, but we have already recommended them to two different friends who are soon to be moving home.
A big thank you to the whole team for an efficient and professional service."

Big move from south to the north of England. A very large quantity of possessions to be moved, includes contents of garage, garden and craft supplies.
 
Cost: £8000
 

"I cannot recommend Quicksilver more highly. They have all gone over,above and beyond their job titles. From the office staff to the men loading and unloading us into our new house. They were so professional, polite, accommodating and nothing was a bother. They took very good care of our possessions and always had a smile. The schedule went to plan, they were on time with everything and they kept me informed every step of the way what would happen. The men all worked so hard and well as a team and I think you should be so proud to have such a hardworking workforce.
I would definitely recommend Quicksilver as a removal company."

Customer Review
 
Move out of large six bedroom house to smaller traditional four bedroom house required selection of furniture to fit smaller scale and removal to storage of a number of items, later transported to another holiday house. The removal team worked hard and were practical and helpful in all they did at the time of the move. The stored items were later taken out and delivered again with practical ‘can do’ attitudes and generally helpful and careful. Storage costs accumulated more than we wished for but this was not down to the company, just circumstances arising from the Covid pandemic.
 
Cost: £2000
 

"The no answers above may well be that I have forgotten or paid no attention at the time!
The service was clear and communication with the firm was easy and effective.
The liaison with the firm went through one lady which made it easy to deal with. The removal staff were excellent on both occasions. The removal staff were
prompt, well prepared, courteous and very effective. They were careful and attentive to the needs and nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them, they were overall excellent."

This was a move from a 2 bed bungalow to a 2 bed bungalow.
 
Cost: £528
 

"Silverlink moved my elderly parents last Friday & from the minute they arrived, Billy & Lewis went out of their way to explain exactly what would happen & how the day would pan out. They were so friendly & helpful, as well as being extremely efficient & careful with my parents belongings. They were very respectful when my dad was asking questions - nothing was a problem to them. We all felt that they provided an exceptional service, so if you are planning a house move, these lads come highly recommended. Thanks again to them for making the day go so calmly & smoothly!"

Removal of stored furniture into a new home, along with moving more items from our current home to the new one.
 
Cost: £1296
 

"Our move was a two fold experience with Quicksilver. But both involved moving to an adjacent property with most of our belongings being stored on the 1st trip & the second in reverse. That is having our belongings back from storage into the new home, along with moving some more furniture from our current house to the new one on the same day. Our belongings had to be stored for a much longer period due to the Lockdown but very delighted to see no damages during this time. The Quicksilver Team were very efficient in removing and placing everything to the correct rooms. They were well co-ordinated on both visits and readily moved things around if needed to afterwards.
The price was the same both times - £1296.00 for each removal. Thinking over the costs involved, the 2nd move should perhaps be lower, as it actually took less than half the time of the 1st move. But due to the Lockdown, no one was actually able to visit us to provide a considered quotation for the work involved. However, all their staff members are to be commended for their careful handling of everything on the days.
Special thanks also to Julie Heaton, in Sales Support, who helped us In many a stressful time, and reassured us with her calm and helpful manner.
We would certainly recommend Quicksilver to our family and friends. Thanks for being good “Movers“."
 
 
Team:
We remember Rob, Liam, Mitch, phil, Kev were part of an overall great team.

Contents of a large house and gardening equipment from one house to another 12 miles apart. Masses of books and pictures. On the day there had to be financial transactions of both buying and selling which delayed delivery until 4pm. On the last Friday of the month which is always the most difficult day.
 
Cost: £1400
 

"I received clear and courteous treatment from start to finish. Clear instructions and communications about timing. Patience when things didn’t go entirely to plan.
The weather was poor - wet and muddy - which made matters difficult but care was taken in keeping carpets clean. Delivery into nominated rooms largely observed. Much easier overall than I had feared and better than I hoped."

House move

"Can't fault the removal guys they were fantastic and made a stressful day go extremely smoothly.They were professional throughout.

I was moving into a new build on a very muddy building site and had new light coloured carpets without asking they arranged themselves so 2 guys were inside with shoes off and the others were outside. I was so appreciative of this and can't thank them enough."
