My move went smoothly thanks to the help of the gentleman. There were no significant challenges in the moving process.
 

"The gentleman who came were very hardworking and professional.

They were also friendly and cheerful which helped in the stressful activity of moving house.

The young man on his first day also worked very hard.

Thank you!"

It was very challenging as we live on a slope with steps to the front door.

Never mind how hot it was.
 

"The whole team were brilliant. The move couldn't have gone any better.

A big thank you to them all."

Hampshire to Norfolk.

Video tour first to evaluate need. Quotes arranged and for a recommended company seemed reasonable.

We had a lot of things to move!
 

"Stephen and Lee were very helpful, relaxed but very efficient, good natured and patient with our needs."

The removal company turned up as arranged on the day before the move, they loaded furniture items not required until the following moving day. They worked quickly nonstop.

The following moving day all furniture and packed boxes were loaded transported to our new residence.

We had a lot to move, they checked on items to be left at the old property.
 

"A well organised group of movers. I had used them previously and they were recommended by other persons."

Customer Review
 
We moved from a four bedroom old house into a rental on a country estate. The access at the rental was not easy.

The company also took our heavy piano to our next door neighbours at no extra charge.

The plan of moving changed several times.
 

"We thought the company were brilliant.

Chris explained everything so thoroughly, the admin staff accommodated every change very well and even offered the free piano move.

When the rental ended up being in a country estate, Chris got someone to come straight round and negotiate access with the owner. I can't remember her name but he was knowledgeable and polite.

The four "movers out" and Lee and Tony who moved in did brilliantly in very hot weather.
Always polite and considerate.

Lee also made some really good suggestions about the next move in 6 months. We will be using Hadley & Ottaway again - if they'll have us!"

Customer Review
 
A long distance move with one of the owners dealing with cancer treatment.

Very early start to packing up and delivery days
 

"Possibly undermanned? 4 rather than three men delivering would have been less exhausting for us.

That said workers who we felt comfortable with and a good foreman."

A very steep hill to park the lorry on for loading and then a long drive to reverse up to unload.
 

"The team on the day of loading and unloading were fantastic. I honestly can't think of any way of improving the experience of the move.

The administration was all timely and efficient and gave great peace of mind."

Although only a local move this was the first time in over 40 years we had moved so we were somewhat apprehensive.

Lee, Tom and Luke were excellent, going above and beyond to make the experience as painless as possible.

Thank you to them and the Hadley and Ottaway team.
 

"We are hoping this will be our forever home, but if we ever need to move again we would not hesitate to use Hadley and Ottaway again.

Thank you!"

Packing and moving from two bed semi detached to 4 bed detached.

We the owners had a mix of bulky furniture computer hardware and fragile items. Also had to empty a garden shed.

We moved on the 6th hottest day in UK history.
 

"We were incredibly impressed by the high standards of work and professionalism shown by the Hadley and Ottaway team.

There was uncertainty about our exchange date and Hadley and Ottaway were exceptionally understanding and flexible!

The weather made the move particularly challenging but the team were exceptional. We can't commend them enough. They showed great care towards us and our belongings.

Will recommend."

Move into store, then 7 months later into a home 184 miles away. Awkward access, managed extremely well.
 

"Fabulous service from start to finish. Great customer support on the phone. Easy monthly invoicing by email.

Removal men all delightful, helpful, kind gentlemen.
They were clean, efficient and hard working. Valuable items packed with great care"

The move was from a six bedroom to a four bedroom house and a distance of just half a mile and involved two large vehicles.

The challenge was to bring largish heavy furniture from a 3rd floor and to transport a huge number of garden pots and plants.
 

"The crew arrived promptly were very courteous and respected our property and the items being moved.

They wrapped items with extreme care and nothing that we have unpacked was damaged.

Our move was completed ahead of schedule.

We are extremely pleased with Hadley and Ottaway and would highly recommend the firm."

2 days packing and 1 unloading.

I was shocked to find that they sleep in the lorries as was not made aware although did not bother us and meant timelines were flexible.
 

"Steve and the team were courteous, extremely hardworking and motivated.

Nothing was a problem to them and they made things seem easy despite temperatures reaching 30 to 39 degrees.

I was very worried about their lack of hats in this weather which, as a health and safety consultant, is something I would expect such an amazing company to provide their staff."

Team also had to collect fridge freezer from an alternate address and negotiate our steep driveway at our new property. The extra work was appreciated.
 

"The move was made over two days, including two vans and five staff, as shown plus Terry.

All were polite, superhelpful, respectful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble.

They worked very hard in hot weather and for long hours. Highly recommended.

Also want to thank Darren, Kate, Sian and Anna for exceptional service.

Second time we have used Hadley and Ottaway"
