Harpenden
Moving Guide
You moved my Mum out of the house she had lived in for over 60 years plus house clearance. Sensitivity from you for her feelings especially for fact she had to see things going that maybe she wanted to keep.
Sadly 18 months later she passed away and we used your company again. You made the experience easier for me. You were all great whether on the end of the phone or doing the manual work.
Thank you all x
