The hippo bag
Review of Hippo Bag by RecyclingFanatic

Advantages: Simple to use
Disadvantages: None

I've had a hippo bag collected and felt that it warrants a good review. I bought my bag from Wickes and filled it with wood scraps and broken furniture. It has been collected this morning and I never even heard the lorry take it away. I booked my collection online on Thursday of last week and have to say that even the booking system is simple to use. A leaflet in Wickes prompted me to use the service which said if I book in my bag for collection ... Read review

Pickfords Edinburgh
Review of Allied Pickfords by ccsa

Advantages: local company
Disadvantages: no control of the team that shows up.

I chose Pickfords because of their size and their apparent reputation for taking care of their clients goods. However, this move by far was the worst move ever. They didn't cover the carpets as agreed as part of their standard service. They didn't do what they said they were going to do with regard to packing and unpacking each day for 4 days. The teamleader didn't even turn up with his tool box. We were only moving 5 minutes away from our last home ...
...my son's cot in pieces on the floor and my other son's cot put together wrong. Lastly, the son of the t/l left his mob # on our aupair's bed for her to call him after she turned down his first request to get together. This by far, is the most unprofessional organization I have dealt with. They've ruined things and left mud on several rugs. I wouldn't use them again if they paid me! It's simply isn't worth the aggravation. We paid for full service ... Read review

Invitation to report your experiences
Review of Removal Group, Worldwide Removal Company by Janenevis

Advantages: None, price is certainly NOT everything
Disadvantages: Incompetence, a cowboy outfit and an arrogance that they will not be caught

...already contacted me concerning the Removal Group, The Removal Group it seems from your comments is particularly incompetent at handling INTERNATIONAL removals, Thank you for your initial comments. However we really need more detailed reports of your experiences. I am genuinely surprised to read that ANYONE has had a good experience with this group and I wonder if these 'reviews' are not written by someone with connections to this company. I may ...
...game playing of the Removal Group and its employees.. No tracking of our container, paperwork not forwarded to customs or the container trnasporter, no contact or communications with their so called Agents in the Caribbean, They did not even know WHERE our container was at any time. They LIED to us saying the container would arrive in the next couple of days, however WE tracked the container to its actual location at that time which was sitting ... Read review

Picking a Removal Company
Review of Britannia Movers International by marcb

Advantages: Price reasonable. Reputable company
Disadvantages: Took some shortcuts. Didn't put stuff where we wanted

...at included Square Moves, Ants, Britannia and local firm. Square moves were the most expensive although previous moves and other friends experience indicated that they were very good. In the end, we went for Ants, who were in the middle for price. We found that the packing was OK, except that they only used cardboard for pictures, mirrors, etc not bubble wrap. Glasses were wrapped in paper and stored in boxes. We found they also took shortcuts when ...
...the move itself, we did suffer minor damage to the climbing frames and the odd dent in bed, but nothing serious. My main gripe was that they obviously had enough by late afternoon and just seemed to dump boxes anywhere, just to get unloaded. Other things to be considered when selecting removal companies are: * Does your estate agent offer a cheap rate with a particular company. * Many removal companies offer a discount card that can be used when ...
