Can anyone recommend a removals company?

Hi
Would anyone recommend a removals company, ideally someone who could pack up a house without the owners being there?
Thanks!

You can’t go wrong with Burke and Wills. I’ve never heard anyone complain about them.

If you go on Checkatrade I am sure you will find a reliable company. Look for good reviews and a local business. I have found my cleaner there, the people who installed our awning etc.. Anything I need I go to Checkatrade - they always try to go above and beyond as otherwise you can leave a negative review..

Gentleman & A Van get good press too.

A local family run business. Haven't used them but are our lovely neighbours.

Vaphillips.co.uk moved us three times and were excellent.

It has been mentioned here before so let me just second it: Burke and Wills. As my predecessor said: you can't go wrong with them. They are: professional, polite, always on time, and have incredible ethics. If you have a problem, they will sit down with you and work together until the solution is found. Highly, highly recommended! I have never heard a single word of complaint about them.

Another recommendation for Burke and Wills...truly head and shoulders above the rest!

Harradines. They are based in South London too. Brilliant service!

Hello
Based on the recommendations, I contacted Burke and Wills removal company and wanted to know if they take the entire payment 2 weeks before the move?
Some companies take only 50% beforehand so wanted to know your experiences. Thanks

Hi we used Burke and Wills in the end and they took full payment 2 weeks before the day of the move.
We were very happy with them too and the gave the best value from quotes
Best of Luck with it!
