30m^3 from London to France

 
 
   Customer Review

Very polite at both ends of the move. All of our belongings seem to have survived the journey (a little warping of a couple of wooden items, but that might be simply because of the change in climate). Our belongings were stored without complaint (just with extra payment!) for as long as we needed even though we were unsure of the length of time as we were house-hunting. Hints were made that our belongings could be delivered more promptly than they actually were, but the delay was actually not too terrible. Good experience all round.

Having used Matthew James before to move house, I didn''t consider any other removal company when we ''upped sticks'' once again recently.

 
 
   Customer Review

Great decision, the whole team, from my first call to the last empty box collection were thorough, prompt, courteous, efficient, cheerful and professional throughout. On my request when booking, the team leader from my first move was looked up and booked once again. Excellent, thank you.

I cannot in truth remember answers to all previous questions re liability etc, but could not leave blank. I answered yes because you were so thorough, professional, courteous, efficient, cheerful throughout that I can't imagine anything was missed.

Part load from Spain to Scotlland. Once in October last year and again in February this year 2016. Our wine collection had to come and a walking stick from The Walk to Santiago de Compostela! The cat went separately.

 
 
   Customer Review

I have used Matthew James twice now. The first contact being with the Office in the UK. Jayde and her colleagues are all so helpful. Everything was extremely efficient. Dates and times made by email or telephone. Packers were very good and nothing was damaged or broken. Delivery both times went well and the men placed cartons etc., where I wanted them. All in all, I would recommend Matthew James with confidence.

This was a move from southern Spain to the north of England. Andy Brien and Lito in Spain were superb. Andy made me feel so confident that all would go well and nothing was too much trouble. They worked tirelessly to pack furniture and take it and boxes from the ninth floor. Delivery back in the UK was quick and efficient and the guys were friendly and helpful. A thoroughly professional service. Once Andy had been to do the preliminary check I had no thoughts of getting any more quotes, even though the quote followed a few days later Thanks

After spending our working life overseas we were ready to retire. A stressful time.We had items from our home in Qatar to be sent to our home in London and also to our home in Spain.Matthew James organised an agent to pack our shipment in Qatar to be sent to the UK with certains items marked ''Spain''. The shipment arrived and certain items were packed in London to join the rest of the shipment to be forwarded to Spain.Two weeks later this arrived at our apartment in Spain. All sorted..everything in the right place and all in excellent condition.I might add all arranged by email..fantastic

 
 
   Customer Review

We were in Qatar and needed to move some of our household goods to London and some to Spain.We got three quotes but Matthew James were the only ones who had a comprehensive plan about getting our part shipment to Spain. They organised a removal company in Qatar to pack the shipment and arrange all the documents needed for exporting.It was sent groupage as we didn''t need to move our whole household.We had no time schedule as long as things arrived eventually. The thing that impressed me the most was that my emails were answered mostly within the hour and I did have lots of questions...all the documents were sent via email and all payments on the net. This was great for us. When you are dealing with a company from a distance its so reassuring when you know someone can be contacted and will reply straight away. It makes it less stressful and gives you time to sort out the hundreds of other things you have to do when you leave a country. The end result....our shipment arrived in London. This was unpacked and some things from our house here were packed up to join the items intended for Spain. We were notified when the shipment would arrive at the depot in Spain so we arranged flights to be there to receive it all. All items received in Spain...every single member of the teams involved were outstanding...including the guys in Qatar.

We had already spoken to Jill Finch to say how pleased we were with the crew who moved us on the 28th.

 
 
   Customer Review

The only name we caught was Stuart and he and the team were the best we have ever had and we have made a career out of moving house. Politeness, consideration for our property and although our new place is quite rundown and ready for renovation these guys treated it like their own. Value for money and great service. Be proud of your staff Great service good price can''t fault this company and their staff. John

Moving from a luxury apartment in Paris to a luxury home in London

 
 
   Customer Review

Staff were very careful with all my employer''s belongings and made sure any pre existing damage to property was properly documented and brought to my attention. The nature of this move meant last minute changes to the brief, adding items to be transported. Despite some initial disappointment, staff on the ground managed to finish within the allocated time and to a very high standard. I was particularly impressed with the way only two men managed to lift a baby grand piano and take it downstairs using sheer force. Even when Matt and Matthew interjected during heavy lifting, they never used inappropriate language, which I thought was a credit to their professionalism.

   Customer Review

First time using a removal firm and booked Matthew James for my mother''s move because of excellent reviews and references. They were superb from start to finish - all staff were so friendly and helpful, both in UK & Spain. And everything was packed so well. Absolutely no complaints - I wouldn''t hesitate to use them again and would certainly recommend them.
