A basic house move from Leicestershire to Lincoln. I''m not entirely sure of the removal costs, however, I believe it was around £1,200

"I am delighted with the service received from start to finish.

Mr Southerington came around promptly to assess our house contents and the removal quote was sent a couple of days later.
Our initial removal date had to be pushed back which all seemed to be taken in stride by Southeringtons.

They arrived the day before removal date and packed 95% of our belongings leaving only the essentials for the date of completion. This service alone took most of the stress out of moving home.
The guys were prompt, very polite, worked carefully and with efficency collecting what we had packed and also carefully packing things we had missed. There were issues with completion in our new house, however, this had nothing to do with Southeringtons. (If they offer an extra day to complete owing to poor Solicitors Advice then take it. Southeringtons were far better and knowledgeable than the Conveyancing Firm we engaged).

You pay a bit more for their service than other Removal Firms, however, they were second to none and fully worth every penny. If you can afford it then Southeringtons are brilliant. Thank you.
"
 
 
Team:
Sorry its been 4 months since completion and I've forgotten

The removal men from Southeringtons arrived and immediately set about loading up their van;all without any fuss.

" They drove straight to our new home and emptied all our belongings, putting everything where we requested.Nothing was too much trouble and we can only describe the service we received as absolutely `spot on`. We would not hesitate to recommend Southeringtons to anyone looking to move house.In fact we have done so already."

Removal data wasn''t known until very close to the move.

"Setting a moving date in the property chain was very difficult. Southeringtons were far more accommodating than they really needed to be, given all the changes.

The removals process was faultless - not a scratch or mark on any surface in the old or new house. The removals teams couldn't have been more helpful and professional."

First move after nearly 20 years.

"Brilliant movers. Did an excellent job. Would recommend to anyone. Nothing phased them even when faced with what seemed like a million boxes. Very polite and helpful. Made a stressful day a lot easier."

Moving from a Victorian terrace to Georgian terrace, meaning tight stairs and small doors. Pre-load the day before, a lot of care taken with my items.

"I cannot recommend Southerington's enough, lots of communication and explanation from start to finish.

Team were friendly and on time.

No room for improvement at all, they made a stressful process very very easy."

We moved from our rental house in Melton Mowbray to our new home in Herefordshire.

"We have moved house twice in 6 months due to renting and waiting to purchase a property. Before this we have had 3 other house moves over the years.

From start to finish the service we received was exceptional, The quote as very competitive and gave me confidence that what was offered would be delivered.

The team turned up on time and were very polite and professional in their appearance. During the course of our 4 day move they were exceptionally helpful and nothing seemed to much trouble.


Thank you to all the team for making our house move so easy from start to finish. I would highly recommend Southerington."

Jason and Phil were the main 2 and 3 others turned up but afraid I didn’t get their names.

Customer Review
 
We moved from one 5 bedroom house to a slightly smaller 5 bed. we had lots of Asian furniture and art as well as a pool table.

"From the first telephone call to the last contact with southeringtons we expirenced an exceptionally high standard of service. Mr John southeringtons immediately gave me such confidence with his punctuality, smart dress and clear professional explanation of everything we needed to know.

Unfortunately for us, our move was fraught with difficulties, none to do with Southeringtons. It's times like this that you are so glad you have chosen a Professional company. We found Mr Paul Southerington professional, courteous, kind and as accommodating as he could be with our constantly changing move date.

We have had many international moves and although this was a domestic one, the team of men that packed us surpassed all of our expectations.
They were professional, courteous, efficient, careful with our possessions and very fast. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt that they enjoyed their work and did everything to a very high standard. I would definitely recommend Southeringtons. They are outstanding."

Moving contents of a 3 bedroomed semi from Melton Mowbray to the Hull area. Loaded most items the day before the move.

"We asked W Southerington's & Sons Ltd to quote us for moving from Melton Mowbray up to Hull in July. Their quote was competitive and they dropped off some boxes near to the start date. The team arrived to load most of our things the day before the actual move. The loading team were brilliant even packing a few things we hadn't had chance to pack. The next morning they returned for the remaining few items and drove all our stuff up to Hull. We got the keys to the new house just after noon and the lorry was unloaded by 3pm. A great all round experience from a professional moving company. We would highly recommend W Southerington & Sons as a moving company."
 
 
Team:
Everyone we spoke to was polite & professional.

Southington''s moved us from Melton Mowbray to Blyth in Northumberland.

"The team were very helpful and nothing was too much for them. They were very professional moving us from storage and two houses in Melton Mowbray. They arrived on time unloaded and placed everything exactly as requested. Nothing was too much and we would recommend them. A very professional removals service."

We moved from Rutland to York in December 2020. We had some heavy plant containers which were transported safely and efficiently.

"We were very impressed with the service from initial visit to on time delivery.
We have no hesitation in recommending Southerington's.
The removal experience was excellent starting with the initial visit where we felt very comfortable with the personal attention given by Mr Southerington. His vast experience in the removal business encouraged us to use his company."

Can't recall but all were excellent

3 bed house to another 3 bed house in the same town.

"Straightfoward move. No bells/whistles, but they were punctual and worked quickly. Some slight damage to the storage bags which they didn't inform us about, but nothing major. Receptionist was quite abrupt on several occasions and did not explain things clearly, especially when it was our first house move whilst in a chain. Had to read the contract very carefully to understand all the limitations and costs."

The move was perfect in every aspect. Most of our belongings, including garden furniture and plants, were collected the day before completion which left only our basic chattels to travel with us the following day. The main load was delivered the day after which suited us perfectly, allowing us to clean through our new property overnight.

"The move went extremely smoothly over the three days. All the staff were professional in everything they did,including the packing and labelling of fragile items. They went out of their way to be helpful and cooperative and they made the whole experience less stressful for their clients."
 
 
Team:
We didn't take names but all of Southeringtons staff were brilliant.
