A bit of a challenge 5 bed home including 16 bookcases and 2000 books. Team arrived 8.30am prompt. Polite and well experienced. Done by 12.30 pm New address 1.15pm unloaded by 4.15pm

"We were delighted with the service. The three men were polite and helpful.
Two vans were used and everything was carefully wrapped and stored.
Ramps were used so there was throwing of stuff onto the vans. They worked well as a team. It was a new experience for us and we were anxious but they were methodical and well paced. We arrived at new address and they emptied vans in reverse order with the same professional manner."

Particular care was taken with two items of furniture as requested. E tra staff were used to ensure enhanced, risk minimisation care given. Items were appropriately protected Relocation was within 5 miles

"Pre move packing day by Kevin was good. Boxes clearly marked so made finding boxes post move was very easy.
Excellent care of two pieces of furniture carried out well, even negotiating very heavy item down narrow staircase.
Boxes delivered into appropriate rooms and neatly at destination -again, making the finding of contents easy.
Extra staff used to move difficult pieces of furniture.
Wardrobes well reconstructed post move by staff."

This the third time I have used Quicksilver and they did not disappoint.

"The price quoted was very thorough and excellent value for money. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful, the whole process very efficient. The fellas in the team doing the actual moving were excellent also, very friendly, extremely helpful, even disconnecting and reconnecting my washing machine. An excellent job all round. I would definitely recommend Quicksilver Movers to anyone!"

We moved home within Hexham and with changes in chain and circumstance could not secure our original removal company, we contacted QuickSilver at the last moment for their help with our move.

"Quicksilver came to our aid at the point in time in the chain when things were getting a little more stressful with dates, exchange and completion of our family home. We had previously booked a removal company that we had used on 3 other occasions yet due to date changes in the chain they could no longer accommodate us on our preferred dates. In panic mode, we reached out to Quicksilver as they had been recommended to us by our Estate Agent. With VERY short notice, we asked if they had availability and with some checking and changes Quicksilver confirmed they could fit us in. The admin was swift and organised, which we often find is a good sign of an efficient business when the initial experience is positive.

Geordie, Thomas, Petezy, Stephen, Graeme, were all superstars on the two removal days. They worked incredibly hard as one team, they were professional and respectful yet full of humour and added fun into what was a busy few days. It was evident that they had worked together for a long time as they worked seamlessly as one team to clear our old home and carefully place things into our new home. The team were also patient in waiting for confirmation of completion on the day (hit by a 24-hour global banking and IT meltdown).

Quicksilver were new to us but would now highly recommend them to others. IF we were (ever) to move again, we would have a tough decision on our hands ! With thanks to the team for their friendly, efficient and professional end to end service."

Moving fro Newcastle to Ellington

"Our move with Quicksilver got off to a great start as the van arrived nearly 30 minutes before schedule. Geordie and his team worked well and loaded all of our items in about three hours only stopping for a cuppa at my insistence. Through no fault of Quicksilver or us the move was stalled due to a crash in the banking system which meant that none of the three in the chain could complete. This went in for hours before the team made their way to our new home to wait it out. As it was 45 minutes away it turned out to be a great decision as we didn’t get the go ahead until 4.45 in the afternoon. The Quicksilver team then completed their task in about one hour, putting everything where I requested it. I could have asked more from them. They are a credit to your organisation. I have already recommended Quicksilver to a friend who is looking for a removal company. Thank you all so much for a job well done."

I''m writing to highly recommend Quicksilver for their exceptional services.

"We have had the pleasure of using their services and have been consistently impressed with their quality and professionalism.

One of the key reasons we choose Quicksilver is their unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. Tamsin, in particular, has gone above and beyond on every occasion to ensure that our needs are met promptly and efficiently. She is always polite, welcoming, and eager to provide support and assistance.

We have found that Quicksilver's services are of the highest caliber. They consistently deliver results that exceed our expectations and leave us confident that we have made the right choice.

Based on our overwhelmingly positive experiences, we would not hesitate to recommend Quicksilver to anyone in need of their services. We are certain that you will be just as impressed as we have been."

Full house move out and in on the same day, including garden furniture and getting a sofa down from the 1st floor via very tight corridors.

"The initial paperwork was professional, giving us confidence in the service.
The crew were absolutely fantastic. They were all very polite, happy and had great banter. They worked well together and worked very fast. Absolutely no damaged items at all.
My husband was nervous about the TV- this was packed by the movers beautifully in a very secure transport bag/case and resulted in no damage.
I was worried about getting the sofa bed down the flight of stairs. It was wrapped up, and brought down the stairs brilliantly- they made it look easier than when it was bought!

We had an issue with our neighbour (unrelated to the movers), and the crew handled this really well and were very understanding. It was very much appreciated.

The crew handled all items with care, whilst working with efficiency to get all the goods out and then into the new property.

We were very impressed. We will be recommending them, and will be using them for our future moves."

Moving from top floor 2 bedroom flat to 4 bedroom flat, split over 2 floors with no lift at either end. Included massive collection of CDs, vinyl and books.

"Fantastic experience from start to finish. Tony gave us a clear, very reasonable quote, Tamsin in the office was also very quick to reply and help us with any questions. On the day, couldn't have asked for better service - foreman Geordie and a lovely bunch of lads remained cheerful and friendly throughout, despite the move involving a massive amount of stairs with no lift at either end and a LOT of heavy boxes containing my huge music collection. Nothing was too much trouble. Brilliant."

Quicksilver emptied a large house for us including carefully wrapping some sentimentally valuable paintings. They then stored everything for a year. After that they delivered everything to our new home at the other end of England.

"Excellent. They were patient, careful and good to deal with. Thank you."

I moved to downsize, not too far away. I still had a lot to take to my new address.

"I felt the information was given too much by email. I would have preferred letters sent by post, as they are easier to read. The office staff were helpful when I panicked about my payment. The men who moved me were very good and helpful. I thought they did a excellent job for me at a very stressful time."

Moving from a 4 bedroom house to a top floor 2 bed flat (with 4 flights of stairs)

"Friendly, helpful experience to get a quote - someone visited and took the time to properly understand what we needed.

Wasn't the cheapest quote I received but they were more reassuring in understanding what we needed and explaining how they'd handle it. They also didn't spend half the time slagging off other firms, which some other people quoting did.

Excellent admin throughout - regular, friendly email contact from the office to make sure I had everything and to keep me updated

Both packing boxes and movers on the day were dead on time

Lovely bunch of 6 lads handling the move - obviously the amount of stairs was a challenge but they handled it all with a smile and a joke - I never heard a single negative thing the whole time. Nothing was too much trouble. Whole move was done much more quickly than I'd expected and was much less stressful than I'd feared thanks to the team.

Not the cheapest but well worth the extra for peace of mind and dealing with such a great bunch of people."

Geordie was the foreman - can't remember the other 5 lads' names but all were great

Full home removal from our old home to our new home.

"Our home move was made super easy and stress free with Quicksilver. The team were great, packing all of our items in the morning from dismantling beds to handling our fragile objects. Moved us in to our new home in the afternoon reassembling beds, mattresses, our sofa etc so our new home was fully liveable. The team were timely, very professional and the service as a whole was seamless. Quicksilver provided us with all the boxes we needed for the move including hanging boxes for clothing which was very convenient. Brilliant experience!"
