The summer months are our busiest time for home removals. Those people who put their houses on the market in the Spring have sold, gone through the necessary legal process and are now getting ready for a fresh start in their new property. Hopefully the removal firm was booked weeks ago (don’t wait until you

Getting those keys and knowing its yours to shape and decorate as you decide and that it’s an asset you will one day own outright, is an exhilarating feeling – and definitely the reason so many champagne corks are popped on

A few weeks ago we were approached by a fantastic charity called Homeless Hampers. A non-profit making organisation which has been running for four years, they rely solely on donations and self-funding to do

Moving house can be a stressful time, there’s no doubt about it. That’s why it repeatedly makes the list of ‘the most stressful life events you can go through’ – picking and securing the house of your dreams, and ensuring your home is someone else’s first choice can put the pressure on a bit! But
read moreFriendly helpful staff that made it easy for us to store our goods at their Harrogate premises. The facilities were very clean and secure and we had easy access at all times.
The whole process is well run. Collection, storage and forwarding to another address, all went very well indeed. The lady at the helm, and her assistants are so friendly and helpful. The guys on the trucks are very competent and friendly people too. It is a well run operation, from start to finish.
I would certainly recommend this company to others and also would use them again should we move again. Spot on! That is the best way to describe them.
Thank you McCarthy's.
