Removals if Moving to Kirsktall
McCarthy’s removals has high expertise in the Kirkstall area due its proximity to the McCarthy’s headquarters on Meanwood Road in Leeds. The McCarthy’s reputation in the local area and membership of the British Association of Removers makes us a popular choice for Kirkstall removals. Being local to the Kirsktall area, McCarthy’s are also a popular choice for storage, shredding and archiving services in the area.
McCartheys were there to take much of the stress out of what was a very difficult time for myself and my family.All the staff were patient and understanding of our dilemma and did all they could to help.
The storage facilities were safe and very secure with easy access .
All in all a painless experience.
Would highly recommend.
Really friendly and helpful customer service and explained everything clearly. Easy to reserve and new facility in York seems well secured and easy to access, with handy equipment to use (particularly with extended hours - at additional cost). Only minor comment for improvement during these times would be to have sanitise stations near the keypads as these are touch points for everyone using the facility.
Really good service and nice units. Easy access, great location, nothing to fault
