The guys obviously enjoy their job, taking great care and looking unhurried, but somehow managing it all with speed. Took all our stress away. Fantastic.

Just a message concerning our removals on the 4th and 5th December.
Our crew-Ian Sadler, Dave Talbot, Bradley Leech and Will went out of their way to make sure our move went as smoothly as possible.
They had awful weather, a difficult drive over The Peak District and still were obliging and cheerful whilst moving our belongings.
Great team!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ballard’s removed all of our furniture from our house into their storage facility with great professionalism and a friendly service. Although we thought it would be with them for a few weeks due to several mishaps our chattels remained with them for 6 months. We eventually moved onto our new property this week and Ballard’s arrived spot on time as arranged and very carefully unloaded our 4 containers into the appropriate rooms in our bungalow. This they did again professionally, efficiently and with a friendly smile. We have since unpacked and everything was as we left it, not one breakage. Thank you so much for all your help. We would 100% recommend Ballard’s for all your removals and storage.
