House Move

The Hoults staff turned up promptly on the morning of our move from our home to take our possessions into storage. They took steps to protect our property from any damage and worked extremely quickly and efficiently. They liaised constantly with us to ensure they complied with how we wanted things stored. Their staff were pleasant and courteous at all times.

10/10 communication at all times

10/10 communication at all times. I had full confidence in Megan managing our international move. She was professional, kind and efficient in all aspects. I hope I never move internationally again, but if I do I would look to Hoults to help navigate the experience.

Excellent service and communication…

Excellent service and communication from start to finish.
Packing service completed by 3 excellent staff, polite and professional.
Removal completed the following day by 4 staff, (2 from the previous day). Lead man, Phil was amazing, went the extra mile to get an extra large sofa in! All staff worked extremely hard both days, well worth the cost for a very professional service. Highly recommended.

Joe the Hoult a removal man


Joe was the great guy who moved me from London to northumberland in snowy weather conditions.
He was extremely experienced, managed the local packers in London and then the 2 local unpacked in northumberland. Everything was clearly labelled, carefully packed into the van with great skill but mostly maneuvered the van on arrival in icy snow y conditions, laid down floor coverings and organised everything perfectly. Without him things may not have run so smoothly. Hoults are lucky to have him

The team were brilliant.

The team were brilliant.
From booking they were brilliant gave us boxes before we had a date - took a little while for delivery but dropped them off for us nonetheless!
On the moving day- day before they were unreal for 90% of things and left us ‘comfortable’ for the night with beds and a sofa etc they were brilliant!
Also all of the boxes we used are getting picked up at some point soon I hope so we don’t need to dispose of them :)
At the new house they were great checked where we wanted things and the guys were just so nice -Andy and ‘Stretch’ were unbelievable

Highly recommend!
Never moving again a sits so stressful but if I was I would 100% use these guys again :)

Excellent experience from start to…

Excellent experience from start to finish. Euan who carried out the initial meeting for the quote was lovely and polite, very thorough and explained everything. Megan was lovely and kept us updated, responded promptly to any queries we had and talked us through the logistics for the day. Gav and his team were excellent on the day, so friendly, put us all at ease and they didn't stop! They really looked after our furniture and belongings, packed the truck quickly and made sure everything was put in the right room at the other end. They made sure the furniture was positioned where we wanted and checked to see if there was anything else they could help with. Honestly they took all the stress out of the whole process and we would recommend Hoults to anyone!

Ver smooth move

The guys were efficient in moving our stuff especially packing my precious china, which all arrived unbroken. Both ends went smoothly and we were glad to take the late key waiver as our keys were not available until 3 pm. I had other quotes and one was cheaper but did not seem professional and the other was more expensive, so we were glad we picked Hoults.

Move from Tynemouth to North Shields

The two guys who did the removals could not have been more helpful, they went above and beyond to ensure the whole process was very smooth. They took great care and were respectful and incredibly helpful.

Fantastic communications from day one…

Fantastic communications from day one from Megan and the admin team. On the day you couldn't have wished for a more dedicated and professional team. Thanks to the solicitor it dragged out but it did not phase the boys and they kept going.
You do not move that often but if I did I would look no further than Hoults removals. 1st class.

Hard working and cheerful

Andrew, Dave and Slav were professional, hard-working and cheerful. My helper had gone down with COVID, so they stepped in and gave me a hand with some things, very grateful. They actually made what could have been a stressful day quite enjoyable. Thanks!
