Tyler, Adam, Adrian, Gareth & Paul were fabulous. They were very polite, very respectful. They worked quickly & very hard. They checked in with us to make sure they were removing the correct items. They were attentive to where we required our items. They were a pleasure to have in our home. We were so lucky with the last minute booking & having such a great team to move our stuff. Thank you.

Britannia are absolutely superb, as a professional short stay serviced accommodation provider in Stoke, YourStays has used Britannia numerous times and we would not use anyone else. They are always professional, act rapidly and the moves are made completely stress free. Our latest move was organised by Matthew, who was really helpful even outside of office hours. The gentlemen moving us on the day were Ant, John, Paul and Alan, all extremely professional and helpful. We highly recommend Britannia, thank you, Richard and the team at YourStays Management Ltd.

I was delighted with the service provided by Goodwin's from start to finish. They were very professional and the packing service was first class. They made the move from Staffordshire down to the Llyn Peninsula stress free. Special shout out to Darren, Lee, Robert and and John who were friendly, professional and very helpful. I've moved numerous times over the last 40 years and this was the best service yet - 5 Stars!

We selected Britannia Goodwins to handle the packing and storage of our household items, and our experience was truly outstanding! Tyler and Adrian were not only punctual but also maintained a high level of professionalism and friendliness. They efficiently completed the task in just a couple of hours, showcasing their expertise. We are wholeheartedly impressed and wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to others. Britannia Goodwins, thanks for making our moving process so smooth and quick!

Not sure who to use for our international home movement.Goodwins was recommended and we are very pleased they were.Matthew professionally addressed all aspects of the shipment whilst being personable and responsive, his consummate approach to all allowed us to feel quite relaxed about the whole project.On the moving day Matthew arrived with Darren, it was fascinating to watch how these two people packed the most difficult items.Excellent work ethics , within two hours all wax completed and away. Having moved both domestically and internationally before without the most proficient, professional people and company we have employed.Well done gents

What a fabulous service. We moved from a large property with difficult access and the team of Tyler, Lee, Adam, Alan, Anthony, John and Gareth from Brittannia Goodwins removals were simply brilliant. They were all so helpful and friendly, but as importantly obviously knew exactly what they were doing. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality and proffesional removal service.We are so pleased we chose to use themAll the best to the team and thanks again.Mr & Mrs BradburyHolmes Chapel Cheshire

Britannia Goodwins moved us on 20 July. What could have been a stressful day was minimised by the calm efficiency, good humour, politeness and professionalism of the team. Darren coordinated the process with quiet expertise and the operation concluded swiftly and without incident. So Darren, Kim, Paul, Alan, Lee and Tony very many thanks. You did a fantastic job for us.

We had a great experience throughout our whole removal process! My husband and I did not have anytime to pack before we moved down to London. John, Rob and Garath arrived on time and packed everything our whole flat very carefully. All our furniture and belongings were moved without any damage. John, Rob and Garath were very helpful! Especially when some of our furniture did not fit through our front door and we needed to figure out an alternative way to get it in the flat. I could not recommend this company more!

Britannia Goodwins (Stafford) removed and have put into storage our contents. All staff were polite, respectful and very efficient. They all worked well as a team, and each member of the team knew which job they were assigned to and got on with it. It was refreshing to hear that Britannia Goodwins support and encourage staff training. After the first stage, I would certainly give them a 5 * rating and will endorse this when the task is completed i.e. when all contents are returned safely and as one would expect. Well done and thank you for your help thus far!

We had a great experience during our move from London to York. We used the full packing service and it really made the move feel easy and stress-free. The video survey was very straightforward, as was organising the booking with Claire, and the move itself went very smoothly - Paul, Anthony, Lee and Gareth were first class and couldn't have been more helpful. We were really pleased with the service and would absolutely recommend. Thanks again to the team.

We were so pleased to have chosen Britannia Goodwins to manage our move from Cheshire to Surrey. They were an excellent team from packing ( Lee and Adam) to unloading and putting a rather large amount of stuff where we wanted it to go into a much smaller property ( Lee, Darren, Gareth and Alan). Nothing was broken or lost. We definitely recommend them and and especially their full packing service as that took all the stress out of the move.Thanks to you all. David & Rosemary

Bit daunting moving house after 21 years. Ernie came round and assessed everything, gave very reasonable price for the move. We elected to pack our own boxes. We only exchanged contracts 7 days before completion so it really was a last minute confirmation, this posed no problem and the day was booked and paid for.The day before the move the lads attended and packed half the house into the van. On day of the move they arrived nice and early and finished everything by midday. The wardrobe rails and boxes were a godsend as you don't need to pack all your clothes off hangers. Completion was done and we set off to new house about 45 minutes away. Took the whole afternoon to unpack the van with a little help from myself. All boxes were placed in correct rooms. After unpacking only one small knock to a drinks cabinet and one broken glass. Nothing to complain about as we had a lot of boxes and items. in all a very professional service carried out quickly and efficiently. Thanks to Callum, Anthony and Gareth for their hard work and professional service. Will definitely recommend this company although won't be moving again ourselves, ha ha.

From the survey of our disjointed move, to the delivery of it, faultless, the survey delivered the right number vehicle’s and people to do the job in a day, the two companies in competition both quoted two days.The crew turned up on time and were very efficient and experienced at what they do!Thank you to Tyler,Adam,Tim and Simon, great team effort by you all. Big thank you for Simon’s help with keeping our dogs chilled.Cheers guys,John and Liz.

Britannia Goodwins moved my mum's belongings from the West Midlands down to Sandhurst, Berkshire recently. Adrian, Adam & Gareth from the Stafford branch were all courteous and communicated well at every stage. They were respectful of mum's feelings given she is in her 80s and moving house for the first time since the early 1980s. All items were securely packaged or contained and both mum and I have no hesitation in recommending them. They made an emotional/stressful day much, much easier. Thank you.

My household goods were picked up by Darren, Alan & Gareth. Despite some not so good weather they were professional & cheerful & in my opinion did a very good job.Delivery was done by John, Rob, Kaine & Callum. Again what a delightful team. Very polite & nothing was too much trouble.No hesitation in giving this firm & their crew 5 stars.

I used Britannia Goodwins for the removal of my items into their storage in August 2022 following the sale of my house and the redelivery of my storage containers and items upon my new purchase in April 2023. From start to finish I have received a professional and friendly service and I always felt confident that my personal belongings in storage were safe due to seeing how well they were packaged. Due to the narrow nature of the road I was moving to I was concerned that the normal truck would be too big and asked Britannia to assess the road prior to delivery. They did this and recommended that 2 smaller vehicles were required. This took away the stress and worry that there would be issues on the redelivery of my goods on the day. Tyler, Adam and Cane called me when they were close to the new house and were friendly, courteous, efficient and nothing was too much trouble. All goods delivered undamaged with as little stress as is possible during a house move. Thanks to all involved in the whole process. I would certainly recommend using this company and would do so myself again in the future. Peter Griffiths

Can't speak highly enough of our experience with this firm. Naturally there's always a level of apprehension when inviting work/trades people into your home but Britannia delivered on every front. I don't recall the gents name but the guy who came out to give us our quote was friendly and professional. He gave us a comprehensive break down of how the process worked and of the companies policies which ultimately swayed us from opting for a cheaper alternative. The day of our move our removal guys Dan, Tyler and Gareth were brilliant. With it being a very stressful day it was clear from the start we were in good hands. They were very polite and patient despite our delays getting the keys and all our stuff was moved in and out quickly and without any damage or problems despite some tricky access issues. They also handed in some cash that they found during the load out which we had totally forgotten about which really spoke to their character. I would definitely recommend this firm to anybody who has a move in their future plans.

Absolutely first class. The team that arrived to pack our house were prompt, professional and took care of everything as if it were their own.All of the staff in the office and on the pack & move days were courteous, responsive and showed a huge desire to satisfy the customer. More importantly, there was a sense of calm and fun within the team which massively eased the potential pressure on what could have been a really stressful day.

Thank you so much John, Rob, Alan & Lee who moved us on one of the coldest frostiest days of the year with ice and a layer of snow. They were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble! These guys truly are the back bone of the business and their customer service skills were 5*. I also spoke to the owner of the Leicester branch to book in the move and he was so helpful and patient when we were back and forth with dates. I would like to make a point that Britannia Goodwins are not the cheapest removal company out there but I would pay 10 times over to have John, Rob, Alan & Lee come to help us move again. The quality and availability they have is second to none, they even sent the team from another part of the country to complete our move as the Leicester branch were busy on that day; you simply dont get that service with any other removal company.Thank you so much John, Rob, Alan & Lee you deserve all the recognition for working so hard and professionally on the coldest day of the year.

Dan, Lee, Ant and Adam arrived promptly on the day and had our whole house loaded in under 2 hours. Dan and Lee were just as efficient on the unload the next day, the whole team were friendly, polite and professional in their manner. Our first experience in using a company instead of doing it ourselves, and whilst an expensive endeavour to move across the country was absolutely worth the money and would highly recommend Goodwins for anyone in a similar position.

Britannia Goodwins moved us from Staffordshire to Cambridge in October. Would highly recommend. It was a three day process and Tyler, Lee, Dan, Darren and Kim were the professional, considerate and friendly team managing the whole process. They worked efficiently; packed everything with care; were flexible when we had delays on move day; and got everything into the right rooms in the new place quickly. They made the whole process straightforward and took away a lot of stress.

John, Ian, Paul, Ant, Dan and Rob were a fantastic team! They packed for us, loaded us and moved us all the way down to Cornwall.I cannot fault them. They were incredibly hard working and professional. Nothing was too much trouble for them. All our belongings arrived safe and sound and all delivered with a smile!I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Thanks guys (apologies for taking a while to leave the review)!

The guys who did our move were amazing (Paul, Alan, Rob and Tyler) it was 32C and baking hot and the lads didn't stop grafting all day and finished quite late as we had to wait for keys to our new place. They asked us if unsure about anything and were a good laugh all day. Made the move great despite the heat. Would defo recommend and use again. Thanks guys

Excellent service from Dan, Ash, Ian, Darren and Gareth. Delicate items packed and moved carefully. Dan and Ash dismantled big furniture and neatly reassembled it in our new house. Moving can be stressful, but Goodwins made it easier. I'd definitely use them again. Thanks!

Excellent experience from start to finish. Very careful and quick packing by John, Gareth, Ian and Adrian. Have now unpacked everything and not a single item was damaged. Delivery was arranged over two days and Darren, Ian, Adrian, Ant and Tyler did a great job, especially getting larger items through some tight spaces. Went like clockwork. Thanks to Paul and Rob for their assistance. Will definitely book you for my next move!

This is the first time we have used a removals company. We also used their packing service. I am a bit of a control nut really and I was uneasy about letting others do this for me and move us from Cheshire to the North East. But, due to work commitments i had little choice. I am so glad i did. Dan, Ant, Gareth, Paul and Alan were amazing.They slogged it out for 2 days packing and loading and then another two days driving up north and unloading us. I didn't hear any moans (and it was hot) and they were so professional and polite. Things they thought of in relation to where to put things on the van as we will need them first at the other end just showed their experience. Everything was really well packaged and nothing got lost or broken (that i have founf yet), the whole experience made moving much easier.Based on this experience i would definitely recommend them if you are based in Staffordshire / Cheshire areas.Thanks so much.

We needed a new wardrobe going upstairs which had to be carried up through a Window as our stairs are small. Every other removal firm refused to quote but these guys were all over it.Tyler, Paul, John and Allan arrived promptly and were very friendly. No messing about and got the job done with a smile.Also shout out to Catherine in the office who was super helpful with the quote and organising the dates and times to suit us. All round 5 star service. Would definitely recommend

The guys at Britannia Goodwins helped us out in our time of need, when everything else with or move was falling apart. We had to book last minute due to ongoing issues we had with our chain and they were able to fit us in and save us from having to try and hire some vans and do the move ourselves, which would have been a nightmare! Then on the day of the move there were more delays with the funds being released down the chain, meaning we weren't able to move our things into the new property until late in the evening. Jon, Ian, Ade and Paul could not have been more helpful and cooperative and had an amazing positive attitude despite the issues at our end. I would definitely use them again for any future moves and highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a removal company.

Goodwins moved us from Derbyshire to Scotland and we were so impressed with the team who did the work, Ian and John who were in charge and did the whole 4 days and Gareth and Tyler who did the initial packing. We had so much stuff! but they all worked hard and were pleasant, helpful and considerate throughout. I hadn't fully realised how much skill is required for this work, from packing carefully to loading the lorry correctly to unloading and placing things in the right place and reassembling the furniture. Ian and John were so obviously experienced and knowledgeable about the whole job that we could relax and leave them to it. Thank you for a job well done.

Britannia were able to help us move at what ended up being short notice and were exemplary throughout. The packing service was careful and considerate and the moving team were kind and friendly, making a stressful experience really straightforward. We are very grateful to Paul, Alan and Adrian for everything they did for us.

Paul, Alan and Adrian moved us last week and provided an outstanding service. Professional, efficient, hard working, polite and a great sense of humour - this all helped us hugely with a three day move. We can’t thank them enough.

We’ve moved house with Goodwins 7 times now (I think, I’ve sort of lost track we’ve moved that much) and every time it’s been spot on! I can’t find a single fault in all of the moves that have happened.They work incredibly hard and this time was certainly no different. Rob, John and Adrian did a sterling job, and nothing was too much of an ask for them (even the huge sofa bed going down and back upstairs). Everything was well packed on to the van and arrived safely on the other side.Using Goodwins is an easy choice every time we move (although hopefully it’ll be a little while until we need their services again!)
Adrian Milledge

From the minute Catherine answered the phone to deal with my query, Darren conducted the FaceTime survey of the considerable amount of items that needed moving and gave us a quote for the job, Clive, Lee, Ant and Rob did our packing then, joined by Paul and Alan on day two to effect the move, unloaded everything, we did not have one anxious moment during what can be a stressful experience. Everyone, especially the six involved in the move, was unfailingly polite, could not have been more helpful and treated our goods with the utmost care and respect. Hopefully, the supply of tea, coffee and carbonated beverages on day two, were some sort of recompense for a job well done. In short, Top Job, boys and a BIG thank you is due. Looking ahead, if we move again, hopefully not anytime soon, we'd have no hesitation is using this company again.

I required both removals and storage because I was moving out and staying with a family member temporarily until I found a new place. Brittania sent someone to my house to estimate the amount of storage I would need and to explain the charges for the packing, removals and storage of my belongings. Everything was made very clear. Of the three companies from which I obtained quotes only Brittania and one other sent someone to visit me before the move.The removals van arrived promptly on the day of the move and the men worked really hard to get things done as quickly and professionally as possible, including dismantling the beds and other items. They took great care to protect the carpets and furniture items with film and packed everything, including fragile items, very well and securely.The three month storage charges were very reasonable. When I moved into my new property the unloading was carried out with the same care and attention to detail as when I'd moved out of my previous house. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Excellent and friendly service.

We moved friday Alan and Tony came Thursday to start the process what a very nice pair of gents, Dan and Paul joined them on Friday also 2 really nice guys. All were very well mannered very approachable, nothing too much trouble! They all worked very very hard they earned their money. i hope they are appreciated we certainly did. They made a really stressful experience a lot easier. We also found any contact we had over the phone to be very polite courteous and very helpful, even with multiple calls and question's. We would highly recommend their assistance, and would have no hesitation using them again. A credit to your company lads!

John, Ian and Anthony arrived on time and explained what they would be doing over the three days. Any concerns we had were dealt with easily. They made the whole process enjoyable. Everything was packed to go to storage and we couldn't have been happier. Their experience was evident as they negotiated removal of various large items without any damage to fixtures and fittings. Now we can't wait to move in to our next house, hopefully with the same team if we can.
Clare Lodwick

We had John, Ian, Anthony, Alan, Matt, Rob and Kieran. We were moving from the Midlands to near Winchester. They could not have been more helpful, friendly and accommodating. We had very difficult access and parking at both ends which they successfully negotiated without any complaint. They also managed to load and offload an upright piano on what I can only describe as near impossible conditions with no damage and significant skill and professionalism.I would like to particularly mention Ian and John who were with us everyday and are both absolutely fantastic, managing to smile and joke while also being efficient, kind and profession.Thank you to the whole crew you were fab! I Hope you had a wonderful Christmas

Excellent service from Paul, Alan & Anthony. They never stopped moving often nearly running to get the next boxes. We had 17 years worth of baggage to move and lots that were still to be boxed. These guys never moaned once and went beyond in our opinion. We would not hesitate to use them again and would recommend them. Thank you the whole ordeal & stress of moving has been faultless throughout.

In July, Clive, Lee, Alan, Dan and Gareth moved us from Mow Cop into their storage facility in Stafford. The team worked tirelessly for two days. Nothing was too much trouble, everything ran smoothly and great care was taken with all our possessions. In October the team of Dan, Ant, Rob and Darren moved us from storage to Wilmslow. We received the same professional service from this team. Matt from the office was also very helpful and we will be using Goodwin’s again in the near future. Highly recommendable service from all concerned.Debbie Richards

Goodwins moved us from Stafford to Sutton Coldfield on Friday, and they were excellent. Paul, Alan, Anthony and Dan arrived at 8am and worked incredibly hard all day - they worked quickly and efficiently, they took very good care of our possessions and nothing was damaged. We were in by 4.30pm with 3 beds having been reassembled and a selection of heavy/complicated items items into the garage safely - and we were all still smiling! Highly recommended and better price than all local competitors. Head office staff (especially Matt) also excellent and very responsive.
