Reliable, efficient, professional and generally brilliant! We had the packing and removal service and it took the stress out of moving house. Everything was packed so carefully and wrapped In paper with no breakages or damage to any of our goods. The lads were lovely who came over 2 days to do the job, can't speak highly enough of them! We had quotes from 3 other companies, Quicksilver were very reasonable and provided far more for the money than the other companies. Thank you for providing such a brilliant service!

Would definitely recommend Quicksilver for moving. They fitted us in with only 6 days notice of moving and despite them being one member short on the day, they arrived early and got straight on with packing the van. A short lunch break and another two members of the team turned up to help empty the van into the new house. Nothing was too much bother including trying to manoeuvre some very awkward wardrobes! A professional service at a very reasonable price with some lovely team members.

From first calling Quicksilver until the end of removal day, their customer service was excellent. The team were punctual and hardworking. Throughout the 10 hour day they remained helpful and cheerful to the end -despite the great distance between their van and the 2nd floor apartment that I was moving into! I can also recommend the packing service that they offered prior to move. Many thanks to 'my' team. A great company that I'm glad I was advised to use, - look no further!

We had booked Quicksilver in from a friend recommendation and I have to say everything went perfectly. The time keeping was impeccable and the men stayed until the job was completed thoroughly despite it being past 7pm on a Friday of bank holiday weekend. When moving our family home of 30 years we needed someone who we could trust and make this stressful time carefree, with quicksilver that's exactly what we got! 12 out of 10 for service and the lads still managed to smile despite working non stop through the snow. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.

I used Quicksilver a good few years ago, and never thought about writing a review, I had my furniture stored there for about 12 months, but when I came to unpack I obviously did not check things correctly, as there was too many to check. But on looking for 2 certain tapestries, one which I had completed myself and one which I had finished for my grandmother, had both disappeared, it was far to long after I realised they were missing to complain, but just to let everybody know that you must check everything you had in storage.

I would like to convey my appreciation to all of the staff at Quicksilver who assisted in the transfer of our Finance Department to our new building. Each move passed by without a hitch and the professionalism of your company was exceptional. I would also like to praise the way the IT equipment was unplugged and packed for each move.

Amazing! Turned up when they were meant to, didn't stress over key delay, just took care of everything; huge relief! Had cheaper quotes from others, but would rather pay a wee bit more for these amazing reliable, easy going guys at such a stressful time! Would not hesitate to recommend!!
