Meerkat was fantastic! We used their packing service and everything was done so quickly and thoroughly. On the day of the move, the guys went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and the job was done right. Highly recommend!

A fantastic team. We chose to box up ourselves, they came in and loaded the contents with speed and care. My wife was left alone as I was working, they were kind and courteous to her. They also went the extra mile to move stuff to a different location for us. I cannot thank this team enough just for being so stress free to us.

Really first class service from Meerkat Removals. They moved me out, stored everything for a couple of weeks, and then moved me in. Nothing broken at all. The removal guys were very hard working and special mention must go to Tamas who is just superb. Also special mention to Andy who is always there on the end of the phone for any queries. Would totally recommend Meerkats.

Very easy to deal with and extremely accommodating. I was able to organise collection from two different addresses without any problems. On moving day, Thomas was very punctual, fast and efficient. Would highly recommend.

Meerkat Removals - professional, reliable, polite, friendly, and flexible - they moved my stuff from London to Cambridge where I was relocating at a short notice, just before Christmas and were incredibly helpful.

After a great first experience, we have waited all afternoon for an agreed removal service paid in advance. Noone showed up or called.it is now 17:30 and still no answer from them. Update: we received a call at 18:30 offering to come and start the service. They where very apologetic and offered even to complete the service for free on another day. We did not take up the offer as we had time constraints but at least they offered. A full refund was given immediately. As I say the first service was great so basing my overall experience I would still recommend you give Meerkats removal a chance for your removals.

Meerkat Removals did our house move earlier in the week. This was moving 4 van loads of our belongings very smoothly between houses. The 4 person team worked incredibly hard to pack, transport and deliver all of our belongings safely and quickly and often went above and beyond to make sure everything ended up where we wished. We would not hesitate to recommend them!

Norbert and the team were fantastic, they packed and moved us from Cambridge to London in record time and in snow. We had to change our removal date at quite short notice and they were still able to accommodate us. Would highly recommend, extremely helpful, reliable service.

Meerkat were great, they were friendly and professional, a really nice team to work with. It was a tiring day for everyone as they moved us literally next door, which might sound easy, but means there is none of the usual break for the team while they drive to the new house and wait for the keys - it was just non-stop shifting all our furniture from one house to the other. Nevertheless, they just kept going and were cheerful all day. Meerkat were especially kind in holding our booking even though we didn't know if we could move until the last minute.
On the day, when it looked like we weren't going to be moved in time, I asked if they could send another person to help and they immediately sent out another person. Great service, would definitely recommend them.

Meerkat provided outstanding service to us during our move. We used their Gold service and it is worth every penny. The Meerkat team (4 people) were extremely professional, efficient and courteous. They packed, moved and unpacked all of our things without us having to do anything other than direct where things were to go once unpacked. Their estimate for the total job time was within 15 minutes of the total time taken and, by 15:00, that day we were officially 'moved in' without needing to do anything further. I'd consider this to be amongst the best customer service I have received from any company and would recommend them to anyone needing removals and/or professional cleaning services.

This company is amazing. They were recommended to me, and as soon as I called I knew why. From the initial call to discuss my needs, Monika was friendly, understood my needs and explained the process. The day of removal went smooth, which meant I was able to remain calm and relaxed. The team were super professional, and treated my possessions with care and respect. They did not stop for tea or snacks throughout the day and got the job done efficiently.
I really would recommend this company if you're moving. They were also very competitive with their pricing, and the insurance they offer for your goods is great. Don't be fooled by cheaper quotes that don't insure your goods, Meerkat Removable at Cambridge tick so many boxes.

Our container of personal effects shipped out of the Middle East, but before we could also leave, our country shut its airports ! Still in lock down now. No planes moving in or out. When our container arrived in Felixstowe last week, Meerkat quickly stepped in to off load our goods into storage in Cambridge. They were very quick and very professional. Thank you guys!

We moved within the village of Lower Cambourne. We were very pleased with the crew who moved us. All was packed professionally on day one. On day two everything was moved to the new place and all furniture was assembled by them. Nice people and I would definitely recommend Meerkat Removals to friends. Thank you.

Fantastic service from start to finish. We moved from Cambridge to South Wales (3 bed) and it couldnt be easier. We shopped around with quotes from various removal companies and Meerkat was certainly one of the most competetive. I liked the fact that Meerkat removals representative took the time to visit the property ahead of the move, so no surprises on the day. The team (3) + 2 Luton vans doing the move couldnt be faulted and took care of everything,,a very professional and friendly service. I would recommend taking the packing service option as part of your move, it is well worth it. I would (and will) use their services again, and highly recomend their team. Well done and thank you.

Fantastic service from MeerKat Removals, right from the first call to the final box being set down in the flat. The guys that moved my gear arrived on time, were very friendly, helped me move my stuff in good order and even aided me in the installation of my washer-dryer combo! Top lads, I have their number saved in case I need to move house again. Give them a try, you won't regret it!!

We used Meerkat to move out stuff from the container to the house. 2nd time we have used them and just as good. They also plumbed in the washing machine and cleared a wardrobe that had been left . Brilliant and fully recommended

The amazing Meerkat Removals team moved me from Sturmer to Bardwell 2 weeks ago. The quote was very competitive and right from the start I felt confident with Norbert and his team. On the move day the guys did an incredible job, they were courteous, polite, friendly, and SO hard working!! Even at the end of the job they were still lovely with smiles on their faces! - I cannot thank them enough. Everything was handled well and packed efficiently, nothing was too much trouble for them.
I am very grateful to the team i had for making what could have been a stressful day go as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend Meerkat Removals above any other removals company (and i have used a few in this area). They are honest and get on with the job in a positive friendly way - THANK YOU guys

Used these in October 2016, and was so impressed. The quote was very reasonable and the visit was professional, she had answers to all my questions. Excellent response to emails and easy to contact by phone.
Moving day was great, I simply did a brief walkabout to advise what was staying, going, being taken by us, and then they just got on with it. Would use again in a heartbeat. Thank you Meerkat!

Having never heard of Meerkat before, my wife was a little nervous of using them for our big day ...... but, we weren't disappointed - the service was excellent! Monika's quotation was completed quickly and efficiently and then the actual move led by Norbert and his team was extremely smooth and hassle free. The team are so hard working and know exactly what they are doing! We would have no hesitations in recommending Meerkat to anyone looking to move!

I used this company's services last week to move from Cambridge to Watford. They took care of the removal and packing as well. It wasn't terrible, but there are some details that I was not particularly happy with: - even though I mentioned that I care a lot about my books, some of them were packed in the same box with clothes and other objects; - my bathroom shelf was disassembled without my permission and, to be very honest, I do not have the time nor the skills to reassemble it; - I was told at 9 pm on Friday that the removal process will only start at 10 30 - 11 00 am on Saturday, instead of 9 am as discussed with initially. - after I sent them my feedback, they didn't even apologize.
