 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Braithwaites did a fantastic job of moving us in what was always going to be a traumatic day from a house to a second floor apartment with no lift. Always great communication, professional, care and their disassembly and reassembly service was a god send. Would highly recommend and we would always use them in the future. Ben who we dealt with throughout was very professional and courteous and ensured all came together on the day with his great team.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely fantastic service from Ben Braithwaite Removals. Ben and the team were so patient and understanding, especially as we didn’t get our keys until late and they ended up waiting all day. They stayed professional, calm, and incredibly helpful throughout. We really appreciated everything they did for us and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Yesterday Braithwaites moved a grandfather clock for me, from one house to another in Bolton. They moved the clock safely and efficiently, wrapping it securely and removing all necessary parts. It was installed and fully working in its new location, within 2 hours of their starting work. I wholeheartedly recommend Ben Braithwaites and team.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What an absolute pleasure, having our house moved by Braithwaite's. What could have been a stressful, long and arduous day was a breeze - we even had some spare time to swap jokes and chat. The team work well together and somehow knew all the boxes/items to ask if there were special requirements without us saying a thing. Zero wall/floor damage at either house.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The whole team at Braithwaite’s Removals were fantastic. Our onward move did not go smoothly and yet they all went out of their way to make sure our boxes and furniture were still moved the same day. They are friendly, helpful and take absolute care with everything they moved. I will recommend them every time. Amazing company 👌
