Having used Strongman Removals to move us to our new home, we would have no hesitation in recommending Nick and the entire team. Right from the initial survey, they were friendly, professional and handled our stuff with care. They were also flexible, even coming back the following day to move a large sofa that wouldn’t go through the door to the room.

Nick and the team were very professional and helpful.We used strongman removals for a pack and move service. They packed up the whole house and moved us in one day.Hard working team, friendly, good price, got the job done to a great standard.I highly recommend their services. Best removal company I've ever used.

We used them for a pack and move service. They arrived the day before completion to start packing, before loading the vans on the completion day.Pros:Highly responsive, friendly, well priced, got the job done!Cons:Very late leaving the property we had sold on the date of completion. Should have done more packing the day before/planned slightly better. It was embarassing to be keeping the new owners of our old house waiting for so long.

From first contact to the van driving away, I've been mightily impressed! Perhaps not totally straight forward, an art studio move from ground floor to second floor, but all was done with timely efficiency, and care - nothing damaged (apart from one grazed knuckle!). And brilliant communication all the way through.Would I use Strongman again? Definitely! Thanks, Nick and John!

22:12 01 Nov 22

A brilliant service, very impressed with Mike and Nick.Completed an online enquiry on a Sunday evening, received a call back within 10 minutes. They moved the furniture 2 days later with a time frame to suit myself. Upon arrival they were friendly and professional, went above and beyond to assist with reassembling the furniture. Would highly recommend as a removal company.

Dale Turley

07:38 13 Sep 22

Very impressed with Strongman Removals. We managed to get lucky with booking them at short notice. Mike came out to our house and surveyed what we needed to move and explained all about what would happen on moving day - which was helpful as this was a new experience for us. We found it very helpful and made us feel easier that there was always somebody we could reach by phone. On the morning we received a call letting us know what time to expect them and they arrived on time. The two lads, Ben and Raj, were great, helpful to us and worked incredibly hard to get us all moved. Couldn’t recommend them enough. Thanks!

Louise Smith

20:43 08 Sep 22

We were really impressed with Strongman Removals.The whole team were absolutely fab. Such a lovely group of guys who were friendly, polite, helpful and just a pleasure to have around on such a stressful day for us! Nothing was too much trouble and I really would recommend them to any friends and family that need a removals company in the future.Nick was great at explaining what the plan of action was and also letting us have our time to take in our new house before the unloading began, even though it was later in the day when we finally got our keys. It’s little things like this that matter and we really appreciated everyone’s patience.Each and every member of the team was so hardworking - thank you!

At a time of stress and potential high drama, it's important to have a team around you that are proffesional and calm.Strongman Removals were both of these. Mike represented the professional side, giving the reassurance that the service to come would be as we needed. Nick ran the Ops on the day(s). The team remained calm, hard working and professional throughout. I can't recommend them enough - would I use them again - absolutely !.

Ben Osborne

15:28 16 Nov 21

Can not speak highly enough of this business.Our move was not perfect, with a lot of let downs by other parties meaning our move date changed numerous times - but Strongman did not let us down at all.Clear with their communication, early to the job and all the pressure of moving was taken away along with some laughter as well. On the day. We really can’t thank you enough and if we were ever to move again then they would be my 1st call.Thank you for making the experience of moving actually quite enjoyable!

Bryan O

07:44 17 Sep 21

Absolutely brilliant company for moving house. I would highly recommend them. Very professional service given from the office and all paperwork discussed and sent out to me beforehand. Moving day is always stressful but definitely not with these guys. They arrived on time and were very friendly and helpful to me. A couple of bits of furniture had to be dismantled and the guys were happy to do this and then re-assemble at the other end. I would definitely use again. If I could give them more stars I would!

Kate Stokes

23:37 08 Mar 21

Brilliant removals service! They found mold on the back of our wardrobe, so we decided we didn't want it anymore and they even took it away from free. Thank you so much for your help. You made our move so much less stressful and we really appreciate it!

Joseph Buckley

100% fantastic experience start to finish!Beverly was exceptional with the telephone interactions, she is knowledgeable, understanding and willing to help with even the most trivial queries.I had a very professional video call with Mike who assessed our moving needs and provided us with a highly competitive quote. I highly recommended taking the boxes Mike supplies as they are far stronger and better quality then any other I found.On moving day, John and Aaron were the cherry on the cake! They turned up before time, were extremely professional and treated our items with the greatest of care and respect.Thank you so much to all at Strongman for making our move an enjoyable experience! Full marks from us and easily the best removals firm around!

After a a super stressful search for a removals company on the 18th December, I came across Strongman Removals who luckily had one slot available for such a busy date. From the get go they were super responsive, and really understanding about our date not being confirmed until last minute. I highly recommend them! Everyone was so lovely, and they were so speedy with packing up our house! They made the day go smoothly despite some troubles we had with completing!

We could not have asked for a better removals company to move my mom from our family home of 53 years to her new home. Mike, Bev, Stan and the guys could not have been more professional, friendly and aware of the enormity of the task for our mom. The packing service was invaluable and the move itself was slick and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend Strongman Removals to anyone. Thank you again!

Can't recommend these guys enough. From start to finish they were such a support during what I can only describe as a very stressful time. We were given one weeks notice to move and Mike was on the doorstep with boxes within hours and fit us in, so we could move on the day given to us. They were so professional throughout the day despite being delayed on the hottest day of the year, and left waiting! Nothing was a problem and didnt leave until we were all settled in. Smashing job and a great team of guys, who we were thoroughly thankful to! Not that I ever want to, but if i were to move again, they'd be my first port of call and i have recommended them to everyone.Thank you all again!

I have always hired a van and moved house myself, but never again thanks to the team at Strongman Removals & Storage. They were brilliant from start to finish. Myself and my partner moved from Kidderminster to Norwich and were very nervous about letting other people handle our precious belongings. I had Mike come over and give me a quote, he was patient, attentive and empathetic which helped put our nerves to rest. He took his time to explain to us what would happen on the day, their insurance coverage and offered to supply boxes and tape and everything in between at a fair price. We were quoted just shy of £800 for the whole move which after receiving quotes from other removal firms was the most reasonable. On the day, they were punctual, polite and committed to the job like a duck to water. They took extra care with sentimental items, wrapping them in protective material before being loaded. Some of the most professional work I've come across and definitely 10/10 on customer service. I would strongly recommend to use them for removals. I'll be keeping their number for the future 👍

Lisa Peter

10:45 29 Dec 19

Mike has been great to work with, proactive, polite, professional. He and Mark have been super in moving all our possessions, and always made sure to check in with us about progress, or about any items that needed taking extra care. We'd employ them again within a heartbeat and will make sure to recommend them to friends and colleagues in the West Midlands.
