Dean, Jacob and Martin are my new superheroes! Moving is traumatic enough without having only 10 days between exchange and completion to do all the packing. Martin professionally packed all our fragile items so everything arrived safely. Our heroes kept everything very calm and under control - including us. They coped with a lorry having a tyre blow-out in front of them on the M1, a delay in the solicitors transferring funds while they had their prolonged lunch, and finally a seller who would not give us the keys although she no longer owned the house! Dean and Jacob also removed a wardrobe from our new home (with no damage to the house) that the sellers' removers said they could not get out.
I am a great fan of all Stephens Removals staff, including Tracy, Natalie in the office and the assessor Stephen, and will not hesitate to recommend them. Despite the trauma everything arrived safely, and Dean and Jacob remained calm and professional throughout. Altogether we are very grateful that we chose Stephens!

Cannot thank Stephens enough for their hard work in moving us to Devon. Two crews came to help load to get us underway sooner. Access to our property in Devon was difficult to say the least but even late into the evening after a long day and long drive, the unloading was done professionally and with good humour. Thank you very much indeed and thank you also to Tracy for all the help and planning leading up to the move. Would definitely recommend Stephens to anyone. Very professional and reliable.
