Turtons have moved our office twice now and I can't recommend them any higher. We have quite technical requirements that take a lot of care and pre-planning to move, the team were very considerate throughout and made sure we were comfortable in the process before we started. Highly recommended for commercial moves.

We booked Turtons for a move in November this year and I was really impressed with their service. In terms of booking them it was really easy to get a quote and they offered a reasonable price. I found Ben really helpful in the run up, he was really responsive and happy to answer questions about packing and the process. On the day, they arrived promptly and were careful, polite and efficient. It made the move much less stressful and I wonder why we've ever tried to move by ourselves in the past!

Excellent house move from Ben and team. Hired to perform a 532 mile round trip at great value. They organised a time the night before to start moving items and furniture into the van so that we could leave as early as possible the next day as I had a deadline to pick up the keys for the new apartment. They covered and protected the sofa and mattress and safely moved them out and into both properties and handled all items with care. Ultimately, they are highly recommend and well reviewed for a reason.

Many thanks for the professional and friendly service provided to us. Our move wasn't the easiest - with difficult access to our new property - but issues were overcome professionally and calmly and the end result was that the move was completed on time and to a high standard.

Very nice, polite and helpful movers. I was very happy with the service. They made a stressful move very easy. Treated my items carefully and with respect. On my move day my kitchen flooring was not complete so they helped store my fridge, washing machine and dishwasher elsewhere in the house and even offered to come back to move them into the kitchen when my flooring was done. I would definitely use them again.

Would like to thank Ben and his team for their excellent service from start to finish. This was for a move of approx. 250 miles. Ben and his team conducted themselves professionally, with politeness and humour. We would thoroughly recommend this company for their excellent service. We will certainly be using them again with our next move. Thank you Ben and the team.

There are removals companies and then there is Turton's Removals! From the first minute of dealing with the team to the last it was a pleasure. I was in a bit of pickle and was in need of 2 moves asap. The team over at Turton's Removals did everything to make me feel calm and focused on the other stuff I needed to do! I couldn't recommend Turton's Removals enough! Great service, very professional and everything was done with a smile, keep up the good work.

They have to be the nicest and most professional team of movers I have come across. We will definitely be using them again. We needed a rather large piano moved from passageway to dining room via the garage, 400lb in weight. They moved it with ease. Taking time to ensure it was protected. Absolutely first class.

Ben and his team were great. Really polite friendly guys. It wasn't an easy job moving our furniture due to access difficulties but they ploughed on and didn't complain at all. Items such as mattresses and TV's were carefully protected before loading. It was a professional service. I'd definitely recommend!

Ben helped us move from London to Newcastle, and was professional, helpful and on time. He and his team made sure that all our belongings are loaded in a safe way, and all arrived to Newcastle in a perfect condition. I would really recommend Turton's Removals and Storage for any house move.

Ben and his team were fantastic throughout what was a quite a complex move. Quick responses to phone calls before to answer questions and reassure. Very efficient packing and unpacking and worked really hard to problem solve some trickier items. And all very cheerful throughout! We were very happy with the company and would certainly use them again.

Brilliant service from Ben and his team. From the very first minute with a what's app call to leaving our new home, they were first class with their professionalism but also friendly and a good laugh. They probably would have finished even earlier if I'd stopped chatting with them! They even helped move some of the items from the couple we bought off as their removal men were struggling! Would definitely recommend wardrobe boxes too! Cheers Ben and team.

Ben and his team were awesome managing our house move. We opted for full packing service including dissemble and reassemble options. They worked so hard across two days firstly packing up our household items and, today, finalising the packing up and then managing the unloading and assembling. We were really impressed with their very friendly attitude, professionalism and work ethic. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Nothing was too much trouble and they took fantastic care of all of our items - everything packed carefully and diligently.

From the moment we contacted Ben I knew this was the company for us. We were relocating from the north east to Essex. After a very thorough video call on what we would be taking, Ben supplied a very reasonable quote which we were very happy with. Throughout the process, the communication between myself and the company was 100%. When it came to the move, Ben made sure it was as stress free as possible for us and it truly paid off. All our furnishings were well taken care of and the team were very professional throughout the whole process. I would not hesitate to recommend Turton's to anyone who was moving house!

We would like to thank Ben, Jonny, Robbie and Sam for all their hard work moving us to Whitby. The move was over 3 days and involved multiple vans. Ben and his team were good humoured, efficient and treated our belongings with care and respect. We wish Ben all the best for his business in the future as he truly deserves to go from strength to strength.

Highly recommend Ben and his team. Friendly and professional service. We had a very challenging move, and Ben and his team went over and above to help us. Extremely professional in their manner, and they took excellent care of our belongings (wrapped) and of both properties (flooring etc protected). Genuinely friendly and helpful, and seemed very experienced at what they do. Quality service, cannot recommend enough.
