I have now used B&W three times and each time they have been exeptional. Everything is dealt with in a calm and professional manner. Genuinely the least stressful part of our move was the physical move!
Very good experience with Burke & Wills. They arrived on time, finished on time, and were clean, very helpful and accommodating. I recommend them.

In common with so many others, my removal experience with Burke & Wills has been only positive. Terance was endlessly helpful and patient during planning and re-planning. Pablo led an energetic pair of helpers who, together, did some very difficult technical turns bringing heavy items down 2 flights of awkward stairs.
Response from the owner:Dear John, Thank you for your wonderful review, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We are delighted to hear that your move was such a positive one. Thank you for your kind words about Terance and the planning process. We know that moving plans can change, so it is great to hear that the support and communication helped make everything easier. We are also pleased to hear that Pablo and the team handled the more challenging aspects of the move with such skill, care and professionalism. Moving heavy items down two flights of awkward stairs is never easy, so your recognition of their hard work means a great deal. Thank you again for your support and recommendation. We wish you all the very best in your new home.

I found myself very short of time and contacted Mark Pusey of Burke and Wills. His team, headed by Lloyd, arrived on the proper day and packed my entire apartment in 2 days flat. They were all very efficient, polite and nice to have around. Full Marks to all of them to help me out prior to my much needed refurbishment. They were great.
Response from the owner:Dear Joannah, Thank you for your wonderful review, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We are delighted to hear that Mark, Lloyd and the team were able to help at short notice and make everything run so smoothly. Packing an entire apartment in just two days is no small task, so it is fantastic to know the team were efficient, polite and a pleasure to have around. Thank you for your kind words and support. We will be sure to pass your compliments on to Mark, Lloyd and the team. We wish you all the best with your refurbishment and look forward to helping you again in the future.

We had an excellent experience of being moved by Burke & Wills last week. We exchanged only a week before our completion date but Billie-Jane and Lauren in the office were so helpful in finding an available team to move us, and were so quick and clear in all their communication. We had the full packing service, and Alex and the team were excellent at both ends of our move. Even though we'd needed too book an extra van during the move the whole move felt reasonable and competitive compared to other quotes, and they really took the stress out of our move. If only they had an unpacking service too, as I sit surrounded by boxes! Highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Dear Christine, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with Burke & Wills. We are delighted that Billie-Jane and Lauren were able to help organise your move at such short notice and kept everything clear and straightforward throughout. We will also be sure to pass your kind words on to Alex and the team for their excellent work at both ends of the move. It is great to hear that, even with the additional van needed on the day, you felt the service offered good value and that we helped take the stress out of moving. We completely understand the feeling of being surrounded by boxes afterwards! An unpacking service would certainly be handy, but we hope you are settling in well and enjoying your new home. Thank you again for your recommendation and for choosing Burke & Wills. Your feedback means a great deal to the whole team.

We received a great removals service, packing and transport very efficient. Not quite 5 stars as there was minor damage to some furniture. Customer experience would also be better if the removals team were all on the same payment structure (eg hourly vs day rate).
Response from the owner:Dear William, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We really appreciate your kind comments about the efficiency of our packing and transport service. We are sorry to hear that there was some minor damage to your furniture. We take the care of our customers' belongings very seriously and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

While this is an internal matter, we understand your point about consistency and how this could affect the customer experience, and we will take your feedback on board. Thank you again for choosing Burke & Wills and for sharing your experience. Your feedback is valuable to us as we continue to improve our service.

Outstanding from start to finish. Billie-Jane was polite, understanding and helpful as I bumbled my way towards my move date. I am ashamed to say I dont remember the name of the two guys who came on the day, but they were great, they dealt with tough parking and a very busy house on move day and did it with a smile and a joke. Absolutely would use the team again should I need to move!
Response from the owner:Dear Keith, Thank you for your fantastic review. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with Burke & Wills. We are delighted to hear that Billie-Jane was so helpful, patient and understanding throughout the planning of your move. Moving dates can certainly change and plans can get a little complicated, so it is great to know she helped make the process easier for you. We are also pleased to hear that the team handled the tough parking and busy moving day with such a positive attitude. Keeping things moving while still having a smile and a joke is exactly the approach we want from our crews. Thank you again for your kind words and support. We would be delighted to help you again whenever you next need us.

Excellent from start to finish, we were moving two properties as my 92 year old mum was moving in with us. They made it stress free experience and very professional. They were also very respectful to my mum who sometimes got in the way. Great work great team

I had such a great experience with Burke & Wills and couldn’t recommend them enough. The team were absolutely amazing from start to finish — extremely professional, friendly, careful and hardworking. I had several pieces of furniture that were incredibly heavy and difficult to move, and they carried everything upstairs without any complaints or hesitation. They handled all of my belongings with so much care and made what could have been a very stressful move feel completely effortless. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and they were helpful throughout the entire process. I’m genuinely so impressed with the service and really grateful to the whole team for all their hard work. Everything arrived safely and was placed exactly where I wanted it. I would 100% use Burke & Wills again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and professional moving company. Thank you so much!

Couldn't recommend more. Great communication beforehand with Bille-Jane and Mark. The team were super efficient, and managed a pretty awkward apartment all whilst laughing and joking with one another. Thanks for making our move un-stressful!

We used this company to move house across London, the actual movers and vans were from Aussie Man and Van because Burke & Wills were fully booked. The guy who packed the day before was brilliant and packed almost all our things in a few hours. This meant so much less stress for us as you do not have to think about how to pack fragile items and get boxes, tape etc. On the day of the move, all the guys were so friendly and reassuring that our things were safe with them. They put in absolute graft moving your things and you do not need lift anything whatsoever, it's really impressive. There was a small error about the address we were moving to being further than expected and they took it so well and made sure we had the right number of vans needed. Would 10/10 recommend this service to anyone, well worth the money!
Response from the owner:Dear Alexandra, Thank you so much for your fantastic and detailed review. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with Burke & Wills. We are delighted to hear that the packing service made such a difference and helped take away the stress of preparing fragile items, especially with the team getting almost everything packed in just a few hours. It is also great to hear that the moving team were friendly, reassuring and worked so hard on the day. We know moving house is a big job, so our aim is to take as much of the physical work and stress away from you as possible. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the address and are pleased that the team were able to adapt quickly and make sure the correct number of vans were provided. Thank you again for your 10/10 recommendation and for choosing Burke & Wills. Your kind words mean a great deal to the whole team, and we hope to help you again in the future.
