This company is amazing! They really made a stressful day so much easier!
I applied for a quote on the Friday and they came on the Saturday to see the house and quote a price.
It was worth every penny. They communicated about what they were doing at every step, protected all my furniture, and were calm and kind throughout.
Everything fit in two vans and went in one go and they unloaded at the other end. They went above and beyond as well - even offering to remove drawer runners when I wanted a piece of furniture a different way up in the new house.
The only thing that went missing was my divan bed clips and I found them in the other house on the windowsill (white on white!) - the company offered to come back and fit them which was, again, going above and beyond.
All my stuff arrived in perfect condition.
The lads were chatty and genuinely really nice people. I'd 100% use them again.

The move from previous house to new house was incredible with forest Removals. The owner of forest Removals was brilliant, answered any questions I had, made sure I had enough boxes and bubble wrap etc, did a call before the move to make sure all timings and date was ok, and the team on the day was splendid. Introduced themselves, worked fast and hard, moved the furniture when it didn't look right in the new house. If I could I'd give them more stars than five. And if I had to move again I'd definitely go for forest Removals. What a great firm!

We very recently moved home using Forest Removals who were exceptionally good. Callum and his team were very friendly, professional and made the experience as stress free as possible. From Callum's personable initial home visit to provide a quote, which we received the same day, Adele's reassuring call on moving day morning, to the last pieces of furniture being unloaded, they made us feel calm and reassured. The team arrived on time, got on with the job at hand and told us to pop back in a couple of hours. We did as we were told, went for breakfast at the local pub ☺️, then returned to find most of our possessions packed up. Once completely packed up and receiving our new property's keys, the team proceeded to unload everything with care. The day ran smoothly thanks to their professionalism and calm, happy demeanour. The lads displayed great teamwork, had a great sense of humour and are a credit to the company. Would definitely recommend Forest Removals and wouldnt hesitate in using them again.

We relocated from London to Lancashire and Forest Removals were recommended by our estate agents. Reaching out we spoke to one of the owners Callum who was extremely helpful and professional. Having now moved this week I can honestly say that our experience with Forest Removals was exceptional. They packed our house in London with care and diligence making sure that we were fully engaged throughout. Four vans loaded by Callum ( the boss also puts in a shift) Mark, Anthony and Jordan. Unloading in our new house took only 4 hours with Steve and Josh making 6. All great guys and extremely friendly and courteous. The price of the move for the work required was extremely competitive. I would recommend anyone moving to speak to Forest Removals first as you will not be disappointed. Made our move 260 miles much easier than my wife and I could ever have imagined. Great company, fantastic crew and a great attitude and warmth to their clients. The best they I can say is that if I was moving tomorrow. ( definitely a no!!) Forest Removals would be my first and last call to assist. Ian and Lorraine.

If you want a professional, family focused experience where nothing is too much; then look no further than Forest Removals. We had friendly, prompt and efficient service from the moment we made contact, until after the move was complete. Nothing was ever too much and it was worth every penny for what their team have to offer. Forever grateful to the Forest family, you’ll never know the difference you made to our family and thanks to you, the stress of relocation for us was made seamless due to your outstanding service. Taking care of our home like it was your very own, the kids even missed you once you were gone. Words just don’t seem enough, your service went beyond our expectations. Incredible!

Calum & the team are fantastic. They made my move as smooth & stress free as possible. Mark, Joshua & Anthony worked so hard on moving day. From the moment they entered my house they were so professional. They dismantled furniture where needed & put it back together again at the other end. Everything was put in the correct rooms to unpack. I would highly recommend forest removals. Thanks all ❤️

Forest Removals we’re brilliant. From day one meeting Callum for a house visit to helping with our furniture drop off to the auction house, they were excellent throughout. Even getting our couch out our narrow door didn’t slow then down!!! Our move took us from Lancaster to Inverness and the guys were professional to the end even after dark.
I would definitely recommend them and should I need to move again they will be my first call.

Forest Removals is the gold standard in removals companies. They made our move an absolute pleasure from start to finish. All the team were professional, friendly, diligent and polite, not to mention expert in packing and furniture manoeuvres.
I would like to call out their expert packing service. We couldn’t have packed our possessions ourselves any better. They took all the stress away and actually made the two days they were with us a lot of fun.
We would highly recommend them, and indeed we suggested to them that they put their prices up because they were SO good.

If you want a professional approach to a house move, I would have no reservation in recommending Forest removal. We had a 4 man team arrive punctually, provide covers & wardrobe boxes where required and moved my mum's house contents with efficiently & care, even providing solutions for difficult manoeuvres.
Thank you team Forest.

I found the whole experience with Forest Removals to be outstanding. Right from the initial phone call to arrange the removal, their customer service was excellent and they went above and beyond with everything. They were always contactable even late on in the evening and they took a lot of the pressure off prior to the move. On the day, Calum, Mark and Josh were fantastic. They turned up on time and were friendly, polite and worked extremely quickly and efficiently to get me moved from one house to the other. They took great care to ensure that my belongings and items were looked after and that there was no damage done to anything. I would totally recommend Forest Removals for anybody wishing to move house. Richard (Lancaster)

Calum and the team are quite amazing people. Made our move that was supposed to be hectic as light as possible.
Even brought covers to protect our delicate items, hang clothes that we didn’t want squeezing, covers for our carpets and brought boxes for us to put our light stuffs inside.
Can’t thank you all enough
Will 100 percent recommend

EXCELLENT. Calum, Adele, and the Team were AMAZING from start to finish, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them highly enough. All communications were answered quickly, the quote was competitive, and nothing was too much trouble. I have moved a couple of times in the past, and hands down, this is the best experience I have had. On moving day itself, the team packed up my home far quicker than I expected, which made the whole experience far easier and less stressful than anticipated. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Thank you all so much for such a brilliant service, it is very much appreciated.

I recently used Forest Removals to move from Cumbria to West Yorkshire. The service they provided was seamless from start to finish. I found them to be very helpful and responsive, throughout the quote, booking, and moving process.
The team was friendly, respectful and arrived on time, providing updates as to their location when our home was in transit, which I found provided peace of mind!
I can't recommend them highly enough. And no doubt I will use them again for a stress free move.
Well done team, it was an impeccable service throughout!!!!

Calum, Adele and the team were absolutely fantastic! We were moving from Sussex up to Lancashire so, logistically it was quite a challenge but it never seemed like too much trouble for Calum. Despite some awful traffic on the way up, which meant the van didn't get to the new house until about 8pm, they never rushed to get things in and still made time to reassemble the bed at almost 9pm!
The real heroics came after as our sofa wouldn't fit up the stairs and Calum and Adele were convinced they could winch it in through the first floor french doors. Sure enough, they were right (picture evidence provided)and they got the whole thing in just a couple of days after the initial move.
All in all, they were superstars, and would recommend them in a heartbeat! Thank you!
