I used Smartmove's packing, moving and storage services to move within Bristol.. The service was fantastic from start to finish. I phoned the office staff many times in the stressful months before the move. They were always professional, friendly, patient, sympathetic and helpful. Having a reserved slot in the diary which was moved forward as required worked well. The teams who packed, moved and dealt with stored items were efficient, respectful and polite. One item was slightly damaged, however, Smartmove kindly arranged for it to be repaired. I highly recommend Smartmove.

My second time using SmartMove for a home move, and both times the experience has been absolutely amazing. We had Jim, Jo, and Luke pack and move our 2 bed flat across the city and service was friendly, professional and speedy. Highly recommend to anyone needing a packing and moving service.

What a breath of fresh air! Everyone at SmartMove couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. They were professional, polite and made our move much less stressful than it could have been. The move team on the day were a delight to deal with and I have no hesitation in recommending them for your next home move.

Justine is absolutely amazing. We had to move our move date several times but Justine and the team were understanding throughout.
The debacle with the stamp duty increase made everything a frantic mess come march 2025 but Justine remained calm throughout. If I can bring myself to move again, I will be using smart move to do so.

We were recommended Smart Move by a friend, they came out to quote and were bang on what we were expecting (and definitely competitive with our comps). Reading the reviews sealed the deal really.
We had the full packing and moving service, taking place over 2 days, wow we were so impressed. All the team worked so hard and navigated the rain, the small lane behind the house and everything else move day throws up amazingly. They were so friendly and helpful too, from the quote and booking right up to collecting the boxes and wrap. So impressed. 100% recommended!

Felt like family moving us! I cannot recommend this company enough. We had the full packaging service and removal.
Full packing - excellently done - not one breakage. Team were very respectful of our belongings, packed all with real care. Labelling was great; really helpful with placing in the right rooms - loved the box labelled “kitchen drawer of doom”!
Removals following day. Same team (which was reassuring) plus one. Again, I could not fault. No pressure felt, very professional. Excellent manoeuvring and some serious skills with that large van, down a tiny drive!
Team worked so hard.

Smartmove recently helped us (full packing and removal service) with our family housemove just in time for Christmas. The whole experience was great from start to finish. The initial visit, the interaction with the office team, to the chaps doing our packing and moving (thanks Jonny, Harry, Ollie, Henry & Charlie!). We would highly recommend Smartmove to anyone looking for a removals company, they made what was quite a stressful time into a pleasant experience.

I can't say enough of Smart Removals. They were great, from start to finish. With two little kids in tow, we were worried about moving house, but they sorted us. They worked incredibly hard, didn't break anything (nothing!) and their confidence gave us confidence on a nerve wracking day. and they made the day, actually, quite fun!
I also have to say I was VERY IMPRESSED by Johnny's tessellation: the truck was incredibly well packed.
So yes, employ them, you won't regret it.

Thank you for everything Smartmove . Dispite suddenly having a gap between moving out and moving in you were completely flexible and not only did you lovingly and securely store all my worldly goods but even more important you also kept my 50+ garden plants alive and thriving in what was the only bit of summer we had . Thankyou for being calm , caring , reliable and totally professional from start to finish .

Thank you so much to the guys at Smart Move for all of their hard work helping me and my partner move house! I found moving quite overwhelming but as soon as they arrived I felt like I was in good hands. The guys were lovely, so helpful and we generally had a super positive day. All furniture was well looked after.
I also accidentally locked us out of the new house…. Well done me! And they were so patient and happy to wait which I hugely appreciated.
Thank you! I will certainly use you guys again next time I move and I have recommended you to friends and family.
Thanks!

What an amazing team! The support and service from everyone was fantastic! Communication was excellent throughout. We had the moving and packing service. The team were kind and efficient and we felt like our belongings were in safe hands. Moving house is stressful and emotional but we were expertly looked after by Smartmove throughout the whole process. I can’t thank you enough!!

I absolutely cannot fault a thing about this company. From the initial visit, to the ladies in the office to finally the team on the day, polite, caring and professional. We were downsizing after 20 years and it was big for us emotionally. The team really understood that and made us feel so at ease and comfortable. They also did remarkably well at pack8ng it all up and rhen getting it all in with care and efficiency. Lovely people who work very hard. Thankyiu., Emma and Gary

Absolutely outstanding, I cannot recommend Smartmove highly enough. My third move with them, this time we had both the packing and moving service for our family home. Efficient, kind, polite, experts who made the whole move feel calm and took a way any worries we had. As parents to young kids moving the week before Christmas we were apprehensive but the team were amazing. Reeve, Jo, James & James you are total legends. Thank you Justine you are doing a wonderful job and we are super grateful.

Absolute legends! Helped me with a move in St George, BS5, Bristol. These guys were amazing all the way through from quote to move. The office team and especially Jen were so flexible and understanding when move dates kept shifting. The removal team on the day were incredible - calm, friendly, patient and careful with all of the stuff. They made what could have been a really stressful day stress-free. Could not recommend them more highly. Thank you so much Smartmove!

Superb in every way. Smartmove provided an efficient and careful packing service for a full day beforehand. We had a lot of stuff, and some items that were heavy and difficult to move, but they tackled it all without hesitation. Everything was transported safely. On move day they worked into the evening to get all of our stuff in, and they were still smiling at the end. I cannot fault Smartmove, and will recommend to everybody I know.
