Friendly staff, polite and courteous. Nothing is too much trouble. Were able to get us out of trouble after another removal company let us down at short notice. Very appreciative of our efforts... See more

Very nice drivers travelling in sweltering conditions provided excellent service delivering from London to Paris. All boxes and furniture arrived in perfect condition and were brought upstairs carefully so as not to damage anything.
Good communication before arrival also helped me to schedule my day around the delivery.
Thanks to Jayne, Rodney and Dan.

Abels recently packed our 6+ bedroom home in Central London for our upcoming International move and I couldn't recommend the team more highly. Incredibly considerate, careful, thorough and professional. If you are moving I would put these guys on the top of your list to use! We have moved many times and Abels have been the best. Highly recommend Russel, Phil and the team.

Excellent professional staff. There were some difficulties moving in but the guys dealt with things really well. From Paul's professional estimate to Nicola's co-ordination the whole experience was excellent. Don't use man and van outfits, use Abels.

Quick, very helpful response to my need for a grandfather clock to be moved within 48 hours. Luke was very knowledgeable about clocks, took it apart and reassembled it very carefully with no damage and was most helpful in assisting either fixing it to the wall.

We wanted to move furniture and household boxes from Italy to Uk. The service in Italy and Uk was brilliant, the furniture was exceptionally well packed and everything arrived in perfect condition. The pickup and delivery drivers were delightful and professional. Would highly recommend this company.

We have used Abels for more than 20yrs now, they have moved us around london, abroad and back.
They are a fantastic team from organising the move with the people in the office to the removal team, highly professional, kind, items cared for, they make moving fun, I wouldn't use anyone else. Highly recommend.

We were extremely happy with the service we had for our move. The whole operation was carried out in a very professional manner, from the initial quote through to unloading at our new house. The removals team worked tirelessly for the two days of the move, and we would certainly recommend

Brilliant! Looked after from start to finish, excellent service, nothing too much trouble - ever so friendly and went above and beyond. Looked after our belongings and took great care around both properties - If, IF, we ever move again we would definitely use them again. Very highly recommended

Leaving this review to highlight the great job done by Abels.
The move to my new home was done in a very professional way, and stress free.
I paid for the packing service and I was very happy with the way the packing was done, all items moved were really well protected.
The crew was very polite and friendly.
Anyone planning to move home, you would be in a very safe pair of hands working with Abels, I highly recommend it.

Abel's staff were fantastic throughout the process. responsive, friendly and so helpful they made what would usually be a very stressful process feel easy. 0 issues at customs as the brokers at Abel's sorted everything really well and were quick to inform me of additional required paperwork and assisted me well when I wasn't sure what to provide. Delivery arrived promptly and I didn't have to lift a finger. Both office and delivery staff are really friendly helpful and patient.
There was some damage to a piece of furniture and Abel's responded very quickly with necessary paperwork and assistance to make an insurance claim (cannot comment on insurance process at this time but so far very easy).

Care of our property both in the moving and storage. Exceptional help in re-assembling large items like clocks and in particular a big display cabinet. Negotiating a difficult entrance. In short, a happy and helpful team.
