Sirelo asks...

What makes your company stand out?

Our customers tell us it's our people. From over 600 reviews on our Trustpilot page, the overwhelming feedback is that our customers felt supported by the advice and guidance of our sales team and move managers in preparing for their move (which is really important with something as big as an international move!) and that the removals crews made move day a stress-free and enjoyable experience. You can also rest assured that we're a reputable company, pre-vetted by FIDI and the BAR.

What is your insurance policy? How do you deal with damaged items?

We offer comprehensive international insurance through our global insurance partner, with a 30-day claim time limit and full claims support from our move manager.

What is the best advice you would give to customers?

Compare removal quotes carefully - don't just look for the cheapest and make sure any hidden or potential additional charges are also accounted for. Make sure in addition to price that you're reviewing quality assurance (e.g. FIDI or BAR certification) as well as volume, service levels (packing, crating etc.) and transit times to make sure that you're getting the value you want from your investment.

The whole move was handled brilliantly from start to finish. If you are moving abroad this is your company, we had quite a complicated move to Italy, with only a small window for collection and delivery. Bournes did not miss a beat! We needed an external elevator do deliver everything to our new apartment and the Italian firm were exceptional. Had the whole container delivered and unpacked before 4pm!

The individuals that came to pick up was very professional, respectful and considerate. Customer support throughout the move was excellent 👍🏾. My shipment arrived, alibiet 6 months later, in good condition and delivered with care. I was disappointed that in that I was told whatever was disassembled will be put back together for me on arrival. Unfortunately, that was not the case.

Salesperson that came around to quote sold us on a 3 day plan which we arranged the rest of our move around. When the removal team turned up they told us they were working to a completely different plan, meaning we had to change things around with other suppliers at a great expense and inconvenience. They refused to engage with us on a partial refund.

Hi Mr Grant,
I am sorry to hear about the misunderstanding regarding your move plan for your move back in December 2022. I looked at the move details and it appears the move was completed over 3 days, but I'm sorry if there was some confusion.

As you can see from our other reviews this is not the typical experience of most of our customers. We try to make our move plans as clear as possible by setting them out in our quotations to clarify anything that has been discussed (which occasionally may vary from potential plans discussed during survey once we have calculated final resources). We do confirm once again in the booking confirmation, but I’m sorry to hear this wasn't clear to you on this occasion. Our goal is to make the move experience as smooth as possible and take on board all customer feedback when this hasn’t been the case so thank you for taking the time to share.

My experience with Bournes was excellent and would absolutely recommend them to anyone moving, whether within the UK or internationally. They were efficient, communicative, professional and everyone was friendly.

Alles in allem eine sehr gute Erfahrung. Ein Punkt Abzug weil es doch recht Aufwendig war die Versicherung zu organisieren
