We really appreciated the efforts of Burke Brothers staff Names removed by Sirelo] on there help in moving us in Sept from our home into a storage facility. They were prompt, helpful, polite and above all professional in their work ethic.
I can’t praise them enough, they were a credit to their company!

We found the service at planning and booking stages really excellent from the company, and the team on the day of the move, 5th October, with driver [name removed by Sirelo] and his team of 2 were first class . All of the day the guys were extremely polite,friendly,hard working and above all made us feel really relaxed on a day that is traditionally a very stressful day. Thankyou to the team and Thankyou Burke Bros. Best in class as far as we are concerned. Would definitely recommend.
Brilliant team , excellent company support.

No transportation to pick up my shipment for 3 weeks from the port, had to follow up for an update, then told due to transport limitations again it would be another 3 weeks until it can be delivered to my home in October. To top it off due to their unavailability they have had the cheek to ask for a port hire payment as it was stood there waiting so long or they won't ship the items. It's beyond belief how they can have the cheek to ask for this when its their fault. Only told its a national issue with haulage, well I'm afraid that's not the customers problem, how a delivery is made from A to B is the responsibility of the company!!

Made my move as stress free as possible! A big thank you to [names removed by Sirelo]. Every aspect of service was excellent- from [name removed by sirelo] initial visit to survey my home, discuss my needs and provide a quote to the removal day itself. My expectations were exceeded on every level. The team worked so hard, having to dismantle, reassemble and fit wardrobes and beds as well as move all my contents in less time than I expected.
Thank you too to the office staff for being so accommodating with move dates when my contract exchange was delayed.
I would highly recommend Burke Bros and will not hesitate to use them again in the future. Thank you very much!

Can't recommend this firm enough. From the initial quote visit to our moving day, the Burke Brothers team were brilliant. On the day the team had a great spirit and professionalism. They were polite and considerate all day long, especially when our 5 year old was too excited and wanted to help too. They made the day run very smoothly and took the stress out of our moving day. We would definitely use Burke Brothers again. Thanks to all of the the team.

Moved over two days because of the distance involved.
First, they were the only company to come out and do a survey of our property, other companies did it by phone or video link.
There is nothing we can criticise re this company. From quotation to the actual removal, this being the 11th and 12th May, they were communicative, helpful and professional in every aspect of the job.
Finally we had an expensive grand piano to move, which we were very concerned about. There was no need to worry, every man had training in the dismantling, moving and rebuilding the piano, and it actually ended up to be the less stressful part of the whole move.
We couldn’t recommend this company enough.

A good experience from start to finish. We had to change our date at short notice due to our buyers pulling out, which was handled quickly and with understanding.
We were not able to attend the loading of our removals, but we were kept informed through the day and then given a video walkthrough around the house at the end of the process to give us confidence that everything had been packed as required.
The onward delivery to our new home in France was managed particularly well, with our possessions being handled with exceptional care by the team as they unloaded and brought them into our property. The team was also polite, professional, courteous and very helpful.

Given 2 star because some of the removal men were hard working, pleasant and polite. Unfortunately not all of them were. One of them told us that the two single divans would not go up the stairs he left one in the lounge and another in the study. He also said that our kingsize divan which splits in two would not go up the stairs and requested permission to damage our walls in attempting this, however they got it up with no problem at all. We found boxes all over the house clearly marked garage but had been left in bedrooms . They were going to leave us with the four seat recliner settee still in two pieces and on there sides. There was no way that we could have moved them they were way too heavy I had to ask them to put it back together, which they did. However the kitchen table and dining table were left in pieces. The following day our sons carried the two single divans upstairs with no problem at all we actually filmed this and if Burke Bros want to use it for training purposes they are most welcome to it. Finally there was slight damage to front of one of the wardrobes so all in all for the cost of the service we were extremely disappointed. We rang the company to report this on Monday 8th March and were promised a call back, sadly over a week later we are still waiting. This speaks volumes THE COMPANY DOES NOT CARE!!! GO ELSEWHERE

December 2020 was a very difficult time to be moving for many reasons. I felt that Burke Bros were “on my side” and pulling out all the stops to help me get there. Every member of staff to whom I spoke was as helpful as circumstances permitted and the removal teams were both efficient and cheerful

Because the removal team didn’t have time to take the care needed for the situation and kept telling me they had no more room in the van even though there was more stuff to take. I felt they were putting pressure on me to leave some things behind from the garden. Box with pictures stacked high up in garage at new property, fell off and broke some glass and damaged some frames.
Some furniture had to be dismantled and they knew this at time of quote, but didn’t have any tools to do it.
Also they weren’t insured to take tv bracket from wall.

Thank you for your review. It’s not our intention to make our customers feel rushed. Our crew do have to execute moves in a timely manner, taking due care and attention, particularly in a move where the people moving into the property are doing so on the same day, as was the case on your moving day.
As the premises that you moved to were smaller than the property you vacated, the removal crew had to stack the boxes in order for the boxes to fit into the garage. We will write to you under separate cover regarding the damaged frames.
Our crews are allocated tools for dismantling. We will forward this feedback to our Transport Department to ensure all crews are fully equipped going forward.
Our crews are able to remove a TV from the bracket, but can’t remove wall fittings.

The size of the vehicle was decided by a manager, [name removed by Sirelo], who I was later told, had only managerial experience in this area. This was quite apparent when the guys packing were half way through and it became obvious that not all of our belongings would fit. This was rectified by the guys packing who decided that one would pack and bring over the rest the next day (on his lunch, no less). However, [name removed by Sirelo] phoned first thing, to ask a “favour”. Could we wait until the next day? Well, that was a definitive no.
As it was two chaps turned up, for which we were extremely grateful.
We would recommend the guys who packed and moved us. But management should perhaps try going out into the field before estimating vehicle sizes.

Thank you for your comments. When our surveyor conducted the moving survey, they calculated the volume of effects to be moved, that was as accurate as possible based on what you indicated that you wanted moving at that time. Our surveyor was informed that you would be de-cluttering and throwing out some of your possessions. We used that information to calculate the most appropriate sized vehicle to best service the job.

Everything was easy and no trouble for them! From the initial survey to the move day they were superb. Gary looked around our old house and provided a competitive price. The men turned up on moving day and they got everything packed before 10am. They were all very friendly, helpful and worked flat out for us. They took care with everything too. Nothing was broken or misplaced. Everything was in the new house by 4pm. We couldn't be happier with the moving lads or your service throughout. Will definitely recommend them to anyone and will use them in the future.

I used Burke Brothers to move from the Wolverhampton to Milford Haven in Pembrokeshire (West Wales) on 21st / 22nd July. The two lads who did the removing, etc were [names removed by Sirelo].
I have nothing but absolute praise for the way in which the whole move (from first contact with [name removed by Sirelo] in the office to final delivery) was been handled. Nothing but the highest professionalism from everyone involved. I was at the time very stressed about the whole operation. Thanks to Burke Brothers expertise it was made to be very stress free.
It was not an easy move as the whole of my goods were not packed correctly, labelled or in any coherent order for moving. [names removed by Sirelo] were magnificent throughout.
I have no hesitation at all in recommending Burke Brothers.

We booked this company a month ahead of our moving date and completed all the necessary paperwork. We kept them informed at all stages and then confirmed the date (which was unchanged) at the point of exchange of contracts, 2 weeks in advance. We were then told that they had taken another booking the previous day and could not longer help us. My wife (who took the call) was upset and pleaded with them to help in some way, but they did not even have the courtesy to call back for another week (when they could still not assist) and at no stage was there even an hint of an apology. Do not trust these people.

Thank you for your feedback.
A month ahead of the moving date, the move had not been booked with us; neither as a provisional booking or as a confirmed booking. You had mentioned you were looking to move at the end of the month but at no time asked to reserve a vehicle and crew.
We are happy to take provisional bookings and reserve vans for as long as possible for customers to liaise with their solicitors.
At this time of year, and particularly with the current house market demand, moving companies require as much notice of a confirmed booking as possible to be able to allocate resources to complete moves efficiently. We hope you understand, therefore, that we were unable to accept the booking, when you did contact us to book with short notice.

At this time of year, and particularly with the current house market demand, moving companies require as much notice of a confirmed booking as possible to be able to allocate resources to complete moves efficiently. We hope you understand, therefore, that we were unable to accept the booking, when you did contact us to book with short notice.

Very impressed by Mr [name removed by Sirelo], so polite & respectful. Explained how the company worked & described what would happen on the moving days. When contacting the office, staff always polite & did what they said they would do.
Felt a little ignored as lockdown happened but understand this was an unprecedented situation.
On the moving days it was very wet, the crew did not protect any floor coverings of the house we were leaving. They did however provide protection for the Floors of the new property. Crew were polite & respectful. Seemed a little rushed at the end of the second day.
Transportation for the classic was excellent.

The three chaps were nice, very hard working and extremely consciousness of our situation. We have a one year old and the whole house needed packing up. They were thorough, took great care of all our belongings as if they were their own. The speed in which they work (particularly when the competition was delayed by and we didn't get the keys for 3 hours) was incredible. I could not have wished for 3 better guys to do the work. My wife actually burst into tears when she thanked them and that was because the sheer amount of stress they had taken away form us was immeasurable.

The people involved were all lovely - super polite, helpful and efficient. The quote was good, and the admin/paperwork side of it all was good too. They held dates for us, responded to emails quickly and were patient with us changing the move date more than once. However, they didn't budget big enough vans for the job and it was a 2-day move and the men left too early on day 1 so day 2 was crazy. They had to send one of the vans back to our old house to pick up another load. We weren't out of our old house on time because there was too much to do on day 2. It was bad planning, of capacity to move and the workload required. They also lost part of a wardrobe they were due to rebuild at the new house. To their credit, when I'd found the part, they did come back and rebuild it for me.

Thank you for your comments
We apologise for the crew having to leave early on the first day, this was due to the driver of the crew having a family emergency. We further apologies this wasn’t conveyed to you at the time, but as you will appreciate our main concern was getting the driver back to be with their family. As the majority of packing had been carried out, we anticipated this would take a short time to complete on the following morning, and thus maintaining the original schedule. However, as the crew had to leave the property as a matter of urgency they had not fully accessed the amount of remaining packing, which lead to a slight delay in the premises been vacated.
The correct manpower and vehicles had been resourced to the move. However, as the driver was not able to return to work on the second day of the move, due to the ongoing family emergency, and not having a spare driver qualified to drive an 18 ton vehicle, we had no alternative but to consign a slightly smaller v ehicle. However, we appreciate this did have a knock on effect of the crew having to return to collect a few items.
I trust you will appreciate that at all times we worked with your best interests at heart, and I am sure if it wasn’t for the unforeseen circumstance occurring you would have been impressed with our service.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your kind praises where due and only sorry that in this instance our services were not to your expectations.

Burke Bros took time to understand fully our requirements (multi-phase), offered choices to allow us (jointly) to settle on planned dates and phases of the overall move. The employees who collected our effects from two different locations and who subsequently delivered those effects to the other end of the country (after temporarily holding them in storage for a short period) were punctual, friendly, efficient and willing to go that 'extra mile' to ensure that the move went as smoothly and timely as we could have wished for. We have used Burke Bros before and, without hesitation, would use them again.

Unfortunately our experience was very poor. Although the team of removal guys were pleasant and helpful we were not impressed with the service. In order to make life easier for ourselves we requested Burke Bros pack for us. We have used this service with other companies before, however your team clearly need training in this aspect. It would appear that the theory behind their packing was to cram as many items as possible into each box, knowing full well that items would be stored for a short while in our garage therefore meaning the boxes are ridiculously heavy to pick up and move and no care has been taken with items such as clothing and curtains which were rammed into boxes and therefore screwed up quite badly. Boxes have simple been labelled “kitchen” or “garage” with no attempt to describe what was in them. Therefore in order to locate any items several boxes have to be opened and searched through. Some items were not packed carefully resulting in a picture frame being cracked and despite this being highlighted and an email sent to the company, no response or offer of compensation has been made. One mattress was wrapped and protected on the packing day but when the team came to load the next day, they did not have any packing / wrapping materials, so another mattress went on the lorry unprotected. Although a very nice chap, [Name removed by Sirelo], who came to quote did not allow enough room for everything and therefore we had to wait for another lorry to finish loading all the items, even though they had been crammed into boxes very tightly.
There were issues on arrival at our new home as the occupiers hadn’t moved out, this did result in Burke Bros having to be flexible and return the next day but we did pay extra for this service.

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear that your experience of moving with us did not meet your expectations.
All of our packing crews are trained to BAR standards and part of their training dictates that the boxes should be filled to capacity to reduce possible damage to the contents of the box during transit as partly empty boxes will allow too much movements of the possessions. Boxes also need to be filled to capacity to reduce the chance of them collapsing once they are stacked in transit and in storage.
Adequate resources were quoted for by our surveyor and these resources were provided during the moving days to complete the move to specification.
Mattresses should be wrapped for protection before loading onto our vehicles and we apologise if a mattress was moved without this procedure being carried out, but mattresses are loaded onto vehicles in a manner that ensures their protection during transit.
We use professional grade packing boxes onto which the names of the rooms are overlaid. Our crews tick the relevant room name to correlate with the contents. We apologise if this procedure has not enabled you to unpack efficiently and we take this feedback on board.

The other half was loaded the next day at about 8am. They brought the mattress covers and even helped seal a few opened boxes. Not a single scratch to my walls during moving out/in. They were patiently waiting for us when we were having the keys handover and home demonstration as we moved into our new built home. Excellent movers.

We are sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with the service you received from us.
The quote issued covered all effects we understood you wished to move based on the initial survey conducted by our surveyor and correspondence with us prior to the moving day.
We were instructed only the contents of the shed were to be moved. However, during the move the crew were instructed to dismantle the shed and transfer to the new property.
Had we been advised of the requirement to dismantle the shed in advance, we could have added additional manpower.
The quote we provided for moving the contents of the house, shed and garden went smoothly and according to plan and didn’t require additional crew members.

We required a piano taking from a first story flat and moving upstairs to a new house. 4 people turned up for the removal and they were very professional, they all knew exactly what they were doing and they took all the necessary steps to ensure it was moved correctly but also safely. The piano was also wrapped in blankets to ensure no damage to the piano or the surroundings.
The removal was very quick and only took a couple of hours, which also included a 20 minute drive to our new house.
I would recommend Burke Bros to anyone who requires a removal service.

Packing was provided and the Packer seemed to be efficient and speedy. The actual move on the following day not so. The men couldn’t get 3 small solid wooden wardrobes downstairs though they had previously been taken up by my 87 yr old father. Had to live out of boxes for clothes for 3 weeks because of this until I could receive inferior replacements which cost me over £1000 a cost that I had not accounted for. When boxes were eventually emptied it was discovered that 3 bottles of Moët champagne was missing. Also found missing were 2 small oil paintings. Luckily I was able to contact the person who had purchased my house and they were eventually found. Although I haven’t received them yet I have been told that they will be returned to me at the weekend. Moving home is stressful anyway but the loss of 3 good wardrobes in excellent condition plus’s the realisation that Champaign and paintings were also missing contributed to further stress, anxiety and extreme disappointment
I would have recomm. ended but it has cost me a lot of money for inferior replacements

We are sorry to hear that the removal service you received did not meet your expectations.
The removal crew employed on the move, collectively, have in excess of 50 years’ experience of conducting house moves. The crew did endeavour to manoeuvre the wardrobes through the confines of the stairway and doorway; utilising a number of different techniques to best manoeuvre the wardrobes. Unfortunately, the wardrobes would not to fit through the space in a fully constructed form. As you are aware, the wardrobes are glued and we can not dismantle glued wardrobes as part of our moving service due to the likelihood of splintering and damage being caused to the furniture.
We are pleased that you are now in receipt of the missing items.
Mr Burke will be writing to you under separate cover and including an insurance claim form in respect of the missing champagne bottles, if you are still unable to locate the bottles in the interim.

We used the packing service and Burke Bros totally took away the stress of moving house. They were hard working, efficient and thorough. The guys were also really pleasant to deal with and we couldn’t fault them.
Brilliant service

We used Burke Bros last week for a local move. The whole move went perfectly and despite a long delay due to problems with the Solicitors and completion, everything was moved into the new house quickly and efficiently. The team were professional, friendly and we could not have asked for more. I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

The company sent a Sales person to look at my belongings and he emailed a Quote, he explained that their Removal men were professionals and could remove the door or it's handles if necessary to get the large 3 seater settee out. The 3 Removal men were very polite and nothing was too much trouble for them. They enjoyed their job, and worked well together they all had a good rapport, and I felt in they were very professional and quick.
They chopped up the back of the large 3 seater settee to remove it from the old premises and then they disposed if it at their site.
They gave a detailed and comprehensive Quote, which was easily best value compared to other quotes I was given
I rather hoped to see [name removed by Sirelo] Sales, on my move day to say thanks!
I'm ok thank you, I was very pleased with Burke Brothers removals

[names removed by Sirelo] were amazing from start to finish! They were early to the old house, friendly and efficient and took great care of our belongings. The move was really smooth from start to finish, they were really capable, even with a narrow, tricky first house. The other end was just as great, they placed everything where we asked and weren’t impatient when I changed my mind! We shared lots of laughs and I felt really confident in their ability. Thanks so much [names removed by Sirelo], you made the day completely stressless! :-)

Burke Bros. provided a fantastic service with my move to Ilkeston from Newcastle-under-Lyme.
The firm I had originally contracted were unable to do this date and, at very short notice, [name removed by Sirelo] managed to arrange a removal team for me. He was very efficient and professional throughout.
On the day the removal team [names removed by Sirelo] were exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble and their good humour meant that what could have been quite a stressful day ended up being good fun!
I have already recommended Burke Bros. to friends who are moving in the next few months.

From the first visit for a quotation to the end of our move we were put at ease and were given a lot of advice and tips. They were very professional and due to the complications of our move we were looked after and felt our stress levels were minimised. The staff who moved us were polite and couldn't do enough for us. They may have been a little more on the expensive side but we felt our possessions were more important than the difference in the money.

Turned up on time, the guys were really friendly and professional. They took the beds down and put them back up the other end which was very important to us as we have 2 small children. The price was really good too and loved that they had wardrobe boxes to put our clothes in on hangers which made it really easy unloading the other end and ment we didn't have to fold everything and risk getting it creased.
Friendly staff who are efficient
Very good value for money

The removal men arrived on time, they were extremely professional, friendly, respectful and courteous and took great care in moving the items that had a very high sentimental value to me. They went the extra mile by overcoming a problem of a sofa not fitting through a standard door. Nothing was too much trouble. They drove very carefully. They stacked the furniture in my garage for me as it was being stored and were very careful using their experience in how to place each item so that nothing was damaged. I cannot praise them highly enough. I would definately reccomend them and use them again.

Very professional throughout.

We based the move on the volume that was pre-booked. Sometimes the volume does exceed the pre-booked space. We can only work with the list that was supplied to us and from an average dimensions guide.
We apologise if your expectations have not been met. The feedback is appreciated and will help us to keep improving.

I have nothing but praise for Burke Bros. We were let down by a previous company, so we contacted Burke Bros, with only one weeks notice and they moved us out without a problem at there busiest time. The removal men laid mats through the house and didn't put a mark on any walls. Being a new house the stairs are tight but everything came out without a problem. Special thanks to Jackie in the office, who answered all questions and put us at ease, she made moving alot less stressful. Nothing was to much trouble and felt you were being well looked after. We would recommend Burke Bros to anyone and we've already recommended to friends that are moving out soon.
Professional, efficient and a feeling that they care.
Removal men are clean, tidy and careful

From start to finish communication was excellent, no question was too much and answers and problem solving always came very quickly. The company appeared to care about my family and paid attention to detail. Everyone I came into contact with from end to end was professional and helpful.
The packing team were fantastic, organised, so fast and ever professional. If it mattered to me it mattered to them. I wouldn't use any other company in the future.
