Always easy to talk-to and needful of our wide-ranging requirements

The house belonged to our late aunt and we needed it clearing ahead of its sale. The fact we live in Newcastle added to the stress of the clearance being carried out both professionally and sympathetically. Pete arrived promptly and, together with Harley, lived up to all our expectations. Always easy to talk-to and needful of our wide-ranging requirements, the work was completed well within our tight schedule and to the quoted price. We have no hesitation in recommending Friendly Pete to anyone looking for support in carrying out this arduous task.

Difficult business move made easy

From our first contact with Pete, it was clear that he was professional and honest in his approach to his work - from the initial quote, following up on access and parking availability, ensuring that our belongings were transported safely and making sure that he was able to work around our tight time schedule.

Our business is large and it was a complex move to say the least! But Pete was confident that his team could get it done, which relieved our stress throughout the whole process.

Access from the old premises was limited resulting in his team having to carry everything out to the road, which they undertook with great positivity and we felt that everything was under control at all times.

The majority of our belongings were bulky and heavy with some also being delicate, but Pete and his team handled everything with the same care and secured things so well that we knew it was protected and would arrive at the new premises safely.

Due to space restrictions at the new premises, the business needed to be moved in multiple stages, which Pete was able to accommodate.

Cannot recommend him and his wonderful team enough!

Thank you.

Friendly Pete and his guys were absolutely brilliant. They arrived on time. They were very friendly polite and professional. They were very helpful. They were very careful with our belongings. They covered sofas and mattresses and they put the beds together. I would highly recommend them and will be using them again when I move next time

Quick and friendly service

We needed to move a single piece of heavy furniture from a private home to a nursing home nearby. We were recommended Pete who was indeed friendly and helpful! He and his team were able to do this job quickly for us at a reasonable price.

Three moves and counting :)

Pete moved me for the third time in 4 years today and he knows he’s already lined up for my next move in however many years! He makes it a smooth experience and super reassuring the whole time from start to finish. Our house purchase had many delays so stress levels have been high but Pete was super patient and managed to squeeze us in short notice. Thanks so much again to Pete and team for another fab move!

Pete and his team went way above and beyond

Pete and his team went way above and beyond to help us move our business. Pete planned the move with us beforehand, and understood the logistical complexities of moving into our new space. The job was done in very good time, and we appreciated the thoughtfulness and careful handling throughout.
