From the first point of contact to the final goodbye Luckes Removals were professional, friendly, and filled us with confidence. John and Mark were an amazing hands-on team, and everyone one we came into contact with were equally as brilliant......they make you feel as though you are important with everything they do. Ours was not a straight forward move but Luckes were there to support us at every step. Thanks again Luckes.

Having used Luckes and Son on previous occasions they are my go to at any sign of a house move. I cannot fault them: the team who helped me and my family move house in August were absolutely second to none. They packed and cleared the entire house on the Monday and Tuesday, and had us in by the Thursday evening. What's more: we had emptied all the boxes by the following Tuesday, and they came and collected them immediately.
A potentially stressful experience ended up being totally relaxed (and rather fun one - I know I know!) - fortunately my neighbour made them cookies too, so along with the copious cups of tea and coffee we were all happy! Thank you Luckes Removals - Im hopeful that we won't need you again for a long time, but I know who to call if we do. And I shall continue to recommend you...

I was very pleased with the service provided by Luckes. Wendy in the office was very helpful and the team on the day were friendly and well-organised. They persisted with getting a very awkward piece of furniture up a tight staircase and won through in the end. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company to others.

Luckes were used for a recent move in Swindon. The guys arrived promptly, introduced themselves, made preparations and started loading up. Everything was delivered in the same condition it left in a timely manner, we were completely moved in only a short time. Perfect service and would not hesitate to use again in the future.
