Our business began just after the First World War back in 1918 when a young George William Twilley began carrying out removals. George had begun his working life as a greengrocer which involved very early starts to transport the fruit and veg to his shop. This meant his van was left idle for the rest of the day, and so, to take advantage of this, he began his removals business to keep the van working for the rest of the day.
After the Second World War George's son, Stanley Charles Twilley, left the Royal Engineers and joined the family business. This allowed George the opportunity to retire and Stanley and his wife Lorna took over the business. By now the reputation of the business and demand for its removals service persuaded Stanley and Lorna to focus on removals and they moved away from the greengrocery side.

Services
We will send you a no-obligation estimate of our removal services. This is designed to be a rough guide of expected costs. Once you have received the estimate, we can arrange a visit of our expert surveyor to your location or via online Video Survey. We will discuss the process of your moving day and any other additional request you may have.
We'd love to help you move home! The first step for most clients is to call us and arrange for our surveyor to visit you. We will then get a quoted emailed to you swiftly. Once you have received your quotation please call us to secure the date and complete the booking over the phone. Please remember that we book clients on a first come first served basis and we can sometimes be booked up 2 - 3 weeks in advance during peak times of the year.
Book a FREE survey and get a no-obligation quote on your office or commercial relocation project. Our expert surveyor will visit your premises to discuss with you the logistics of your business relocation and explain what is involved. After the survey, you will receive a no-obligation quote which you can approve over the phone or by email.
If you are moving home or commercial premises, you may need hassle-free storage solutions. We provide collections across London and help to pack and transport it to our secure warehouse in North London. Our storage service is efficient and cost effective as, in most cases, we can bring your storage container directly to you.
If you are planning to move home or office, you may decide to ask us to pack for you. We can pack the entire move or perhaps just part of the move for you. For example, many clients ask us to pack their fragile items. When you ask us to pack for you we include the cost of the quality packing materials in the quote.

Wasted my time quoting for a job on Thursday only to tell me they could not do it on Friday because "we have a large local authority job on that week". This was despite knowing my move date from the outset, told again on Wednesday when they visited to estimate, and again on Thursday when I clarified the quote and despite their office actually closing on Thursday evening for Christmas.
Entirely impossible that this job materialised between me speaking to them late on Thursday and calling to pay on Friday at 10am (when their office was technically closed).
I can't believe that they didn't know
