Over fifty years ago Peter & Marjorie Edwards quit their day jobs and started their own removals business. As a young couple with two young boys on the scene this was not a decision to be taken lightly, but it was something they were determined to do. The removals industry was no stranger to them. Peter had worked for his father and elder brother at W.J Edwards Removals and Marjorie used to run their removals office.
As Marjorie explains, life was much simpler in those days because you either had a small removal which cost 3 or a large removal which cost 5! Since the Edwards name was already being used, Peter and Marjorie plumped for Stephens as the company name, after their eldest son. Sheer hard work and determination saw the company through the difficult early years.

Services
A long established removals company specialising in house moves and office relocations in the UK, Europe and Overseas. Whatever your removal - whether it is simply moving house, relocating your business and staff, requiring international shipping or needing secure storage - you can be assured of Stephens Removals attention to detail and high quality of service.
As soon as you know you are going to be relocating, don't leave this to the last minute. We are happy to visit you as soon as you would like and our quotations are valid for up to 3 months. To provide an accurate written quotation we would always recommend that our surveyor visits you to ascertain exactly what you have to be moved and to go through all of your requirements with you.
With more than 50 years experience in house removals we have the knowledge and expertise to make sure your move day runs like clockwork! When people start thinking about how to move their belongings to their new home the debate about doing it themselves or using the services of a 'man with a van' often comes up.
Moving home can be one of the most exciting events in your life, and one of the most stressful. Experience has taught us that some customers like to take an active part in their removal and pack themselves, and others prefer to sit back and let the professionals do the work. Stephens Removals offer a range of packing services, from handling entire households to partial services, such as your fragile china and glassware.
Stephens Removals has been relocating people and assets for more than 50 years and in that time we've learned a thing or two about business relocations. Whether it's relocating your entire operation internationally to another part of the world or moving a single department to the next floor, a successful move always hinges on just one thing - meticulous planning.

Stephens were brilliant. We would highly recommend them. Super friendly and helpful - and very patient with our long list of questions! Nothing was too much of a problem and everyone that we had the pleasure to deal with was brilliant. The removal team were fantastic - really positive, an amazing can-do attitude and they made what could have… been a stressful day a really good experience. Our belongings had to go into storage for a while in between moving out and moving in, but this process was really well managed, and despite total uncertainty as to our move date, the Stephens team were

Just fantastic from the process of the guy that quoted us to the team that moved us. Really professional and kept the day fun, despite key pick up being so late! They threw all of their resources in and I would recommend them to all of my friends. We're so pleased they were available to help us move.

They are so professional. And have thought the moving process from the perspective of the customer- so much so that they even have a fabulous deal on boxes! The office staff are helpful and efficient- Especially Tracy! The people doing the moving are friendly, efficient, quick and helpful, they arrive on time having called before and do everything… they can to make the move less stressful. They tidy up afterwards and leave no reason to regret employing the company. No possessions were broken or damaged. A really splendid moving experience... I'd employ them again without hesitation.

What a fantastic moving house experience. From initial survey to booking to actual move day the staff were superb. Dean, Aaron & Will were so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We even got a back up team… to help move into our new home! The office girls were brilliant too with great communication. Totally recommend Stephens.

We moved on the 20th November 2020. AJ and the boys were amazing with all of the families possessions. They took down wardrobes and beds and then reassembled them the other end perfectly. All throughout the day the boys never stopped and worked so so hard.
Highly recommend Stephens for any removal.
Top job 👌👌👌👌👌

Fantastic value for money. We paid for the full disassembly, reassembly and packing service. Over the 2 days of work Bob, Phil and Aaron were brilliant. Everything was done efficiently and professionally. I would look nowhere else if I move again or if am asked to recommend from a friend. Spectacular service

Fantastic value. So good in fact, that I half expected mediocre quality. Nothing but high praise for Lauren and Tracy in the prep stage and on the day itself Phil and crew were nothing short of epic! Fantastic spirit, always smiling and couldn’t do enough for us, even 8 hours into the job! Genuinely above and beyond our expectations. Thankyou!

We moved from Luton to East Sussex and we had one of their large vans full up with our house contents, Stephens were professional throughout and ensured that we had a very smooth move to our new house. Thanks to the team, stress levels were kept to a minimum! Everything was packed correctly to ensure nothing was damaged. Really pleased that we chose Stephens

Breath-takingly rude, arrogant, and unprofessional in my opinion. I will never EVER use this removal firm again. I would advise you to go elsewhere too. Seriously, go ANYWHERE else. Any other company would have to be better than these people who treat the customer with utter contempt and hostility. I have given them one star simply because this website requires it. If it were up to me, though, they would be awarded negative points. It is simply inexcusable for any organisation purporting to offer a certain level of customer service to act in such bad faith as these people have done with me. A huge

We couldn’t be more pleased we entrusted our move to Stephens. The 3 guys who did the work over two snowy, frozen days, worked tirelessly to ensure our entire house was packed and moved without incident. Whenever there was an issue, such as getting a large sofa through a small door, they found a solution! Nothing was too much trouble.Thank you especially to AJ, Lee and Nathan!
