So whether you are moving locally or nationally, from a small flat to a large stately home you can rely on us to carry out your removal in a personal, professional and friendly manner.
We are able to offer a range of services to complement our basic removal service. These start with the supply of a wide variety of packing materials should you wish to pack up your own goods. Alternatively we offer a well priced professional packing service where our team will come to your property to prepare your goods for removal.
Here at F Smith & Son, our priority is to offer a quality, reliable and personal storage service to all of our clients. When considering using storage facilities, it is also important to consider how you are going to get the goods to the store and delivered to their end destination.
At F Smith & Son the handling of your goods is of utmost importance to us. Unfortunately it is not possible to eliminate all of the risks that are associated to a removal. For this reason, we are able to arrange for a specialist removals insurance to be in place whilst we are in possession of your goods.

By employing experienced personnel in the art of European Removals we have been refining our removal techniques through training and the use of modern equipment, enabling us to meet our high standards set.

I’ve had a storage open here for about a year and a half. Needed to come a few times to pick up various things. The staff is amazing, super friendly, helpful, professional. If I ever need storage again, I would go out of my way to use them!

Everything was done professionally, efficiently and at a good price. Couldn't fault their service even though I repeatedly changed the moving date.

We were moving quite a distance, but all went to plan. The packers the day before were professional and efficient (and patient when I needed something out of one of the packed boxes) and we had plenty of people to load the van on moving day. The only item that was broken was completely my fault when I was unpacking. I would 100% recommend them.

We used F Smith & Sons to relocate from West Wickham to Bognor Regis and asked for a packing and removal service. We had a wonderful experience, the team (which included a very hands on boss!) arrived on Monday to pack the house, garage, sheds and garden and the same continued with us through to Thursday when they unloaded the main part of our home by 1pm. It was so nice to have the same staff members with us through our journey who were very considerate, helpful, careful, respectful with a good sense of fun but with the upmost professionalism. We would highly recommend, well done Ian, Nathaniel

Smiths relied on me "the client" to send pics of items to be moved, not being a estimator i underestimated the amount to be moved but luckily got a bigger van or my move would not have happened!!! from a 450 cu ft to a 800 cu ft(moving from a 3 storey 4 bed house), then a old white battered van turned up with only "2" guys to move everything!... TWO blokes to empty a 3 storey house and then unload...I helped the guys who were great and very hard working to load and unload otherwise they would have been knackered at the end of it. I feel their should have been at least 3 guys there, (my daughter

A very professional team, disciplined to chore and conditioned with patience for challenging tasks.
However, they have loads of room for improvement especially in assembling items at destination. Felt like few crew members had lack of experience and ended up assembling hurriedly and leaving flat pack furniture lose and vulnerable to damage.

F Smith and Son provided a seamless service in planning and executing our move out of London. Their help and support gave us peace of mind that the day would be stress free. Movers on the day were efficient and friendly. We would recommend to anyone moving in the future.

F. Smith and Son were excellent in their approach to the move. They were very careful with initial surveys and estimates -- and were able to adjust as circumstances changed. The home to be moved was in the UK. I was in the USA. But it was easy to communicate and set up the contract. They were very understanding as the completion date moved away, week after week, until finally it was time to do it. They adjusted their approach to the circumstances they found, as they worked their way through the packing of our flat. All was done very professionally, and the goods were delivered without a hitch to

Thank you, F Smith & Sons, for your personal service and attention to detail in helping us sort our move from London. You were incredibly helpful, punctual in getting back to us and your pricing was very competitive. I would recommend your services in a heartbeat.

Couldn't have asked for a better removal firm. From quote to moving day, everything was perfect. The whole team clearly cares about their work and enjoys what they do. They answered questions quickly, were polite and professional in all communications and removers Brian and Ash really did take all the stress away on moving day. We never thought it could be as easy as they made it! Brilliant company, would definitely use again and recommend without any hesitation.

This was no ordinary removals booking..... The team collected and delivered 5 fragile 5 ft letters to give our venue for a Charity Ball the WOW factor. Then when it was all over they collected and returned them to the supplier.....
Nothing was too much trouble and I highly recommend this company.

The removals guys on the day were fantastic, although it was the people in the office who were not as helpful I asked for boxes to be included in the package which they said they could do then after I'd booked they told me all they can do is give me second hand boxes which j had to pick up myself and later found to have maggots in them. They were also meant to deliver cones the day before to reserve a space for the van then was told they wouldn't do that either there super nice until you book and give them money then it's a different story
