Phil and Anthony did a fantastic removal job for me last week. They were punctual, worked very hard and the whole move was very smooth! Excellent rates and service and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Botes Removals.

Very hard workers
Jo Hamilton

It was a pleasure working with Phil and Aaron during our move. The move date was in limbo right up to the last day and Phil kept our slot and got us moved. Really professional with a bit of fun to along the way, nothing seemed to be too much trouble and it made the move so much smoother. Every single item they took arrived in the condition it was loaded (some even a little better where the boys went out of their way to fix our table). Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone, very professional and did not charge a fortune. Our thanks again to the guys for a great job

Highly Recommended
Marc & Lynzi

A big thank you to the guys for the smooth operation of our House Move today. We were moving a complete 5-bedroom house with lots of very large and expensive furniture. Professional movers with a sense of humour to get us through our stressful day. I would highly recommend these guys for any domestic move.

A Big Thank you!
Patricia & Billy

We moved a container of household stuff from Hong Kong. When it got to NI Big Phil and his boys arrived with the contents on time. His first challenge was to reverse the lorry through the gates, I thought this will be interesting, but Phil did it in seconds. Next the offload, we all mucked in together and at the end of the day, after a few cups of tea, a lot of banter and some hard work, the job was done. Nothing was too difficult or an issue, Phil just go on with it. There were times when I did just stand and watch to see how things were done. The man in a true professional and a gentleman. Working with him was a pleasure and I enjoyed every minute . If you need a professional mover, call Phil, you will not be disappointed, he takes the stress out of moving.

The Boyes for us!!
Dave Donnelly

I just want to say thank you to Phil and the two Alans for all their help last week. We were moving from a three story house to another three story and the boys were incredible , they just worked flat out until the job was done. Very professional but down to earth and lots of humour along the way. I can’t recommend these guys highly enough and we are very grateful for their hard work and friendliness.

Very professional
Michael Cameron

Highly recommended! This is the best removal company I have ever used by far (in 10 house moves!). From my very first phone call with Phil, I was left reassured about the whole process. Phil was very informative about timings, prices, how the furniture would be taken care of…. an excellent first impression. Phil and the two Alan’s arrived at 9.30 on the dot (as promised) and we instantly felt at ease. I’m usually nervous when my prized possessions are being moved, but I was very relaxed this time. The guys were very entertaining too, even while lugging all the heavy furniture around. All of the furniture was positioned and built where we wanted it in the new house, providing us with a home almost instantly. We were really delighted with the service and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thank you Phil, Alan and Alan!

Highly recommended!
Leigh Greer

Phil and the boys were great. They arrived bang on time, cleared the house quickly and professionally and got us unloaded just as quickly. Easy to work with, friendly and very well priced….would definitely use them again if we were mad enough to move house again. Highly recommend them.

Easy to work with, and friendly

Joy McClean

Fantastic….very helpful and friendly. Arrived right on time, dismantled beds etc, and made sure everything was well packed. At the other end they made sure everything went exactly where I wanted and built the beds & all again. And all this for a brilliant price, cannot fault their service. Many thanks

Fantastic
P.Cunningham

A massive thanks to Phil and Alan for taking the stress out if a potentially very stressful day. From the minute they arrived ( on the button of 9.30) until they finished I have to say I felt that two mates were helping me move house . I have to say I gave never seen so much tea drank before but despite this I don’t think the guys actually stopped . I will 100% recommend Boyes Removals – not a cup broken, not a minute wasted and craic all day . Thanks lads !

100% recommend Boyes Removals
Dermot


What a professional team. Phil and Alan moved us with every consideration taken for not just our furniture, but ourselves as well. A really nice, straightforward move without any fuss and a great sense of humour. Very much recommended. Thank you lads.

Very much recommended
Ron Sutton

All the reviews you will read about these guys are true. They are two lovely guys with a great sense of humour and a brilliant work ethic. They are very professional and treated our furniture as if it was theirs. I would highly recommend Phil and Alan to everyone who needs a stress free move. Thanks guys.

Stress free move
Eileen

Philip and alan came today to move my house, ive never had a removal company move me before but ill never look back, they made the tedious job of moving a breese ive never came across anyone as easy to work with, quick efficient and friendly the only thing I couldn’t offer them was a cup of tea which went down like a ton of bricks lol, but honestly i couldn’t recommend anyone better, the least stressful part of moving was today honestly i cant thank them enough. The best money ive ever spent and to be fair hes not hard to pay, thanks again lads youv made moving day a doddle

Quick efficient and friendly
Graham Ford

Boyes Removals helped us move house on 3rd May 2016 and we found them to be excellent value and just as importantly they provided a thoroughly professional service. They arrived at our house at 9:30 on the button as arranged and nothing was too much trouble. The guys had a cheery disposition and certainly helped reduce the stress of our house move. Their van was able to carry our complete house contents and deliver them safely to our new home. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to you!

Thoroughly professional service
Stephen Barry

Sitting in a conference one afternoon I thought I’d take advantage of the free wifi and use a website to find removal companies. I entered my details and within minutes was getting emails asking for number of rooms, chairs, tables, boxes etc etc I was wanting moved!! I had no idea! Then, 20 minutes later I received a phone call from Phil!

Phil apologised for disturbing me on a Sunday, of which he had no need to as I was grateful for someone getting in touch. Anyway, Phil’s pleasant way took a lot of pressure off, and he told me prices and how things operated! I said I’d think about it and get back to him.

Before I did get back to him I revived other phone calls and emails giving quotes based on furniture, metres cubed, rooms etc etc…this just confused me, so I phoned Phil and we got booked in!

On the day they were super! Just worked around us, and without any hassle. Once packed up they hit the road and met us at the other end. Then they just unloaded everything where the boxes we labelled, and if they were unsure, they just asked us!

Fantastic team….just make sure you have a kettle and tea bags readily available


Fantastic!! From start to finish!!
Martin and Norma

I had the pleasure of meeting Phil recently as we moved home.
it wasnt a straight forward move as I have an 8x2x2 Aquarium.
But the true professional that Phil is he took it in his stride.
We moved the tank on the friday and the complete house contents
on the sunday. The man is a total legend nothing was too much trouble
as anyone that has moved home knows the stress that goes with it can be
over whelming.
Phil and Alan were total proffesionals and our stress level was totally removed
I would recommend Boyes removals to anyone looking a removal job done and
done right Brilliant Job guys thank you so much

Brilliant Job

The amount of work that went into moving us was incredible. They worked like demons. Very fast and incredibly efficient. Great fun. Wonderful people. Would not hesitate recommending them. Thanks guys x

Incredible
Jackie
Phil and Alan were very friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. They were very professional and both had a great sense of humour, which was definitely needed as the weather was constant torrential downpours during the off loading of the furniture! The guys never stopped except for the odd cup of tea that was thoroughly deserved. We highly recommend these guys, we’ll definitely be booking them for our next move! A big thank you to you both!

A great sense of humour
Sara & Roger
Thanks Phil and Alan for another fine moving job today 31/03/16 that’s the 4th move in 2 years for my daughter. All done with great care and enthusiasm Thanks again. I will be recommending you each time I know someone who is moving. No more messing about with car and trailer again.

Great care and enthusiasm.
John yendall
After nearly a year waiting to move house, we got the go ahead from the solicitor. We had less than a week’s notice but we managed to book a slot with Boyes Removals. The company was recommended by a work colleague. The van arrived ahead of schedule. Phil and Alan said hello and shook hands with me. I must admit, when I realised there were only two guys, I was a bit concerned but in no time at all I felt more at ease. The way they approached the task, we could tell that they were experienced. We enjoyed their friendly manner and banter through the day. It probably helped the day pass more quickly. In 7 hours we were moved. How things were managed was impressive. I’m sure they were tired but never once showed it. A great job, well done. Thanks Phil and Alan.

Highly Recommended!
Mark Hollis
I was very impressed with the care that Phil and Alan took with wrapping, packing and storing my possessions. They worked quickly and efficiently and their experience was apparent throughout the day. On top of all this, I enjoyed their banter and friendly approach which helped to ease some of the stress of moving. I don’t think you will find better value or better service anywhere else.

Very impressed

Extremely professional and efficient, Phil and Barry never stopped and couldn’t have been more helpful.
I would have complete confidence in recommending them. From we first spoke to Phil we knew that our belongings were going to get moved safely.

Brilliant!
Darren & Louise
We used Phil and Alan for the first time to move us from our rented house to our new home and we were very pleased with the service and would highly recommend them.
They turned up on time and they didn’t stop until they were finished (apart from the odd cup of tea) and nothing was too much bother for them.
They knew exactly what they were doing and treated every item with care and they just got on with it leaving us with more time to do what we needed to do and they really took the stress out of the day for us .
Thanks again Phil and Alan and if we ever need movers again you will be top of our list

Thank you
Ronnie and Eithne

Thanks Phil and Alan for making our house move stress free. Professional guys who helped us well and above what we needed. Phil even fitted our washing machine! Where else would you get that service at no extra charge. The cost was low and the work really efficient. Be using you guys again and I’ll have the teapot on for you!

Dan Astbury
We have just used Boyes Removals yesterday to move home, and I cannot commend this company highly enough. From the first contact, when I spoke to Phil he was so positive and professional I knew he was the person to make our move smooth and hassle free.
Arrived on time, cheerful, pleasant and enthusiastic, worked so hard, heads down all day, to pack everything carefully [ which I should have packed] So professional, every box carefully packed and labelled, they even packed the linen cupboard which I was dreading.
All neatly boxed and taped ready to unpack in our new home.
It was a mammoth job carried out with complete professionalism by Phil and Alan.I
It certainly took all the stress out of the day, you can depend on this company for any job, they are first class.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Boyes Removals to anyone.
Very fast and efficient.

Pleasant and Enthusiastic

Boyes Removals recently moved my Parents from there Home which they had lived in for 38 years in Whitehead. The House was an Old Victorian three stories and there was a lot off furniture which had to be moved. Wardropes, Beds, Chester draws, Heavy Bookcase, Tables, Chairs, Sofa’s, White Goods, Boxed items and loose items as well as Garage and Garden equipment. Every article was moved with the utmost care by Phil and Alan the Boyes Team. They punctually arrived on time and got straight to work loading the lorry in a orderly manner making sure to use packing blankets to make sure that all items were protected from the journey ahead. Phil showed his experience in the removals industry by the way he loaded the lorry, ever thing fitted in like a jig saw puzzle. Although my parents were only moving round the corner they made sure that everthing was safe and secure for the short journey. Phil and his team took great pride in making sure that all items moved would get to the new home with out damage. They enjoyed a cup off Tea when offered but never took to long over drinking it. At the end of the move my parents and I had got to enjoy both Phil & Alan’s company and would definitely recommend Boyes removals for their efficient, friendly and professional service.
Thanks Guy’s for making what could of been a stressful day an easy one.

Don’t go anywhere else   Liz Westland

Would highly recommend this removal company. Rate is per hour but is worth every penny as the team is extremely efficient and quick. Everything is well taken care of from your lounge suite to your plasma tv. They helped my friend move this week and all of the above came into play. So before you give anyone else a ring call Boyes Removals first trust me you won’t regret it. 
Efficient and quick   Bobby Robinson

One of the best removal firms I have had the pleasure to deal with reliable friendly and on time. Nothing was any bother to them and take a lot of pride in their work and your belongings’ have no hesitation in recommending Philip boyes removals for competitive prices and a job well done…….philip
Friendly & Reliable   Philip Clarke

Philip helped us move house at the end of May 2013. He arrived on time and was friendly and helpful. I have never seen a removal lorry as meticulously packed! It looked like a game of Tetris! He covered all our belongings in blankets so nothing got damaged and has special storage for the flat screen tv’s. His per hour charge is excellent compared to other companies that quoted me for the job but none filled me with confidence compared to when I was talking to Phill on the phone. He really did help me relax on an extremely stressful day. I would highly recommend him. Mrs McReynolds,  Carrickfergus
Excellent service   S McReynolds

Philip Boyes removals came to me highly recommended by two different people , as a self employed contractor I know that customer recommendations carry a great deal of weight, what can I say except I’m really glad that I entrusted our house move to the Boyes team. Very friendly & easy to talk to , the guys wouldn’t even stop for something to eat , knocked their pan in for a solid 8 hours and even managed to get all the furniture from our 5 bedroom house into a 3 bedroom cottage !! . we are here temporarily until the new house is ready and i will definitely be using Boyes removals for the next move. Well done lads !
