Advantages: None

Disadvantages: They will wreck your home

Wish I had known about this site before I chose Pickfords - the most expensive quote - to move my contents from Yorkshire to Birmingham. Assurances regarding care in packaging and transporting etc and a storage depot in Birmingham swayed me, because the majority of my goods would be in storage for nearly six months. Big Mistake. They arrived with two small vehicles instead of the large one I had expected, could not fit everything into pallets and rammed the rest in the transit.

They damaged a bedroom suite, a dresser, an antique chair, and an armchair; allowed my bed base to become stained and soiled; transported large pictures without any protective wrapping; and mislaid my sofa for a week.

I now find they did not store my goods in Birmingham as agreed but kept them in Normanton. I want to know how to make them put this right. Avoid.

Summary: Avoid using Allied Pickfords
