    Packing and moving my Mum to her new home

    Posted 18 April

    Ed and James worked really hard and got everything safely packed, transported and delivered to the new location. They even moved garden plants in big pots without any damage. As ever they were polite and very helpful. The price was very good for the work done. I have booked Astons several times but this was by far the largest task so far - and they were brilliant, as ever!

My name is Edward Aston. I've been doing removals since June 2000.

I started off working for a large removal company in Shoreham West Sussex doing Domestic, Commercial moves and machine moving.

I decided that I wanted to work for myself and after 2 and a half years my parents brought Ralphs Removals in Portsmouth that had been established for over 25yrs. I run Ralphs with my father doing all aspects of the business.

In 2008 removals changed a lot because of the recession and this made a massive difference to people moving and effected our business.

I decided to open Aston's Light Removals April 2011 to try and get small moves and delivery work.

Aston's ever since has been doing a lot of medium size moves i.e. Flats, 2 bed houses, delivery work and piano moves anywhere in the UK. We can do larger moves if necessary or I will pass the work onto Ralphs Removals.

In a nut shell Aston's is perfect for small to medium removals or larger, if moving Rental properties as there is not a time restriction.
