Professional, Polite, and Hardworking: I recently used Ferriday and Alder for my house move and I am so glad I did. They provided a full packing and removal service and did an excellent job with everything. The crew arrived with a great attitude; they were exceptionally polite, professional, and worked tirelessly to get everything loaded and safely transported. They made what is usually a stressful day feel easy. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a reliable moving team!Verified reviewerJob location: RG309.67 House move and storage

Overall a good experience. Paul was quick to respond to queries from original quote to sorting out dates. I had to put my stuff in storage for a few weeks which Paul was able to arrange as well as managing to plan around the uncertainty of my moving date. I had the packing service, which worked well, the packers were efficient and careful.Verified reviewerJob location: RG308.33 Efficient service

We felt confident that all our belongings were carefully packed and taken care of. The cost seemed favourable when compared with similar suppliers.
