Customer Reviews

Mr HulmeLondon to Belfast

Moving Crew - Stewart McCrea & David Love

I was really impressed with McGimpseys in all respects. I received several quotes from different removal companies and McGimpseys was one of the cheapest. The customer service was excellent - all of my emails and queries and quotes were answered quickly (the lack of this service was why I chose to not use another company, who ignored my queries). The actual removal and delivery went without a hitch - on time, done quickly, and both movers were friendly and helpful. I will definitely be using McGimpseys again!

Mr & Mrs WakferCornwall to Newtownards

Moving Crew - Daniel Banke, Graeme McPhillips, Martin Pollock & Dylan Massey

The service we received from Jason and the team has been exceptional. Our belongings were collected from a container yard in the UK and the feedback from the staff there about the McGimpseys team was excellent. Our belongings were delivered to our home in Northern Ireland undamaged and the delivery team were first class. We really appreciated this during a really stressful time and will recommend (and use again) McGimpseys without hesitation. Thank you!!!

Mr & Mrs GirvanBangor to Dubai

Moving Crew - Cahal Gilmore & David Spence

Dear Stephen / Campbell / Peter & Paul, Many thanks for completing the pack and load phase of our move to Dubai. I'd just like to say that your crew were excellent in performing their task. I have to say that we were quite disorganised and unprepared for the move, but your team handled everything very well and coped with everything we threw at them. At no time did they make us feel that we were causing hassle or unnecessary work (although I'm sure we were), and they were very professional and hard working throughout the 3 days. Please pass on our sincerest appreciation. Kind regards, Robert & Theresa Girvan

Miss McCarthyColeraine to Melbourne, Australia

Moving Crew - Daniel Banke & Nelson Farrell

The move was excellently managed and the consultant at McGimpseys was exceptionally helpful and very patient with all my questions and problems. Thank you Catriona. The removal teams were very efficient and helpful both at the collection and delivery end. I used McGimpseys and recommend them again. I used them on a recommendation and have since spoken to several people in Melbourne who have moved from NI with them. All are happy customers.

Mr & Mrs RoebuckWarwickshire to Ballymena

Moving Crew - Dylan Harper, Dylan Massey & Curtis Dickson

Fantastic service right through from booking to delivery. Jason was exceptionally helpful with organising the move and fitting in dates / helping with quantity estimate. The team on both collection and delivery were all outstanding, very courteous and hard working. An excellent service and made what could have been a very stressful experience relatively straight forward. Would definitely recommend and use McGimpsey Brothers for removals in the future.

Mr & Mrs CarsonDownpatrick to Dallas, Texas

Moving Crew - Martin Pollock, Darren Gillespie & Richard Duckett

McGimpseys is an exceptional removals firm. You can tell they have years of experience in providing professional service. Their response times are prompt, they give you options to consider when planning your move, they provide a seamless service from booking through to delivery. BUT the most important piece of their service is their PEOPLE: courteous, professional and friendly, this really matters. In all, we have used McGimpsey Removals 5 times, including 3 international moves - we wouldn't use any other company.

Mrs DevineDublin to London

Moving Crew - Gary Lee, Alan Robinson, Warren Cullen & Darren Gillespie

I was recommended McGimpseys - by Martin Harradine (Harradines Removals UK). They were fantastic from start to finish, it really was not an easy thing clearing my mothers belonging out of her house. It was made easy because McGimpseys were professional, courteous and kind. They couldn't do enough for me and it really is much appreciated. Many thanks!

Mr & Mrs KennedySurrey to Bangor

Moving Crew - Ricky Gordon, Jamie Gent, Richard Duckett & Colin Massey

From the moment we started booking our move from Surrey back to NI Jason and everybody that was involved in our move was friendly, fun and above all professional, we really couldn't recommend McGimpseys highly enough thank you for everything.

Miss GrayWarwickshire to Carrickfergus via storage

Moving Crew - Ricky Gordon, Lewis Curragh & Colin Massey

Many thanks to Michael Dunbar who has been so helpful and friendly throughout the whole process from initial quotation through collection, storage and delivery from storage. The men who packed and collected my belongings in England and delivered them to Carrickfergus on Friday did a fabulous job, were super efficient and very friendly and accommodating. I can't thank Michael and McGimpsey's enough for making this process as painless as possible.

Mr PriceStore to Aberdeen

Moving Crew - Ricky Gordon & Graeme McPhillips

Firstly to say that the delivery went ahead as scheduled on Wednesday morning, so can I say thanks for organising things & getting this job expedited so quickly. I was particularly pleased with the packing and your two delivery guys did a fine job, took great care of all the items and were a credit to your company. Regarding collection - items were already in store with yourselves and were then packed exceptionally well.

Mr & Mrs TraversManchester to Bangor

Moving Crew - Ricky Gordon, Graeme McPhillips, Steven Atchison, Ryan Horner & Dylan Massey

We were very happy with all aspects of our relocation to N Ireland. Jason Whiteside talked us through the process and allayed our concerns about the move. The crew who collected our possessions were so professional and friendly. They inspired us with the confidence needed that our goods would be safely transported to our new home. The delivery crew were very good and cheerfully put things where we wanted them and didn't mind a bit if we asked them to move something again to another room. Overall, we were very impressed with the care and consideration given to the move. Our neighbours at both locations were overawed with the size of the truck!

Mr & Mrs StoneLisburn to Hillsborough

Moving Crew - David Craig & Steven Atcheson

David and Steven were exceptional. Very friendly, courteous and extremely hard working individuals. They made our move so easy. An asset to the company. Because of this, I booked McGimpseys to move my mum from a three storey townhouse to an apartment last week. Please can you pass my comments on to the management team. My sister in law will be booking McGimpseys for her house move in September. My sincere thanks to David and Steven.

Mr TarrantSomerset to Ballywalter via storage

Moving Crew - David Craig, Alan Robinson, Andy Smith & Richard Duckett

The experience of the move from Somerset into storage and onwards to my new home in Northern Ireland, undertaken over a period of eight months, was made less stressful by the efficiency and expertise shown by yourself and all the staff at McGimpsey's. To arrange the move from storage to my new house in less than 24 hours, as you did, I thought an extraordinary and welcome effort. This morning the two guys who delivered my furniture and boxes (Andrew and Richard) were prompt, efficient, helpful and friendly; fine ambassadors for McGimpsey. As indeed were the two, (David and Alan), that moved my possessions from Somerset into storage last September. Once again, many thanks.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and especially your removal guys for the efficient and speedy move you did for us last week. Please pass on to all the guys that came, our thanks and appreciation for all their hard work. Every one of them without exception was cheerful, professional and a pleasure to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble and they even went out of their way to do things that they didn’t have to in order to help the move. We live in a world where all too often we only get to hear about the complaints our clients have but don’t often get compliments so please thank your staff on our behalf.

Mr & Mrs FisherDundalk to Australia

Moving Crew - Martin Pollock & Justin Horner

The crew were late through no fault of their own and they rang me to apologise and to give me a new time, they then arrived within a few minutes of that time. I found the complete experience from my initial email to the collection of my boxes an excellent service and I think both my point of contact with Catriona and the removal men deserve credit. A well run and organised firm.

Mr & Mrs ThompsonBangor to Bangor

Moving Crew - David Craig & Graeme McPhillips

From start to finish our move was handled with the highest standards of professionalism. The packing materials we bought from McGimpseys were top quality. On move day the removal vans that were chosen for our job were an excellent fit for the size of our access driveways and made everything so much easier. The two removal men themselves were an absolute joy. Family and friends helping on the day commented on their professionalism and good humour. They were cheerful, helpful and polite and worked hard and quickly and moved us out of one house and into the other with great efficiency. We were dreading move day but we were stunned how easy using a good removal company made the day. I could not commend McGimpseys highly enough for their excellent service and value for money. Absolutely top notch. Well done and thank you!

Mr & Mrs WilsonAntrim to Derby

Moving Crew - Richard Gordon & Alan Robinson

Everyone at McGimpsey's has been fantastically helpful. Michael arranged the move very efficiently and Ricky and Alan were very friendly but totally professional in delivering our belongings to Derby. They arrived on time and worked hard to place items carefully where we had needed them. First class service overall. Thanks

Mr & Mrs McQueenBangor to Newtownards

Moving Crew - Gary Lee, Richard Duckett & Ryan Horner

We are absolutely delighted with the service we received; from the first contact with Jason, through to the survey, the arrangements (Jason) and with the crew (led by Gary) on the day - your staff have been excellent (polite, professional, helpful, patient, careful, prompt, knowledgeable) and made our move very straightforward. We will have no hesitation recommending McGimpseys to friends and family.

Ards Leisure CentreMove from old leisure centre to new leisure centre

Moving Crew - Johnny Lyons, Darren Gillespie & Nelson Farrell

Just wanted to touch base with you following the equipment move yesterday at Ards Leisure Centre and pass on my thanks for a very efficient and professional service. Darren and the guys were brilliant and worked tirelessly in a less than ideal situation to get all the equipment moved for us.

Mr FanningWaterford to Surrey

Moving Crew - Stewart McCrea, Nelson Farrell & Darren Gillespie

Brilliant service and great team. The only company I would recommend for movement to and from Ireland. True professionals from start to finish, great communication and service!!

Mrs PattonBelfast to West Sussex

Moving Crew - David Craig, David Spence & Dylan Harper

The men deserved a medal. There was no service lift in the apartment complex and my boxes, which were heavy had to be carried up two flights of stairs. My brother in law found them to be most pleasant men who took it all in their stride. I would recommend McGimpseys to anyone. Many thanks

Mr FernandoLisburn to London via store

Very professional and outstanding service for money. I stored my house content with McGimpsey Brothers for over 5 years and I am pleased to say finally when I decided to move it back to my preferred location, everything was in original condition. The team had taken pride and care in every aspect of removing and storing my expensive household contents. Happy to recommend their service!

Mrs MacKay-LewisLondon to Downpatrick

Moving Crew - Ian Love, Richard Nelson & Alex Mawhinney

Your men were extremely helpful and obliging and as a result our move went well and as planned. Ricky was particularly good, in fact he had moved our daughter from Donegal about a year ago and as a result she recommended your firm to us. Luckily Ricky happened to be assigned to our move both from London and into Co. Down.

Mr & Mrs SheaneNewtownards to London

Mr & Mrs ThompsonBangor via storage

Moving Crew - Michael Mortimer & Richard Nelson

We recently used McGimpsey Removals for their removal and storage service. I could not recommend them highly enough. Everything from the quality of their equipment and the friendliness and efficiency of the removal men themselves, to the excellent service provided by the customer service team, has been top notch. They treated all our belongings with utmost care and I was very impressed with their organisation and professionalism. If you want your move to be stress free and handled by professionals McGimpsey Removals should be your first choice.

We must commend Darren and Jack, they are extremely hard working and did a superb job. Upon delivery they were joined by Nelson and Alan whose work was of the same caliber.

Mr & Mrs FoxBelfast to Bath

Moving Crew - Simon Gourley, Craig McGimpsey, Richard Gordon & David Craig

I received the items in Bath. Both team members were polite, cheerful and careful bringing the items in and were kind enough to unpack the two items I was most concerned for, so that I could check they were undamaged. They also took the packaging away. It was a pleasure to deal with such pleasant men. How they managed to drive the enormous transport through Bath is a wonder! Our small load out of such a huge carrier... caused quite a stir in our street! Thank you

Mrs TohillNewtownabbey to New Jersey, USA

Moving Crew - Colin Massey & Ryan Mawhinney

I am writing to let you know my shipment has arrived safely. I just want to offer my deepest gratitude to the two amazing men who packed my things. The table my late husband made me was quite fragile and they took their time to pack it carefully. It's arrived in one piece and I am eternally grateful to them and their hard work. Please thank them for me. Your company has been amazing and I couldn't have asked for better service.

Mr MillsBangor to Essex

Moving Crew - Graeme McPhillips, Richard Duckett, Christopher Bell & Richard Nelson

The crew arrived as agreed to collect our goods and were courteous and efficient, they arrived on time and treated our stuff with care. On the other side the guys couldn't have been more helpful. They arrived on time and it was great to see friendly smiling faces from home. They again treated our goods with respect and got them into the apartment safe and sound. This is the first time we have used your company and we would definitely recommend you to anyone needing this service - thank you to all involved.

Ms GwynDevon to County Roscommon

Thanks again for such a smooth delivery service.

Mr & Mrs GibsonEdinburgh to Belfast

Moving Crew - Richard Gordon, Nelson Farrell & Chris Bell

Fantastic service from start to finish. Despite our flat being located in a small gated complex, McGimpseys went out of their way to accommodate this. Everything went as promised. Our goods were collected and received right on time. Many thanks again to Michael for all the help with our move from Edinburgh to Belfast. You made our relocation a lot less stressful. Would highly recommend McGimpseys.

Mr NimniBelfast to London

Moving Crew - David Craig, Nelson Farrell, Gary Lee & Darren Gillespie

I want to take the opportunity to say how wonderful your service was. The guys that collected the stuff were really marvellous, everything was well packed and organised. I was very stressed and the guys calmed me down. The packing was excellent, and while I am only half way through the unpacking, everything arrived ok. Also the guys that delivered were brilliant, could you convey to them my appreciation.

Ms GalloisBelfast to East Sussex

Moving Crew - David Donnelly, Richard Nelson, Stewart McCrea & David Love

How do you spell "E F F I C I E N C Y ?" It was most satisfying to work with Michael Dunbar, a true professional who replied to all my emails in the minutes they arrived. He was very reassuring all the way and nothing was a problem. Excellent service, excellent client relations and a refreshing can-do attitude (a rare commodity today!) from beginning to end. Can recommend this company 100%.

Mr & Mrs McCartneyBangor to Africa

Moving Crew - David King & Richard Nelson

This particular move was for preparing a piano for overseas shipment and storage until time of collection. We have been using your company for house moves here, storage and removal to overseas since 1990. We are very satisfied with the help, efficiency and courtesy always extended to us and have no hesitation in recommending you to friends and others who require this speciality.

Ms StrainLondonderry to Birmingham

Moving Crew - Cahal Gilmore, Richard Nelson, Ian Love & David Spence

Excellent service...the collection staff were very courteous, professional and efficient. They kept me updated on the expected time of arrival for collection of my possessions...good packaging for safe delivery of all items. The delivery staff experienced the same problems as I had done the previous day with issues with the sat- navs instructions in Birmingham. They managed with the challenges professionally, kept me updated and informed on their expected time of delivery and locations. They were very friendly, courteous and professional. Michael who coordinated the whole process was extremely professional and informative at all times. I have relocated on many occasions between countries and the U.K and I would highly recommend your company for value, excellent value for services, guaranteed safe guard of personal possessions in transit alongside utmost friendliness, courteously and professionalism of all your team concerned. Thank you...and I will be using you again if relocating...I will not hesitate in recommending you to family and friends.
