Fantastic service from Britannia Fleet. Boxes, paper, tape and marker pens were provided in advance so we could start packing.… Read More We moved from Essex to the North West and needed to store our furniture whilst in temporary accommodation all of which seemed a daunting prospect but the staff at Britannia made it very painless and affordable. We were kept advised of the likely time of arrival of the team and knew exactly when to expect them. Ian and Terry worked wonders. Everything was carefully packed and manoeuvred and the furniture disappeared into the container in no time with good humour and no fuss at all. The guys were happy to load some items last which they delivered to us in our temporary home the next day before taking the rest off for storage, ready to be moved to our new home as part of our original package. The storage rate is competitive and it is a relief not to have to unload and reload our furniture for the final move. An excellent service that I highly recommend.
