Unfortunately couldn't use Franklins for our move from France because of timing, however they were very organised, responsive, and friendly in their communications. They are first on my list if I have to move again.

Right from the start of finding a removal company to move us to France I knew we where onto a winner with Franklins. Ben was incredibly helpful in the middle of the pandemic. Where ever you are moving to do not hesitate to use Franklins they are professional removers and understand that is is also a very hard time for all. All of Bens team are great and we had a great packing day and removal day. Fast and efficient and what we really liked was that they all seemed to care about our belongings. The Lorry arrived 3 days later in France and unpacking went really well especially as we had a lot of stuff to go upstairs and through windows. Everyone worked so hard and even though it took us all day it went without a hitch and everything made it to France in one piece. I would like to thank the Guys by name that got us here, So thank you to Gary, Shaun, Dean, Lee, Pete, and Kieran. if I have forgotten anyone please know that we are most grateful to you all.

An extremely efficient and friendly service. I cannot recommend them highly enough!!

I needed a 3 seater Chesterfield settee moving from my lounge to my garage in preparation for delivery of a new one. Bring a pensioner, I couldn’t do this on my own and as I’d had a new porch door fitted since the old one was delivered, I realised I would need a removal expert.I phoned in the morning and was quoted a fair price. As their van was in the area, they said they’d come later the same day...there would be no charge if they couldn’t do it and they would advise on what to do...remove the door, a window pane or whatever. They arrived as promised and had it moved in 5 minutes....but it wasn’t straightforward. Very courteous men...as this happened during Covid they used hand gel I leave for visitors without being asked to do so. Would definitely use them again and can highly recommend them.

Kieran and Sean arrived bang on time, were helpful and courteous throughout. All on a few cups of coffee to keep them going!

Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish with Franklins - would not hesitate to use them again.

Fantastic service made the move so much easier . Guys were brilliant so helpful and hard work working.
Ben was extremely helpful in dealing with our request so all in all extremely good service.
Would definitely recommend them.

I would like to thank Simon, Kieran and Frazer for their great help in delivering the contents of my house over two mornings in windy and wet conditions. They couldn't be more helpful and careful. Thanks again. Should there be another move you will be the top of my list!

Many thanks to Adrian and team who moved us on 3 January. They were so considerate, organised and calm and worked so hard to get us sorted.

Great removal company moved my parents today. Can't recommend them enough. Thanks Sean, Kieran and Dean

Excellent service from start to completion of house move from UK to France. Family members have used their services in the past and were very pleased.
Ben visited to arrange the removal and was very obliging with regards dates etc.
Simon, Pete and Kieran did a fantastic job loading and unloading, efficient and courteous at all times.
Would highly recommend Franklins Removals.

Last week Franklins moved the contents of our French house to our house in the UK. My partner and I were highly impressed with the service they offer and would definitely recommend them. Our first contact was with Ben on the phone. He was friendly, reliable and gave us clear information about the move. He quickly earned our trust.
Simon and Frazer were our drivers/packers. They were faultless. Considerate, careful and efficient. We were pleased that Simon and Frazer also delivered our goods to our house where they were just as careful, considerate and efficient as they were in France.

We had a fantastic move the 2 guys turned up on time and loaded the lorry with upmost care and attention and did the same unloading the lorry in France, we can not praise this company enough and recommend them 100% please if you thinking of moving use Franklins as you will get a fantastic service and great workers

We engaged Franklins to pack up the contents of our house in South Devon, move them to our new abode in the Ariege south of Toulouse, and install them in our new house. We are delighted with the result! Packing and unpacking were professional, nothing was damaged and the move went like clockwork. Fraser and Simon, the movers, arrived early on 5 November in Devon, found that we had more to pack than they had expected, but didn't complain, finished around 5pm and took the night ferry to Roscoff. We flew from Heathrow to Toulouse on Nov 6, rented a van to do the shuttle to our house and met up with Franklins' lorry on the morning of the 7th. Once again, the work was finished by 5pm and the crew departed in cheerful good spirits. They both worked hard all the time, and even helped us with moving furniture already in our new house so that items from the UK could take their place. One of these items was a heavy baby-grand piano. Fraser & Simon happily picked it up and moved it across the room so that our dining table could go where the piano had been. This extra furniture moving was all done without complaint and without extra charge. They were both very easy to work with, unflappable when something was difficult, even tempered throughout, and remained cheerful even after working all day in the cold and wet. We would happily use them again!

We'd like to comment on the fact that, although almost all Franklins' reviews are extremely positive, the few that are not extremely positive are extremely negative. We noticed this before deciding to hire Franklins. We also noticed that the bad reviews that we saw do not concern the quality of the work, but seemed to involve misunderstandings or poor communication between movers and customers, resulting in the movers arriving at the "wrong" address or disputes over T&Cs (eg non-refundable deposit).

We therefore took care to read the T&Cs and think about what might go wrong. We identified two possible problems:

(1) Our short (300m) access road has a 3.5 ton limit and two nasty bends, so that we may need to hire a van to do a shuttle from the village to our house on the hill. We emailed a GoogleEarth map to Ben, who agreed that a shuttle would be needed and quoted £300 for the extra work. When Fraser and Simon arrived they recounted that they had several times arrived with no warning as to restricted access, and that they had then incurred delays in finding a van to hire. We presumed (but did not ask) that such delays have been expensive to customers.

(2) Ben seemed unworried about Brexit-caused delays, but our reading of the T&Cs raised the possibility than a few days' unexpected delay could add enormous expense. We were about to suggest to Ben that he place a cap of £500 on any such additional cost, when he suggested exactly the same amount. In fact, there were no delays and our only extra expense above the original quote (note that the quote states "plus VAT") was the agreed £300 for the shuttle.

Great service from start to finish. Simon, Kieran, Max and Sean were excellent - good humoured and efficient. Everything was packed really well and the move went smoothly.

Gaz & his mate were excellent , took great care of our furniture , Ben had already advised us on how to prepare & box in advance to speed up the move out. Franklins also dismantle beds & tables etc which we could not find with other firms & they were also recommended to us by friends who had used them . They are also storing oiur furniture & bringing it up to Yorkshire in a couple of weeks time . Many thanks Guys

Two day event, packing first day and move the second. Pete, Dean and Max packed with great care and couldn’t have been more courteous and accommodating. The weather on the move was wet, but neither the weather nor the changes in the team made any difference to the professional way they worked. The cling filmed protection for the carpets was much appreciated with the wet weather! It was good to have the continuity of Pete throughout and Gary, Kieran and Fraser made a great team on day two. We would be very happy to recommend Franklins.

Great service on our move up to Keighley. Speedy tidy and efficient work from Pete and Dean on the day, and from Ben in the days before, setting up the move.

Great from start to finish.
Ben was helpful when organising our move. The two lads who turned up to move us were brilliant, friendly and easy to deal with. Definitely recommend! Thanks

The team were excellent start to finish top job and very respectful with our furniture and possessions

Excellent service from start to finish 👍
The lads Garry,Dean , Pete and Kieron worked tirelessly to complete our move. The end location was very tricky and they managed it perfectly.Can’t praise them enough ! Many Thanks to Ben for overseeing whole operation
Would highly recommend

Truly amazing service from the guys at Franklin’s from start to finish! Garry, Simon, Pete and Dean arrived bang on time at 7:30am and worked effortlessly and effectively and soon had our house emptied. Then it was on to the new property where everything was unloaded and put exactly where we required, Garry then reassembled the furniture we asked for making our life much easier! They guys were faultless and we couldn’t have asked for more, nothing was too much trouble and not one breakage! It was well worth the money and we can highly recommend Franklin’s to anyone looking for a superb removal company! Sincere thanks to all the guys involved with our move.

Our removal from France back to the U.K. was excellently managed and carried out. Pete and Kieran moved us out from France and we cannot praise them enough for their professionalism, friendliness, and courtesy. Dean joined the team for our moving into our bungalow in Wales and proved equally professional and friendly. Many thanks again for a painless removal. We would thoroughly recommend Franklins . Rosemary and Emlyn

Brilliant Service, Very Good Prices, Used Twice Over the Past Couple of Years, Pleasure to Do Business with & the Team are Awesome, Highly Recommended :)

We had Gary and Dean on our move, and they were great. Lovely polite guys, everything on time and done exactly as promised. Contact with Ben initially to organise the move was also great. Good experience all round.
