Default Don't move with McGimpsey Brothers Removals

This is how they packed our stuff and we had loads of damage and broken items.
On complaint they even denied they moved us and will not take any responsibility even when confronted with pictures of damage. They have lots From speaking to them on the phone I think they are used to complaints. Pure negligence in my opinion.
Use them at your peril.

Good luck in sorting it all out with them.

I'm quite sorry to hear this as I used them for my move back in 2005 and they were excellent then.
