Roodi was in contact to explain the quote so there were no misunderstandings. He was very helpful throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Next Level Removals, I couldn’t be happier with the service they provided. I moved from Camden, to Orange, and the whole process what easy.
They were by far the best priced and had no hidden costs. Things that other companies pay extra for were included, such as extra wrapping for more protection of your items.
I will definitely recommend these guys to anyone doing a local or long distance move!
On the day the guys showed up when they said they would, they were professional and extremely polite. They called when they were 10 mins away from my new place, and made a quick job of unpacking. As it was raining they made sure their showers were taken off whenever going into a room with carpet! They are very thoughtful around the whole process. 100% recommend!!
