Another drop off at St Vincents – lots of duvets and mattresses kindly donated by Unipol Student Homes. And a sofa which Victoria, a lovely lady I completed a house removal for the other day, said I...
Office Move for Space Architects
It’s been over 3 months since Greenbox’s last office move, it all seems to be about the house moves at the moment and, like a bus, two come in a week, albeit both for the same organisation – Space...
Super-Sue
Well it’s not often that Greenbox feels like we move slow, but Sue put us to shame when we moved her last Friday. She was up and down stairs, carrying boxes, making brews, filling us up with...

The sun was shining, the air was cool – perfect removal weather today. And Martin and Jen were perfect clients – everything boxed, and packed and ready for off when we got there at 9am. They...
Leeds to York
Completed a house move yesterday for Fiona and Mark and, although we’ve been doing this for over two years now, we learnt something new. To save time taking all (ordered) cds out of the cd cabinets,...
Sunday House Move
Just a small move – mainly items from a garage – for David and Maggie as their daughter was moving into a house in Leeds. And with plenty of help from the family we had it completed in 3 hours dead...

Unipol Student Homes 5 year plan to replace all their 3 foot beds with 4 foot beds at their Mill Street accommodation came to fruition today and Greenbox Removals was the one installing them. That...
Swift Move Reproduced
It’s always great to move someone a second time (perhaps not for them as it can be quite an onerous task doing all that packing) . Greenbox Removals moved Anna about a year ago into a shared house...
Record Removal
It was only a little house move – a 2 bedroom back to back in Kirkstall – but there were plenty of boxes to keep us busy . Cath and Paul were as prepared as cub scouts – they were waiting at the...

After completing a day of removals for Unipol Student Homes in Leeds I was asked to dispose of a number of duvets/pillows/crockery/cutlery/pots and pans that students had left when they vacated...

Every Removal Man’s Dream….
There’s nothing like a ground floor flat to ground floor flat move especially when the weather is fine. Liah had us booked in for the removal in Leeds for quite some time now; a recommendation from...

Flat Move in Leeds
It was a Saturday morning, the weather was fine, streets were quiet, when the Greenbox Removals van pulled up at the apartment block. We had two hours, no more, to move the entirety of Antonia’s...
House Moves, Comic Strips and No Awards….
Completed a house move from Leeds to York for a really wonderful family today with Alvin. Greenbox had won the quotation, possibly because we were the cheapest, but as Victoria pointed out, because...
And here is the picture by Jonah…
It was a long day but Alvin and I did smile a lot on the way home, particularly at Jonah’s picture of me which makes me look a little like a worn-out but surprised Jesus. And why do I get the jeers...
Bunga-lows and highs
Another scorching day for a house move in Leeds, but this caused no problem for Greenbox Removals, we love the challenge. Today’s customers were Sam and Mitch – a brilliant couple who maintained a...
House Removal from Boston Spa to Whitley Bay

Did a move for a lovely Leeds University student this morning called Sin. Sin was incredible, she had everything out of her storage unit, and at the shutters, ready for me when I arrived at 10am. We...

Stairs, Stairs and More Stairs
