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 chocolate biscuits, cleaning, unpacking…. She was relentless. She would make a fine Greenbox employee. It really was a pleasure working for her; she…


Well we haven’t moved a Treadmill in about a year so we were about due one. This time it was part of a complete house removal in Leeds and came out of a small house in Horsforth. The move was for Nick and Bea and Nick had done a mighty fine job of disconnecting the treadmill into manageable bits so…

Last week was an incredible week – the busiest week so far for Greenbox Removals. We completed everything from full 3 bed house moves (requiring 2 vans) to small flat house moves (2 in a day). It was a fantastic week with plenty of happy customers all moved into their new abodes.

Just got back from a very swift student move from McCarthys storage to Central Village next to the University of Leeds. Tara certainly had more belongings than a typical student but I soon realised that it was actually three student’s belongings as she had – rather wisely – shared the storage and relocation costs between her and two of her…

Well it’s that time of year again when all the students arrive in Leeds. The roads were chocker-block with cars full of duvets, tvs, laptops, microwaves, irons, dry foods, excited/nervous youngsters and emotional/joyous parents. Greenbox’s job on Saturday and Sunday was to greet the new students at the large high-rise student accommodation in the city centre and take their luggage…

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 certainly ran a military style operation making the move from Kirkstall to Yeadon, Leeds, go as smooth as it could do. I was also…

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, Mark and Fiona had shrink wrapped them so they transported without any disruption. This also saved space on the van. Brilliant idea. I’ll be…

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 meaning that we were back in time for a Sunday dinner!

Completed a house move for some friends on Saturday, unfortunately I couldn’t take care of it personally due to the recent arrival of my new son – Reuben – but I left it in the more than capable hands of my trusted colleagues, Laszlo and Alvin. The move went smoothly and Jon and Lucy were kind enough to help the…

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 was a lot of beds, over 450 in total! Now those students have got much bigger sacks to hit and count sheep on.
