Another house move down South completed over the weekend. This time even further afield, to Eastbourne.
The week before last was a particularly strange week for Greenbox Removals in the sense that we did 3 house moves in 7 days that had a spiral staircase in them. One of the house moves even involved us taking beds up through a window as they were too big to go up the stairs. We have done spiral staircases…
Completed a move into Big Yellow Storage for Nita last weekend. It was a lovely little move, she was in a ground floor flat and most of her belongings came straight through the window of the flat so we didn’t have to negotiate many corners/mezzanines. This saved time which saved cost for Nita, especially since she was such a speedy…
Greenbox don’t mind working on Saturdays, it seems to be a good day to move for young people in rentals so we’re only too happy to oblige. The man and van service is usually sufficient and helps the client keep their costs down. Last Saturday we moved Natalie from her city centre flat to another flat, just on the periphery…
On Saturday, Greenbox did a small relocation from Big Yellow Storage, in Leeds, to London – the rather affluent area of Kensington. The move went well with most of the time taken negotiating the traffic of The Big Smoke. If only Greenbox had a helicopter for these kind of jobs, we would have zipped it!
Greenbox took a coffin from Leeds to Sheffield last week. Not a real one of course, we’re removals not undertakers. It was a mock coffin for a music video being made for the Sheffield based band ‘The Balkan Bandits’. It’s part of the 2 Weeks 2 make It competition: https://www.facebook.com/2weeks2makeIt Their music is quite unusual – https://soundcloud.com/thebalkanbandits – so I’m presuming the video…
Completed a house move for Lisa and Scott last Thursday. It wasn’t the smoothest of moves as the people hadn’t finished moving out of their new house when we were trying to move Lisa and Scott’s belongings in. Lisa and Scott kept a wonderfully happy disposition though, all the way until 7pm when we eventually finished (we didn’t start unloading…
On Saturday Greenbox performed a man and van service for Jon from LS6 to London. Jon was very helpful in loading up the van at the Leeds end and unloading in London. It’s a service that Greenbox has often provided – it helps the client keep the price down if they can help with the larger items as most of…
Yesterday Greenbox travelled up to Stockton to take down and bring back an art installation called ‘The Grief Series’. For those regular readers you may recall I’ll worked on this project a couple of times before as it’s a transient piece that has visited lots of locations around the country. It’s been great to meet the artist, producers and carpenter…
