Customer-led Removals
We’re Humphreys, a Watford-based removal company. We recently celebrated our 100th birthday so when we say we’re well-established it’s true. We’ve grown the business in response to the needs of our customers wherever their destination, whatever their storage requirements.
Not surprisingly we’ve moved a lot of people and their belongings over the decades. It’s fair to say, however, that today’s average household has much, much more to move than 100 years ago. Fewer hat boxes and stamp collections maybe but more toys, clothes, technology, hand bags, cushions, trainers etc. Then there’s the shed full of tools and the garage that doubles as a gym. (And don’t forget the loft.)
In 1918 the average family could get their belongings in a small trailer. Today, you’re more likely to fill a 7.5 ton truck. Plus an overflow in the car (blocking the back window) of random ornaments and lamps alongside the pot plants, pets and children.
Today’s business client is just as varied as 100 years ago. From transporting valuable artifacts to storing furniture during refurbs or as a consequence of Covid-19.
Our Values and Philosophy
Rest assured some things will never change. Humphreys will always be ready to pack, store and move anything in any quantity. Your valuables will always reach their destination safely whether they’re antique or fresh out of the box.
This is our service promise:
To be reliable and reassuring
It’s our aim to reduce the stress associated with moving. From the early planning stages right up to the minute you shut the front door on your new home, it’s our job to reassure you and make the process as straightforward as possible.
To be trustworthy
You can trust us to carry out your move efficiently and with your interests at heart. We want your move to go smoothly – whether it’s around the corner in Watford, up the motorway to Edinburgh or across the Channel to Europe. Essentially, we think of everything.
To be professional and resourceful
One hundred years of removal experience means our customers benefit from our well-connected and flexible operation. It’s as simple as that. Humphreys is a professional, resourceful and experienced removal company.
To be value-led not cost-driven
We deliver a service that’s 100% efficient and reliable with no hidden costs. We offer our customers value for money.

Packing
Why Pack Yourself?
When people pack to move house it often descends into a panicky, tearful mess. When we pack, we do it quickly and efficiently. After all, we don’t have the memories associated with your treasured belongings. Talk to Humphreys about packing, it really is all part of the best removal service you need.
Secure Storage Facilities
Storage can solve a lot of problems, particularly when you’re moving. We offer UK-wide short and long term storage facilities to suit every situation. So, if completion is delayed for a day or two your belongings will be safe until you can move into your new home. Or, you might need an empty house while you re-decorate. In which case, we’ve got longer term storage options to suit your needs.
Manage Your Move, Manage Your Stress
Over the decades, we’ve experienced just about every scenario that can delay or derail a move. So, it makes sense for us to share our knowledge with you in our really useful checklist.
Business Removals
