A Five-Star experience


Impressed by the professionalism and care provided, Nicky and Matt recommended First Choice Movers to their family and left a glowing five-star review on Google:

“Great experience and they should be your first choice!
We chose Liam and the team at First Choice Movers, not only for their great first impression made when quoting, but once we made our decision to go with them, there was great communication along the way. We also appreciated the slick quoting-to-contract process so we knew where we were. In the lead-up, sadly there was a family emergency, but this did not stop the high level of professionalism we received whilst they ensured we were still moved on the day. They were careful, quick and considerate of the high stresses of moving, and we felt like they had our back throughout. Thanks so much, Liam and the team! We would definitely choose you next time we move!”

How to protect your precious breakables during a move – Without losing your mind Moving house (or office) can be stressful enough without the added worry of your favourite crystal vase doing an impression of Humpty Dumpty on moving day. That’s where First Choice Movers can help – whether you're relocating to a charming cottage in Yateley , upgrading to a sleek pad in Camberley , or shifting to a swanky new office in Bracknell , we’ve got you (and your breakables) covered. We’re known for our meticulous packing , and not just because we like bubble wrap a bit too much. Our team treats your fragile items like treasured memories – because that’s exactly what they are. And with rave reviews from happy customers who’ve trusted us with everything from delicate heirlooms to awkwardly shaped festival props, we know a thing or two about making sure your stuff arrives intact. Here’s how we make sure your prized possessions make the journey safely. Packing with Precision – Because Your Granny’s China Deserves VIP Treatment We’re not just chucking things in boxes and hoping for the best. We treat fragile items like the royalty they are. Whether it’s your Minton tea set, a vintage clock from a local antiques fair in Farnham , or that glass figurine collection you’d rather not admit to owning – we make sure they’re snug, secure, and ready for the ride. Our go-to packing heroes: Bubble wrap (a lot of it – and yes, it’s still fun to pop after the move). Packing paper to gently cradle delicate surfaces. Sturdy, just-the-right-size boxes to keep things from rattling around like maracas. Pro tip: We don’t just throw breakables into any old box. Our team uses specialty containers for high-risk items like crystal stemware or fine china – think of it as giving them a first-class seat on their moving journey. Smart Box Choices – Because Size Really Does Matter Ever tried packing a delicate vase in a box that’s too big? It’s a recipe for disaster. We know that choosing the right size box can mean the difference between a safe arrival and a heart-breaking unpacking session. For your home move : Boxes just the right size for ornaments, photo frames, and delicate glassware. For commercial moves or event setups : Custom containers for TV equipment, stage props, and festival gear that need extra TLC. We’ve even handled specialist moves for TV location work and music events – so if you’re relocating props for a local film set or moving sound equipment for a festival in Surrey, you’re in safe hands. Tetris-Level Loading – Keeping Everything in Place Packing a moving van isn’t just throwing boxes in and hoping for the best. It’s an art form. Our team channels their inner Tetris master to load fragile boxes carefully, making sure nothing’s wobbling around or getting squashed. Our loading strategy: Heavier items on the bottom, lighter items on top – no crushed crystal here. Straps and padding to keep everything snug and secure during the journey. An eagle eye for potential hazards – because a smooth ride means fewer surprises at your new place. Labelling Like a Pro – Because “Handle with Care” is Our Mantra There’s nothing worse than getting to your new home and realising you’ve stacked your fragile box under a stack of hardback books. We label fragile boxes with the enthusiasm of a teacher marking homework – bold, clear, and impossible to miss. Clear and detailed labels: “Fragile,” “This Way Up,” and sometimes a polite “Please don’t crush my hopes and dreams.” Inventory list: We create a list of what’s in each box so you know exactly where to find what – making unpacking (almost) fun. Safe Unloading – No Box Left Behind The last leg of the journey is just as important. Whether we’re moving you into a new home in Fleet or setting up a commercial space in Aldershot , our team unloads your fragile items with care, making sure they’re placed exactly where they belong – and without a single scratch. For homeowners: Unpacking with precision to make sure your new place feels like home from the moment you step inside. For businesses and events: Efficient unloading and setup to ensure everything is in place and ready to go. Bonus: Our Secret Weapon – Local Knowledge Because we’re local to Camberley , Yateley , Bracknell , and beyond, we know the roads, the shortcuts, and the best ways to navigate busy moving days. We’re not just movers – we’re part of the community, and we care about making your move as smooth as possible. Ready to Move Without the Stress?
