Watson European Bewertungen 

What can one say to improve on what 5 stars say of themselves? We had excellent service on a fiddly and complicated move. Staff went well beyond the call of duty and remained pleasant and cheerful, even when faced with unexpected problems and delays (caused by others, not them or us).

Excellent service from my first phone call to the final delivery of our belongings after being in storage. Watson completed all the paperwork for our return from france to uk. Highly recommend

I know how invaluable reviews are for service providers and potential clients alike. Here is an unbiased and unsolicited review of our experience with Watson European. Our relationship started in April 23 through to this summer 2025.
I used FB to get recommendations for a removal company to handle moving a house and garden full of stuff to England. A trawl of reviews then filtered it all down to Watson European. When I mailed them for a quote I got a same day, comprehensive phone response from Andy Gash explaining everything the Company would do to make our experience as smooth as possible. To say they delivered, pardon the pun, is an understatement. I can not speak highly enough of the whole team. Andy and Amy in the office responded to my many ,often trivial, questions and load-size changes throughout the process with patience and clarity. The most important guys (perhaps!) Dave, Dan and, er, Dan arrived on time, loaded with care and speed then re-appeared some weeks later ( as we used Watson’s storage offer) to deliver everything with equal efficiency. Top blokes. No hitches, no issues, just a cheery, professional demeanour at all times. The whole process went without a single glitch, though I don’t doubt they would have resolved any issue that arose.
By a long way this is the best removal company we have ever used and we unreservedly recommend them.

We used Watson European to move the furniture and contents of our second home in France back to our UK house after we sold the French house. The main contact we had with Watson's was Andy who was excellent in all respects and provided invaluable help and advice on making this move. Communication at all times was fast and easy. We also we had contact with Amy in the office who was also very helpful.
The Watson teams both at the French collection end and also at the UK delivery end were excellent. Very nice and helpful people. Can't speak highly enough of them.

It takes special people to make a company work to such high standards,whilst been able to have a relationship with customers where you feel you have had contact with them for years. Andy and his team have this, from start to finish of the move you can ring and get advice know that you are been advised with the correct information. Very reasonable quote with no extras and Jack and Danny were so helpful even had a smile when they had to lift our sofa bed over the upstairs balcony. I would recommend Watsons to anyone, just can't do enough to make your relocation run smoothly. Well done!

All our dealings with Andy and the team were top notch from start to finish.
Andy was always available for any queries and seemed to know everything about relocating back to the UK, even if it didn’t involve removals.
Dave and Dan, who carried out the removal were faultless too. All carried out with efficiency and good humour, even in the middle of a heatwave!
I’d have no hesitation in recommending them.

Five-Star Service from Watsons European – Above and Beyond!

We recently used Watsons European to transport bikes to Florence for a cycling tour from Florence to Rome, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, Dave and Dan were absolutely outstanding – professional, proactive, and deeply committed to making sure everything ran smoothly for the riders.

There were significant logistical challenges along the way, but Dave and Dan tackled each one with calm determination, brilliant teamwork, and a genuine desire to support the success of the tour. Their attention to detail, willingness to go the extra mile, and unflappable attitude made all the difference.

They didn’t just handle transport – they were a crucial part of the team, ensuring riders had access to their bikes and luggage when needed, solving issues on the fly, and helping to create a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere for everyone involved.

If you’re looking for a transport partner you can truly rely on – especially for complex, European logistics – look no further than Watsons European. Exceptional service from an exceptional team.

Watson European recently moved my inheritance items (furniture and other household goods) from Wales to my home in Paris. Throughout, Andy Gash was extremely available, responsive and patient with my (numerous!) queries. He’s due special thanks for informing me that moves « under probate » are exempt from French customs tax and dealing with the admin, it was all made easy and saved me a not inconsiderable sum. On collection day Dan and Dan were prompt, efficient and courteous. The delivery was subsequently made even sooner than initially promised and went without a hitch; in particular we really appreciated that Dan and colleague voluntarily reassembled an antique wardrobe, which was not in the contract and spared me straining my sore shoulder. The company was recommended to me by a friend and I’m very happy to recommend them on.

The first time I contacted Watson European was by email leaving my details and requestig a quote. I was contatced by phone by Andy Gash who immediately impressed me with this personal touch, we had a conversation on what was needed by ourselves and requested a quote, initialling given over the phone and I was surprised and delighted that this quote never changed throughout the five months we were in contact with Andy any there were no hidden charges following. There was a third party involved in this transaction, which needed input from Andy to finalise on delivery and check the goods on my behalf when delivered to their premises, which Andy did on my behalf efficiently and effectively and who kept me informed throughout the entire time. The next stage was delivering the items to me which once again was carried by by the team thoroughly, quickly and efficiently. The goods were delivered on time and in perfect condition and placed in position without any input from ourselves. Andy and his team are absolutely amazing and I would not hesitate in using them again or recommending them to others. Congratulations you have restored my faith from previous bad experiences in the past with other companies. Thank you all again.

This was the second occasion for us to use Watson European and once again, their professionalism, courtesy and efficiency shone through. At every stage, communication, clarity and customer service were exemplary. Every question or query received a prompt and relevant response, whilst the collection and delivery in both locations could not have been better. We were fully informed by phone, text and e-mail about every aspect of the move and all timings, which greatly helped to make the whole process far less stressful. Andy Gash is an excellent administrator and communicator, who is very efficient and helpful, whilst his good humour and calmness, regardless of any challenge, is both commendable and admirable. Whenever we will need to move in the future, we will always go back to Watson European, as there is absolutely no need to go elsewhere.

Despite many assurances about the company's experience, expertise, sensitivity to our needs and goodwill, our move from France to the UK was a disaster for us. Moving was chaotic because it was so poorly managed and the crew were badly led. We now have to replace much of our lost kitchen equipment and all goodwill has evaporated.

Our complaints at the time were met with a tentative apology but were never followed up with us. Eventually, we wrote a long letter sent by recorded delivery and detailing the many problems. Two months later we have yet to receive a reply.

An AI generated summary of that letter follows:
• Initial Engagement and Quotation: Mr. Denenberg initially contacted Watson European for a removal quote in May 2024 and had multiple discussions with Mr. Andy Gash regarding the logistics and requirements, including an initial assessment via videos.
• Agreed Collection Plan: The removal crew was scheduled to arrive on 27th August, with an allowance for 50m3 of space. However, issues arose because the company had failed to assess or communicate space limitations and the crew arrived early, while packing was still being completed.
• Piano and Crew Issues: The crew refused to take the piano despite prior discussions, and there was inconsistent communication and cooperation between the crew and Mrs. Denenberg.
• Uncooperative Behavior: The crew leader, Danny, frequently disregarded Mrs. Denenberg's requests, leading to tension and uncooperative behaviour on his part throughout the move.
• Failure to Adhere to Plan: The crew did not follow the agreed plan to start from the bedrooms, resulting in a disorganized and rushed move, leaving behind many boxes and pieces of furniture.
• Additional Costs and Delays: Mr. and Mrs. Denenberg had to arrange for the piano and remaining boxes to be shipped separately, incurring delays which made most claims under the insurances impossible.
• Responsibility and Communication Issues: Mr. Denenberg highlighted the failure of Watson European to take responsibility for the issues and losses, with Mr. Gash blaming the other movers and avoiding responsibility for missing items.
• Insurance and Compensation: Mr. Denenberg discussed the insurance claim process and expressed dissatisfaction with the company's response.

In all, we were shocked and disappointed by this company. Some of their employees are decent people but we now deeply regret our choice.

From initial contact with Andy to obtain a quotation the service we received is very professional, we agreed a shipping date when Dan and Danny arrived to load up. They filled the wagon with expert Jenga moves , it was then we realised we had more goods than we thought. A quick conversation with Andy and a resolve was sorted. We left for France the day after and were met by Danny and Harry 4 days later at our French address. The guys work diligently to offload our goods and a few hrs later all was good. The boys left and we then had that moment of oh my God, where are we going to put all of this. A week later and our second load arrived with Dave, Martin and Albert who again did a remarkable job.
To summarise I would gave no hesitation in recommending Watsons European to any prospective requiring moving services. All of the team worked hard to help make our dream happen. A big thanks to all of the crew.

Andy and his team collected our 2 containers from storage in Thirsk to deliver in a couple months to France. They have been amazingly helpful, and Dan and Harry, the 2 extremely efficient and speedy removalists went above and beyond to make it as stress free as possible. Thank you and I can only sing their praise.

Professional, efficient, helpful team from initial enquiry to final delivery. I would recommend and use them again. No question was ignored or too much trouble. In my opinion thier deserve they a 5 star rating

What an amazing company. We had no hesitation in engaging Watson European to help us move our stuff back to the U.K. from central France. Their quote for the job was very reasonable and their professionalism was indisputable. At every stage in the process we were kept informed of progress and it wasn’t a straight forward one . An old Land Rover piled with things to Jersey, a heap of things to be collected from a barn when we weren’t there to be taken into storage and then delivered to Suffolk and made ready to go to various addresses later. Paperwork was done and everything went without a hitch. Andy and his team were unfailingly cheerful and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend Watsons

Contacted Andy for a quote to move a quad bike and a transit van load of vintage garage memorabilia from Cornwall to Brittany - Price agreed (very reasonable) Collection was arranged and we were kept updated throughout the process regarding ETA etc. Items held in storage and then shipped to Brittany approx 8 weeks later. Andy was a constant throughout out the process, advising us on customs, import duty and tax. The delivery was very smooth and again I was kept constantly updated regarding ETA. Nothing was too much trouble for the team at Watson European and we will definitely be using them again! We highly recommend this company, and will spread the word!

A completely faultless service from every person we dealt with from Watson European.
Our collection in the UK by Andy and Ross went like clockwork as did the delivery in France by David, Dan and Danny. Communication was excellent, keeping us updated at all times either by email or phone.
All paperwork required was handled incredibly efficiently by Amy and took all the stress from us of dealing with customs etc
We cannot recommend Watson European highly enough. They provided the highest quality service carried out by the loveliest people.
A huge, huge thank you to you all.

Andy and the team have done a fantastic job moving my belongings from a storage unit from France to the UK. I can only recommend!

I am very impressed by Watson European. They guided us through the administration, packing etc, then picked up, stored and delivered at dates to suit us. Both office staff and removal guys very helpful and professional. Can’t fault them and would highly recommend them.

Extremely helpful with the necessary paperwork for a France-UK removal.
Delightful to deal with regarding difficult access for the collection in France and the delivery to Surrey.
Fast and efficient.
We wholeheartedly recommend Watson European.
