Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

No one has been in touch this week but not fast enough for my liking 🀣 The removal company you recommended aren't in our area and think the cost to us would be excessive. We have 3 more companies coming to quote.

They aren't in our area either but were the most competitive.

I used a company recommended by a Fetchie who were good. They were based in London and I was moving from Bristol to Elgin. I had some local quotes and they were either too low (staff wages/petrol/overnight storage concerns) or eye-wateringly high.

Sorry - that was a long-winded way of saying, I had a similar experience to Mrs Jigs.

I messaged another local removal company yesterday and pretty soon afterwards received a phone call from them, they are coming to quote tomorrow afternoon. I've not heard of them before.
I shall chase our solicitor tomorrow probably to see where we are after last week.

Got something to say?
