Knightmovers are pleased to announce that we can now accept customers payments using their credit or debit cards.

We hope that the introduction of credit/debit card payments will make it easier for our customers to pay for their move or storage, as well as providing an extra level of security and reassurance. There is a nominal charge for debit cards and standard charges apply for using credit cards. Please enquire about these charges when paying for your move or storage.

Ask about paying by credit/debity card when you arrange your move or storage.

Knightmovers is happy to announce its new membership of the British Association of Removers (BAR).

BAR is the largest established and most recognised trade association for the removals industry in the UK with over 500 of the leading professional removal and storage companies in it's membership.

The British Association of Removers (BAR) has become the first trade body within the UK professional removal sector to successfully secure OFT approval for its code of practice.

Our membership of this well respected trade organisation requires us to adhere to the professional criteria and codes of practise that the association requires. In addition to these stringent requirements the organisation assists with professional training and support, information and advice to us and our customers and can provide a complaints and disputes resolution service, giving our customers extra peace of mind.

After a great deal of development and preparation our new website is launched (you already know because you're looking at it)

Our new site will enable us to keep our customers up-to-date with additions and changes to our services.

Our news section will feature stories about our travels around the UK and Europe (assuming anyone emails the web designer with some stories).

Please read about our new online quote system and take some time to look at our guides and advice in our "Useful info" section.

Please feel free to call us on 01341 241766 with regards to anything about removal and storage or about our new site.

Knightmovers have introduced an online quote system on our website.

Our new system of online quoteforms will allow us to give customers an accurate quote for their household removals.

We estimate that it should only take 10-20 minutes to fill in (for most households). We have even included a printable version so that you can walk around your property, filling in the contents, and return to the online form, enter the contents there and wait for us to contact you with your quote.

Use the link above to utilise our new online quote system.

Me and Wynn (the boss) had a long drive to Dover today. We were on our way to Potsdam (in Germany) to deliver furniture. Funny, but Wynn didn’t seem to enjoy my rendition of Black Sabbath's greatest hits, so I put on my Peters and Lee CD instead. That didn’t seem to help much though.

Tuesday/Wednesday February 27th/28th 2007
Today we sailed through customs and on to Calais. It took us a day and a half to travel through France, Belgium and the Netherlands and we got to Potsdam by lunchtime. We had phoned Mr. S from the German border so all we had to do was call him again from Berlin and we met him outside the apartment block. We unloaded the removal lorry and then found a nice big empty carpark to spend the night.

I was having a lovely dream about Claudia Schiffer when she suddenly started shouting at me in German. Then I realized that it was in fact a rather large German lady outside and she was hammering loudly on the back of the lorry. It was 5am. I hid behind Wynn as he opened the back to find the large German lady and 20 other people all talking to us at the same time. Imagine our surprise to find that the nice empty carpark was now covered in gaily coloured stalls and it had transformed into a huge marketplace!

We left, carefully driving around the sausage and jaunty Bavarian hat stalls and headed back to Calais as fast as the law would allow.
