James was very helpful and efficient from the beginning of my contact with Empire On moving day they had a long journey collecting my things from my parents house and bringing them to Devon and my parents were as impressed with the guys as I was. They were so efficient, kind and nothing was too much bother for them. I would thoroughly recommend them for any move

A large proportion of our work takes us all over the country and we will happily move your goods to your desired location, no matter how far.

Who we are

Removal company Chudleigh

Empire Removals South West Ltd was founded and owned by James, who first worked in the removal industry in 2010. Having gained experience with other removal companies, both national and local firms, James decided to use this experience and knowledge to start Empire Removals. Based in Newton Abbot, Empire Removals is perfectly geographically placed for house removals in Devon as well as long distance removals.

James combined this experience in removals with the professional qualifications and skills he acquired during a successful career in Property Management. This has resulted in a customer focussed, professional removal service with excellent communication with our customers from the initial enquiry where we respond within 24 hours, right the way through to move day where we will move you using professional equipment and friendly, experienced staff.  

James is passionate about his business and most importantly enjoys his day to day role.  With a house removal, there is much more than just putting some boxes and furniture in a van. It is about ensuring the items are stacked safely and securely in our vans and being carried in a safe manageable way. Every move is different with different challenges which our staff are trained to handle. No day is the same from moving standard furniture and boxes or removing a room full of life size anatomical skeletons (as recently happened whilst moving one of our customers).

We have a growing reputation in the local area which is further enhanced by multiple local estate agents recommending us to their clients. Our loyal customers are proving this time and time again by returning to use our removal services or recommending us to their friends and family. We have the following core values which are always at the heart of what we do:

Professional – From the use of professional equipment to our uniformed staff conduct, professionalism is always apparent throughout the move process.

Honest – From pricing to communication, you can be assured of honesty and transparency throughout.

Helpful – Whether this is delivering packing boxes out of hours or amending the move date, we will always help to make our customers move as efficient as possible.

Flexible – We have had great feedback from our customers due to our flexible approach to moving, including splitting larger moves and our understanding of customers move dates changing at short notice.

We offer a 10% discount to all Public Sector workers. We value the job you do and want to reward your hard work where possible so we will discount your removal cost by 10% upon proof of employment. Ask us for further details.

So when looking for a removal company in Devon, please be sure to find someone you can trust to look after you and your belongings, and contact Empire Removals today.
