Important Message: COVID-19
Following the Prime Ministers briefing of 23rd March 2020 and along with the guidance from our trade body the British Association of Removers; George Bernard Shaw has taken the difficult decisions to suspend our removal services until further notice.
The wellbeing of our staff and customers must be our priority and we feel that, based on the recent announcements and the escalation, the current advice makes this step unavoidable.
We will be constantly monitoring and responding to emails, website enquiries and telephone messages. We will get back to you as soon as possible.
Britannia George Bernard Shaw wishes everyone all the very best at this difficult time. Also to ask everyone to get behind the Government advice that is now in place. PLEASE STAY AT HOME.

Peter Lax was another client grateful for our hard working removal team. Also their sense of humour whist waiting for keys was a winner with this… client. I wanted to write to express my sincere thanks to the team who helped us move on Monday 29th June. They were extremely efficient and worked really hard. Even more so when we were unable to get access to the property. This was due to the vendor’s chaotic exit however they remained cheerful and good humoured throughout. Please be ever so kind to make sure they know how happy we are with them. Also make their boss fully aware of our gratitude for a job well done. Yours sincerely, Peter Lax Read more “Peter Lax”

Roy and Annie Boulton so want to say a big thank you to the GBS team. Just a little note to say a rather big thank… you to all at GBS.
