    Moving from Dublin city to Moycullen in a few weeks.
    Thought about renting a large van with my other half but we think for the safety of our relationship and a stressful few journeys! We'd prefer to spend a bit extra and hire professional movers.
    It's just my stuff I'm moving.. But I've lots of clothes, good bit of kitchen stuff (small appliances etc) and a side board/small wardrobe/2x chest drawers/IKEA squares etc. So a considerable amount for one person!

    Would love some genuine recommendations for a seamless move!
    Thanks!

    My family has used Pickfords multiple times. My mother swears by them. They are fast, professional, experienced and at the very least, worth considering.

    Pickfords are a uk company, don't even have an office in Ireland.

    Try corrib removals who are based in Galway . Work used them a few times with no complaints

    Best is probably to hire someone in Galway to go over to Dublin, pick up your stuff and bring it back.

    There is a few dodgy removal companies out there, definitely take peoples recommendations. Same story as you OP except friends of mine got stung with a company that knew the removal van was too small, who then drove to meet them for 3 hours and still wanted to be paid.

    I used these guys last year when I thought it wouldn't be economical to pick up a large couch in Dublin. Submitted request and bids came rolling in. Didn't pick the cheapest, picked a highly reviewed, insured guy who had a helper. They showed up in a big truck and must collect up jobs across the country. Anyhow, was a brilliant service and got the job done for around 100 quid:
