We moved from Canberra to Sydney and had shipping containers that went into storage for a few days in between. . Dealing with Hitchens has been easy and the guys that came to do the moving were professional and conscientious. The price was excellent. I would highly recommend.

Their friendly manner, made a stressful time so much easier for us. Thank you to everyone at Hitchens Paul and Brigitte

Listen, it’s storage, so let’s not gush too much or it’ll sound like I work for them but…. If I am to have an opinion then it’s this: The storage facility is A1, individually alarmed, with clean modern storage units, their facility looks like a shiny new penny. Price; keenly priced against the rest and discounts for long term unit holders means even better value if you choose Hitchens. Rules and staff; standard stuff mostly but they do make it feel like a family run business in that they can bend a little more than the larger companies because there’s less management. The people are very very very friendly, full of help and thorough so you’ll have no gaps in knowing what you can or can’t do. Cardboard boxes; this is the only let down, the boxes Hitchens provide are a bit flimsy, which means you can’t put much weight in them. That said, there may have been other options Hitchens had that I didn’t choose, so that mistake would be kind of on me. Overall: it’s a 10/10 for Hitchens, and while I know the words perfect, excellent service and top notch have been bandied about so much on various recommendation sites so that those phrases have become somewhat meaningless, I can confidently say this, Hitchens are truly head and shoulders above other storage providers that I have used, and I’ve used most of the others including the large national chains.

We have no hesitation in recommending Hitchens Storage and Removals they are at the top of their field. Hitchens, last week, completed a removal for us. It was seamless and the boys doing the job, Alan and Warren, gave 110%. Nothing was too much trouble. Hitchens office staff were always available to answer questions and again all office staff rate 110%. The girls are pleasant, courteous and know their work. We urge anyone wanting a Removalist to use Hitchens they are a top company to deal with for both storage and removal. Cheryl & Wolfgang K.

Hi Trev, I would like to give your team a wrap on our recent move into the City from Penrith. Moving home isn't something my family and I were looking forward too we were actually dreading it. We had a lot to move into a much smaller place. City streets are not much fun, the boys had to manoeuvre the truck in a small lane way but the boys made it look easy. Then the fellas had four levels to unload our gear into which they did without fuss and delicately. They worked all day to get it done same day which we were super wrapped about. A huge thanks to all involved you made our move seamlessly, Regards, Nige & Renae Your staff from the office to the removalist were a pleasure to deal with

I used Hitchens to provide 3 storage units for 6 months and to do 3 moves. I arranged everything through Kelly and her office and they were excellent to deal with. Fair pricing, very good communication and flexible with arrangements. The removalists were also excellent. They arrived on time, took good care of everything and were pleasant to deal with. I have no hesitation in recommending Hitchens Storage and Removals.

5 stars does not fully express how amazing Hitchens were during our move. We opted for a fixed quote, which included a staff member doing a walk through of the house to ensure we got the right size truck for the move. Both professional and friendly in every interaction. Having been burned in the past from removalists, I was nervous, however I received a confirmation call the day before to confirm the start time of 7am the following day. Steven and his team arrived at exactly 7am and literally changed my mood from nervous to extremely grateful to have found such careful, committed and hardworking guys handling all my belongings. If you ever plan on moving house, Hitchens are the people you want handling your belongings every step of the way!!!

We recently used the Hitchens team for our move from Mulgoa to Springwood and it was a huge move from a large property. The day was long but they kept going and nothing was too much trouble. We had fair pricing from Siobhan and all of our belongings arrived intact, some of which are very fragile.We would definitely recommend Hitchens for your removals. A big THANK YOU to Robbo, Brad, Brock, Allan, Warren and Josh!

We stored our furniture at hitchens for just over a year while we were building a new home. From the day we first enquired about storage we found the ladies in the office very helpful and that continued until the day we left. They were the reason we chose hitchens together with the fact that they were by far the cleanest facility we visited. we would not hesitate to recommend hitchens .

Brock, Mick and Shane were amazing. They worked hard, and were safe and careful during our large move with a challenging site and some fragile items, not one breakage. Good communication from the office team when the 4th guy I booked was unwell, and excellent communication from the team when they were stuck in awful traffic, and various factors meant we finished the job the next day but they let me know that early in the process. Nothing was too much trouble for the boys, they set up our bed and even got Balboa into the front garden. They boys would take endless heavy boxes to the truck and jog back, trying to make up time, they could not have worked harder, and we had a few giggles too. Outstanding service overall, and clear and upfront about hourly rates and charges. Another company quoted me over double the hourly rate that Hitchens charged. Office staff were pleasant and knowledgeable, and booking was easy.
