Nominet registration gives the one hard date before incorporation. The RDAP record for oisremovals.co.uk shows registration on 3 September 1999 and expiry on 3 September 2029, three years and six months before OIS REMOVALS LIMITED was incorporated on 4 March 2003, which supports trading under this name before the limited company existed, though no archived page from those years survives to show it. A third party YouTube video of 12 February 2010 describes Ois Removals Ltd as a London firm with over 10 years and 10,000 removals worth of experience and links this domain, which is the company's own copy rather than an independent date but is consistent with the story.

The company's own ProvenExpert listing names the wixsite, weebly and strikingly sites as its own websites, and the fourth satellite, the webnode page, repeats the same marketing copy and deep links back to oisremovals.co.uk, so these are the company's estate rather than rivals, but two of them give a customer no legal entity to match against.Four satellite domains fetched directly and the ProvenExpert profile, read 27 September 2026

The company's own reply to Which? Trusted Traders in February 2017 states that it carried out in excess of 1,000 removals in the past 12 months, which is consistent with a four figure annual volume and with a total in the high tens of thousands over three decades, so the order of magnitude holds even though the printed figures do not.Company home, about and house removals pages, AIM profile and Which?

As advertised by the company

Established in 1997, with over 29,000 removals completed, or over 30,000, or over 25,000The company's own pages disagree with each other and with the Association of Independent Movers profile that carries its copy. Companies House puts incorporation at 4 March 2003 and Nominet puts the domain at 3 September 1999, so 1997 is the trading story rather than a registry date and nothing we could read dates the business to 1997. Read 27 September 2026. As advertised.

Insurance of up to 1,000 pounds included with storage, plus free goods in transit cover with the excess met by the companyStorage page wording, read 27 September 2026, and the free goods in transit claim in the company's own Which? Trusted Traders reply of 23 February 2017. No underwriter, no policy number, no period of cover and no public liability amount appear anywhere we could read, and the United Kingdom keeps no public register of removals cover, so this can never be marked verified. Ask for a current schedule with amounts, dates and the excess named before any money moves. As advertised.

A fleet of seven removal vehicles and a company owned storage warehouseThe trader description on the Which? Trusted Traders profile, which is the company's own words, read 27 September 2026. There is no public register of vehicle fleets in the United Kingdom, so neither the number of vehicles nor the ownership of the building can be checked from outside. Reviews do describe multi van moves and a 20 foot container, which supports the fleet existing. As advertised.

A modern, fully insured, CCTV, alarmed and red care protected storage warehouse in Tooting, London SW17, with personal and business storage, storage units in Wimbledon, free removal blankets and heavy plastic for soft furnishings, and a promise to beat any storage provider's price and collect the goods from themCompany storage page, read 27 September 2026. Nobody has inspected the building for us and no capacity, alarm or monitoring record could be checked, and a price beating promise has no published price to beat it against. As advertised.

The review corpus is consistent with a standing crew, because the same names, Vish, Jay, Dharmendra, Timmy and Lewin, appear across 2023 and 2024 reviews, but that is corroboration rather than proof. As advertised.

* What “verified” means here: we checked public records and read the review platforms ourselves on the dates shown. We never accept a company's own words as verification, and we never let a company pay to change a verdict. Our assessment is built from review substance, freshness and authenticity; it is not a rating the company can buy or influence. When claimed profiles open, companies will be able to upload documents (insurance schedules, policies) and items will move from “advertised” to “verified” automatically once parsed.

What people love about this company

We read every review on both public platforms for this company end to end, because the corpus is small enough that reading a sample of it would be pointless. Two sweeps of the Google profile, one at depth 100 sorted newest and one at depth 100 sorted lowest rating, each returned exactly 35 reviews, which is the number of votes the profile shows, so the pagination hides nothing; they run from 19 March 2013 to 7 September 2026 and Google's own breakdown, 31 five star, 2 four star, 0 three star, 0 two star and 2 one star, matches the distribution we counted. Three of the 35 carry a reply from the company. On Trustpilot the profile holds 4 reviews at 4.0 out of 5, we read all four, and the breakdown is 3 five star and 1 four star with none below four stars. Both complaints that exist across the two platforms are printed below in full, each with the company's reply.

Across 39 reviews read in full (35 Google at 4.7 and 4 Trustpilot at 4.0, read September 2026), 95 per cent rate four or five stars, both one star reviews carry company replies, and the corpus spans 2013 to September 2026. The praise is repeat custom heavy: customers on their second to fifth moves, crews named by name, and careful handling of awkward items. The corpus is small, so the checklist questions carry extra weight.

Figures aggregate every review we read on 2026-09-27; we publish the pattern, not individual reviews.

OIS REMOVALS LIMITEDThe subject of this listing. Active private limited company incorporated 4 March 2003, registered office 29 Fairway, Carshalton Beeches, Surrey SM5 4HR, trading from Unit 61, Wimbledon Stadium Business Centre, Riverside Road, London SW17 0BA, phone 020 8944 9713, website oisremovals.co.uk, run by Oisin Liam Hoare and Gloria Hoare. Companies House, Google, Which? Trusted Traders, AIM and the company site all read 27 September 2026.

The oisremovals YouTube channel and the Manchester operation it advertisesNot a legal person we could identify. The London company's own footer links to video OOw3kctXHDQ, published on 16 February 2010 by a channel named oisremovals and titled man and van removals in manchester ,liverpool and now london, whose description sends readers to www.oisremovals.webs.com for a Manchester quote. That domain no longer resolves, the channel is separate from the official Oisremovalslondon channel the company also links, and nothing on the page names company 04685497, so we cannot tell from outside whether the same firm ran a Manchester operation or whether a different trader used the name. YouTube oEmbed, the watch page and DNS lookups, read 27 September 2026.

Before you book, match three things to this listing: company number 04685497, Unit 61, Wimbledon Stadium Business Centre, Riverside Road, London SW17 0BA, and 020 8944 9713. Six domains carry this trading name and all six publish that same number, so the number is the fastest check you have; three of them, the main site, the Mailchimp site and the Webnode and Wix sites, also print company registration 04685497 in the footer, while the Weebly and Strikingly sites print only the number and the address, with no legal entity at all. The registered office on the Companies House file is 29 Fairway, Carshalton Beeches SM5 4HR, so do not be surprised when the paperwork quotes a Surrey address and the van says SW17. The Google profile writes the building as 59 to 60 rather than Unit 61, which is the same postcode and the same site. And the footer's YouTube link leads to a 2010 Manchester video and a domain that no longer exists, which we could not tie to this company.

Is OIS REMOVALS LIMITED insured?

This listing records the cover as advertised, never as verified, because the United Kingdom keeps no public register of removals insurance. The company publishes one figure, insurance of up to 1,000 pounds included with storage with the option to raise it, and states in a public reply to Which? Trusted Traders that it offers free goods in transit cover and meets the excess itself. No underwriter, no policy number and no period of cover appear anywhere we could read on 27 September 2026, and no amount is published for the move itself. Before booking, ask for a current schedule with policy number, amounts and dates valid on your moving date.
