* 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. The RD Score is our internal quality metric 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 checked the Google Business Profile for rating information; the full review count and texts were not read at time of listing.

Over 125 years of experience claimedNational and international coverageLong-established brand nameMultiple warehousing SIC codes

Robinsons Relocation is one of the oldest incorporated removal companies in the UK, dating back to 1966 with a brand history claimed since 1895. The limited company has undergone multiple name changes over its 60-year history. The company holds three SIC codes covering both removal services and warehousing across land, water and air transport, which is unusual and suggests a substantial operation. The full review corpus was not read during this verification pass. The 'since 1895' claim on the website could not be verified against the incorporation date, which is why it sits in the advertised column.

Before you book, ask for these six things

  1. The insurance schedule, not a summaryGoods in Transit and public liability, with the policy number and cover amount, valid on your moving date. Any firm can say “fully insured”; the schedule is proof.
  2. A written quote that states what is includedPacking materials, fuel, congestion and ULEZ charges, stairs, waiting time. The most common complaint in this industry is a price that grows on moving day.
  3. Deposit terms in writingAmount, when it is taken, and refund conditions. If the firm belongs to the BAR, deposits are additionally protected by their Advance Payment Guarantee.
  4. Who will actually turn upAsk directly: is this job subcontracted, and if so, to whom? The name on the van should match the name on your contract.
  5. What happens past the quoted hoursMany quotes are “2 people and a van” with a minimum charge (often 3 hours). What rate applies after that, and when does it start counting? Get it in writing before moving day.
  6. A name and number match Especially with this company: the contract name, phone number and address should match the registered details (company number 00892632, 22a Bartleet Road, Washford, Redditch, Worcestershire B98 0DG, ).

Memberships

We checked the public member directories of the three bodies that matter in UK removals on 24 August 2026:

BARNot a memberCode of Practice, regular inspections, Advance Payment Guarantee on deposits
NGRSNot a memberCode of Practice, quality monitoring
FIDINot a memberFAIM certification, audited international standard; mainly for overseas moves
What this means for you: as a consumer in the UK, you are always protected by the Ombudsman Scheme if a dispute with a service provider cannot be resolved directly - this applies to every removal company, regardless of membership. Trade body memberships add an extra layer: a Code of Practice to hold the company to, regular inspections, and (for BAR members) deposit protection. They are a small positive signal, not a necessity. Most UK removal firms hold no memberships, and fees run to thousands a year which smaller firms often spend on the job itself.

Frequently asked questions

Is Robinsons Relocation legit?

Yes, as far as public records show. Removal Dude independently verified 6 facts about Robinsons Relocation against outside sources: Companies House records, public review platforms and trade body directories. Robinsons Relocation appears at Companies House under company number 00892632, incorporated 24 November 1966. Robinsons Relocation scores 78/100 on the Removal Dude score with a verdict of Check Before Booking, last checked 24 August 2026.

Is Robinsons Relocation insured?

Robinsons Relocation advertises insurance cover, but insurance on this listing is an advertised claim, not an independently verified fact. The UK has no public register of removals insurance, so no outside checker can confirm cover from records alone. Before booking, ask for the policy schedule itself: policy number, what it covers, the amount, valid on your moving date. Any firm can say it is fully insured; the schedule is the proof.

Is Robinsons Relocation BAR registered?

No. Robinsons Relocation is not a member of the British Association of Removers (BAR); Removal Dude checked the BAR public member directory on 24 August 2026 and found no entry. BAR membership is voluntary and most UK removal firms hold none; it adds a Code of Practice, inspections and deposit protection, so treat it as a small positive signal, not a requirement.
