I feel I need to comment with regards to the review left by "V" below. There were no lists or we weren't given any! The items were meant to be labelled which they weren't so if we don't ask how is anyone meant to know as her items were being delivered to 2 destination. Therefore needed to be loaded correctly. Her partner said he was there to help (30seconds later both disappeared the the cafe for 90mins) again how do you load if you don't know what is and isn't going. He then disappeared to sheff and she with her bad attitude went and sat in the car like lady of the Manor. Then 2 fish tanks half full with water still . I'd have left them as they were fit for the skip as most of here items were. Giving it the big attitude and tutting. When we arrived at destination she turns up and goes upstairs to bed having done 30 secs of work. He's bullied and she thinks she's top draw. Set of scruffs not £10 between em. Get a life love and it should have been booked as a waste job I wouldn't have put ya gear in my house. And going straight upstairs to rest ya big head was right idea as ya bloke didn't want you moving in! As for damages there wasn't any how would you notice it was rubbish anyway. And my colleague did apologise to your partner why I don't know but it wasn't a jayday so he's not used to it. I'm used to 50 plus hour weeks that's why I've left. Keep ya review love and all those flys in ya windows ya minger oioi.
We moved with Hero on the first Tuesday of the Easter holidays. Honestly, I cannot recommend this company highly enough. The two men that came to do our move were absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond with their service. They were incredibly polite, efficient and careful with the packing and handling of my belongings. I was also able to add on an extra hour to my package, where they helped my husband build up and position large furniture . Absolutely outstanding service at an excellent price point.
James and Dan were amazing with my move across the valley. They were professional, cheerful and respectful of all my belongings. I cannot praise them enough. Many thanks guys and thank you to Matthew for arranging it all at such short notice. Merry Christmas to all the team.
Helped me move today for a very reasonable price! Super friendly, handy and did all the heavy lifting. They were early/ on time which was brilliant. Thank you. Highly recommend.
Used to move house both in both Dec 2020 and Nov 2025. Highly recommended. Admin very efficient when booking. Jay and Tim friendly and grafted hard on moving day. Cost effective too.
Fantastic service from Tim & Marshall, they helped us move from a 3 bed to a 4 bed 10 minutes away. They made the moving day as stress free as possible and made us feel so at easy. Cannot recommend them enough. THANK YOU!!

Removals Across Barnsley
Move in Pogmoor
We completed a removal of a bed base and mattress in the quiet suburb of Pogmoor for a customer.
Our experienced team handled these bulky items with no worries, safely navigating the furniture through the property and loaded it into our van using protective straps and covers to ensure smooth transport.
After arriving at the new property, we unloaded all belongings safely and carefully placed all items where the customer asked.
Hemingfield Completed!
Our team did a great job of this home removal in Hemingfield. We started off the day by heading to the village of High Green where we loaded a surplus of moving boxes filled with several mixed household items.
After a brief check to see if anything else was left in the property, we loaded all items and made sure they were secured.
Without hesitation, we transported all belongings to a terraced property in Hemingfield, where we unloaded all possessions and safely placed them in the rooms the customer asked.
Neighbourhood Welcome from Redbrook
We started off this local moving job by heading to a local self-storage facility, where we navigated all possessions including furniture and other household items out of the building smoothly.
Using our moving trolleys, we loaded all belongings with relative ease and secured them professionally using our straps, ensuring no shifting throughout the journey.
After arriving at the property in the lovely neighbourhood of Redbrook, we carefully unloaded all the heavy furniture with our expertise and made sure they were in the correct place.
Thurgoland Triumph
Both of our low-loaders were in action for this home removal in Thurgoland as our team professionally managed another moving day.
We started off by using our spacious and fully-equipped vans to safely load all belongings, which were secured with our protective equipment
After smooth transportation to the new home, we unloaded all items and placed them where the customer asked.
2 Low Loaders for Penistone Move!
Both our low loaders were back on assignment for a moving day in Penistone where we helped a local customer. Our two Heroes got straight to work, carrying an on-site review before loading all items safely from household to garden belongings.
Using our protective equipment, we smoothly secured every possession with our moving straps and covers.
On arrival at the new property, we had a conversation with the customer who kindly requested where they wanted everything to go. We then unloaded and carefully placed each item where the customer asked.
Return to Penistone!
Our low loader was back in the town of Penistone as we helped another customer with their moving day.
Before beginning the job, we kindly messaged the customer our estimated arrival time. Once we arrived, we got straight to work by first assessing the site to make sure there was a clear path. After this was completed, we safely began by loading all belongings such as household furniture and appliances into our van.
Smooth transport is a priority for Hero as we secured every possession with moving straps and protective covers. We then smoothly headed to the new home, unloading and placing everything exactly where requested.
Village of Elsecar
We recently completed a part house move in the village of Elsecar, where we helped a customer relocate a selection of larger furniture to their new home.
Unlike a full home removal, this job focused specifically on the safe handling and transport of furniture, which in this case was sofas and a heavy cabinet. Using PPE and our team of two movers, we managed to use proper lifting techniques to safely load everything.
Furniture relocations are a popular option for customers who can handle the smaller, less awkward items on their own, but may need professional help with the lifting and transport of those bulky belongings. At Hero, we used the right equipment and techniques to smoothly get every possession to where it needed to be.
Millhouse Green
The latest for the Heroes was a full removal of a 6 bedroom house in the small, quiet village of Millhouse Green, where we helped a local customer with their move.
Due to this moving day involving a larger load, two of our fleet and team of four movers safely handled the loading and unloading of multiple bulky furniture, appliances and miscellaneous household and garden items. Using safe lifting techniques and clear access to carefully get every item where it needed to be.
Before transport, we made sure the van was stacked well and safely, securing every belonging with blankets and straps. We then set off to the new home and unloaded all possessions smoothly and where the customer requested.
Wombwell to Elsecar!
Next up for the Heroes was the sunny town of Wombwell where we helped a customer manage their entire moving day.
In this removal, our team of two movers safely navigated all types of belongings out of the property. From furniture to moving boxes and miscellaneous household items in between.
Before transport, we double checked with the customer to see if everything was accounted for and secured all items with straps.
We then parked in a suitable area, and smoothly unloaded everything which was then positioned where asked by the customer.
