Feroz provided the best experience I've had! I hired Feroz to unload items, but they happily stayed to help with several other tasks too. My delivery was late, which gave me anxiety, but they were incredibly understanding and kind. and very hard working and considered. As a single female living alone, I immediately felt safe, relaxed, and at ease. I already plan on using them again and highly recommend them to everyone.

Reorganising and moving heavy equipment and shelving in a garage

£200

Elm Park, Greater London

12th Sep 2026

I need two careful and reliable people to help reposition heavy furniture and equipment within my ground-floor garage studio in Hornchurch, RM12. Nothing is being transported to another address and there is no rubbish or disposal required. The work includes: • Carefully lifting several 3D printers off their benches/shelving and placing them somewhere safe temporarily • Turning one heavy 180 × 60 cm workbench by 90 degrees • Repositioning two 120 × 45 cm garage shelving units • Moving two smaller 90 × 45 cm shelving units • Moving a Kallax unit against another wall • Returning the printers to their planned positions once the furniture has been moved The printers are valuable and must remain upright and be handled carefully. Some are large and heavy, so this is a two-person job. I will disconnect them before you arrive. No van is required. No rubbish removal, clearing or major shelving assembly is required. The room is on the ground floor and all items remain within the same room. Please confirm: • That your offer includes two people • Your estimated completion time • That you have experience moving heavy furniture and fragile equipment • Whether your offer includes all Airtasker fees.

Highly recommend these guys. Excellent communication prior to the day and I got a message on the day to confirm that they were on their way. They arrived on time and were very polite and helpful. The finished the job quickly and helped me with an extra task of putting a few items into the loft.
