About Us

Based in the Cotswolds, we’ve been taking care of customers’ moving and storage needs for over 40 years. Our reputation speaks for itself, which is why our customers always return and recommend us to others.

Cotswold Carriers is a traditional family business, which is why you can rest assured we will treat your property as we would our own. Now in our second generation of family ownership, we still take the same pride in everything we do to keep up the good name and reputation the company has so carefully built up over the years.

Founded in 1978 by Bill Cooper, Cotswold Carriers is currently managed by his son Dean. Dean grew up within the removals industry and worked his way up through the ranks of his fathers firm, as is the hope for his sons.

Many of our staff have been with us for over 20 years - with some having worked for Cotswold Carriers as long as the current owner - and retaining a loyal, friendly team is one of the most important things to us. With every driver responsible for their own assigned vehicle we feel this level of trust reflects in the service we provide to our customers..

As a member of the British Association of Removers (BAR) you can feel confident that when you employ any of our removal services, you are using a reputable, professional and financially protected company. All BAR Members are also monitored by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute.

What our Clients Say

  • This is to thank you and your team for the great service you provided moving and storing our stuff over the last year.  It was all very efficient and friendly and I’m very grateful.
  • I just wanted to say how happy we were with the service given by the men who moved me last Friday. The two men who first arrived had to send out for extra help from two more, as the job was unexpectedly tough. They were extremely professional, tackled a really challenging job with unfailing good humour, and went quite a few “extra miles” with their attention to detail.
  • I’m emailing to say a huge thank you for managing our house move so well. From quote to closing our new front door, everyone has been so helpful and your communication with us has been brilliant. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more, had a better service or be happier. Thank you so much - you totally took the stress out of moving. We will be recommending you to everyone!

  • Just a note to say how pleased we were with our move in August.  Your guys were as efficient, unabtrusive, polite and extremely pleasant as usual. We can never fault them. They were punctual and incredibly professional. What more can I say?! We have used you so many times and are never disappointed. We will always recommend you wholeheartedly.

  • Cotswold carriers have recently carried out our removal from our home of 25 years in London. In the run-up to the move, the team in the office couldn’t have been more flexible and helpful, even though we had to change our dates a couple of times. On the day, the team turned up from Kingham, at our house in central London, on the dot.
