Bill Lambert11/08/2023Second hand shop with lots of interesting stock. Easy parking outside.
Simon Bowden06/08/2023We recently utilised Shambles services after they were recommended to us. On both occasions, Val, Chris and Nathan were polite, professional and pleasant to deal with. On the first occasion, they helped us out at very short notice. We wouldn’t hesitate to call upon their services again. We have already recommended Shambles to our neighbours. Thanks for the great service.

Fabrice Wahl21/03/2023The Shambles team performed a great job yesterday - a quite big house clearance in Rowlands Castle which wasn't pleasant as it was raining all day. Despite this they remained in good spirits throughout and got everything loaded up and safely away. They clearly are experienced in the correct way to dismantle beds, move pianos etc. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again or recommend them. It's good to know that Val may be able to find a home for some items through the shop rather than see everything thrown away. The whole process from the initial meeting with Chris, through emails - and on the day - was marked with flexibility on their part and a very friendly manner ....

Colin Harding13/02/2023Shambles moved our home from Chandlers Ford to Sherborne in Dorset. Throughout the whole process the entire team were great. The day before the move my wife was taken to hospital. A quick call to Val and she provided additional help at a moments notice, no dramas. On the day the move went extremely smoothly and the whole team were extremely helpful and paid great attention to detail. I would highly recommend Shambles for removal and also recommend the addition of the house clearance for those items you don't want to take with you.
“We recently have had to sell my mum’s house after she moved into a Care Home and clear out all of her furniture and items no longer needed. This included my dad’s sheds and these were full to the rafters with bits and bobs! Gordon could not have been more respectful, helpful and well priced! Very happy to be able to recommend Shambles.”

“Oh me and my partner love browsing round this lovely shop it’s an Aladdin’s cave lots of things to look at I was looking for some bed side cabinets and found 2 that fitted the bill very nicely.”

“Would highly recommend Shambles for house clearances. They cleared my uncle’s house to a great standard (they even vacuumed) and were so friendly, hard working and courteous. And although we don’t live in the area, they kept us informed with everything and even sent pictures once the work was done. The price was also very reasonable. Big thanks to Chris, your friendliness made it all so much easier!”

“We used Shambles for a house move just over a week ago now. They were really helpful and worked really hard to help make our move a success.
Val Chris and Harry spared no effort on the day. The fact that they were able to un-plumb all our white goods at one end and plumb them in at the other end was especially appreciated. Thanks again to Val and all the team at Shambles.”
Sue
“Have just used Shambles for our house removals. They have been outstanding. Chris, Harry and John were nothing but polite and professional, despite a really long and hard days work. They couldn’t do more to help us and made our move a very smooth process. They also were able to slot us in last minute which was very much appreciated.”
Helen
“The Shambles team recently moved me. Couldn’t have been more helpful – wonderful service and would highly recommend to anyone. It was a big move for me after many years so really appreciated their help.”
