Accreditations & Awards

Sterling Sinclair Removals are proud of the outstanding reputation that we have in the industry as a result of our high quality of work and standards.  We are a fully accredited member of the NGRS (National Guild of Removers & Storers) and have been awarded the prestigious ‘’Perfect Record Award’’ from the Removal Industry Ombudsman in 2020.  We have also been awarded this accolade again in January 2021. So double perfect record awards, we are so proud of this achievement.

The removal industry is prone to complaints and winning this award was no mean feat.  We highly encourage all consumers to use an NGRS accredited removals company just like ourselves so that you can best protect yourself and enjoy a positive experience.

Dear Neil,

Firstly our congratulations and thanks to you and all the staff for putting in the quality controls and effort to win the new Removals Industry Ombudsman Scheme sponsored “Perfect Record Award”. For your further information, we have been instrumental in encouraging The Removals Industry Ombudsman Scheme to make this award.

Through his introduction of The Perfect Record Award, The Removals Industry Ombudsman wishes to publicly acknowledge Scheme member’s against whom he had made no compensatory awards in more than a year. His intention is to continue with The Perfect Record Awards year on year and so encourage a quality of service that enhances consumer protection.

In the removals industry, that’s prone to complaints, winning this award is no mean feat. In fact, you will be in an exclusive group of less than 100 removal businesses that have won it and remember there are around 4,500 removal businesses in the UK.

All Ombudsman are independent of the industries in which they operate and are under the supervision of The Trading Standards Institute. Therefore we believe that your Perfect Record Award will, if you explain its meaning to potential customers, enhance your reputation and win you business. After all you are often asking a stranger to trust you with the safe and timely transport of their treasured possessions so an independent certification of what is in effect your proficiency and reliability must be of help.

In closing, we intended, along with The Ombudsman, to present the “Perfect Record” Ombudsman Award at events during April but, as due to the Corona Virus that’s no longer possible, we have chosen to email you your award certificate so it starts helping you win business immediately.

Best regards

Geoff Salt
(Director National Guild of Removers & Storers)

Why Use an Accredited Company?

The first thing to look for when choosing a removals company is to ensure that they are fully accredited and well respected within the industry.  The easiest way to find this out is to perform background checks and ensure they are NGRS, BAR and Move Assured accredited before going any further.  In particular, the NGRS is an established body that was formed to specifically protect consumers from exploitation within the industry.  Here at Sterling Sinclair Removals, we are long-serving members of the NGRS and continue to follow all membership guidelines and take part in a number of compulsory procedures.  Just a few of these include;-

  • Ombudsman Code of Practice.
  • Ombudsman Approved Inspection Procedures.
  • Ombudsman Approved Quality Monitoring Programme.
  • Compulsory Membership to the Removals Industry Ombudsman Scheme.
  • Ombudsman Scheme Approved Complaints Procedures.

Benefits of Choosing a Guild Member

According to the Guild, 98% of customer feedback for Guild members was positive.  You no longer have to waste time browsing the internet and searching through review platforms when you have stats like that in front of your eyes!  All Guild members are quality professionals that provide a high-quality service at an affordable and fair price.  It’s very important to us at Sterling Sinclair Removals that we are viewed in the vein and part of such a highly thought-of and accredited body.

Just like all Guild members, we offer customers a superb package of consumer protection measures that are designed to promote quality and protect your belongings throughout the full process.  We are inspected annually and always pass all checks which provides all of our customers the ultimate peace of mind knowing that they will be in the best hands with Sterling Sinclair Removals.

What does it mean to be a National Guild of Removers?

The National Guild of Removers and Storers exists to protect consumers and to constantly monitor its members. It has a rigorous code of practice by which members must abide, and it regularly carries out checks on members to ensure that they are adhering to the highest standards. Since joining, Sterling Sinclair Removals has consistently been an ‘Excellence Awarded Member’ and in 2020 we were personally awarded the perfect record accolade, with zero complaints.
