Founded in 1928 by Jack Hadley and Herbert Ottaway and a single van, Hadley & Ottaway began offering a service that is now nearly 100 years old.
Just over a decade later, the company offered its growing fleet of box vans to the war effort, transporting RAF pilots and their equipment. In the 1970s, the company was bought by Leo Palmer before, in 2004 a management buy out, led by myself, resulted in the company being relocated to purpose built premises in the heart of Norfolk.
Today Hadley & Ottaway remains a family owned company with eleven vehicles and an expert team of 30, all employed and fully trained to ensure the removal is completed efficiently and safely.
At Hadley & Ottaway everyone cares about your move. Our outstanding customer care and expertise has led to a large number of referrals and repeat clients.
Many of the removals and office staff have been with the company for years and really understand just how important it is to make sure that everything goes smoothly with your relocation. Our experience means that we can make moving home or office as seamless as possible, relieving you of any stress or worry during the moving period.
Unlike many other removal companies we go that extra mile such as the storing of plants and pots in our bespoke plastic bins and allocating one of our senior staff to drive your car to your new home so you don’t have the stress of having to do so.
At Hadley & Ottaway we have a rigid green policy meaning we use recycled materials wherever possible and recycle as much of the packaging that we can’t reuse. Our ‘Green Policy’ which means we not only buy in materials that have been recycled but send a lot of our own used materials away for recycling.
