Glyn Upton Removals in short
Glyn Upton Removals offers domestic, commercial, international and piano moves with packing, storage and unpacking from Cluddley, and claims over ninety years of moving experience. Three offices cover Telford, Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton, with phone, email and form routes in. Our view: Glyn Upton suits a household or business move where a broad service range from an established local name matters. Piano moves and unpacking sit alongside the standard load, which widens the brief it can take.
The record shows domestic, commercial, international and piano removals with packing, home de-cluttering, transport, storage and unpacking from Cluddley [1]. Three offices cover Telford, Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton, with local, national and international moves, reached by phone, email and web form [2]. De-cluttering beside the removals suits a move that must shed volume first.
Customers rate Glyn Upton 4.5 from 83 Google reviews. Counting against it, no insurance or liability detail is published on the pages checked, and its guild certification is stated without certificate detail. The company record itself is long and active, which supports the identity behind the name. For a firm claiming over ninety years of moving experience, the review base reads thinner than the history suggests.
Our judgement is that Glyn Upton suits a broad brief arranged by phone: the range is among the widest in the round, while the unpublished cover detail keeps it sixth.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Glyn Upton suits a household or business move where an established local firm with a broad service range matters [1][3]. The public record supports its identity and trading history, while cover detail is unpublished, so the quote carries that part [3][1].

Questions about Glyn Upton Removals
Is Glyn Upton Removals any good?
On the evidence, yes for a broad brief: sixth in our table with 4.5 from 83 Google reviews, covering domestic, commercial, international and piano moves with storage. Three offices stand behind the name. De-cluttering and unpacking widen the booking beyond the load itself. Send your inventory by phone or form for a quote.
Is Glyn Upton Removals in a removals trade body?
National Guild of Removers certification is stated on its own website, with no BAR membership claimed and no certificate detail. The claim traces to a years-old blog post rather than a certificate page, so ask for current papers. Ask for the certification papers with your quote. Get the insurance position in the same writing, and keep both with the quote.
What does Glyn Upton Removals charge?
Quotes come by phone, with prices described as affordable and great value — but no rates or VAT terms are published. The quote does the talking. Packing, storage and unpacking each add to the figure, so name them in the first call. Ask for the itemised figure on your inventory and confirm what packing, storage and unpacking add.
How do I get a quote from Glyn Upton Removals?
By phone to the Telford, Shrewsbury or Wolverhampton number, by email, or through the website enquiry form. Prices are described as affordable with no rates published, so the call sets the figure. List every room, the piano if one travels, and any packing, storage or unpacking needs before you ring.
Where does Glyn Upton Removals work?
From Cluddley in Telford, with offices in Telford, Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton behind the name. Local, national and international moves are all offered, with piano work in the same brief. Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton numbers reach the same firm, so use whichever office sits nearest. Send both postcodes with your inventory to confirm which office handles your route and what the international leg adds.
How is Glyn Upton Removals ranked?
It ranks sixth of nine in our September round, carried by range and history; unpublished cover detail holds it back. We looked first at customer evidence. The guild certification claim lacks checkable detail, which costs a range this broad. Read the full review, then ask for the quote in writing before you decide.
