Who we are

We're an ethical, opinionated company.

Boxmove has been established since 2017 and has grown steadily year on year, now carrying out approx 175,000 furniture jobs per year. That’s a lot of furniture!

Our business is built on saving clients time and money, and increasing their sales by offering next-day service to their customers and supporters. 60-minute timeslots. Digtal Gift Aid. Online collection booking. Uniformed, friendly staff. It’s a great experience for everyone involved.

Ant is our travelling Recruitment and ER Manager. He recruits & assesses new employees, reports on current teams and works alongside our Operations teams to ensure Boxmove drivers are working to the correct standards day in day out.

Alastair Turner

Alastair Turner

Logistics Manager

Alastair is our Logistics Manager, corralling the team together to make sure every day is green rather than red. He is also a master rock climber, sadly not a skill that's useful in our office.

Andy Henderson-Sayers

Andy Henderson-Sayers

Regional Coordinator - North (& Deputy Logistics Manager)

Andy oversees our North based teams alongside his Deputy Manager role within the logistics team. Also our scheduling expert - this probably stems from his unhealthy obsession with Football Manager, player stats, and Liverpool FC.

Emma Hutchison

Emma Hutchison

Regional Coordinator - Midlands

Emma oversees our Midlands teams, as well as general logistics & recruitment support. Hailing from Plymouth, surprisingly she's more interested in vans than boats.

Arthur Papworth

Arthur Papworth

Regional Coordinator - West

Arthur oversees our West based teams, as well as being a keen sportsman. You'll either find him sorting out logistics issues, shouting at wayward youths on the football pitch (as a ref!) or putting his wrists to good use on the badminton courts.

Business Development

Izzy joins us from the lovely Hemel Hempstead, famous for its "Magic Roundabout" (look it up!). She'll be reaching out to current and potential clients for Boxmove.

Our values

A great team of people

We have been a Real Living Wage employer since we started. From the very outset we achieved profit through intelligence and technology, not through exploitation. We pay a higher salary than anyone else in this industry which means we have our pick of the best people, that leads to better service and less of our time on recruitment and staff management. All our staff are full-time employees, with generous holiday allowances and a staff bonus scheme.

Sustainability

We don’t lease vans. We have no debt. We don’t subcontract. We expand our team slowly and deliberately. We plan to be here in 20 years, providing a good income for our team, and a great service to clients. Our partnership with clients is long-term and we’re highly engaged in the charity retail sector - we have been Charity Retail Association members from the outset.
