Vale Removals Cardiff moves to larger premises

Vale Removals has moved to larger new warehouse and office premises in Penarth Road, Cardiff.

The company, which was started 10 years ago by Gareth Hobbs and partner Emma Evans, has taken a five year lease on the 5,193 sq ft Unit 4 Llandough Trading Estate, Cardiff, at a rental rising to £23,369 per annum.

Knight Frank and Bilfinger GVA acted on behalf of Northwood in the letting.

Gareth Hobbs said: “We have gradually expanded to offer removals, packaging and storage services and the new premises enable us to bring all aspects of our work under one roof.”

“We have moved from just across the road and, with around 7,000 sq ft warehouse storage including the mezzanine, this is much bigger and better and enables us to continue to grow.

“This is a big step for the future of the business and we are hoping to take on another unit on the estate within the next 12 or 18 months.”

Llandough Trading Estate comprises 22 industrial units on a site of 16 acres in total. Neil Francis, who heads the Knight Frank industrial agency team in Cardiff said: “Investment by the landlord has helped secure this letting, and we also now have the 6,600 sq ft Unit 19 under offer, too.”

Tom Merrifield Head of Agency at Bilfinger GVA’s Cardiff office said “The letting to Vale Removals signals a stronger market and proves that well located estates can take advantage of the improved conditions where landlords are proactive in their approach to new tenants and lettings”.
