Wilson B J & Sons

Alan Stephenson soon realised that looking after new furniture was a skilled job and basically learned his trade in the early days. Alan realised that there was a gap in the removals market and decided to expand into the quality removal sector. After securing a business loan and gaining a Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC), and Operators Licence, the first full sized Removals Lorry was obtained. It was a 12.5 ton Bedford. This was the vehicle of choice for the next 10 years. Old and dated but really reliable!

In 1993 we joined the National Guild of Removers and Storers and as such are founding members; we have consistently received their excellence awards for our high standards. A J Stephenson moved into the Containerised storage business, a growth area that was relatively new at the time. After much negotiating the first warehouse was up and running, based at Blunts Wall, Billericay.
