About the Business
Sooner or later everyone has to move house. Just within living memory the very oldest amongst us may recall moving house and piling furniture in to the back of a horse-drawn cart or van. For most of us however moving has meant calling a modern removal firm to collect our tables and chairs, TVs and fridges and take them away in a high sided motor van especially designed for the job.
Around Liverpool one of the most familiar sights are the vans of the removal firm of John Mason International Ltd. And if you aren't old enough to recall removals being made by horse-drawn vehicles there were certainly many members of the Mason family whose memories went so far back.
The company was founded in 1884 by Mrs Mary Mason in Wavertree, a township then on the outskirts of Liverpool. Before starting out on her own Mary Mason had earlier helped her husband John in his carting business. When Mary's son, also John, began helping her in 1887 coal deliveries became the main activity.
