The guys were great. I asked for two guys to come and help me move a 2-bed flat to a 3-bed house. They arrived early, moved all my furniture and boxes quickly into the van, then in at the other end. They had all the lifting/packing equipment, were careful and were done in less than 2 hours.

Extremely obliging and reliable - transported an American fridge freezer up to our top floor flat with no fuss or bother after the supplier's delivery team had declined. This was done promptly, and at a fair price. Martin was also very understanding when I was trying to arrange a subsequent replacement delivery - lots of to and fro, and he did not lose patience. Top notch! Highly recommended.

Martin was very professional and polite throughout the entire process. He stepped in at short notice when another moving agency stood us up and the price he quoted was still below that of the other agency, despite the added hassle of short notice. He turned up on the agreed time - or actually just before- and organised the entire move in a very efficient way. I can recommend Van Man Removals to anyone wanting secure, efficient and cost-effective noving services! We will certainly use them again next time.

Used Martin to move house recently and would absolutely recommend! Good comms re parking exemptions, turned up prompt , care taken with all elements, nothing damaged. My new place is up 21 steps and the team put in a really good shift, many thanks guys. So if you're moving, these are the guys to call, I've already booked them again to help install a pool table :-)

I've moved with Van Man Removals twice in the past few years and both times they were brilliant. Punctual, efficient and careful. Definitely would recommend.
