A really well managed move. Thanks!

We hadn't moved house for a long time and were naturally concerned about how difficult it would be. DC Groves were really helpful and it soon became apparent that they knew precisely what they were doing and nothing was too much trouble even when it came to lifting furniture through an upstairs window. They just took everything in their stride and knew what would work. They took a lot of care loading, unloading and moving stuff around - nothing broken or scratched which was a relief as we packed ourselves. This is probably down to the loads of advice and guidance they gave about how to pack in to boxes safely. They were only a bit above the lowest quote we received so we couldn't have done any better.

We booked D C Groves to move us from Kent to Shropshire. The whole process from visiting to quote to follow up call after our move was a dream. A lovely and pleasant team to work with. The guys on move days were professional, polite, respectful, prepared and a joy to have around. Thank you to the whole team.

We chose Groves as they were able to move us over 2 days when other companies wanted 3 days. The team were very pleasant and efficient and carried out the removals under the most horrendous weather. They then had a very difficult journey to Portsmouth but were with us the next day bright and early as promised. They wrapped up our delicates very well and we didn't have any breakages. A couple of the boxes did get wet which couldn't be helped but the team waited while we checked the contents and they were happy that no damage had been done. All in all we were very pleased with the service we received which was carried out within the time frame and price quoted.

We have just moved from Kent to Dorset with Tenterden Removals /D C Groves. The quotation process was fast and efficient and they provided a very competitive quote. Moving is not cheap but we decided to go with the packing and move option. Well worth it ! The move out day although stressful was alleviated by a prompt arrival as agreed. John ( our move manager ) and the great lads got on with the packing and worked very hard. They were cheerful, courteous and packed our belongings with the utmost care. On move in day, after a very early start for them, John and the team arrived on time. They quickly and carefully moved all our belongings into our new house. Nothing was too much trouble. Having not moved for 20 years and approached the whole process with some trepidation. We were very pleased with John and the team and would not hesitate to recommend them to others. Just one learning opportunity, from the quote to the move day we had sent a couple of e mails re the status of the exchange as we did not want to lose our 'slot' and later also making slight amendments to the items we were taking. We did not receive much of a response so we would recommend better and more friendly communications via e mail or phone from their head office. That said as we now sit in our new home, we are pleased we chose Tenterden Removals/ D C Groves.

D C Groves & Son were very responsive from the start, arranging a survey quickly and providing a quotation efficiently. The removal team arrived on time, were very courteous and humorous. They packed the house during the day, taking good care of the furniture and effects and proved very amiable and conscientious. A first-class service - highly recommended!

D C Groves moved the contents of my second floor London flat to Kent. The company quoted promptly for the work and were extremely professional throughout the process, responding to queries quickly and efficiently. On the day of the move the van arrived well on time. The removal team were polite and friendly, they worked hard and took great care loading and unloading the van and nothing was too much trouble, nothing was marked or damaged. I have no hesitation in recommending this company.

I received an excellent service from this reputable company, from the initial assessment through to the day of removal. Andrew and his two colleagues Andrew and Gavin were both professional and personable, collecting my belonging from storage to my flat in two days and done to the agreed schedule. They packed my belongings carefully and went the extra mile to ensure my move went smoothly and all while dealing with an unreasonable neighbour! I would highly recommend this company.
