Having not moved house for 22 years, we were very anxious in the leading weeks, Mike reassured me and was very patient with my queries. On the removal day Leon, Dean, Ryan and Alan completely took the stress out of the day for us. They were so careful removing furniture out of old house and into new and I would be very pleased to recommend Van Man Removals. Mike even gave me a discount for working for the NHS which was a nice gesture.

From the first contact, I had a professional service complete with a well-mannered, helpful and incredibly hardworking team of movers. It was a large and long move which was done with proficiency and good humour. The schedule was kept to, the budget was perfect, along with excellent communication, and I cannot praise this company highly enough.

Van Man Removals moved the contents of our 4-bedroom house to our new home efficiently and without any fuss or drama. We were impressed with all the communication, and the mammoth efforts of the team both packing and loading/unloading (not one thing broken or damaged!). The team were cheerful and respectful which was so welcome at such a stressful time. We’d recommend them to anyone without hesitation.

What a great team of guys! From the initial enquiry to the completion of my sister's house move I cannot fault Mike and his team. From the first telephone call and with very short notice, we experienced a very slick and professional quote/booking system, and regular contact up until the day of move, when 3 vans arrived on site and seamlessly loaded the furniture, making what we expected to be a very emotional day a lot less stressful. The team were polite and efficient and just got on with the job! I have no hesitation in recommending Mike and his team, they were brilliant from start to finish

I was really happy with our experience with Van Man Removals. The team arrived promptly and we’re all very pleasant. They moved all our furniture carefully and quickly and left no mess behind. I was also very happy the communication and customer service on the phone and through emails from first point of contact to completion. Absolutely would recommend and will use again if we required movers in the future.

We recently moved and used The Van Man's full packing service. They were excellent—we couldn't fault them. The team replied to any initial enquiries swiftly and completed the packing and move in just two days—all others quoted at least three. Their quote was very competitive. Nothing got broken or lost in the move. The men worked like Trojans but were polite and cheerful. Best removal service we've ever experienced.

Excellent service! The team moved an upright piano for me from Devon to Somerset. They were extremely professional, polite and approachable, and I was very pleased with the job that they did. Mike provided all the relevant information via email, and he was always quick to respond to any queries. Their pricing was also very competitive. Definitely a company that I would highly recommend! Thank you guys! :)

I was going to hire a van and do my move myself. I was moving a short distance within Topsham. On receipt of the leaflet about Van Man Exeter it was so refreshingly written, I called and got a quote the same morning. Packing boxes arrived the same day. On moving day Leon and his team of 3 arrived on time at 0930. By 1115 the job was done. They were professional, on time managed the tricky traffic challenges of Topsham really well. Final invoice was exactly as expected. What a brilliant team all round from owners to the team. I would like the recipe for the magic ingredient please. Chris H

From start to finish, these guys were fantastic. Strongly recommend them - competent, friendly, affordable and importantly no hidden fees or other common hassles. Quote - was transparent and easily arranged just by forwarding a video clip. Mike was very responsive and all the usual questions were answered in advance. They held the date for me despite not being able to place a deposit until (a late) Exchange. An when I had questions, there was also an office team I could always get through to with questions. Moving home - the guys were fantastic. Professional, on time and took care of property and contents. It was a long day (moving from London to Exeter) but they were quick and even pulled in other local teams. Invoice - no nasty surprises or extra add-on fees. The price was exactly as quoted.

I’m a disabled person who lives on my own. So when I needed to move from Exeter to Exmouth I wanted to use a removal company - this is the first time I have used one. From the first this company was brilliant and very helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Everyone was friendly and happy. They made moving day as stress free as possible. If you are looking for a company to use I can’t recommend them enough

Efficient, careful and cheerful same-day removal to several addresses

Van Man Removals, based in Tiverton, proved to be an excellent removal service for dealing with several different items to three different addresses in Bristol and London. They were efficient - 6 men came to pack up and put items in the van - and then two of them delivered to the addresses. There were no hitches at the other end and the guys who came were very accommodating and careful in what they did. They were also punctual and clean. We were drawn to the firm not least because they paid above the minimum wage to their crew and they cared about their welfare and training. Even so their price was the median of three quotations for the job, so the cost was fair but not excessive.

We used van man removals to move our belongings from Devon to Pembrokeshire and I couldn't recommend them enough! They were super friendly, very fast loading and unloading, and they helped create a calm atmosphere in a stressful situation. When we arrived at our new home our TV and sofa were already set up for us which was a lovely thing to walk in to! Matt and Luke who took our belongings to Pembrokeshire were lovely, friendly and kind, along with the other 2 guys that helped load everything initially.

My daughter was moving to a new house and we needed to transport some furniture we had in storage in Exeter to Cambridge. From the moment I got in touch with Mike his response was excellent. Although we needed the move done within a few days he managed to fit us in. On the day of the pick up, the guys arrived on time and were extremely professional. Likewise, the next day Matt & Dean did a great job taking the stuff to Cambridge, again arriving spot on time and making short work of unloading everything. I would certainly use them again and recommend them to other people.

Moving house can be stressful at the best of times, but when you're emptying your deceased parents place it's a whole new level. I can't thank Van Man removals enough for their service. From booking to loading, everything was so much easier than I was expecting. Mike and his team were constant professionals yet friendly in their approach. They were careful but efficient and respected the situation. I can't rate them highly enough.

Matt & Dean arrived on time. They looked really smart in their work clothes and both were very friendly and happy. I had just had new wood flooring and decorating so was probably overly worried about things being moved. I need not have been...they were very careful. They put up with my fussing with good humor, nothing was too much trouble for them. A huge thanks to Matt & Dean and thanks also to Mike for being so efficient in arranging everything.

After a very protracted sale and purchase Mike stepped in when our original movers could no longer honour the date. He arranged and booked the move really quickly so that there was no delay in our exchange. When the day came Mike and his team were friendly, careful, quick and efficient (they packed for us as well). They didn't leave until they were sure we were happy and didn't want anything relocating. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Genuinely impressive from start to finish. Quote and booking was fast and effective, pricing very competitive. Dealt well with a tricky pickup location - steep access - team just fronted up and got on with it. Colin, Dean and Matt were excellent throughout - totally competent and professional, good humoured and a pleasure to have around. Patient and courteous too. Offloading just as good - well-organised and efficient. Their whole approach and professionalism made a busy few days a lot less stressful - thanks all, great service J and D

I needed a piano and an awkward shaped sofa moved and was extremely pleased with the service I received from Van Man. Not only was organising a date and time handled very efficiently by Mike but Leon, Dean and Ryan showed up on time and were very professional in their work. They were dressed well in uniform and spoke very politely. They were pleasant throughout the move and very reassuring. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Leading up to our move was very stressful with our buyers putting pressure on us but on the day of our move Leon, Matt and Dean took all of that stress away and were so lovely with us and so quick with getting us out of our home and into our rental that we are having for six months while the sale of our new home goes through. They were very quick and professional and covered our mattresses in plastic etc and cared for our belongings. If I emailed any query at all leading up to the move then Mike answered everything quickly and put my mind at rest. We have even got them storing our settees until we can move them into our new home, as they would not fit into our temporary place. Hoping to use them again when we move into our future home. I have already recommended them to some friends who are moving soon.

Van man removls were superb! We had just moved in to a place and were needing to get things from all over the south of England shipped to London. Mike was really flexible, updating the quote when we added items in to be collected. The guys were excellent, took real care with the items, including a snooker table that weighed a ton and moved everything around until they were just where we wanted them. Couldn't be happier with the service and the value for money!
