Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review, Best, Mike and the Van Man Removals team
A superb experience!
I first contacted Mike when we 'thought' we were moving. We unfortunately through no fault of our own had a protracted time before we exchanged contracts and had a defined moving date. At all times Mike was incredibly patient and accommodating and did his best to pin down a constantly moving date. Once the move was on we had a prompt delivery of boxes and we got packing. A 2 day removal went like clockwork. The lads were polite, incredibly helpful and really enjoyable to have around during what was a major event for us. The amount they moved was stunning, so quick and all with a smile on their faces. I cannot recommend these people enough, they were just so good.

Very pleased with the service on this job. Communication arranging the job was efficient and prompt. On the day the team were competent, polite turned up on time, well equipped and reasonably priced for moving our piano. I had asked several firms and had figures quoted which seemed ridiculously low and many seemed to be hopelessly prepared for size of job.

Turned up on time, knew what they were doing and moved a heavy upright piano with no fuss. These people were experts and had the right equipment. Very reasonable price and based on my experience would recommend them highly.

Selected Van Man Removals for a major move from Devon to Suffolk due to their price being competitive. Right from the start when making an appointment to give a quotation, the emptying of our previous home to the delivery and unloading of our household effects into our new home, the whole operation went smoothly. In particular all the operatives were extremely polite and friendly and worked with care and respect for our belongings. Their professional and efficient working made what is a fairly stressful time in moving house that much easier.

Van Man Exeter are simply an outstanding company. From our initial enquiry to our Moving Day, Mike and his team - Colin, Matt, Leon and Luke made the whole experience as stress-free as possible. All communication with Mike was prompt, detailed and helpful, and schedules were kept to the minute. The Removals team were absolute gentlemen - nothing was too much trouble and they all had a lovely sense of humour that kept us going. They were professional, efficient and respectful of all our belongings; we couldn't have wished for a nicer team. Our heartfelt thanks goes out to them and our apologies for not getting this review completed sooner!

Recently used Van Man Removals for a large move in Exeter. We had the team help pack up our house and then come back a few days later to do the actual move. One of the hotter days this summer for the move and the team did a great job of keeping the pace moving forward. We have moved a number of times over the last 6 years and this was the most pleasant and professional experience we have had with a variety of moving companies. Polite, professional, and careful in everything that they did. Highly recommend Van Man Removals.

I was very impressed with Van Man removals from my first contact with them and their helpful quotation visit through to the actual removal job :) A massive thanks to Luke and Matt for the fantastic job they did moving my stuff from Exeter to Whitley Bay in Tyneside. They cleared the Exeter house quickly & carefully with good humour considering the awful weather that morning. They were also quick to get hold of wardrobe boxes when they realized these weren't on the vans. They also dropped a bed off in Taunton on the way which was included in the original quotation. This was a big help & one less thing for me to sort out. The next morning they arrived on time & again despite the weather were in good spirits & did a great job unloading everything. I would have no hesitation in recommending Van Man Removals.
