We hired this company at the last minute, having rung many removal companies. They were, by far, the most friendly and professional and fairly priced. When we met Mark and Danny we found them so efficient and supportive of the difficult situation the family was in and the whole way through they made sure everything was secure and respected all belongings. They also continued reassuring the family throughout the move. I can highly recommend this company and will be recommending to anyone I know who are looking for a trustworthy company.

They were great from start to finish. Mark, who came to give a quote was really friendly and extremely helpful. Their quote was lower than most other firms I tried. On moving day the guys were highly efficient and very quick. They made my move utterly painless! I recommend them without reservation.

Trustworthy making moving simple without hidden charges. Great guys if u need moving done big or small. Will definitely use them again without a doubt.

Really good service, the guys fully understand what they're doing. Happy to take a passenger in the van (only room for one) and good company on the drive. Try and give as much detail as possible when asking for a quote as this makes it easier for them to guess the price - access issues at both addresses, for example (stairs, lift, etc) Highly recommended

Mark and Danny did an outstanding job of making the move go smoothly. They were exceptionally efficient at moving our cumbersome furniture. I am very glad we choose them as our moving company. Having moved numerous times because of my job, they have been best moving company and I definitely would recommend them.

The most friendly, competent and hard - working team I have ever met. I have moved many times and I have never experienced such attention to detail and care in a removal team. I am very incapacitated at the moment and both Mark and Danny went out of their way to make me comfortable and at ease while they did all the hard work. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Great job by Mark and team. From the initial conversation to the final box being moved, we received a highly professional, conscientious, and friendly service. Couldn't recommend them highly enough. (Although it did take me a few weeks, sorry a lot going on!!) Thanks again, will be in touch if we need anymore help.

These guys just helped us move from Southampton to Bournemouth; really friendly guys and really professional. Super quick at getting everything out and back in, they took the time to make sure all our furniture was stored safely and protected during the journey. Nothing seemed too much trouble, and we will definitely be calling them again in the future! Thanks guys!

These lovely chaps helped my friend move house, (I was there to help along with other friends and relatives) and they were fantastic. Efficient, hard working, kind, cheeky and a good sense of humour. Would thoroughly recommend them to anyone wishing to move anything.

Mark and Danny were brilliant and made our house move much less stressful than it could have been.They kept our spirits up with their banter and worked quickly and efficiently. Always very careful with our furniture and put things back together for us. I thoroughly recommend these guys for polite friendly service at a very competitive price. I sincerely hope I don't have to move again, but if I do I shall call Mark and Danny!

Thank you so much for such a smooth moving process for my aged mum-in-law last week. Extremely professional, hard working and helpful service from both of you. She hasn't stopped singing your praises :-) Definitely 5 stars and we will recommend you to our friends and family. Thanks again -Tracey

Great help with our house move and the manner in which they conducted themselves was very commendable. We were very happy with the service provided!! They were courteous and eager to get the job done in a very professional manner. We were also very grateful for the extra level of care Mark and Dan shown throughout the moving process. They were so hard working and very respectful to family members and to our new property. Really happy!! Will definitely recommend.

Amazing removals service. I was very impressed with the overall service by Mark and his team. They were extremely helpful with all our requirements. The moving team arrived earlier than scheduled and finished quicker than expected. I would definitely recommend this company to others who are looking for a careful and reliable service at a very reasonable price. Thanks guys!

Top notch service from Mark and Dan today! Friendly chaps who managed to make a potentially stressful moving day easy and relaxing. They tackled any and every obstacle, including dismantling and rebuilding a double wardrobe and our ottoman bed for us. They took very good care of our furniture the entire time, and everything was done very efficiently and quickly (so no worries about them trying to rip you off by moving at a snails pace)! They were cheerful and full of banter the entire time, and we’d recommend Mark and Dan to anyone looking for a speedy and reliable moving team.

Brilliant service! Turned up on time; polite; professional; friendly; very supportive and helped us sort out some unexpected last minute glitches and didn't flinch when we had to change some of our plans and add in an extra drop off and a run to the dump. Made the whole experience enjoyable. Will definitely use them again. Highly recommend Man and Van Move Bournemouth. Thanks so much guys.

Mark and his team arrived on time and loaded the van in double quick time and were polite and helpful to my husband who was dealing with the move at the Bournemouth end. They then drove to Cheltenham where I met them at the new house and they again worked professionally and quickly to have the van unloaded by the time as agreed resulting in a stress free move. We would recommend this company for value, politeness and work effort from first survey through to final payment. Great price and great service! Cheers guys.

Mark & Danny were brilliant from start to finish. Even managed to get my huge fridge out of the house! Totally professional with brilliant banter that really made a stressful day far less stressful. I will certainly be using them again and would not hesitate to recommend them to everyone I know. Thanks again!

Mark and his team were professional, courteous, friendly and very efficient. They helped take the worry out of moving and needing to store our furniture at short notice. Every phone call was returned promptly and nothing was too much trouble. There prices are also very competitive and I can say hand on heart that it was a pleasure to do business with them. Excellent service and we would absolutely recommend them with no hesitation. Thank you

Hi we recently used Mark and Dan to help move from sheltered accommodation, back into a family home. Throughout the move, Mart and Dan turned up on time, were careful and respectful when moving our possessions and furniture (nothing got damaged) and happy and cheerful, providing reassurance and confidence throughout the move. All went extremely smoothly and they kindly set up the TV and put the bed together for us too. Would recommend the excellent customer service they provide, every time, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Mark and Dan from Clare

Mark and Danny made my flat move very easy and very personalized. We had a few calls /emails prior to make sure everything was organised and they arrived a few minutes early on the moving day to make sure they had their van and pathway prepared. They made sure I was happy with everything before every step of the way, and couldn't have taken any more care in the transportation of my extremely heavy piano! I would definitely call them for my next move, highly recommended to anyone.

Have used this company several times. Always friendly, efficient, prompt, careful and helpful. Mark keeps you fully informed and always replies quickly - in a removal situation, knowing you can really rely on a company is worth so much. I thoroughly recommend them, just excellent.

Wow! - a moving service with actual....SERVICE! Thank you guys, I don’t usually write reviews but you certainly earned it on my move. Nice hard working guys, they were very friendly and knowledgeable. Their van was very clean and tidy and they made sure that all our furniture and fragile bits were protected and secured safely. No request seemed too much trouble and they were happy to put all our stuff in the correct rooms at the new location and they moved things about until we we were entirely satisfied😁 Thank you for making the day go so smoothly. I’d be happy to recommend you to anyone that needs help moving. Great prices with no extras. Well done again.

Mark and his team was fantastic, we was very impressed with these guys. I chose this company because they were the cheapest by far out of 4 firms I contacted. From the minute they turned up at 7.45 am these lovely, polite men worked tirelessly and barely without breaks until 3.30 pm. They were incredible and went above and beyond our expectations - dismantling and reconstructing our furniture with care and attention - all the while working at such fast pace, displaying great strength and endurance continuously. We will be using this firm again in 12 months time, without a doubt. Highly recommended. Thank you guys for everything!

Great company for moving and good communication throughout the booking process. The guys kept me fully informed on the day but unfortunately there booking in the morning went on longer than first scheduled which delayed our move by some time. They worked very hard to get us moved quickly and were very good at what they do. It was all done with a smile despite being a long day for them. Would highly recommend their moving services and their very competitive prices.

My flatmate and I needed movers for what (we thought) was going to be a fairly easy, straightforward move. I found Man and Van Move online and enquired about rates and dates. Mark got back to me right away and right up to the day of moving, there was great communication and quick responses to my emails. The move turned out not to be as easy and straightforward as originally thought (there was a surprising amount of stuff), and Mark was upfront about the time it was going to take, which was longer than anticipated. Throughout, Mark and Jamie were cheerful, friendly, never complained and worked steadily to get everything loaded and unloaded. If you're looking for friendly, reliable and reasonably priced guys to help you move, look no further. Thanks again, Mark and Jamie, for all your hard work today! Hugely appreciated.

As a professional hotelier of luxury resorts, I recognise good service when I'm on the receiving end of it, so to that end, I have no hesitation in submitting this honest review. Amazing service, professional, prompt, great communication before the move, during it and after. A few struggles with my ultra large furniture, which was handled with patience and confidence and the years of experience these gentlemen had. I would recommend them to anyone requiring 5 star service, at an affordable rate with no hidden costs. The packaging, loading, handling with empathy, transfer and transportation with the delivery and no damage, impeccable service. Thanks Mark & Danny.

Mark and Jamie have my vote for the best removal men EVER!! Top marks for Efficiency and Affordability. Even though they arrived early, they started at the agreed time, which worked well for me. I was impressed with how carefully they handled each and every item, loading up and unpacking at the destination. They were charming and pleasant throughout, giving the impressing that nothing was too much trouble. I particularly liked the extra touches, like waiting after unloading to make sure we were happy with where the furniture was as they were happy to move things around if required. And the speed with which they worked!! I was amazed it only took them 2 hours. I am more than happy to recommend Mark and Jamie to anyone who needs to hire a removal team. If I could, I'd give them 10 stars! Thank you so much, Mark and Jamie, you eased the stress of the move for him. Like me, he appreciates it very much. Joy

Super friendly and reliable. They arrived at the house early and were ready to go promptly which was nice. Great communicators and excellent price - would highly recommend

Mark and Jamie were very professional, kept us updated throughout the day and arrived on time. Took care of the items as if they were their own and made the move stress free! As soon as they arrived they got to work and didn't waste any time! They are a fantastic, polite and a hardworking team and would recommend them to anyone. A move which I thought would take us 3-4 hours they completed in under 2 hours. Will definitely use them for our next move.

Mark and Jamie were brilliant. For a moving company they were top notch. Moved our 3 bedroom house within about 4 hours. Their moving van was clean and they were both presentable and friendly. They had all the moving equipment and made sure all of our belongings were safe. In both houses, they respected the items and the properties so that there was not damage or anything. For a moving company they did not take the mick when it came to breaks or efficiency . We helped them ourselves too and they didn't mind this even though they said we wouldn't need to if we didn't want to. Moving can be daunting and they made us feel reassured that everything would be fine. If I had to recommend them to anyone, I would definitely do so. We had fun moving with them and you could tell that with the experience that they have they knew that this was what was needed to make the day positive and as successful as possible. Cheers Dan and Donna

Absolutely fantastic service! Moving is quite stressful, but Mark and his team made it a seamless and stress free day, we were kept well informed at every stage of the process and their positive attitude and great sense of humour made it a fun day. It's amazing what they can fit in the van too! I would recommend them to everyone. Thabks again!
