Excellent service. The movers handled the boxes, electronics etc. with care during both loading and unloading. They were professional, quick, efficient from start to finish. They charged extra for time-overrun which was fair, we dint feel overcharged. Overall, very positive experience. Will highly recommend these movers for a stress-free moving experience.
Good company and even helped us move when traffic delayed him
Excellent service, on time and very helpful with loading and unloading the van!
Adedayo arrived on time and was very helpful throughout the process, including being graceful when exposed to a tense move out environment and need to change the arrangement: I required more time and he was able to accommodate for the pre-known fee.Would absolutely recommend and use Adedayo in the future. Thank you!
Frank was so helpful and professional. He was fast and very careful with my belongings. He managed my heavy furniture and boxes with ease. Would highly reccommend! Everything was great!
Professional, and had a nice attitude.
The driver was great, really helpful and kind. We would love to book him again. As for the platform, Compare Man and Van told him to come 2 hours earlier than what we booked. We ended up needing to rush and forgot to pack some things which was a bummer.
Dean and his team were brilliant - on time, friendly, helpful and very efficient. They helped us to put some larger items of furniture back together and were super professional throughout our move. Thank you!
The driver we had was good, and the pricing was definitely reasonably. However, when we booked, we chose from a list of names and quotes. The driver we selected from this was not the driver who completed our job, and this changed as soon as we had confirmed. Not sure why this was, but that could have been a problem.

Drivers on our platform know Richmond’s mix of residential streets, controlled parking areas, and routes shaped by river crossings. That local knowledge can make move-day planning feel more straightforward where stopping space, property access, or travel conditions vary.
What to plan for when moving in Catford
Richmond combines historic residential streets, riverside neighbourhoods and a mix of flats and larger family homes. Parking controls, bridge crossings and property layout can all affect how easily a local job runs once the van arrives.
Property types vary
A mix of apartment buildings, period terraces and larger extended homes means entrances, staircases and internal layouts can all change how items are carried in and out.
Controlled parking varies
Many neighbourhoods operate controlled parking zones with different restrictions, so checking nearby stopping space in advance can make loading more straightforward.
River crossings shape routes
The Thames divides the borough, so journeys between some neighbourhoods depend on a smaller number of bridge crossings, which can affect travel time.
