Report
We needed a bespoke family wardrobe moving within Cheltenham. It had a lot of sentimental value to us. We'd tried moving it ourselves but it was too bulky and heavy. I rang 3 local removal companies, two said the job was too small and to find a man with a van. Aardvark's answering machine said he was on holiday until September (lucky man) so I didn't leave a voicemail! As I was googling further, Jon from Aardvark rang me back, was here, and decided he would help!
He promptly came around with two colleagues and they sorted it then and there! It was also the hottest day of the year 31/7/2024! We really can't praise and thank them enough! Thoroughly recommended!

Last Friday, we had a team of three very hardworking, professional and courteous gentlemen from Aardvark who moved our furniture, our first move in 35 years. We would wholeheartedly recommend them as they were excellent workers, careful, punctual and gave a very good service at a fair and reasonable price. We thank them very much for all their help,

What a great recommendation Aardvark Removals were. Paul, Ian and Trevor worked relentlessly. They were professional, courteous and super duper chaps. Will certainly use this company again for our next move in a few months time. Excellent value. Thank you Jon for organising.
