The 3 men that moved me to Lawford, Manningtree were absolutely wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble. They made my moving day so easy and relaxed. They were so cheerful, obliging, careful with all my goods and so helpful putting things in right place and putting things together, very, very polite, really made my day. What could have been a very stressful day turned out to be a happy easy day. Please let them know how happy I am and Thank you so much to the three of you. One very satisfied customer.

I have used Johns Removals (& Smooth Moves) three times in the last two and half years. Twice for a big home move, but also to move some heavy furniture which was tricky to place where I needed it. In doing all of this I cannot recommend Dannys team enough. They are so very lovely and extremely helpful. In addition, I have used a storage unit for that period of time as well. I researched around and found the rates for the space to be very competitive- giving far more space for money in comparison.
The unit was clean and remained completely dry and damp free. My belongings, amongst which were soft furnishings were absolutely as perfect as when they went in when I removed them recently after two and half years! I would not only recommend them, I would not think twice about using them again in the future!

I moved locally a week ago and the team were brilliant! John, Tony, Marcus and Billy were polite and so helpful, nothing was too much trouble. They were on time in the morning and worked quickly, when we arrived at the new property they made sure things were in the right place and that I was happy. The company were recommended to me and I would recommend them now, from quote, dealing with office and moving day I felt less stressed using them and on the day had every confidence in the team of guys I had. Thank you!
