HOME REMOVALS IN THAMES DITTON
Gentleman & A Van is the leading provider of quality removals in Thames Ditton. We’ve been helping people move throughout London and beyond for more than 15 years, devoting ourselves to making moving a less stressful undertaking.
Back when we started, we took a long, hard look at the removals market and saw the glaring need for better customer service. We made it our mission to ensure that removals in Thames Ditton were no longer an exhausting upheaval that left people feeling run down. We wanted them to be a refreshing, invigorating process that caused minimal disruption.
We make moving easier by listening to our clients. We take note of how their lives work and what their schedules entail and then plan the move accordingly.
WHAT SERVICES DO GENTLEMAN & A VAN OFFER?
We can start by taking as many tasks off your hands as possible, including doing a full pack/unpack and furniture placement job. When you use us for your house or office removal in Thames Ditton, you can begin life in your new home from the moment you move in.
Furthermore, if you decide to do your own packing, we offer the best materials for the job – such as robust cardboard boxes that can withstand the rigours of the journey from your old house to new.
We also have a storage facility, so we can provide a unit if you’ve got more belongings than you have room for in your new place.
Preparing for a Thames Ditton move
Check driveway access and include any outdoor furniture or shed contents in your moving list. Send measurements or photographs of awkward pieces and entrances so the team can plan their handling alongside the rest of the load.

I booked our removal with Gentleman & A Van and could not be happier with the whole experience.
Amy from the office was fantastic from the very beginning. She organised everything extremely well, was very accommodating and knowledgeable, and was always happy to answer any questions.
We had our removal last Saturday and the team was absolutely amazing!!! They were extremely professional, efficient, fast and friendly, and made what could have been a very stressful day feel completely stress-free. Everything was handled impeccably from start to finish, and the dismantling and reassembly of our furniture was done to the highest standard.
A huge thank you to each and every one of them— Edi, Nicusor, Ebiye, Johnson, Chhiring and Zakiya. You were all brilliant!
I would highly recommend Gentleman & A Van and would not hesitate to use them again.

I couldn’t recommend this removal company highly enough! From start to finish, the communication was excellent – everything was really clear, and Amy in particular was very responsive and reassuring, which made the whole moving process feel so much less stressful.
The team on the day were absolutely brilliant. We happened to move on a 34-degree day, but despite the heat they were incredibly efficient, getting everything packed up and moved amazingly quickly while still taking care of all our belongings. Everything arrived safely and nothing was damaged or broken.
We unfortunately discovered that our sofa wouldn’t fit into the new house, but they arranged to store it for us at a really reasonable price and then delivered it to a storage unit a week later at a time that suited us – no fuss at all.
Moving house is stressful at the best of times (let alone in 34-degree heat and at 8 months pregnant!), but the whole team made the experience so much easier. Friendly, professional, efficient and genuinely helpful throughout. We’d absolutely use them again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!
Response from the owner:Dear Lucinda,
Thank you so much for such a fantastic and detailed review. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with Gentleman & A Van.
We are delighted to hear that Amy was so responsive and reassuring throughout the planning of your move. Clear communication is really important to us, so it is wonderful to know that she helped make everything feel more straightforward and less stressful.
We will also be sure to pass your kind words on to the team who carried out the move. Working in 34-degree heat was certainly a challenge, but it is fantastic to hear that they remained efficient and took such great care of your belongings.
We are also pleased we could find a simple solution when the sofa wouldn't fit and arrange storage and the later delivery at a time that suited you. We always want to make things as easy as possible when unexpected issues arise.
Moving house is stressful enough without doing it in that heat, so we are especially pleased that the team helped make the experience easier for you. Thank you again for your recommendation and for choosing Gentleman & A Van. We wish you all the very best for the exciting new chapter ahead!

I was really impressed with the service. Having recently bought my first flat and started to furnish it, I have dealt with various delivery services recently and Alex and the Gentleman & A Van team were by far the best I have encountered - helpful, prompt, good communication, top quality of service and care for my delivery of a breakable item of furniture. I would certainly use their services again and recommend them to anyone.
Response from the owner:Dear Eleanor,
Thank you for your fantastic review, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with Gentleman & A Van.
We are delighted to hear that Alex and the team stood out amongst the delivery services you have used recently. It is great to know that their communication, punctuality and helpful approach, along with the care they took with your breakable furniture, made such a positive impression.

Thank you again for your recommendation and kind words. They mean a great deal to the whole Gentleman & A Van team.

Terance and the team, whichever one we use as we use these guys a lot, always go above and beyond. If the job gets a bit tight time wise and because they have such a large crew they call a team that maybe finished quicker elsewhere than anticipated and they all help out to get the job done. Always professional and no complaints.
Response from the owner:Dear Adam,
Thank you for your fantastic review and for continuing to choose Gentleman & A Van. We really appreciate your loyalty and support.
It is great to hear that you have consistently found Terance and the wider team willing to go above and beyond. Our ability to bring in additional crew when a job is taking longer than expected is all about making sure we deliver for our customers, so it is particularly rewarding to know that this has made a difference to you.
Thank you also for your kind words about the team's professionalism. We really value the trust you place in us for your business and personal moves, as well as your storage requirements.
We look forward to continuing to help you whenever you need us.

Can I give 10 stars? This company is amazing. They really really are very good at what they do. Every single person was excellent at what they do and they made out move as painless as possible and helped us out at quite short notice due to being let down by another supplier. Book in advance (unlike us). I can't recommend them highly enough. Amy and Sam are super heroes. Dont even contemplate any other company.

Could not recommend these guys more. Amy in the office was incredible; so efficient, knowledgeable and just lovely. Our original movers cancelled on us two days before our move, we thought we’d been clever and found cheap ones but they had so much small print it was going to work out double the quote. When questioned, they cancelled. We called these guys and Amy immediately came to the rescue (miraculous they had availability!!) within half an hour she’d organised our entire move, sent packers over to help and turned the most nightmare situation into a total triumph. Sam, Nic, Tom, Garry, Max, Taylor and the rest of the team were The Dream. So calm, capable, organised and knew exactly what they were doing. The safest possible hands and the nicest possible guys. They have totally transparent pricing which worked out basically the same as our dodgy ‘cheap’ ones and it was so fair for the level of professionalism and effort. I will never use anyone else again and am eternally grateful. THANK YOU for the best start to our new chapter 💙
Response from the owner:Dear Laura,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such an incredible review. We truly appreciate your kind words and are delighted that we were able to help when you found yourself in such a difficult situation.
We're especially pleased to hear that Amy was able to step in so quickly and turn what must have been a very stressful experience into a smooth and successful move. We will also be sure to pass your wonderful feedback on to Sam, Nic, Tom, Garry, Max, Taylor and the rest of the team. They will be thrilled to know they made such a positive difference.
It means a great deal to hear that you valued our transparent pricing and professionalism, and that we were able to restore your confidence after your previous experience.
Thank you again for your recommendation and for placing your trust in Gentleman & A Van. We wish you every happiness in your new home and hope to be of assistance again in the future.
