This company moved us 3 weeks ago. Great service, the team were very professional and considerate. We had been unable to confirm a date due to late exchange but Chris was great at accommodating us. A long day as we were movjng 90 miles away and had a lot of heavy items, but the guys just got stuck in and kept going. A big thank you.

Chris and his team helped me move out my house that I sold and into their storage facilities and from storage into my new home 7 months later. All of team were super friendly, Chris even broke down my beds and took down my TV from the wall which was really helpful as I wouldn't have been able to do it on my own! They took great care to not damage any furniture or carpets and supplied all the boxes and tape I needed. I will be recommending Direct Moves to friends and family now, for both the storage facility and for moving.

We moved on 3rd June and we have had a brilliant experience with Chris and his team who were Bill, Adam and Dave. They were all so friendly and very helpful. Unfortunately, we had a delay with our completion and Chris drafted in another 3 members of his team to help speed up getting us into our new home. All of this was done at a very fair price and again we cannot thank you enough. Mark & Paula

Can highly recommend this company! Very professional. The guys that came to remove my sofas, to put in storage were incredibly polite and hard working. Easy company to deal with. They were so accommodating to a last minute change request from me. Would not hesitate to use them again.

Chris and his team moved us from Bishops Stortford to a neighbouring town seamlessly. We booked the packing and moving service and will never go back to moving ourselves after the experience.
The team were really professional and tailored the move to our specific needs too!
We'd highly recommend Direct Moves to anyone and will definitely work with them again if we decide to move.

So patient and understanding. Saved my bacon when completion was scheduled one working day after exchange. Moved me over 2 days to Lincolnshire Unflappable, friendly and a great price. Thanks to everyone in the team, you were awesome.

Chris and his team helped me move at the beginning of August 2022. The whole process was very smooth from initial visit through to post move collection of used boxes. Before the move Chris delivered moving boxes and if I required more they arrived promptly. Chris was also able to answer all of my (stupid) questions as I'd not moved in over 20 years. On the day of the move the team turned up early and ready to go. They worked (with a smile) at great speed and efficiently in high temperatures and as the completion went well the whole process of packing and unpacking was completed by 4pm. I'd certainly recommend Direct Moves. It was a great experience for us.

I have found Emma from Direct Moves to be very professional, understanding, diplomatic and responsive. The whole process of purchasing our property through this unusual times, has been fraught with challenges, however, Emma has endeavoured to navigate the purchase through to the benefit of all parties. well done and thankyou.
