We recently used Herbert Davis for our house move, I was a bit worried about certain items we had to move like our children's sandpit, a huge chest freezer and an awkward garden storage container, but nothing was too much trouble for the two amazing guys that were moving us. They were really friendly and just got on with the job putting my mind at rest. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

I would rate them higher if I could! The service we received was incredible. They packed the whole house with such efficiency. even with our chaotic 3 year old 'helping'! They arrived promptly and worked tirelessly for 2 days. the hottest ones of the year so far! Thank you so much Paul, Peter, Ian and Andy for your hard work and advice. and for being so wonderful with Frazer. You made what could have been a traumatic move so much easier! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I moved with this company in Nov from West Sussex to Forest of Dean. I rang on a Wed afternoon at 4.30 pm looking to move on the following day as we had been let down at the last minute. Give me ten minutes the man said and ten minutes later he returned my call. Monies paid and Thurs morning they arrived in Bosham. I can't thank you enough for rescuing us from a nightmare situation. The men who moved us were fantastic, very efficient, polite, and friendly. No biscuits left mind. Seriou sly cannot thank you enough for such a smooth move. Would highly recommend this company. Kay & Garry Grant.
