Paul could not have been more helpful
Paul could not have been more helpful. He was a good communicator when arranging the appointment, setting my expectations accurately. On the day of the removals he was pleasant & professional. I had underestimated the amount of items to be disposed, which meant the final bill was higher than the quote - but this was my fault and I have no quibble over it.
Excellent removal survises
We used Paul to move 4 attics worth of archive storage and racking for our business to offsite storage. Paul couldn't be more helpful, he moved 1000's of boxes for us. Nothing was a problem for him and he does everything in a cheerful manner. Would certainly recommend using him either commercially or for personal use

Paul moved a van load from Suffolk to London and it was all completely pain free. He was helpful, responsive and I quickly felt I could trust him. I would have no hesitation in recommending Van About Town!
Amazing service from start to finish

I highly recommend VanaboutTown.
All very efficient, from the initial enquiry to the clearing of the apartment.
Paul & his colleague were very quick too! The moving was done in a flash which enabled us to get on with the rest of our day. Brilliant!
Great Service from The Van About Town
Thoroughly recommend Paul and Adam. They know exactly what to do and remove your furniture with no fuss and do it all very carefully. Nice sense of humour too! If you need something moved or removed then The Van About Town will do a great job for you at a fair price.
As good as expected
I have used this company before so knew I could trust them to provide an excellent service. They completed the job quickly and I highly recommend them.
Good honest service
Second time I've used this company and the reason I returned was I received a very good service the first time. On contact we discussed my requirements, I was given a price which I agreed and a convenient date for completion. The work was carried out very efficiently in a friendly manner at a price which was very reasonable.

Excellent service!
Excellent service from Paul and Adam from start to finish. They moved us out of our flat in Hertfordshire, back to Ipswich carefully and professionally. We would use them again without hesitation and recommend them to anyone.
An excellent service
Timing was perfect, careful and skillful handling of furniture, friendly helpful staff and good value for the job we wanted.
We will definitely use you again.
Thank you.
Another great experience
This is the second time I have used Paul and once again he was helpful, efficient and fairly priced. He moved our charity offices across town and everything was moved cleanly and without any fuss or damage. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

The best moving company in Ipswich. From the care applied to the items as they were moved, to the punctuation and professionalism presented by Paul and his son, I am extremely grateful to have been referred to them and use their services. I would call for The Van About Town's services 11 times out of 10. Extremely happy with them.
