“Brilliant from start to finish”

Georgia H.
2/9/22

Brilliant from start to finish. Made a potentially stressful house move stress free. Driver had a great attitude, easy going, friendly and did most of the heavy lifting. Turned up with blankets for protection/padding. Furniture was loaded thoughtfully and all arrived perfectly.

“Appalling experience”

Caroline C.
8/13/24

Terrible recent experience (August2024) with AnyVan. They made a mistake and communicated to the chosen removal company a different delivery date than the one agreed in our contract. I was not home on wrong date and remover charged me £240 for storage. I turned back to AnyVan to ask them to cover costs since THEY passed on the wrong date and the fee was based on correct date indicated in contract. Since then… silence from AnyVan. I told them I would spread the word about their service, but clearly their reputation is not even worth the £240 … somehow I agree. I would recommend going directly to a removal company and not using a broker like them.

Easy, stress-free, pleasant experience with AnyVan. Communication was excellent and process of pick-up and delivery could not have been smoother. Would recommend highly.

Hired a van to help move some furniture. Driver was very friendly and helpful. He really took good care of my belongings. Price was really reasonable too. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Anyvan!

Vehicle transport booked but on finding full vehicle details transport company said cost would be increased which made job unviable. We mutually agreed to cancel. Anyvan would not refund a penny, kept referring me to their T&C's so kept the £450 deposit, DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE, no reasoning with them when things don't work out.

AVOID!
My mum paid £2700, for what? NOTHING! Travelling 500 miles north, turns up in a much smaller van then paid for, a FULL list was sent so they knew EXACTLY what they were taking. Left half of the items behind, demanded another £700 out of her to then get these items ( they didn't even turn up for them)!

Don't speak a word of English! VERY RUDE! Oh and to top it off STILL waiting for our first load of stuff to arrive!

SEE YOU IN COURT SCAM ARTISTS!

Huge mistake going with this company. I was expecting the driver to deliver my items that same day (van was loaded by 11.30am) however, I found out on the day he was thinking about driving the next morning because he had 4 hours sleep in days.
What transpired was that overnight, they transferred all of my items to another van & a different driver delivered the next day. I did not know about this nor agree to it & strangely, it's a breach of their own T&C's which state you have to be present when they load / unload items etc because obviously the guys are more careful if you're there!

Items were put into a storage unit & I've since discovered that they have completely broken the electrical function of my electric reclining sofas & cracked the corner of a TV.

Any van have said that because it's beyond the 7 day window, they are not interested in investigating this even though I explained it went into a storage unit and came out 2 weeks later. The damage will cost me hundreds & not to mention the additional van I had to hire to take the rest of my stuff as they sent a smaller van to the job which could not fit everything.

I am now pursuing this matter via the legal route and advise anyone to stay away from this company. Book directly with the van driver so you know who you're getting & what type of service!

Tip for consumers:
Stay away from Any van - book direct with the van driver

Smashed my motorcycle to pieces causing 4000 quid of damage not even a refund offered. Also it seems if you have something moved by anyvan you are not insured

I would recommend avoiding using this company at all costs. Firstly an item was damaged in transit, and then there was an attempt to blame me. That evening I called the customer helpline only to be given a series of half-baked answers before calling back and waiting on hold for 21 minutes before hanging up. When the item was delivered the following day, repairs had been made to the damaged glass of the framed picture, but with a chunk missing from the picture frame. Coincidentally this was not mentioned to me by AnyVan, and only came to light when my client told me and had to fork out £70 to replace the frame. My subsequent efforts to get this matter resolved has simply been met by vague responses that somehow dispute the validity of my complaint, and delaying tactics. I have sent copies of invoices and offered to send emails from my client, yet from start to finish AnyVan have tried to swerve away from any concept of responsibility. It's been extremely embarrassing and unprofessional. The problems all stem from their cavalier approach to firstly looking after the item in transit, and then trying to wash their hands of making it right. I'm out of pocket due to their sloppiness and will recommend advising people to avoid using AnyVan at all costs.

Fast, efficient collection and delivery and very fair price. Friendly and careful movers. Could have communicated dates better - needed to be checked. But would certainly use them again.

Absolute shambles, messed up my job twice. I lost my customer. Anyvan are refusing to compensate. AVOID them - they only want your money, their customer care is the worst I have ever had.

The men arrived bang on time and worked very hard but carefully with a heavy washer dryer. The pick-up and delivery was very well done. To be recommended.
