Helpful van.

The name 'Helpful van' really describes the service this company provides. Zibi, who provided the service himself, owns a fairly large van with a lift, which made the loading and unloading much easier. In addition to driving and loading and unloading the van, he helped myself and my daughter carry boxes, bags and furniture to and from the van in a cheerful disposition, making reassuring comments along the way such as "no, you haven't got too much stuff, this is only average.." We teamed up well and Zibi's expertise became apparent as we worked together, which allowed us to complete the (local) move in two hours. Zibi was very professional when handling our sofa, the largest piece of furniture we had. He used a special cover to move it without damaging it, and he was mindful not to step on the new carpet at the other end with his work shoes on so as not to stain it. He knew what he was doing and that took much of the stress away from the move. I would certainly recommend Helpful van's excellent services to anyone. Thank you, Zibi!

Polite and Friendly Movers.

This was the second time we used Helpful Van removals and we have again been very happy with them. Zbi the main guy was very formal and polite with me and my sister helping us move house, and had extra packing sheets and ties with him in his van to help protect the items if I hadn't done a good enough job of wrapping them. His prices are fair and reasonable and he worked in the evening for us with no extra fee. I would use him any time.

Service cost: £80

Long-distance move from London, Greater London to London, Greater London

Superb job.

I was the first time that we had decided to order a comprehensive moving service. We moved from the rented two-bedroom apartment to our dreamed-of new one-bedroom apartment. My friend recommended me to use helpful van. The company started works at 7 am with packing our belongings and demounting furniture. In the afternoon all our belongings were already packed in a van. The new apartment was just one mile away but it was not possible to park the vehicle in front of the entry to the block of flats. The guys were carrying our belongings for a hundred yards. Shortly after 8 pm our belongings were already in the apartment.

Service cost: £480

Good choice.

In the past I had a bad experience with a removal company,
so this time we decide to find out more about Removal reviews
Upon sending several inquires for price offers we received a lot of very different offers. Helpful van offered a reasonable price and its opinions were just great. Moreover the registered seat of the company was just a mile from our apartment.
This offer turned out to be a very good choice. Zibi and his colleague    from Helpful van arrived a few minutes before the agreed time. They worked very quickly and efficiently without any problems. Well done job! We will be using the services of the company in the future.

Service cost: £190

Amazing Service.

It's one of the best removal company I have dealt with so far.
The Helpfull Van provided me with a truly excellent, first rate service at every stage, from my first telephone call to finally moving in to my new home. They took perfect care of everything they moved. Very polite, on time..help me with my house moving one more time.
Again Zbyszek helped me a lot and he was always checking staff if they're properly secured in his Van.
I will highly recommend Helpfull Van company to all my friends and to peoples who wants excellent service for a good price.

International move from London, Greater London to Paris, Ile-de-France

Helpfulvan.com.

Z.B., the proprietor of Helpful Van & Services was able to complete my move from London to Paris with barely a day's notice. Under unusually stressful circumstances, due to unforeseen events which had no bearing upon the removal company. Z.B. remained calm, collected, and above all else, extremely helpful throughout.

The move was completed quickly, efficiently, yet with the utmost care too and Z.B. even went as far as helping assemble items at the point of delivery, which I, otherwise, would not have been able to do myself. Help which was not included in our original agreement and for which I was most grateful.

I would gladly recommend this company to friends and strangers alike, as moving personal items or even our homes, is a stressful and worrying prospect for all of us and yet Z.B.'s reserved and considerate manner and his general "can do" attitude made my move to Paris an enjoyable experience.

Helpful Van & Removal's prices are very competitive and easily worth every penny. If you want peace of mind, I doubt you could find better.

Service cost: £900

Patient, helpful, strong!

Zibi was recommended by our landlord and helped me empty our office and move it all to kent.

He was prompt, friendly and relaxed. He did the lion's share of the lifting and was a thoroughly nice guy, He was careful with the stuff, came with rugs and packing tape etc - and managed to fill the van to the roof.

The price was very reasonable too

I would definately use his services again and would not hesitate to recommend him.

Service cost: £320
