Last March, I enlisted the help of David Gilkes to remove my items from my student accommodation and store them over the summer break as I had to leave the country in a hurry due to Covid-19. In short, a good portion of my belongings went missing (worth at least £600, which is a significant amount for a student) and no liability was taken. Throughout the process of reporting the loss and filing a claim, I have been largely ignored, only getting a semi-satisfactory response when I sent them a strongly worded email. It has been almost 4 months and I have yet to receive any form of compensation.

We chose David Gilkes again for our house move - as it was undertaken so professionally three years ago, we had no hesitation in booking them again.
It’s a stressful day not knowing when keys are going to be available and vital info not coming through but the David Gilkes removal team took the stress out of the actual moving element. The team turned up promptly, as planned and got stuck in straight away. Rooms were becoming empty so quickly and two beds were dismantled (and reassembled in the new house upon arrival) and the whole process was so straight forward - which enabled our time to chase

We had a great move using David Gilles.
The whole team right from Kate and Suzy in the office through to the hardworking, helpful team on moving day did everything to accommodate us and make for a very smooth process. Everyone at the company was very friendly and professional.
On moving day all soft furnishings and TVs were wrapped and protected. Carpets were covered in plastic, wardrobe boxes loned to us.
I had not even heard of this great company until we used them but wanted to make sure others knew that we only experienced good things from them at a competitive price.
Thank you to all at
