Martine
Not a word of complaint.. at moving my stuff.. some very heavy items! Was incredibly calm, careful and organised! The way Chica treated his young helper was exemplary! Price was very reasonable for the 3 hours of very hard work! I was really stressed out.. but Chica was such a calming influence. Intelligent and gracious worker. Chica will from now on be my ‘go to’ for further moving work! More...

Jackie
Moving into new house help moving a bed and sofa. Supper helpful in organising things he was running later than agreed but contacted me well in advanced to warn me. Carried most of the things by himself no complaints about anything he just had ways to find solutions to the small issues of doors and corridors. I would recommend him and his services. His prices are also very reasonable. More...

Grant
He phoned an hour before offering to come earlier if needed, but he was happy to still come at the original time, great to have the option.
Me and my partner rode in the van, and he was very friendly and easy to chat too which makes a 40 minute drive go quick.
He helped unload the items into the storage facility and made the process much easier.
Would definitely recommend the service to make your move stress free.

Christine McDermott
We can highly with 5 stars recommend Chika from "Monks Moves" for his professional and caring approach to his work: -
M- Man with a Van But with a Refreshing Difference ......
O - Organised and efficient
N - No trouble spared at all in his customised / tailor-made service
K - Kept us updated throughout
S - Speedy
M - Modestly priced - rare these days
O - The Other end even commented "The van driver was lovely and handled it with so much care."
V - Very gentle and helpful - went Above and Beyond the call of duty, helping to problem solve and ensure we were left satisfied which is also rare these days
E- Excellent job so well done
S - Superb service - very highly to be recommended
You will not be disappointed.
5 stars and we shall be recommending him to all our personal and professional contacts too.
We used his company to transport some Gumtree garden furniture - with the excellent price he charged it made the arrangement a done deal! I will always contact him for the transporting of my Freecycle and Gumtree treasures.
We wish him every success, much wisdom and continued graciousness with his excellent Man with a Van enterprise.
May he be a leading light and an example to his peers as well as a refuge for customers in (dire) need of transportation services. He is the man for the job.

Chika was not only super reliable and helpful but also incredibly fun to ride along in the van with. He showed up on time, was very communicative, a safe and fast driver and very helpful with everything when we arrived at the drop off station. Could not recommend more and will definitely use again!

Juan

My experience with Chika from Monks Moves was excellent. It was a simple move from North-West to South-West London which involved a couple of drop-offs. Chika had a great attitude and was proactive throughout. He was punctual and all of my belongings were dealt with great care whilst loading and unloading the van. I felt comfortable with him as an individual and was refreshing to have a good natter with someone so well travelled. Will definitely be reaching out to him/Monks Moves again for my next move.

Ken
Man & Van Services
Excellent, professional service from start to finish. We had to move some furniture to a different location on a short drive and Chika was great, helping me carry down a steep flight of stairs the heavy furniture and waiting until I was done with my business. Definitely recommended and will be using again if I need a trustworthy professional. More...

Olivia
Hiring monks moves (man & van) was the best decision I made. Chika is the best mover I’ve ever hired. . He responded very quickly, he was easy to work with & very professional.
He made moving very easy for me. 100% stress free.
He was careful with all my things & moved everything out of my office, then moved them all back in at the drop off location. He was very helpful, thoughtful & pleasant. I’ll highly recommend him any time, any day.
Thanks Chika.
