Mark Godman set up Gentleman & A Van in 2004 following a bad experience moving flats within London. Despite using one of the market leading removals companies at the time, he was left feeling dissatisfied and it got him thinking that there must be a better way to help Londoners move home.
The vision was to build a removal business that would treat your home and possessions as if they were their own, as a Gentleman would, hence ‘Gentleman & A Van’ was born. The company has grown from strength to strength since 2004 and it has now established itself as one of London’s leading and most trusted removal and storage companies.
Gentleman & A Van has established its excellent reputation through providing unrivalled levels of service, combined with a personal approach, to every customer. From the simplest job involving just a couple of items to be moved , to a full house move, we believe we provide our customers with a first class and cost effective solution to their moving and storage needs.
In 2020 Gentleman & A Van became part of the Master Removers Group, a group of moving companies with a pooled expertise that stretches around the globe. It’s run by people who work in removals and understand the industry inside out. The group came together because of a shared desire to push customer service levels higher and higher, so that clients always get a service that exceeds their expectations.
There are now nine companies in the group, which employs more than 400 people and has depots across the country. Because the members of the group share their resources and know-how, costs can be kept to a minimum even when clients want to move well away from their immediate area. We’re able to diminish travelling expenses and sometimes do away with them altogether. The Master Removers Group is in a robust financial state. We’re investing in new vehicles and a range of sizes and our moving equipment is the very latest. We take pride in meeting environmental targets. We have 12 warehouses, located throughout the UK, offering high-quality, good-value storage for both short- and long-term users.
