Edenmore Avenue, Raheny, Dublin 5, Dublin, Ireland
Brilliant service! Very quick reply when I emailed them, someone rang me then after I agreed with the price they were charging and said somebody else would ring me with regards pick up which they did and they collected the same day. I was really impressed with them.
Great experience with e-Van.
Booked in a short time frame and job was able to be done. The lads were very helpful and did a great job. Would recommend.
I booked their service to transport some moving boxes, computer chair, and two bicycles from Dublin to Kerry. Everything went smoothly, and I was very pleased with the experience. I would definitely recommend them.
Karl and his colleague were on time, very professional, quick and efficient. We expected the moving process to take place over two or so hours but they did it in less than one! They were also very accommodating and capable of handling all the clunky and awkward-to-carry stuff. I highly recommend them if you're moving, great value for money as well!
I had a great experience with man-van during my recent move. They were punctual, professional, and made the whole process incredibly smooth. The movers were friendly and handled my belongings with care, and the mini truck was just the right size for everything I needed to transport. The pricing was fair and transparent, with no hidden fees. Overall, it was a stress-free experience and I would definitely recommend Man-Van to anyone looking for a reliable moving company.
Great service who take good care of your things! Evan's team have helped us with both moving house and moving a piano. They were really professional, good communication, had all the right equipment and moved things really quickly from A to B. Highly recommend them. Robert and his colleague moved the piano so carefully and had all the proper equipment to winch it up and safely down a ramp into the truck. They had all the coverings and safety things to ensure it arrived perfectly to our house. We're very grateful!
First time using the service and I was very impressed. Simple process to contact and get a quote. Very competitive pricing Driver contacted me the night before to confirm the time. Arrived as promised and was more than helpful with the job. Seamless and professional. Would highly recommend. I did not catch the name of the driver but he was an absolute gentleman.
I emailed the company on 22/8 for a moving on 23th and they responded immediately. Very good service, friendly and helpful staff.

Hi John. Myself and my colleage have gone through our records in detail, and this is NOT a job that we did. In fact, we haven't done any moves from Co Kerry to Co Cork in the last 16 months. We did provide a quotes for some moves, but nothing went ahead. If you did have a move done from Killarney to Ballincollig, it was not done by my company. Please remove this review. If you think I am mistaken, please phone me.
Terrible service.
I booked 2 men with a van for a home move in Dublin.
The men were late, then they purposely took a considerable amount of time to load the van, only carrying light boxes one at a time while listening to a football match.
Then they told me that because "I had asked them if they could put the big furniture in the van first", there was not enough space in the van for all my belongings.
I helped them to unload to make things quicker and I was quicker than them even though I am a small woman.
Once they emptied the van, I realised that there were two large sideboard cabinets in the van from a previous client.
Not only did they not inform me of this, but they blamed me for not being able to empty my apartment.
They charged me extra time which should not have been needed and they left me like that, with my apartment full of stuff that I have to empty all by myself.
It's an absolute disgrace, they have no principles whatsoever.
Avoid at all cost.
After I posted this review, they posted that they wanted my name in order to contact the driver but I never heard back.

Hi Ann
I'm sorry you feel that way about the service we provided.
I appreciate that several factors contributed to your evaluation and I accept it, and I apologise for the fact that this was your experience. However, if you were not happy with the service, I would have appreciated if you gave us a call to discuss it at the time instead of writing a bad review afterwards. Maybe we could have agreed to something you would have been happy with.
Regarding the movers being late, I'm sorry for any inconvenience that caused, and I realise that it creates a bad impression from the start. But sometimes it’s unavoidable, such as being delayed by an earlier customer. I do ask the drivers to always let the next customer know if they have been delayed.
You are correct that there should not have been anything else in the van. There never usually would be, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, there was. However, the movers did discuss this with you and the discounted the price, which included not charging you for disconnecting / un-plumbing your dishwasher & washing machine, which you were expecting to pay extra for. But Ajay waived that fee and applied an additional discount, totalling a €65 discount from what would have been owed. You agreed to this as compensation for the cabinet taking up some of your space in the van. You were also not charged extra for the steps, which would normally incur an extra charge.
Regarding the use of the space in the van, the guys said you actually instructed them piece by piece which item you wanted put into the van next and they felt like that was the way you wanted it done. Perhaps they should have told you that it would be best to just let them work away, in order make the best use of the space, but they did what you asked in an effort not to upset you.
Regarding what was left in your apartment, they said there was a significant amount remaining and that it would have required a 2nd van load anyway, which the guys were prepared to do, but you decided against that.
Also, they said that you did not actually have a lot of the remaining stuff packed and ready to be moved. There were lots of items still on shelves. You would need to have had all of these small items packed into either boxes or bags in advance, for them to be moved at a reasonable speed.
Regarding the charge for extra time, I can assure you that our movers never deliberately work slowly. I don’t approve of them listening to a football match while working and I can see why you would find that unprofessional. However, it was on his phone, in his pocket, for him to hear the commentary, so it did not affect the speed at which he was working. They moved boxes of various weights and did not aim for the lightest. Perhaps you believe they could have carried more than one box at a time, but it was not the case. They were large boxes, and there was a considerable distance between your apartment and where the van had to be parked, and there were steps down and up again, so it was not possible to use their trolley, as would normally be the case. And remember, everything, including the furniture, had to be carried via this walkway and steps from your home to the van. Having a longer than usual distance between the van and the front door usually means it takes more than the basic time. It is the reason why we very clearly specify that there is a time limit at the basic price, and 45 minutes extra seems like a reasonable amount of extra time considering the circumstances.
Unloading would almost always much faster than loading, i.e. even if you hadn’t helped. Loading involves moving stuff from a large space to a smaller space, loading everything cautiously and protecting furniture items from each other. Unloading involves moving items from that small space to a big space, so it's a lot quicker, and a lot also depends on the distance between the van and front door.
Regardless of all of this, I'm sorry you didn't feel you got a good service
I booked a service with this company and will definitely be coming back.
I asked for a motorbike to be collected in Dublin and dropped to Meath.
Nothing was an issue, even when I rang and cancelled, and rescheduled for a week later.
Karl thank you very much for everything, highly professional service throughout.
Fantastic service, Robert and his colleague did a fantastic job transporting our antique furniture including a piano. They made sure I was happy with where they placed it in my home and tried different angles etc. Highly recommend.

Hi Tamas. Thanks very much for your review. I'm glad you were happy with the service. I'll let Gary know too.
Absolutely cannot fault head mover Keith & Karl, informative, punctual, courteous & a pleasure to deal with. Was a difficult task to move a large sofa with limited space & 2 flights stairs but they took great care & precision getting it done & to its new owner. Excellent service & low price for their work. Will definitely use again & can't rate them highly enough🙂🙂
