    This was the second time we have used DTT, and once again, they did a fantastic job. They arrived on time, cleared a lot of rubbish from our back garden, as well as three metal filing cabinets from the shed and a tumble drier from the kitchen. They were friendly and polite and extremely hard working. Adrian, the proprietor, made booking and using their service extremely easy. I recommend them to you 100%. Genuine, lovely guys.

    Having contacted Adrian previously and confirmed a price with him, he arrived exactly on time, and together with his assistant, did a fantastic job of clearing a large amount of accumulated unwanted “stuff” from our garage and cellar. They worked tirelessly in extremely hot temperatures and checked at the end if there were any other bits to add. They also moved a heavy filing cabinet as an additional job. They worked in a professional and friendly way and I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone needing either rubbish clearance or furniture removals. We would certainly use Adrian’s services again in the future.

    The job was to relocate my Dad's bedroom / living room plus his office & music equipment from Croydon to Brighton. Dad had not moved in over 30 years so he and I were both quite anxious about it. Right from the start I was glad I called Adrian, and our initial conversation left me feeling confident things would go well. Sure enough, my Dad remarked how impressed he was with Adrian and Anthony when they were loading the van his end, and when they were unloading at my end I saw the care they took with all the items, large or small. We had a few very awkward bits of furniture to get up a narrow flight of stairs and into a tight spot upstairs: no problem. Great guys, top service, highly recommended.

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank Adrian and his team at DTT Removals. They were as professional as professional gets, they take the time to explain the procedure and they really do take the stress out of the move. Every bit of furniture was wrapped and looked after. I would recommend to friends and family and every one who is looking for a stress free move. Once again thank you to Adrian and DTT Removals.

    Cannot recommend enough!! Just book them. Adrian is an absolute pleasure to use and both him and his colleague (SO sorry I've forgotten your name!!) were both polite, professional, friendly, and great company to have around on what was a very stressful day through no fault of theirs. We were held up by solicitors so these guys were so understanding and patient, and when we finally got our keys the old owners hadn't moved out yet because they'd been let down by their movers (different company). When the other removal company finally turned up, the comparison of having the two removal companies working side by side was insane. DTT was head and shoulders above and the other company even had the cheek to ask to borrow DTT's equipment?! No idea what the other company was but honestly I'd never use another removal company again. DTT all the way!! Thank you SO much for all your help guys!!

    I've known Adrian and the team at DTT for many years and am more than happy to refer his services to our older client group. It's so important for people moving in to care homes for the first time and their families to be surrounded by professional, courteous and empathatic people. Adrian and all at DTT are that and so much more! Amazing!

    Really pleased with the service from Dash the Trash, booked them for a house move. Adrian is a very approachable, friendly person and has been really responsive with queries I've had. Booking and quotation process was easy and clearly communicated throughout. We were also able to boxes, tape, and bubble wrap from Adrian. Adrian and George were the team on our move day, and they both handled our possessions and furniture with care, and loaded them onto the van securely. Would 100% recommend!

    I used Adrian and his team when I was moving house. I live alone and so I was very stressed about the whole process prior to contacting DTT. Adrian and his team made the whole process a breeze and completely took the edge off. Everything reached my new house in perfect condition and they even put my bed back together on the other side. Couldn’t recommend them enough.

    Adrian helped me with a tricky house move that came during the lockdown. We had to move due to living with a vulnerable person and being a key worker meant I still needed to work. Adrian arranged the removal quickly and the whole house was moved across within a few hours. There were no breakages and a friendly professional service all around. Thanks a lot.

    Adrian and Ben are very personable and very easy to work with. They arrived on time and they worked diligently. They gave an estimate for the work (based on the likely tonnage for commercial waste drop-off) and this was broadly spot on. On a philosophical note, we have all got to figure out a better way of consuming and disposing of "stuff" but until such time, DTT services are much needed and much appreciated. I highly recommend the services of this company.

    Superb removal company. Dash The Trash (Adrian and Ben) offer a really friendly service, very professional & considerate and went way over their expected time due to 2 very difficult beds to dismantle and re-assemble and didn't charge us a penny more. We're absolutely delighted to have found them and have already recommended them as the best local service for removals.

    I wholeheartedly agree with the other 5 star reviews on here. Adrian helped me move a couple of very heavy sofas - he was extremely patient, helpful and friendly throughout, even though this wasn't an easy job. Moreover, his price was extremely competitive compared to the competition. I will most certainly use Dash the Trash again. I used Adrian's company again a couple of weeks ago (October 2018). This time to move a large TV from Norbury to Wallington. There were stairs to negotiate at both addresses. Adrian and his new assistant Ben were both extremely polite, efficient and friendly, just as Adrian was last time. I don't hesitate to recommend them.

    I HIGHLY recommend DTT. Adrian is a lovely hard working man who is not afraid of stairs! He packed up my home and moved me to my new home in one trip. He has a very bubbly and calming personality and brought my stress levels to a minimum! He and his co-worker Chris even moved my furniture around the room for me when I was deciding where it should go. I will certainly be using DTT again. Thank you Adrian and Chris! You are SUPER STARS! :)

    This was copied and pasted by dash the trash as she did not have a google account. I used the man with a van service recently when I had a collection to make at short notice. Adrian was professional and helpful when arranging the service. My item was picked up, loaded on to the van and delivered to my property promptly and efficiently at a very decent price. I was very happy with the service and would recommend it to my friends and family. By Barbara Klein on 13th March 2017
