Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 14 June 2013
Avoid Anyvan.  It really is a false economy.
Their process of "accreditation" of the companies they host on their site is flawed and there are serious loopholes in the way that the site operates.   AnyVan take money as a cut of transactions without even lifting a finger.  They simply provide apparatus for these "deals" and contracts between individuals and traders/movers to go ahead. 

There's no additional security to this system than simply answering an advert in a newspaper or placing an ad on Gumtree.   All reputations seem to be based on a particularly spurious "feedback" system, in which someone moving their entire home to another town is given equal weight to someone who just needs something moved up the road.  Just because someone has positive feedback is meaningless in the long run as it's not calibrated to the kind of job you're actually advertising and need doing.

Anyvan themselves are not interested when things go wrong - they simply act as agents to put you in touch with movers and take a cut of the transaction via PayPal.
If the movers are unreliable or careless, you're left trying to chase them for money or compensation.  Most of them insist on cash payments (I have no idea how tax is therefore paid on these jobs either incidentally), and few are trained in any recognisable way past being physically able to lift things.  

It might seem a great way to move house cheaply, but the stress and expense incurred by using this service actually came to more than simply hiring a professional removal company to do things.  

I am completely unable to recommend Anyvan as a company anyone should do business with at all for removals.  Avoid, literally at all costs.

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 30 November 2012
Just found out today that a negative review I posted about a transport company that I used via Anyvan has been removed "because the company complained about it".

The company I used has a lot of positive reviews, but I didn't get that level of service ... but the site is fatally flawed if negative reviews are deleted!

Just be aware.

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 20 October 2012
Well worth using this company as not only did it save me money but also a lot of time. I had a bunch of cartons transported from the east end to the south and for a fraction of the cost everyone else was charging.
And all this done in about 2 hours! Really amazing!

I will definitely use Any Van for my corporate and private moves.

Recommend them for sure!

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 19 October 2012
I used Anyvan twice and both of the times the guys did a great job. The minute I posted the jobs imidiately I had so many bids. I have to say seeing people bidding for my job was quite fun and exciting. In the end the guys I worked with were very polite and helpful and amazingly on time. I recommend Anyvan to anyone who needs to move things around. They are professionals!

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 19 October 2012
I was moving house from Cornwall to Hampshire. I got a few quotes from local removal companies in the south west but a colleague of mine suggested I used ANYVAN.com. I gave it a shot and to be honest it was a fairly simple process and I ended up making a saving of around 40% on what I would have paid the local companies. People may prefer to use who they know but if you're making a long distance move then I'd definitely recommend this site

Anyvan saved me over £100 to move a few items across London - very easy to use the site and the removal company were great. Extremely helpful and cheery. Would definitely recommend!

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 19 October 2012
We used this company to move an EBay item from Edinburgh to Manchester 2 weeks and they were great. Efficient service where you can post your requirement and then companies start to quote you. Moved it for 45 quid!! Not bad for a chest of drawers. Thanks Bg Vans and Anyvan itself.

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 13 August 2012
Their service should be minus indeed. We were messed around by this company called LK Logistics Kent from AnyVan site. They confirmed to pick up at 11:00 -12:00 on 13 August 2012, we called them twice between 8:00-9:00am, and were told they would call us back. We waited till 11:30am with no call back. Then we called again and were told it would be at 14:00 with no explanation. I wanted them to confirm that the van will definitely come at 14:00, otherwise we want refund and compensation. The guy called Gareth immediately said he is happy to give us refund as he doesn't like the way I spoke to him. He then explained that the vehicle has a puncture and it is out of his control. I said at least you could inform us earlier rather than we kept chasing you. He said he was going to think a few minutes if he wanted to come.

A few mintues later(around 12:00), my husband called and he said he has not sent the driver out. First he said the driver is in Kent. When my husband questioned that how can a driver travel in 2 hours from Kent to Preston? Then he said his driver is in Liverpool. He said he won't come because we haven't paid in advance. (Later AnyVan confirmed that we only need to pay half at pick up, half at delivery). Excuses one after another.

We then put an review of this LK Logistics Kent on ANYVAN, and Gareth who is the founder of LK Logistics Kent called us liers. And he denied he ever said the vehicle has a puncture. Also AnyVan removed our review. When I spoke to AnyVan about our refund and review, the gentleman on the phone insisted that there is another side of story, what Gareth from LK Logistics Kent said there is a puncture could be true. It could be true even when the boss Gareth denied he ever said that? How can they contradict to each other so much? So don't rely on those reviews from AnyVan site blindly. The reaosn we chose LK Logistcs Kent is becuase of its positive reviews. We now realise that the negative reviews have been removed!!!!!

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 9 July 2012
Had a very good experience with anyvan. I was nervous at first as I hadn't used a delivery service like this before. There customer service was great and the job happened hassle free for fractions of what I was quoted by other courier companies. Very very pleased.

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 27 June 2012
The sign of a good company is how they respond when things go wrong. Anyvan are one of the worst examples refusing to refund my money when the courier failed to collect. Try elsewhere.

    Anyvan, 28 June 2012:

    Hi Steve – We have issued a full refund to your ANYVAN account as confirmed via email on the Tuesday 26th June. There appears to have been a lot of confusion over the information that was provided by you to the driver regarding the collection point and location of the item resulting in the driver being unable to locate the correct person. As the driver attended the pick up and was unable to collect the item due to the information you provided being incorrect, you would not qualify for a refund of the deposit paid. However having considered your case we have issued you a full credit to your ANYVAN account in reflection of the funds paid by you that can be used at any time. Should you need any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us, Kind regards, ANYVAN

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 31 May 2012

Unfortunately a very disappointing service with Anyvan given their lack of customer service. They were only interested in getting their fees,get a deposit (which was 20% of what the moving man was going to charge) rather than offering a helpful and secure service - under which a deposit could be refunded if there was miscommunication between the vendor and the customer.

I would instead recommend

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 17 September 2011

Tried to use this to pick up some work moving items around London for money and all I can say is it is a waste of time.

Stay away. You’ve got more chance of winning the lottery than you have winning a bid to move something on this website!

    The whole reason behind Anyvan to offer cheap rates. You were charging through the roof. No wonder you didn’t have any bids accepted. The Anyvan team

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 27 April 2011

We wanted a cheap and effective delivery service to courier some furniture over to our son at university in London and after receiving some ludicrous quotes discovered anyvan who by ingeniously utilizing empty vans making one way trips up and down the country can offer faboulous savings and help save the economy .... they get a 5 star thumbs up from us and our son was delighted with the new furnishings as well

Review of Anyvan - Get Multiple Quotes from 24 March 2011

I run an up and coming furniture company in Chelsea and hence have to deal with a lot of collections/deliveries, pretty much on a daily basis. We use Anyvan for most of these jobs, and will continue to do so - it's a spectacular service.

The site's easy to use, and we've found, very reliable - something very important to us considering we are dealing with customer satisfaction.

More importantly we are able to pass the FANTASTIC savings directly on to our clients, (something especially important given the rising fuel prices, and the escalating cost to deliver furniture nowadays)...

It definitely gives us a bit of a head start against other companies in what is a very competitive market, plus, nice to know we're doing a bit for this poor planet of ours....!

Keep up the good work Anyvan!!

Excellent service. Cheap prices because you can communicate with small companies who don't have high overheads. I have had very very good experiences, must be because all the suppliers are rated on feedback.
