“Just like to say thank you to you and your team for the first class service and extremely helpful and willing approach. It made what had been the most stressful time of my life bearable.”
Mr & Mrs Gaskin (Faversham to Deal) July 2015
“Hi Louisa, Pete, Rob and all at Castles, May I take this opportunity to say some words of thanks and good work on your part for the excellent removal service that you all do. It is really wonderful to deal with people who love what they do as a vocation. From first calling Pete and his prompt visit for a quote, the ongoing family spirit and levels of service were outstanding. The quote was amazing for the quality that was delivered. It made what could have otherwise been a stressful few days completely enjoyable and hassle free. I concerned that I may not be able afford professional removers but they made things possible…thanks.
I never felt that I was just a customer but a personality that they could meet and get to know. Meeting Louisa in the office was great, and having a friendly chat along the way makes a huge difference. What a nice family.
The guys doing the removal were great also and everything went smoothly and efficiently. The boxes and personal effects were all handled with the greatest of care. The advice on how to pack correctly was a big help.
Thanks again everyone and hope we chat again soon…..kindest regards. If I have a house warming I hope that you can all come along”

Hi Peter, Just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the guys for making my furniture removal, especially the hot tub, to Bulgaria a nice smooth, quick process.
With so much to organise it was great to be able to hand this aspect of the process over to you and the packaging/labelled boxes you prepared have been a massive help this end.
All the very best and again, thank you all.”

“Dear Peter. I write to thank you for all your help with regards to my move from Sandgate to Canterbury. Courteous, careful and cheerful, entirely trustworthy, nothing was to much trouble.
Of all my many moves this proved by far the least stressful. The removal men are a credit to the firm.”
Canon Dilnot (Sandgate to Canterbury) Aug 2014
“Dear Peter, I’m emailing to thank you for the excellent service you and your team provided.
Claire and I were delighted with your team, they were very careful to cover the floors and stairs, handled all our furniture with great care and were very polite and patient with us despite the very hot weather!
We had nothing damaged, no scuffs to the walls, everything was done on time and you even removed the packaging after we had unpacked.
On top of this you were very competitively priced.
We’re not planning on moving again any time soon, but I wouldn’t call anybody else and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your company.”
Ben & Claire Pollard (Hawking -Store-Folkestone) July 2014
“Hi Peter. Thank you for a very professional service with respect to shipping my personal effects to Thailand today.
Your staff carried out the work very efficiently, wasting no time and taking care both with the packing and checking what was to be included / excluded. I had not expected the packing to be done so quickly (3 days start to finish). Also your estimate of what would go in a 20 foot container was far better than mine. It all went in with a small amount of space to spare.”
Mr G Ford (new Romney to Thailand) June 2014

“Our firm had a storage problem with archived files because by law we have to retain them for a number of years. It is vitally important that the files are kept securely and that we have ready access to them from time to time. Castles offered us that solution and by taking over our business document storage and destruction they have saved us so much space, time and more importantly – money. Peter and his team have done an excellent job in sorting out our archive requirements and have provided a very efficient retrieval service and all this is within a mile of our business.
It was a major project to move the files to the new location and remove further files for destruction but the service we received from peter and his team was very professional.
We also use Castles for secure destruction of confidential waste. The sacks are generally delivered on the same day as we request them and again we are provided with a very quick and efficient collection service.
The service offered by Castles has at all times been exemplary and has exceeded expectations. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.”

They were the best packers I have ever come across and did the job efficiently and with a smile at all times. I would happily recommend them to everyone and will certainly use your company should I ever move again, Many thanks again.”

Mr & Mrs Grover (Acol to Westbrooke) June 2012
“Dear Peter. Just wanted you to know how thrilled I was with your service I received from your company, from the packing up, to the delivery four weeks later.
They say that moving is one of the most stressful things we can do, I’ve done it and it has been stressful, but your company made it a breeze. From the lovely Louisa who in the office made me feel I was never a pain and dealt with all my queries, to the wonderfull band of men who packed all my belongings with no grumble.
The delivery four weeks later was effortless for me, not for the men, who walked miles backwards and forwards for the whole day, with yet again politeness, nothing being too much for them.
Thank you all, I am singing your praises to all and sundry and will recommend you wholeheartedly.”

“We moved office location in January and Castles were efficient, fast, and friendly”.
Lorraine Birch (Local office Move) Jan 2012
“I just wanted to share a really positive experience with a local business who advertise on the forum.
I had built up a fair quantity of confidential papers that my own small shredder could not cope with. I rang Castles in Deal who gave me several options one of which was to drive over there with my papers and watch while they chucked it through their monster of a machine, and parted company with a mere £5 for the privilege. I also paid a further £5 for a shredding bag and seal which can take up to 17kg and I can take as long as I like to fill it and can then take it over there again but this time i have already paid, or for a fee they can collect it, and provide me with a certificate of destruction.
A had felt there was a real hole in the market for this service at good value for householders who don’t generate as much confidential waste as businesses. The last firm I used a year ago had a minimum charge of £60 so I had to club together with others to make it worthwhile.
Castles have filled it and got it right, and I just wanted to let everyone know!”
Claire Jones Dec 2011

They managed with skill to get furniture places we’d had only hoped would be able to go in our house. And the packing service was also to such a high standard. They were all polite and helpful, always checking if unsure of where we wanted something to go. You have a great team of men, just wanted you to know. That we thought your service was worth every penny. It made our move as smooth as one can possibly be.”
