A Proud Family Run Business

Stranks Removals has always been a family-run business, built on hard work, integrity, and a genuine commitment to doing things properly. Established in 1941, the company has been shaped over generations, with knowledge, values, and experience passed from father to son.

Today, Stranks is run by David and his son Matthew who continue to uphold the standards the business was founded on. Both take a hands-on approach, ensuring every move meets the high standards Stranks is known for. Their shared belief is simple: treat every customer with care, communicate clearly, and never cut corners.

While the business has grown into one of the largest removals companies in the South East, David and Matthew have kept the personal touch at its heart. Their practical experience – gained on the road, in customers’ homes, and within the warehouse – shapes how the company operates, ensuring every move is handled with professionalism, respect, and genuine care. Honouring the same level of care they would expect for our own belongings. And that is the Stranks ongoing promise and commitment.
