About Us
ESV Removals Ltd is a family run Brighton and Sussex removals company known for combining practical moving expertise with a highly personal service. Founded and led by Peter Hawes, the business has built a strong reputation for reliable house moves, flat moves, long distance relocations, business relocations, storage runs and furniture handling across Sussex and throughout the UK. Customers deal directly with Peter rather than a call centre, giving the company a more hands on and accountable approach from first enquiry to final unload.
What sets ESV Removals apart is its balance of professionalism and flexibility. The company operates multiple van sizes, including Luton capacity for larger home moves and smaller vehicle options for tighter access jobs, allowing the team to match the right vehicle and crew to each move. ESV Removals is fully insured with £20,000 Goods in Transit cover per van and £5 million Public Liability insurance, and has earned hundreds of five star Google reviews alongside strong ratings across multiple review platforms. The business is also recognised for its careful approach to furniture protection, clear communication, honest pricing and willingness to take on everything from local Brighton moves to complex nationwide relocations.
Alongside its moving services, ESV Removals reflects a modern independent business model, with a paperless booking process, reusable moving boxes, and a focus on more sustainable operations including the use of Esso Ethos fuel where possible. With a growing brand presence across Brighton, Hove and Sussex, ESV Removals continues to position itself as a trusted, customer focused removals company built on reputation, direct service and local knowledge.
