At DJS Moves, we bring veteran-led expertise and family values to every move in East Grinstead.
This historic town sits at the edge of the Ashdown Forest, combining medieval heritage with modern residential areas and strong business links to Gatwick and London.

Our Removal Services In East Grinstead
Here are our most popular services our local customers use us for:
Home Removals
Moving house in East Grinstead means dealing with everything from narrow medieval streets around the old town to modern estates on the outskirts.
We’ve handled moves from period cottages on High Street where every measurement matters, to family homes in areas like Imberhorne and Blackwell.
Our team knows which roads get congested during rush hour (the A22 and London Road can be challenging) and where parking restrictions apply, so we plan your move around these realities.
Whether you’re downsizing to a retirement flat or moving to one of the larger properties near Saint Hill, we treat your belongings with genuine care.
Office Relocations
East Grinstead’s business community thrives on its proximity to Gatwick Airport and excellent road links to London and the coast.
We’ve relocated offices, retail units, and light industrial operations across town and throughout the surrounding area, always working to keep your downtime minimal.
A weekend move might suit your business better, or perhaps an evening relocation when your customers won’t be disrupted.
We adapt to what works for you rather than forcing you into our schedule.
Student Moves
With universities in Brighton, London, and across the South East, we help students moving between East Grinstead family homes and their term-time accommodation.
Our service removes the usual stress, reasonable pricing, flexible dates around academic calendars, and we don’t expect everything planned weeks in advance.
Moving Abroad
Planning to relocate from East Grinstead to somewhere in Europe? We transport your possessions across the Channel to France, Ireland, Spain, or wherever you’re headed.
Our focus stays on getting your belongings there safely, we handle the logistics of European transport so you can concentrate on the bigger picture of your international move.
Full Packing Service
Some people enjoy packing methodically through each room. Most don’t.
Our packing team uses proper materials and techniques developed over years of moving everything from everyday items to valuable collections.
We can pack your entire house or just tackle the tricky items, perhaps that collection you’ve been worrying about or the kitchen you’ve been dreading.
Storage Solutions
Life doesn’t always align perfectly with moving dates. Our secure storage facilities give you breathing room when you need it, whether that’s a few weeks between completion dates or longer-term storage while you’re working abroad.
Your belongings stay protected in clean, monitored units until you’re ready for them.
Additional Services to Complete Your Move
Post-Move Cleaning
The property might be empty, but it still needs bringing up to scratch before final inspections or handovers. Through our partnered services, we can arrange professional cleaning teams that tackle every room properly, from scrubbing kitchen appliances to sorting carpets and windows, making sure you meet whatever standards are expected.
Garden Maintenance & Clearance
A neglected garden can delay completions or cost you money on your deposit. We work with trusted local contractors who can deal with overgrown hedges, remove garden waste and unwanted items, and bring outdoor spaces back to a presentable state without you having to hire skips or make multiple tip runs.

Customer Testimonials
Here are our latest 5 star reviews from our valued customers:
I honestly cannot recommend DJS enough! As a new company doing rubbish clearance I took a risk asking someone I was unfamiliar with as I know we all worry about fly tipping but I’m so glad I did! Dan went above and beyond to help clear my garden rubbish and waste, took more than I thought was possible for the price I was quoted but he was happy to hang around and make sure he took everything I needed gone and also collected a bed and delivered for me all in one day!
Dan turned up on time and was very polite. Excellent service removing my rubbish and left the area looking neat and tidy. Very reasonable on the price and would 100% recommend!
Prompt, efficient value for money, all these things are what you get plus hard workers committed to surpassing your requirements. We have not seen a removals firm work this hard tirelessly. Daniel and crew get on with it and does the job. Very pleased and will definitely use again.
Great service, communication is excellent including tracking, polite and friendly and respectful of items moved .. thank you
Excellent service. Kept in touch. Would use again.
Dan and his helper Alfie were amazing. I had a nightmare move where my new house purchase didn’t complete on the same day as my house sale. I found myself with all my belongings needing to go into storage over the weekend and then move again on Monday. Dan and Alfie didn’t bat an eyelid when the goods needed to go to a new location last minute. They worked non stop, taking care with my things, late into the evening until the job was done. Hard recommend.
Dan was an absolute star. We had a challenging move from England to Northern Ireland in the middle of storm Floris and he proactively amended his plans as conditions changed (including which ferry to take, and moving our possessions between trucks!) in order to ensure he made the crossing on the scheduled date. He was professional and communicative throughout the process so we always knew what was going on, even when arrival timings were slightly delayed due to circumstances outside anyone's control. We would definitely use his services again, and would highly recommend him to anyone else moving house.
Moving to East Grinstead?
East Grinstead sits at a useful junction between countryside and connectivity. You get the Ashdown Forest practically on your doorstep, proper woodland walks and open heath, while trains to London take under an hour and Gatwick’s a short drive when you need it. That balance attracts a particular type of buyer, people who want access to nature without becoming isolated from work or city life.
The town itself has character that modern developments can’t replicate. High Street features genuine medieval buildings, independent shops that have survived where chains have given up, and a proper market town feel that hasn’t been completely sanitised.
You’ll find everything from cafes and restaurants to practical services, enough that you’re not constantly driving elsewhere for basics. The newer residential areas like Imberhorne and Blackwell offer family homes with gardens and quiet streets, while properties closer to the old town centre give you period features and walking distance to amenities.
Schools factor heavily in family moves here. Imberhorne School and Sackville School both serve secondary age pupils well, while primary options include Saint Peter’s, Blackwell, and several others with decent reputations. The town’s not huge, so catchment areas tend to work in your favour rather than causing the anxiety you get in larger towns.
For work, the commute options matter. East Grinstead station connects you to London Bridge and Victoria, making it viable for those who need to be in town regularly but prefer living somewhere with actual space.
Gatwick’s close enough that airport-related employment becomes realistic, and the town itself supports local businesses across retail, services, and light industry. You’re not forced into long commutes unless you choose them.
The location gives you options for weekends. Ashdown Forest offers walks where you actually feel you’ve left urban areas behind. The South Downs aren’t far when you want bigger hills. Brighton and the coast are accessible without the hassle of living there full-time. It’s that flexibility that makes East Grinstead work for people at different life stages.
