We have been using Oak Tree services for approximately 6 months now and they have provided an outstanding service.

You have been more than accommodating when we have required specialised jobs to be completed i.e providing hoist drivers for our daily operation. Oak Tree temps that work on our NRM site have for the most been great and fitted in well with our warehouse staff.

Head Office great as they are super efficient with booking jobs at short notice as required on occasion. I would highly recommend Oak Tree devanning to any company.

GINA ADAMS, Distributions Manager Farmlands Co-operative Society Ltd.

We have been using Oak Tree devanning since 2013 for unloading of sea containers from our international suppliers.

They provide a high level of service and have a can do attitude at a very competitive rate. Their staff have an understanding of our requirements and ensure our high standards are met.

I would highly recommend Oak Tree Devanning to any prospective business for their devanning services.

ANDREW TALBERT, Warehouse Manager D&A Marketing Ltd

Oak Tree staff  are on time and they do what needs to be done. We continue to use Oak Tree for our unloading, and I would recommend Oak Tree to others needing devanning. They are very easy to deal with, and the team works well.

ABDUL, Warehouse Manager, Robert Pascoe Carriers Ltd

I have been dealing with Oaktree for many years now and have always found them very good to deal with. They provide a very good business model with easy to use online booking systems and the same consistent staff, creating little to no disruption, fitting in like part of the team.
