Man and van, by the hour

For anything short of a full property move. You know the job better than a form does, so nothing is worked out for you — choose the van, the crew and the hours, and the price follows.

What is included

  • The van and the driver
  • Blankets, straps and a trolley
  • Fuel and local mileage
  • £50,000 goods-in-transit cover
  • WhatsApp contact with the crew on the day
  • Extra hours at the same rate if it runs over

By the hour, and the hours are honest

A van, a driver and — if you want one — a helper, at a rate you can do the arithmetic on. You choose the van, the crew and the hours, and the price follows. Local jobs bill the time on site; further out, the drive goes on the quote as its own line before you book, so the hours you buy are the hours you get with us. Add another pair of hands at £50 an hour if the carry is long or you are short on time. It suits single rooms, small flats, student moves and anything you would otherwise be hiring a van and bribing friends for.

Our promise

The price we quote is the price you pay.

And the van that turns up is the one your list needs.

Questions people actually ask

What does a man and van cost?
You choose the van, the crew and the hours, and the rate follows from that. A Transit with a driver and one mover for two hours is £170 on our own card. There is a two-hour minimum.
What if the job runs over?
Extra time is charged at the same hourly rate. There is no penalty for guessing low, and nothing changes without you being told first.
Do you charge for stairs?
Not on the hourly service. You are buying time, and stairs use it — which is why we ask about floors even though there is no separate charge.
Which van should I pick?
If you are between two, the bigger one usually costs less than a second trip. The page tells you what each size typically takes.
Can I help carry to save money?
Yes, and plenty of people do. It will not change the hourly rate, but it can reduce the hours — which is the part you pay for.
How many people do I get?
You choose: a driver on his own, a driver and a helper, or more. Each extra pair of hands is £50 an hour, and you see it on the price before you book.
Do you charge me for traffic?
Under 30 minutes each way from our base, no — you pay for time on site. Further out, the round trip is added as travel time at 70% of one driver's rate, as its own line, before you book. Traffic on the day does not change a price you have already been given.
