Frequently asked questions
How much does a man and van service cost?
Costs depend on distance, the size of the load, and whether additional help is required. Local single-item collections often start around £40–£60, while larger multi-room moves or jobs with stairs can cost more. Unlike traditional removal companies, you only pay for the time and space you need. This makes man and van services flexible, affordable, and perfect for quick deliveries, furniture pickups, or moving smaller loads without paying for a full removals team.

What van sizes are available for man and van jobs?
Van sizes range from small panel vans for light loads to medium wheelbase vans for flat or small home moves. For larger furniture or bulky appliances, a Luton van with a tail lift is usually recommended. Choosing the right size ensures items are loaded safely and securely. Drivers can advise you on the best option based on your inventory, saving you time and avoiding unnecessary costs for unused space.

Do man and van drivers help with lifting and carrying?
Yes, most drivers assist with loading and unloading as part of the service. For heavy or awkward items like sofas, washing machines, or wardrobes, a two-man team can be arranged for faster and safer handling. This flexibility is ideal for customers who need extra help moving items into storage units, upstairs apartments, or across multiple floors. It’s a cost-effective solution compared to hiring separate labour.

How is a man and van service different from a removals company?
Man and van services are designed for smaller, flexible jobs where you pay for time and space rather than full removal packages. They’re perfect for single items, student moves, or light home relocations. Removals companies, on the other hand, usually involve larger vehicles, multiple staff, and structured pricing — which can be overkill for small jobs. A man and van is quicker to arrange and often much cheaper for simple moves.

Do private couriers handle fragile or valuable items?
Absolutely. Private couriers are trained to handle delicate items like glass tables, electronics, or antiques with exceptional care. They use protective blankets, straps, and secure van compartments to minimise the risk of movement or damage during transit. Because your item travels alone in a dedicated vehicle, it won’t be handled multiple times like with standard delivery services. You can also provide special instructions, such as requesting extra padding or careful handling for particularly high-value or sentimental goods.

Are private courier services insured?
Yes, goods-in-transit insurance is included as standard, protecting your item from the moment it’s collected until it’s delivered. This ensures that in the unlikely event of damage or loss, you’re fully covered. Private couriers also prioritise safe loading, careful securing, and direct delivery routes to reduce risk during transport. For particularly expensive or irreplaceable items, you can ask about additional coverage or confirm insurance limits to guarantee complete peace of mind.
