Journey and Distance
Collection and delivery locations, expected traffic, route restrictions, additional stops and the likely return journey all influence pricing.
Our London man and van pricing is based on the actual job: the journey, items, access, loading help, time and any special requirements. This guide explains our starting rates and what can affect your final quotation.
The final service level depends on whether you provide loading help, need the driver to assist, or require an additional mover.
These rates are a guide. The final quotation will reflect the full journey, access, item list, expected time and number of people required.
Best when the customer provides enough capable people to load and unload at both addresses.
The driver helps carry, load and unload suitable items as part of the agreed service.
Recommended for heavier furniture, stairs, longer carrying distances and more involved moves.
Fixed quotations are available for suitable sofas, beds, tables, appliances and Marketplace purchases. The final price depends on the item, journey, access and loading assistance required.
Guide prices remain subject to the item list, journey, access, required labour, parking arrangements, waiting time, tolls and specialist requirements. Parking charges, tolls, additional stops, waiting time and material changes to the declared job may affect the final quotation.
Mileage matters, but it is only one part of the job. Loading conditions, item volume, access and required assistance can have a greater impact.
Collection and delivery locations, expected traffic, route restrictions, additional stops and the likely return journey all influence pricing.
The quantity, dimensions, shape and weight of the items determine the van space and handling time required.
Floor levels, stair access, lift size, lift availability and restricted routes through buildings can materially affect the work involved.
Loading bays, permits, paid parking and the distance between the van and the entrance can increase the time needed.
Jobs where the customer loads will cost less than bookings requiring driver assistance or an additional mover.
Timed collections, venue windows, seller delays, building access delays and waiting outside the agreed allowance can affect the final charge.
These costs are not automatically added to every booking. They apply only where the job requires them or where the agreed details change.
Accurate details allow us to quote the correct amount of van space, time and loading support from the beginning.
Where the charge applies, it is included within your agreed quotation rather than added later as a surprise.
These answers explain the guide rates, minimum booking and circumstances that may affect the final quotation.
