What changes it

What moves the price

  • Van

    Small van, Transit or Luton. The bigger the load, the bigger the van.

  • Crew

    Driver only or up to three helpers at £20/hr each. More hands means fewer hours.

  • Hours

    2-hour minimum, then 30-minute steps at the hourly rate.

  • Distance

    First 10 journey miles included, then £1.50 a mile.

  • Stairs and parking

    No stair fee, but several floors or a long walk from the van takes longer.

  • Packing

    Unfinished packing and furniture to dismantle are the usual causes of overruns.
