Your van and driver in Lewisham

How it works, what it costs and who turns up.

01

What a van and driver is

A van, a driver, a fixed price – and no bidding.

A van and driver is the middle ground between hiring a van yourself and booking a removals firm.

02

Van and driver versus man and van

Same idea, better promise.

"Man and van" is what people search for; it usually means one person with their own van, quoted on the phone, paid in cash, and you hope they turn up.

03

What fits in each van

We measure in wheelie bins. One bin's worth is about eight bin bags.

Picture a wheelie bin. One bin's worth is a few boxes and bags. Two is a fridge or a washing machine with room to spare. Four is a room.

04

How the price works

Fixed prices, the same everywhere.

A move's price depends on how much is moving, not where you live. A wheelie bin's worth is £69 anywhere in England; a full load is £349 in Salisbury, Sheffield or Southend.

05

Who turns up

Checked, insured, rated – and paid properly.

Every driver is an independent partner who has shown us their licence, their hire-and-reward insurance, goods-in-transit and public liability cover, and their right to work, before they're offered a single job.

06

Lifting, stairs and awkward things

Two people when the job needs them, at no extra cost.

We decide from what you're moving: a sofa, a wardrobe, a fridge, or a medium load and up gets two people, and that's already in the price. There's nothing to choose and nothing extra to pay.

07

Booking, changing and cancelling

Two minutes to book. Change it yourself up to 48 hours before.

Book online for today (until 3pm; after that, tomorrow from 1pm) or any day up to about six months ahead, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.

08

Same day? Yes, until 3pm.

Today, if you book by 3pm.

Book before 3pm and you can pick today: the earliest one-hour arrival is the hour after next (book at 10:20 and it's 12 to 1), if a partner's free. After 3pm, the earliest is 1pm tomorrow.

Good to know.

About Lewisham

Lewisham at a glance

Within the SE6, SE13 and SE23 postcode districts, moves tend to weave between busy shopping stops, student addresses and storage sites, with Catford Bridge station only 0.3 miles from the centre acting as a handy reference point for timing collections and keys handovers. Many bookings are short hops between flats and houses across these districts, or quick pick‑ups of single items such as a sofa, a bed, a wardrobe or a washing machine from friends, sellers or storage. Flat‑pack runs and larger furniture often come from Lewisham Shopping Centre 1 mile away, Bell Green Retail Park 1.2 miles and New Cross Gate Retail Park 2.1 miles, where parking and access planning can make the difference on the day. Term‑time work connects student homes with Surrey House & Surrey Annexe 1.8 miles, the Department of Computing 1.9 miles and Goldsmiths, University of London Campus 1.9 miles, so careful loading for desks, screens and boxes is common. Loads frequently go into or out of Access Self Storage Catford 0.9 miles, Big Yellow Self Storage 1.7 miles and Shurgard Self Storage 2.7 miles, with inventory lists and unit codes kept to hand to speed things up. For clear‑outs and decluttering, tip runs head to Southwark Reuse and Recycling Centre 2.8 miles, whether it is old furniture, garden waste or general clutter, and combining a storage drop with a recycling run is a regular request. Day to day, people moving around the town typically book for house and flat moves within the town itself and to and from the towns nearby, single‑item transport, student start‑ and end‑of‑term moves, collections from the retail parks, and shuttling belongings between homes and storage, all planned around local access, lift sizes and the best time window for each address.

Lewisham had 300,764 people at the 2021 Census. Furniture and flat-pack from Lewisham Shopping Centre, Bell Green Retail Park and New Cross Gate Retail Park is a common single-item run. The council's nearest recycling centre is Southwark Reuse and Recycling Centre, 2.8 miles away; a tip run with us goes to a licensed recycling centre, with the disposal in the price.
