Your van and driver in Basildon

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.

The whole of “What a van and driver is”

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.

The whole of “Van and driver versus man and van”

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.

The whole of “What fits in each van”

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.

The whole of “How the price works”

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.

The whole of “Who turns up”

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.

Booking, changing and cancelling

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

Basildon at a glance

A large Essex town with a 2021 Census population of 115935, it covers postcode districts SS14, SS15, SS16 and SS13 and looks both to London as its nearest main town and to a close-knit ring of Essex neighbours for day-to-day moves. By road you can be in Billericay in 5.5 miles (13 minutes), Wickford in 5.9 miles (13 minutes), Stanford-le-Hope in 6 miles (11 minutes), Thundersley and South Benfleet in 7.2 miles (15 minutes), Runwell in 7.3 miles (16 minutes), East Tilbury in 8.2 miles (18 minutes), Chadwell St Mary in 8.9 miles (17 minutes), Rayleigh in 8.9 miles (17 minutes), Brentwood in 8.9 miles (20 minutes) and Canvey Island in 10.5 miles (21 minutes). Laindon station is 0.7 miles from the centre, useful if you are coordinating a move around trains or collecting people and boxes at short notice. The town also serves smaller places nearby, with Noak Hill 1.6 miles away, Bulphan 3.5 miles and West Horndon 4.1 miles, so moves often bridge between these and the larger suburbs. Local errands frequently revolve around retail and storage: Pipps Hill Retail Park is 0.8 miles, Eastgate Shopping Centre 1 mile and Mayflower Retail Park 2.2 miles, with flat-pack and furniture collected and brought home the same day. Loads go into and out of self storage at Shurgard Self-Storage 0.8 miles, Safestore 0.9 miles and Storage King 1.5 miles, and tip runs of old furniture, garden waste and clutter head to Pitsea Recycling Centre 3 miles from the centre. Most bookings are house and flat moves to and from the towns nearby, flat moves within the town itself, and single items such as a sofa, a bed, a wardrobe or a washing machine, with London runs when needed.

Basildon had 115,935 people at the 2021 Census. Furniture and flat-pack from Pipps Hill Retail Park, Eastgate Shopping Centre and Mayflower Retail Park is a common single-item run. The council's nearest recycling centre is Pitsea Recycling Centre, 3.0 miles away; a tip run with us goes to a licensed recycling centre, with the disposal in the price.
