Marketplace delivery in Botley: seller to door
How it works round here.
Botley, Hampshire • Marketplace Delivery
Botley sits across the SO32 and SO30 postcode districts, with Hedge End station less than a mile and a half from the centre and Whiteley just over two miles further on.
If you've spotted a sofa, a fridge or a set of garden chairs for sale nearby, Van & Driver's Marketplace Delivery is built for exactly this: a driver collects the item from the seller, brings it to your door in Botley, and helps carry it in, so you're not left wrestling a wardrobe up the stairs on your own.
The service covers the everyday bulky buys people pick up second-hand — sofas and armchairs, appliances, garden furniture, bikes and gym kit — whether the seller is round the corner or over in Hedge End or Whiteley. Prices are fixed before you book, so you know the full cost of getting your item home whether you need a single item carried or a full van load moved, with no surprises added on for the driver's time or the distance travelled.
Botley's location, tucked between Hedge End's retail parks and the wider Southampton area, means plenty of marketplace sellers are within easy reach, and Van & Driver takes care of the collection and delivery so you don't need to borrow a van, fold down seats, or ask a friend with a roof rack for a favour.

Do I need to be at the collection?+
No. Give the seller’s address and contact in the notes; pay the seller yourself before the driver arrives.

Can I get a van and driver today in Botley?+
Yes, if you book by 3pm and a driver is free: the earliest arrival is the hour after next. After 3pm, the earliest is 1pm tomorrow. The price is the same any day.
Will two people come?+
