Van with driver prices in Bournemouth: how they're worked out
How it works round here.
Bournemouth, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole • Prices
Bournemouth spreads across postcode districts from BH9 in the north down to BH1 by the seafront, with two universities, Talbot Campus and the Arts University, sitting close together near the centre.
Anyone moving student belongings, house contents or a single sofa across this stretch, or further out towards Poole, Ferndown or Merley, can book a van and driver through Van & Driver at a fixed price agreed before the job starts.
The price is built from three parts: a call-out charge based on the size of van needed, a charge for the space your items take up in it, and the miles covered from pick-up to drop-off. A single item collected and dropped within Bournemouth costs £55, a half van load £139, and a full van load £249. Prices step up slightly for trips further afield: to Poole a full van load is £249, to Ferndown £249, and to Merley £249, reflecting the extra distance rather than any change in how the job is priced. Whether you're clearing a flat near Richmond Gardens Shopping Centre, moving out of student housing by Talbot Campus, or shifting furniture into storage near Yeomans Way, the price you're quoted for the size of load and the route is the price you pay.
