Man with a van in Chard: what it costs
How it works round here.
Chard, Somerset • Man and Van
Chard sits in the TA20 postcode area, four miles from Ilminster and within easy reach of Axminster and Crewkerne, making it a natural base for local moves that spill across the Somerset and Devon border.
Whether you're clearing a flat near East Street, shifting furniture across town, or dropping items at a licensed recycling centre, a man with a van can cover the job without the hassle of hiring your own vehicle.
Van & Driver's Man with a Van service brings one or two people to do the lifting, with blankets and straps included to protect sofas, beds, wardrobes and appliances on the way. It's also built for the smaller, awkward jobs that a full removal firm might overlook: a single wardrobe, a run of garden waste, a boxload of odds and ends after a DIY project, or a tip run when the recycling centre needs a booked slot. Every trip is priced as a fixed fee before you commit, so there's no meter running and no surprises at the other end, whether you're moving within Chard itself or heading out to Ilminster, Axminster or Crewkerne. You choose single item, half van or full van cover depending on the size of the load, then let the driver handle the loading, the driving and the unloading at the far end.

Do you cover Ilminster, Axminster and Crewkerne too?+

How much is a man and van in Chard?+
A man and a van for one item within Chard is £55, a small load £69, a medium load £139 and a full load £349. Fixed when you book.
Do you do man with a van hire by the hour in Chard?+
No. We price by the job, not the hour: by how much there is and the miles, fixed when you book, so it doesn’t go up if loading takes longer. Within Chard that’s £55 for one item and £69 for a small load.
Does a man and van include help carrying?+
Yes. The driver loads and unloads with you. For heavy or bulky items such as sofas, wardrobes and fridge freezers, choose two people when you book.

Yes: single items from £70, loads from £99 (Mini) to £519 (full load), and house clearances from £599. Disposal at a licensed recycling centre is included, with a waste transfer note, and there's no charge for the distance.
Will two people come?+
When the job needs them (a sofa, a wardrobe, a fridge, or a medium load and up) two people come, and that's already in the price. We decide it from what you're moving; there's nothing to choose or pay extra for.
Is the price fixed?+
Yes. You see the whole price before you book and that's what you pay: no hourly rate, and nothing added on the day for stairs, waiting or a heavy sofa, unless what you're moving changes.
People ask
What people in Chard type into Google, answered.
Can you dismantle a bed in Chard?+
Taking furniture apart isn't something we price for. Put it in the dismantling notes on your booking page (say the wardrobe needs Allen keys, or the bed's already down) so the driver comes ready. Ask us on WhatsApp.
Do you bring blankets and straps?+
Yes, on every job, at no extra cost. Your things are strapped in before the van moves.
Can you move just one thing in Chard?+
Yes. A single item within Chard is from £55, an armchair or a washing machine, say; a sofa on its own is a little more, by size.
Do you go outside Chard?+
Yes, anywhere in England; the price includes the miles. A single item from Chard to Ilminster starts at £55.
Can I give the driver a gate code or directions?+
Yes. Add them to the access notes on your booking page. Only your driver sees them, on the day.
Can I book a man and van for tomorrow in Chard?+
Yes, if a partner's free: you can book today until 3pm or any day after, and the days you can pick are the days someone can do it.
