Hatfield at a glance
Hatfield's postcode districts, AL10 and AL9, stretch from the University of Hertfordshire campus out towards Welham Green, with the Galleria retail park and the town's own railway station both sitting close to the centre. It's a town shaped by students, commuters and shoppers moving things around, whether that's a load from the Galleria, a delivery near the university, or a run out towards Welwyn Garden City just a few miles east. Van & Driver is opening in Hatfield soon, bringing a marketplace where you'll be able to book a van with a driver at a fixed price rather than negotiate rates on the day. The idea is straightforward: tell us what needs moving and where, and a local partner driver takes care of the move, whether that's a single item, a half van load, or a full house removal. Once live, the service here will cover the sort of moves that come up often in a university town close to bigger neighbours like St Albans and London Colney — student moves at the end of term, furniture delivered from the retail parks, tip runs to licensed recycling centres, and next-day van hire when something needs shifting quickly. Storage moves and commercial courier work will also be part of what's on offer, alongside the everyday man-with-a-van moves that most households need at some point. We'll confirm coverage and let you know as soon as booking opens for Hatfield.
Hatfield had 41,561 people at the 2021 Census. Furniture and flat-pack from The Galleria, Oldings Corner Retail Park and Howard Centre is a common single-item run. The council's nearest recycling centre is Welwyn Garden City Recycling Centre, 3.3 miles away; a tip run with us goes to a licensed recycling centre, with the disposal in the price.
