Your van and driver in Midhurst
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
07
Booking, changing and cancelling
Two minutes to book. Change it yourself up to 48 hours before.
Book online for today (until 3pm; after that, tomorrow from 1pm) or any day up to about six months ahead, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.
08
Same day? Yes, until 3pm.
Today, if you book by 3pm.
Book before 3pm and you can pick today: the earliest one-hour arrival is the hour after next (book at 10:20 and it's 12 to 1), if a partner's free. After 3pm, the earliest is 1pm tomorrow.
About Midhurst
Midhurst at a glance
Midhurst sits within GU29, the postcode that also covers the Household Waste Recycling Site just off Bepton Road, less than half a mile from the town centre, which asks van drivers to book their tip run in advance. This makes Midhurst a slightly fiddly place to shift bulky items yourself, whether you're clearing a flat near the centre or dropping furniture off before a recycling slot. Van & Driver covers the town for van with driver and man and van moves, connecting you with local partner drivers who handle the booking and the driving, at a fixed price agreed before you go. That matters here given the surrounding geography: Midhurst is a market town rather than a city, with Liphook around 6.7 miles off and Haslemere a little further at 7.2 miles, so a good number of moves involve a run out to one of the neighbouring towns rather than a short hop across the high street. Whether you need a single item collected, a half van of boxes moved, or a full van for a house removal, the same fixed-price approach applies, covering everything from student removals and furniture delivery to next-day van hire and commercial courier work. You book the move, a local partner driver takes care of the rest, and the price is settled before the van sets off.
Midhurst had 5,366 people at the 2021 Census. The council's nearest recycling centre is Midhurst Household Waste Recycling Site, 0.3 miles away; a tip run with us goes to a licensed recycling centre, with the disposal in the price.
