Do you do man with a van hire by the hour in Pontefract?+
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 Pontefract 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.

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 Pontefract type into Google, answered.
Can you dismantle a bed in Pontefract?+

Yes, on every job, at no extra cost. Your things are strapped in before the van moves.
Can you move just one thing in Pontefract?+
Yes. A single item within Pontefract is from £55, an armchair or a washing machine, say; a sofa on its own is a little more, by size.

Can I give the driver a gate code or directions?+
