Marketplace delivery in Portsmouth: seller to door
How it works round here.
Portsmouth, Portsmouth • Marketplace Delivery
Portsmouth is one of the few English cities built almost entirely on an island, with the mainland edge at Hilsea station barely a mile from the centre and Cosham just beyond it.
That geography means marketplace collections often start on the mainland side, in Gosport or Waterlooville, before crossing onto Portsea Island to reach doors in PO1, PO4 or PO5. Van & Driver covers this route for anyone buying a sofa, chair, appliance, garden furniture, bike or bit of gym kit from a private seller: the driver collects from the seller, brings it across to your address, and helps carry it in, so you're not left managing a bulky item on your own or squeezing it into a car.
Booking works the same whether the seller is a few streets away near Victory Retail Park or over in Havant or Gosport, with the price fixed before the van sets off. You can book a Portsmouth marketplace delivery now, with collection and drop-off arranged around the seller's availability and your own address, whether that's near the university, the hospital, or out towards Cosham and beyond.

Do I need to be at the collection?+
No. Give the seller’s address and contact in the notes; pay the seller yourself before the driver arrives.

Yes, if you book by 3pm and a driver is free: the earliest arrival is the hour after next. After 3pm, the earliest is 1pm tomorrow. The price is the same any day.
Will two people come?+
