Student removals in Thornbury: a room's worth
How it works round here.
Thornbury, South Gloucestershire • Student Removals
Thornbury sits within the BS35 postcode area, a good few miles from the university halls at Frenchay and the Frenchay Campus of the University of the West of England, which many local students travel to and from at the end of term.
Van & Driver is getting ready to launch Student Removals in Thornbury, helping with the kind of move that doesn't need a full-size lorry: boxes and suitcases, a desk and chair, a bike, maybe a bit of small furniture picked up from a room in a shared house. The idea is simple — a small van and someone to help with the carrying, at a fixed price agreed before the day, so there's no guessing what the final bill will look like. Once the service is live, it will cover moves within Thornbury itself as well as trips out to nearby places such as Bradley Stoke, Yate, and Frampton Cotterell and Winterbourne, all within striking distance for a single load of student belongings. We're not yet able to take bookings in Thornbury, but we're working on bringing local partner drivers on board so that students moving in or out of the town this time next year will have a straightforward, fixed-price way of doing it. Keep an eye on this page for updates on when Student Removals opens here.
