How it works

  1. 1

    Describe the job

    A sentence or two and a photo if you like. It takes a minute and costs nothing.

  2. 2

    Compare bids

    Verified local removal companies send a price, a message and when they can come. Chat before you choose.

  3. 3

    Book and pay safely

    Pay through HelloPros when you book. The pro is paid once you confirm the job is done.

What to check before hiring

  • Goods-in-transit insurance and public liability cover
  • Whether the price is per hour with a minimum, or fixed for the job
  • How many people come, and whether stairs or parking add time

What we check: Every removal company has shown photo ID and public liability insurance of at least £1m. The profile also shows Goods in transit insurance when the pro has it.

Man and van: questions people ask

How is a man and van priced?

Most charge by the hour with a minimum of one or two hours, or a fixed price for a single item or a short move. Your bids on HelloPros show the price and what it covers, so you can compare like for like.

Does the driver help with loading?

Yes. The driver loads and unloads as standard. If you have heavy or awkward items, say so when you post the job so pros can send two people.

Can I travel in the van?

Many drivers allow one passenger if the van has a spare seat. Ask the pro in the chat before you book.

What about parking?

Tell the pro about restrictions at both ends. Permits, meters or a long carry from the van can add time, and it is cheaper to plan for them than to pay waiting time.
