Man & Van Services in Colchester, Essex, UK


When comparing services, keep the following factors in mind. Transit insurance: All man with a van Colchester companies should be covered by goods in transit insurance, which provides protection for the driver against damage to their loads up to a value of £10,000 (sufficient for most deliveries).


Experience: Since it's relatively easy to start a van delivery service, firms can emerge quickly. Ensure you ask about their experience in moving single items and multiple items similar to yours. This is particularly important for fragile goods, where hiring someone with expertise can be beneficial.


Locality: Hiring a firm from a distant location will only increase your costs, whereas finding a driver already making a journey near your desired delivery location can result in significant savings on standard rates.
