Independent van owners, such as those offering Folkestone man with a van services, are typically more flexible than large courier organizations and will handle a wide variety of loads. You can also specify in advance the level of service you require from your Man With A Van.

Folkestone man with a van services are no exception, with many drivers happy to assist with loading and unloading.


What to Look for in a Man and Van Service


When comparing services, you should always consider the following factors. Goods in transit insurance: All man & van companies should be covered by transit insurance, which protects the drivers against damage to their loads up to a value of £10,000 (sufficient for most deliveries). Experience: Because it's relatively easy to start a Van delivery service, companies can emerge quickly. Ensure that you ask about their experience in moving single items and multiple items similar to yours. Although this may not be a concern for basic items, for fragile goods, it can be beneficial to hire someone with expertise in Furniture delivery.


Folkestone, Kent, UK

Locality: Hiring a firm from a distance will only increase your costs, whereas finding a driver who is already making a journey near your desired delivery can result in significant savings on standard rates. That's why typical Man With A Van services may not always be the best option. Level of service: Depending on what you're moving, you might need a few extra pairs of hands to help shift your items, so it's essential to check ahead with the driver to see whether they'll be able to assist with loading and unloading of your Furniture.
