Weekend Surcharge
Saturday and Sunday bookings incur a £30 weekend surcharge to cover additional staffing and scheduling costs.
Access & Crew Requirements
Certain locations or access conditions — such as city centre areas, student accommodation buildings, permit zones, or streets with restricted parking — may require a 2-man team for safety and legal parking reasons.
What Affects Your Man & Van Quote
When it comes to house clearance, we believe pricing should be simple, fair, and transparent. That’s why we base every quote on the size of the job, the type of items to be cleared, and disposal requirements. No hourly charges or hidden extras — just one clear fixed price agreed before we begin.
Distance
No extra charges within 10 miles of LE9. Beyond this, a fixed travel fee (£30–£60) may apply. Always confirmed upfront.
Waiting
£65/hr, billed in 30-min increments after a reasonable grace period.
Extra Stops
£20 per additional address.
Access Issues
Long carries (20m+), stairs, or restricted parking may add to the cost/time. We’ll always discuss this before starting.
