Day-to-day help moving heavy or awkward objects. Treadmills upstairs, furniture rearranged between rooms, single items shifted that one person can't manage alone.
If additional time is needed, it's charged at the hourly rate.

Our customer needed eight storage bags packed with clothes and shoes moved from Spencers Wood & Swallowfield to Abbey. Jamal collected everything in 45 minutes, then drove the Transit across to the dropoff in another 45 minutes. The bags were already packed and ready to go, which made the load straightforward, everything went in efficiently and arrived in Abbey without fuss.
Bash picked up a mattress and a couple of checked bags from Bishopsworth and drove them into Central Bristol, a tight 55-minute run across the city. The load took 30 minutes, and everything made it safely to the new place without fuss. Sometimes a single item or a small set of essentials is all that's needed, and the job came together cleanly.
“10/10 guy. Would recommend him at any time.”

Bash moved our customer's furniture from Ashley to Bedminster across Bristol in a single trip. The load included a couple of chests, chairs, a table, mirrors, photo frames, a bike, plants, and a decent rug, the kind of mixed household job where careful packing matters. Three hours of loading into the Transit, then 45 minutes across town to the new place. Everything arrived in good order.
“Friendly, punctual and efficient - whole process was really smooth!”

Our customer needed an 8ft by 10ft storage unit cleared out in Lydney West & Aylburton, and Gurdat showed up with a tail-lift Luton van and a helper to manage the job properly. Two hours of loading got all the furniture and boxes secured, then the four-and-a-half-hour drive to Cwmllynfell and Ystalyfera. The customer was well happy with how it came together, a straightforward clear-out that needed the right equipment and muscle to get it done right.

Our customer needed some household appliances moved from Osney & St Thomas to Greenwich Creekside, and Sukhwinder got everything loaded and on the road in just 30 minutes. The driver made the longer haul across in just over four hours, with all the items arriving safely at the family house. A straightforward job where the focus was on getting the pieces into the van securely and making sure the drive went smoothly, no fuss, no complications.
Our customer needed a move from Cherrywood to Upton, and Craig loaded everything in just over an hour before making the four-hour drive. The booking included suitcases, a desk, computer monitors, gym weights, and bedding, a mixed household load that required careful packing and secure placement in the Transit. The customer even asked about riding along, which Craig was able to arrange. Everything arrived in Upton ready to unpack.
Our customer needed boxes and bags moved from Herne Hill to Fortune Green, along with a clothes rail. Isaac loaded everything into the Transit in about an hour, then drove across London to the new place in Fortune Green. The main thing was fitting the clothes rail safely alongside the boxes, not a huge volume, but the odd-shaped item needed careful placement. The whole job took just over three hours from start to finish.
Gym equipment is the single most common booking in this service. Customers buy a treadmill or rowing machine online. The delivery driver leaves it at the front door. Then comes the realisation that an 80kg box can't go up a flight of stairs alone. A 30 to 45 minute booking with a helper solves it.
The same applies to multi-gyms, weight stacks and exercise bikes. Heavier units sometimes need to be partially disassembled to get through doorways or up tight stairwells. The driver assesses on arrival and breaks the unit down only where the build allows it. Most equipment is designed to come apart for transport and reassemble in place.
Bring the original manual or assembly guide if you have it. Most drivers can work without one, but for unusual or older units the documentation saves time on the build-up at the destination.
Decorating projects often hit a point where the furniture has to move and the homeowner can't shift it alone. A sofa, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers, a heavy bed frame. The work can't start until they're out of the way, and they're heavy enough that DIY usually involves at least one bumped corner or scratched floor.
A two-person team handles this in 30 to 60 minutes. Items lifted from the room, placed somewhere out of the way like the hallway or another room or a temporary garage spot, and returned when the work is done. The driver brings blankets and floor protection so the temporary parking spot doesn't take damage either.
For shorter jobs the same booking can cover both legs. Move out, decorate, move back, all on the same hourly rate billed for actual time used. Longer projects work better as two separate bookings.
Plenty of help-needed jobs aren't about transport at all. A BBQ that needs carrying from the front of the house to the back garden through a side path. A washing machine being repositioned in a utility room after plumbing work. A garage clear-out where heavy items need shifting around to make space. A storage unit visit where what you're storing is heavier than what you can lift alone.
The booking works the same way. A driver and a helper arrive in the van with their kit, do the lift or the shift, and bill the time it takes. The job often comes in under an hour, and the minimum booking time still applies as set by each driver.
For one-person jobs that just need muscle rather than the two-person team, mention this when booking. Some drivers will take the job solo at a lower total cost if the item is manageable for one person with the right kit.
It uses the standard hourly model. A medium van runs from £40/hr, a large van from £40/hr. Add a helper for around £15-20/hr on top, depending on the driver. Most single-object jobs come in well under £100 total.
Yes. This is one of the most common bookings in this service. A two-person team handles a typical home treadmill in 30 to 45 minutes including any partial disassembly needed to get through doorways.
Either works. If the item is staying at the same address and just needs to move within the home, the booking still uses the hourly rate but most of the time is spent at one place. The van turns up because that's where the kit is.
Bulky item moves are about transporting one large piece from address A to address B. This service is about the muscle and the kit to handle a heavy or awkward object, whether it goes anywhere or stays put. The two overlap and the right choice depends on whether you need transport or just help.
Yes. A driver and helper coming to your address and loading your van for you is a fine use of this booking. Same applies to unloading at the other end if you've driven the items yourself.
Mention it when booking. Some drivers will take a one-person muscle job at the standard hourly rate without an extra helper charge.
A few things sit outside the day-to-day scope. Very heavy items requiring specialist equipment, very high-value items needing dedicated specialist handling, and anything the driver decides on arrival isn't safe to move with the available kit. For ordinary household items, the answer is yes.
20% deposit on confirmation. Balance settled with the driver on the day, billed on the actual time the job takes.
Day-to-day moving help runs UK-wide through the same driver network as the rest of the platform. Most drivers handle these jobs regularly because they’re some of the most reliable bookings on the system. Short jobs, clear scope, finished in well under a working day.
Gym equipment moves are the highest-volume booking type in this category. Treadmills account for most of those, with multi-gyms and rowing machines making up much of the rest. Every major city has drivers experienced with the typical model ranges and the access challenges of British housing stock. Victorian staircases and narrow Edwardian hallways are common, along with the awkward modern flat layouts where doorway angles get tight.
Furniture repositioning during decoration is the second-most-common booking. Spring and early summer see the volume peak as customers tackle redecoration projects. Sofas and wardrobes are the most-moved items, with bed frames and chests of drawers close behind. Most jobs come in under an hour.
Single-item muscle jobs cover the long tail of awkward objects that need a second pair of hands. Garage clear-outs, storage unit visits, BBQs carried through tight side paths, washing machines repositioned after plumbing work. These bookings are short and predictable, and most drivers welcome them as efficient hours.
Pricing is the same as any other man and van booking. Hourly rate for the van and driver, optional helper rate on top, billed for the time the job actually takes. No minimum routes. Weekend and evening jobs run at the same rate.
