Not every job needs a full removals firm. A sofa bought from a seller in Shepton, a wardrobe down to a charity shop, a student's worth of boxes up to Bristol, a fridge that needs to get to the tip — that's exactly what a man with a van is for, and it's what we do across Wells and the Mendips week in, week out.
It's £75 an hour for one person or £110 for two, with travel costed fairly from our base and no VAT. You get the van, the blankets, the straps and the lifting included — and a price confirmed before anything moves.
Covering Wells & Shepton Mallet, Glastonbury, Cheddar
Careful with the awkward stuffThink of us as the gap between a mate's estate car and a full removals lorry. Around Wells that means a dresser collected from a Marketplace seller, a bed delivered from a furniture shop, a couple of rooms shifted between flats, an armchair run out to a village, or a garage-load taken to storage. Single item, part-load or small move — you get the Luton van, the kit and the lifting, on one honest hourly rate.
A big slice of the work is collecting things people have bought online. You win the auction or agree the deal, send us the seller's address and a photo of the item, and we collect it, wrap it so it travels without a mark, and bring it to your door. If you can't be there for the handover we'll confirm with a photo. Wells, Shepton, Glastonbury and Cheddar sellers are often only a few miles from the buyer — neither side has the van, and that's where we come in.
Most single-item jobs are done inside the first hour or two at the £75 hourly rate, with travel costed fairly from our base and the figure agreed before we set off. A single sofa, a washing machine, a wardrobe, a bookcase up a flight of stairs — it's the bread and butter. If it's heavy or awkward — a piano, an American fridge, solid oak — tell us and we'll send two people so it's done safely.
Wells to Bristol or Bath is one of our most common small-move runs — a student's room, a first flat, a part-load topping up a bigger move. The hourly model suits these jobs perfectly because there's no minimum-lorry charge: you pay for a van and a person for the actual hours, not for capacity you don't use.
Single items and small loads can often be fitted in the same day, depending on how the diary looks. The honest answer is always a phone call away — ring or WhatsApp 07742 791139 with what and where, and we'll tell you straight what's possible today and what needs to wait for tomorrow.
The price is agreed before we lift a thing — no VAT, no call-out fee, no surprises on the day.
