Man with a van

Short term van hire in North Hertfordshire and surrounding areas, ideal for house removals or transporting furniture between properties.

Call us on 01462 678076

Finding a van to hire for a couple of hours can be a daunting and time-consuming process, not to mention expensive. From researching companies to worrying about having to drive the van yourself, you often find yourself hiring a van for a whole day, even if you only need it short-term (for example, transporting furniture between two properties or doing a tip run). Fortunately, our expanded House Services now include a Man with a Van... so you'll get the van plus a member of our team to support you!


Our services are widely known across North Hertfordshire, covering the Hospice's catchment areas including Stevenage, Letchworth, Baldock, Royston, Biggleswade and all the villages in between. You can rest assured knowing that our friendly and professional team will help you find the right vehicle for your needs, arranging the service at a time that suits you. What's more, you'll be directly helping Garden House Hospice Care continue providing specialist care to local families.


Man with a Van is charged at an hourly rate. If you live outside of our catchment area, please still get in touch and we'll be happy to come to an agreement with you.

Frequently asked questions

Do you charge for a man with a van?

Yes, we charge for this service at an hourly rate. This will depend on how long the van is needed for, which vehicle is required and your location. Waste charges may also be added to your quote if the recycling/disposing of items is required, however this will be discussed with you and agreed in advance.

Do I need to be present for the man with a van?

While it's preferable for you to be present to ensure all items are accurately removed and transported, we understand this may not be possible and can arrange them without your presence under certain circumstances. Please discuss this with our team in advance to make the necessary arrangements.

Where is my man with a van?

Our drivers will always strive to be with you within your scheduled time slot, but sometimes things are out of our control, such as traffic or a delay at a previous job. They will always try to give you a call if they are running late, and will do their best to make up time on their way to you minimise delays (while of course remaining safe!).


If you require any further assistance, please call us on 01462 678076 (option 1).

We recycle a significant portion of the waste we collect, ensuring materials are processed appropriately to minimise environmental impact.
