Absolutely! VAN SIZE ESTIMATOR is designed to cater to both personal and commercial moves.

The VAN SIZE ESTIMATOR is designed to provide an approximate estimate of the van size needed. However, it is always recommended to consult a professional moving service for a more accurate assessment.

The Van Size Estimator includes various Van Sizes we offer, ranging from Small vans to Luton Van, to cater to a wide range of transportation needs.

While the VAN SIZE ESTIMATOR can accommodate a variety of items, it may not accurately estimate the space required for oddly-shaped or exceptionally large items. It is recommended to consult a moving professional in such cases.

If you order one helper, it means that the driver will load and unload the van.
If you order 2 men it means that driver and helper will do all loading.
Please consider ordering two helpers if some of the items you transport are too heavy or too large to carry, or there are more than 2 floors without a lift.
Please note that when ordering one helper and there are large or heavy objects our staff has the right to refuse to carry with the client for the safety reason of the customer and our staff.
When you order one helper sometime we may send 2 people, but only one helper you ordered will do the loading according to the order, unless you want to order an additional helper.
Customers are not allowed to help with carry heave or bulky items with helpers due to health and safety of the insurance policy.
Please remember that when you choose 2 men, then your move will goes smoothly and will take less time.

If you need 2 vans then you need to place 2 individual orders.
With one van you can have up to 2 men to help.

The booking price includes one full load of requested van size (from point A to B or A - B - C - D - E…), if more than one load of full van is required, then for each additional load we charge an additional fee (equivalent to one hour on top of the price) plus distance and time if the move takes longer.

If the order exceeds the ordered time, we charge fees in 30-minute blocks, however, whether we can stay longer depends on how much time we have to reach the next client. Therefore, we ask you to estimate the loading and unloading time as accurately as possible and do not underestimate the time needed for moving.

Remember to settle your payment before unloading the van, because late payments will delay unloading, which can increase the total working time you pay for. Working time is counted from the arrival of the driver/the start of the move to the end of unloading/the end of work.
