How it works
Three steps and a rate that holds
Send the load and both postcodes
A photo, a list or a marketplace link is enough. We size the van and decide whether your Dagenham job needs one mover or two before quoting an hour.
Get the hourly rate in writing
Rate, minimum hours, London Borough of Barking and Dagenham bay reality and any charges confirmed by message. No deposit, no doorstep re-quote.
We load, drive and carry it in
Booked goods lift and loading bay, trolley all the way in. Blankets, straps and a trolley come as standard, and the clock stops when the last item is inside.
Why us
Why Dagenham books our vans and books them again
The hourly rate is the whole rate
£45 for one mover, £65 for two, VAT and fuel inside it. Nothing is added for blankets, straps, the trolley or the drive between your two Dagenham addresses.
Billed in half hours, not rounded up
After the two-hour minimum we charge in 30-minute blocks. A job that runs fifteen minutes over costs fifteen minutes, not a whole extra hour.
Drivers who lift, insured and DBS-checked
Every van carries goods-in-transit and public liability cover, and the driver is part of the crew rather than someone who watches you carry a sofa.
Lift and loading-bay slots in Dagenham blocks
Managed blocks want the goods lift booked and the bay reserved. Tell us the building at quote stage and we work to the slot, with floor protection and a trolley, so nothing is carried past a concierge who was not expecting us.

Hourly rates include VAT, fuel, blankets, straps, a trolley and the driver's lifting help. Charging starts when the crew arrives at your collection address and stops when the last item is inside — travel between the two addresses is inside the hourly rate, and Congestion Charge and ULEZ are quoted up front, never added afterwards. Two-hour minimum.
- Parking outside your RM10 door is checked against London Borough of Barking and Dagenham bay hours before the slot — a legal space is a shorter carry and a shorter bill.
- ULEZ is quoted with the hourly rate and never appears as an extra at the end.
- Access here: Wide roads, driveways and easy access; the Heathway has short loading bays.

Questions
Man with a van in Dagenham answered
A man with a van in Dagenham, RM10, is £45 an hour including VAT with a two-hour minimum on Barking and Dagenham bookings, with The Ford Dagenham plant a few streets away, or £65 an hour for two movers. A single item collection and delivery is £69 and a studio or 1-bed flat move starts at £220 in this 24% flats neighbourhood, with 76% of Dagenham homes being houses. The rate is confirmed in writing before the van sets off on RM10 jobs.
Two hours, and it starts when the crew arrives at your RM10 collection address on Barking and Dagenham bookings. If the job takes two hours and ten minutes you pay for two and a half — we bill in 30-minute blocks after the minimum rather than rounding a whole hour in Dagenham — and The Ford Dagenham plant a few streets away, with this being a short walk from Dagenham Heathway (District).
Yes. Lifting is the job, not an extra. One mover handles boxes, mattresses, flat-pack and most single items with a trolley; for a wardrobe, a sofa bed or anything going above the first floor in Dagenham, book two movers — it is usually cheaper because the hours drop on RM10 jobs — and 24% of RM10 homes being privately rented, with 24% of homes here being flats.
Often, yes. We hold same-day and next-day slots across Barking and Dagenham and can usually get a van to Dagenham within a few hours for a single item or a small load on the streets near The Ford Dagenham plant — and 76% of Dagenham homes being houses, with 15,032 households on this patch. Weekend mornings and month-ends book out first, so message early if your date is fixed across RM10.
Constantly. Send the listing or the collection address with your RM10 delivery address and we quote a fixed £75 for a straightforward local pickup on the streets near The Ford Dagenham plant, with Barking and Dagenham parking rules in play. We can pay the seller on collection by prior arrangement on RM10 jobs, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, and the item is blanket-wrapped for the drive.
A Luton with a tail lift is standard: roughly the contents of a studio or a comfortable 1-bed — a double bed, a three-seater sofa, a fridge freezer, a washing machine, a wardrobe and around twenty boxes around Dagenham Heathway (District), with 44% owner-occupation locally — and this being a short walk from Dagenham Heathway (District). For a 2-bed we quote two movers and either a bigger load or two runs in Dagenham.
We check London Borough of Barking and Dagenham restriction hours and bay types for both addresses before your slot and tell you if a suspension is worth the fee in Dagenham, with 44% owner-occupation locally — and 76% of Dagenham homes being houses. Where nothing legal is close, we agree the carry distance with you in advance so the hourly estimate is honest around Dagenham Heathway (District), with this being a short walk from Dagenham Heathway (District).
Yes — every street in RM10, RM9 and the rest of Barking and Dagenham on Barking and Dagenham bookings. Local homes are 24% flats and access here means booked goods lift and loading bay, trolley all the way in, both of which we plan around before quoting an hourly job on the Dagenham rounds — and Barking and Dagenham parking rules in play, with 24% one-person households here.
