How it works

Three steps and a rate that holds

  1. Send the load and both postcodes

    A photo, a list or a marketplace link is enough. We size the van and decide whether your Beckton job needs one mover or two before quoting an hour.

  2. Get the hourly rate in writing

    Rate, minimum hours, London Borough of Newham bay reality and any charges confirmed by message. No deposit, no doorstep re-quote.

  3. We load, drive and carry it in

    Van on the driveway, tail lift straight to the door. Blankets, straps and a trolley come as standard, and the clock stops when the last item is inside.

Why us

Why Beckton 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 Beckton 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.

Driveway loading in Beckton

Off-street parking is the cheapest van job in London: the tail lift goes down at your door, appliances go on the trolley, and a two-hour minimum genuinely covers a one-bed's worth of furniture.

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 E6 door is checked against London Borough of Newham 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 estate roads and off-street parking — among the easiest access in east London.
