Man with a Van London to Cardiff

About 150 miles west along the M4 and across the Severn on the Prince of Wales Bridge, which is normally 3 to 3.5 hours depending on the traffic through Newport and out of London. The same driver carries the load the whole way into Wales, with no depot stop.

It is one fixed figure for the whole job, set before you book instead of a meter you watch climb. Drivers run west down the M4 often, so your load can slot onto a trip already going, and that is why the price opens at £83. The rest comes down to how much there is and any lifting.

Over 150 miles a fixed price almost always works out better. An hourly firm keeps the clock going from arrival through the drive to the last box off the van, so a slow M4 costs you. The Porta figure is agreed first and does not shift.

There is, run the same way in reverse. See man with a van Cardiff to London for the eastbound leg back over the Severn, priced the same way.

One heavy item through to a whole flat, the sofas, wardrobes, beds and appliances a courier will not handle. Moves to Cardiff University or Cardiff Met, house moves into the city and marketplace buys all make the trip west.

Yes, the driver works the load with you at each end rather than leaving it to you like a van hire. Mention the heavy pieces, or a flat up several flights, when you quote and the right help is on the van.

Frequently, when a driver is already pointed west. Short-notice and same-day runs down the M4 into Wales come down to who is free, so a quick quote is the quickest way to see live dates.

Right across the city, from the centre and Cardiff Bay to Cathays, Pontcanna, Roath and out to Whitchurch and Llanishen, with pickups anywhere in London first and drop-offs possible in towns along the M4.

Just at the London end. Your pickup may be inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, with the Congestion Charge in the central zone. Cardiff has no charging clean-air zone, and neither does anywhere in Wales, so the Welsh end is clear. Any London charge is inside your fixed price.

Yes, and they are a regular load west. A three-seater fits a Luton van, and the driver steers it through doors and up stairs at each end. Give the size and any awkward access when you quote so the right vehicle turns up.

Fine. A flat-pack wardrobe and a bed frame ride safest broken down a little over 150 miles, and the driver rebuilds them in Cardiff. Send the measurements at quote stage so the van is the right size.

Yes. Empty and secure a washing machine first, and let a fridge freezer stand upright a few hours after the drive before it is switched on. They are two-person items, so note them when you quote. Big appliances also suit our large item courier service.
