Man with a Van Prices in Bradford: How We Quote
No price lists that turn out to exclude the lifting, the fuel or the stairs. We quote a fixed figure for your job, agreed before we set off, with labour and local mileage included. Here's exactly what goes into it.
What sets the price
Every man with a van in Bradford job we take is priced from the same five things:
- Time on the job: loading, driving, unloading. Stairs, long carries and dismantling add time.
- Distance: barely matters within West Yorkshire; becomes the main factor on long distance moves.
- Volume: one load of a long wheelbase van (about 11 m³: a one-bed flat or a lightly furnished two-bed home) or two.
- Access: ground floor with parking outside is quickest; fourth floor, no lift, bay 100m away is slower.
- Extras you choose: packing, or a second drop on the way.
Example jobs and how long they take

| Student room | 1.5–2 hrs | Beds and flat-pack taken apart and rebuilt. |
| Marketplace / store collection in West Yorkshire | 1.5–2.5 hrs | Priced on the total drive. |
| One-bed flat, local | 2–3 hrs | One load, one trip. |
| Two-bed house, local | 3–5 hrs | Usually one load; sometimes two. |
| Three-bed house, local | 5–8 hrs | Two loads, or a larger removals firm for a full house. |
| Long distance (e.g. to London) | Full day | Fixed price incl. fuel and tolls. |

Do you charge by the hour or a fixed price?
We quote a fixed price for the job based on the time, distance and volume involved, so you know the figure before we set off. Multi-drop runs get a fixed price per run, agreed in advance.
Is there a call-out or travel charge?
The drive is priced into the one fixed figure you agree before we set off, rather than added on afterwards. See the areas we cover for the towns in our core area; Burnley and Colne, over the Pennines, are booked as a planned slot, and long distance jobs are quoted the same way.
Is loading and unloading included?
Always. You're booking a driver who lifts, not just a van. Stairs, dismantling and reassembly are included. Upright pianos are moved with notice; mention any other unusually heavy item, such as a safe, with your photos so it can be checked before you book.
Is anything added on the day?
No. The fixed price we quote is the total you pay, with nothing added on the day.
