The basic differences between a Man with a Van and a Removals Company: Part 1

Moving to a new house or office is actually a very tiresome work that involves a lot of planning and work. So people generally find it difficult to manage it by their own. In this situation a professional man with a van or a removal company could be of great help. But here comes the confusion of which service to choose among a removals company and a man with a van service. So to relieve your stress and tension a little, herein below are some of the differences between these two services which would help you make the right choice.

The packing and cleaning facility:

You may think that only large removals companies offer a packing and cleaning service. But this is also true that some of the good man and van services can also provide all types of boxes and packing materials that you may need for your house or office removals and can also help you do the packing.

Sometimes you may also need the house to be cleaned for the next owners after all your belongings have been packed and moved. This would call for the requirement of a cleaning service company, which can easily be availed through the contacts of your man and van service provider. These services would make sure a full house clean from the windows to the carpets, ensuring everything is ready for the new owner to move straight in.

The vehicle’s size and capacity:

It is true that Removals companies often provide large and spacious Lorries to carry out their removals work in comparison to the vehicles provided by the man and van providers. But these large lorries would only be required if you have a big house with somewhat around six bedrooms as you would probably be able to fit everything into one load. But in case your house is smaller, then a man and van service with one or two small vans, would be just enough for your entire removal work.

The pricing and cost factor:

This is probably one of the most significant factor for anyone who is considering hiring the services of a removal company. It is quite obvious that a removal company will be more expensive than a local man and van service. This is because of the huge overheads of the removals companies as compared to most Van Man services and it has nothing to do the quality of services. Another major cost linked with a removals company is the running and functioning costs of the large Lorries that they use for work, making their service charges even higher.

So the above mentioned points about the man and van Removals Company, describing about the differences would surely help you make an informed decision in the future. To know more about such differences, keep an eye for the next part of this article.
