For the things that are too much for your car
A man-and-van enquiry can suit a partial home move, a studio load or items going between family homes. Count boxes and bags, list furniture separately and give dimensions for the largest pieces.
Include every stop in the route. If some belongings are going to another address, explain which items are delivered where so the job can be assessed as a whole.
Plan man and van at the Oswestry address
For man and van involving Oswestry, give the full SY11 address and the exact entrance. Use Oswestry, Shropshire and the complete SY11 address; distinguish the premises from a broad Welsh-border destination or similarly named road or organisation. Identify the precise town-centre, residential, business or rural entrance, including one-way streets, signed limits, gates, surfaces and a lawful vehicle position.
Check Shropshire Council's interactive roadworks map, current closures and any required temporary restriction process and all current street signs close to the booked date. A postcode does not establish permission, vehicle suitability or a safe handover point; agree private access with the property contact and arrange any required council permission separately.
- For man and van, prepare: list your main items; tell us the lifting help; share both postcodes.
- Name the actual Oswestry entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
The right help depends on the items
The service name does not tell you how many movers are needed. A heavy sofa on an upper floor can require more handling than several ground-floor boxes. Tell us if you need all loading and unloading done for you.
Describe stairs, lifts and the distance to a suitable loading space at both ends. For a Oswestry town-centre collection, check access with the property contact before agreeing a time.
Make the collection window workable
If a seller, landlord or building manager controls access, confirm when they can let the mover in. Put any fixed handover time in your enquiry. Weekend and short-notice requests can be discussed, with availability confirmed individually.
Agree the vehicle, crew, included lifting, price basis and any waiting-time or extra-stop terms before booking. Sending the form starts your quote request; it does not reserve a van.
Your Oswestry enquiry checklist
- For man and van, have these details ready: list your main items; tell us the lifting help; share both postcodes.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. SY11 is a location reference, not the whole service area.
- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
