What is not included in a man and van price
| Charge | When it applies |
|---|---|
| Congestion Charge and ULEZ | Paid to your driver on top when either address sits in a charging zone. Shown before you book. |
| Undeclared stairs | Stairs are free to declare in the booking form and are priced in. Flights found on the day can add a charge. |
| Parking permits | Arranged with the council by you where the street requires it. See the parking permit guide. |
| Overrunning the hours | Charged at the same hourly rate you booked. Extra time is added in half hour steps at half the hourly rate, so if a 3 hour booking only needs another 30 minutes you pay £20 on a £40 an hour job, not a whole extra hour you do not need. |
| Packing materials | Supplied by you unless you arrange them with your mover directly. |
Where these Canterbury man and van prices come from
Every number is calculated from completed bookings where the collection or delivery address sits within 25km of Canterbury. We use jobs marked complete and paid, so these are prices customers actually paid, not quotes, not adverts and not a rate card.
Why publish this at all?
Most man and van prices you find are the cheapest rate a company is willing to advertise. Ours are what Canterbury customers paid. Sometimes that is higher than a headline rate elsewhere, and we would rather you know before you book than after the van arrives.
