What is not included in a man and van price

Charges that sit outside the quoted Chelmsford hourly rate
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.
